The Community of Solarian Society is a small, cultured nation, notable for its public floggings, complete lack of prisons, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 32 million Solarians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 26.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Solarian economy, worth 1.30 trillion Kilocalories a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Cheese Exports, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 40,595 Kilocalories, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Traffic jams are a common sight due to construction work from a massive overhaul of the nation's freeways, agriculture is heavily subsidized by the government, citizens' new superpowers include immortal cells that can't stop replicating, and Rupert Bear is considered to be the most risqué TV programme in Solarian Society. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Solarian Society's national animal is the None, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Solarian Society is ranked 310,632^nd in the world and 43^rd in Nordwrath for Largest Populations, with 32.0 million capita.
