The Democratic People's Republic of Solvism is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Supreme Leader Karam with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 8.515 billion Solvisians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Septano. The average income tax rate is 67.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Solvisian economy, worth 844 trillion Solvis a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 99,197 Solvis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Shopkeepers use microscopes to verify the authenticity of banknotes, the government burgles the houses of holidaying citizens, biotech companies are fined if their jumbled genetic sequences look too familiar, and preschoolers practice disarming active shooters before naptime. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Solvism's national animal is the Purple-Chested Falcon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Solvism is ranked 53,356^th in the world and 86^th in The Black Hawks for Most Beautiful Environments, with 671.52 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
