The Pink Flower of Salzcovia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Necchia with an even hand, and notable for its digital currency, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.327 billion Salzcovians 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 Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tanuvio. The average income tax rate is 83.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Salzcovian economy, worth 909 trillion Flowerrencies a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 124,100 Flowerrencies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Brancaland has gifted over nine thousand putrid moose carcasses to Salzcovia as a reminder of their "special relationship", many aides in Necchia's office are known to be serial jaywalkers, Salzcovian diplomacy is by the book, and mountain rescue missions can end with more people lost than found. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Salzcovia's national animal is the Harpy Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Salzcovia is ranked 9,255^th in the world and 431^st in The North Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 13,527.69 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
