The Republic of Solor Observatory is a titanic, efficient nation, renowned for its restrictive gun laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 10.144 billion Solor Observatoryians enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order, Public Transport, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.7%.

The very strong Solor Observatoryian economy, worth 600 trillion baht a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Average income is 59,167 baht, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 231,479 per year while the poor average 10,302, a ratio of 22.5 to 1.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Solor Observatory's national animal is the lion, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Solor Observatory is ranked 130,559^th in the world and 1^st in Sinfulness for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 2,511.12 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
