The Pink Flower of Salzcovia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Necchia with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, digital currency, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.424 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 84.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Salzcovian economy, worth 908 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 122,375 Flowerrencies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sex-ed is child's play, the government has declared its commitment to multilateralism, soldiers stream their classified military operations live for millions of fans, and war vets look after war animals. 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 16,545^th in the world and 697^th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 311.09 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
