The Republic of Solmetria is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Alan with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, soft-spoken computers, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.307 billion Solmetrians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Soliste. The average income tax rate is 79.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Solmetrian economy, worth 804 trillion sol coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 110,101 sol coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are deployed to barren deserts to protect small territorial claims, citizens are exhausted from weekly general elections, when their backs are against the walls Solmetrians look out for gay men, and quiet professionalism has returned to the nation's armed forces. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Solmetria's national animal is the homo sapiens, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Solmetria is ranked 9,486^th in the world and 471^st in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 11,141.21 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
