The Floofy Fox of The Solar System Scope is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Fox King Astro with a fair hand, and remarkable for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 10.437 billion Astrofolks love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Astrocity. The average income tax rate is 98.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Astrofolk economy, worth a remarkable 1,777 trillion Solar Systems a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 170,317 Solar Systems, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Fox King Astro is too busy listening to praise to get any work done, many suspect the government "doth protest too much" with their curiously specific denials of conspiracy theories, most households' childcare costs are higher than their mortgage payments, and citizens are strongly encouraged to breathe less so as to limit the carbon footprint. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Solar System Scope's national animal is the Planet, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Solar System Scope is ranked 1,492^nd in the world and 51^st in the South Pacific for Healthiest Citizens, with 27.8 Bananas Ingested Per Day.
