The Floofy Foxes of The Solar System Scope is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by King Astro with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and zero percent divorce rate. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 12.829 billion Astrofolks love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Astrocity. The average income tax rate is 98.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Astrofolk economy, worth a remarkable 2,254 trillion Solar Systems a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 175,735 Solar Systems, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Up to 40% of voters can finally read the issues they're deciding on, a new "thought police" branch is being developed, pro-wrestling bouts open with a legal disclaimer insisting that any violence is guaranteed 100% faked, and third world countries are rich in "I Love Astrocity" t-shirts. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Solar System Scope's national animal is the Planet, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Kitsuneity.

The Solar System Scope is ranked 168,317^th in the world and 6,929^th in the South Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -13.78 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
