The Free Land of Solora is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by a hivemind of thirty semi-domestic sheep with an even hand, and renowned for its soft-spoken computers, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.057 billion Solorans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Solorelle. The average income tax rate is 93.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Soloran economy, worth 846 trillion lieres a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 119,983 lieres, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Roadside walls are being built and mother nature is paying for it, sharing vacation pictures requires written consent from the entire beach resort, children are often observed making 'sand angels' in bunkers, and the nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Solora's national animal is the sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Solora is ranked 3,654th in the world and 4th in Kantrias for Safest, scoring 136.17 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
