The Federation of Salomeia is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ban on automobiles, and irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 753 million Salomeians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yeinika. The average income tax rate is 48.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Salomeian economy, worth 25.7 trillion Saloms a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 34,120 Saloms, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Cosmopolitan citizens ask what their countries can do for them, the government is funding experimental battery technology while the power grid continues to crumble, eight-year-olds can be seen lighting up in public areas, and lending money has become a major liability. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Salomeia's national animal is the crocodile, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Salomeia is ranked 118,672^nd in the world and 11^th in Markion for Most Cultured, scoring 65 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
