The Republic of Soleilland is a gargantuan, genial nation, notable for its unlimited-speed roads, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 10.486 billion Soleillandians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal morass — prioritizes Healthcare, although Environment and Education are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lumisen. The average income tax rate is 76.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Soleillandian economy, worth 502 trillion lire a year, is highly specialized and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 47,960 lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Rural communities are all but disenfranchised as politicians focus all their attention on winning the deciding urban votes, people accuse the government of being in bed with Big Safety, the nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, and an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Soleilland's national animal is the tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Soleilland is ranked 294,491^st in the world and 1,420^th in Europe for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -7.87 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
