Soltid

The Republic of Soltid is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, frequent executions, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 207 million Soltidians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 70.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Soltidian economy, worth 10.6 trillion Soltidian Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 51,160 Soltidian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hidden bedroom-cams are installed to catch mothers doing their kids' homework, the regional delicacy of chocolate bombes is deadlier than an unexploded bomb, everyone apparently sends Leader hair-filled lockets, offers to die heroically, and poetic desires to co-parent a child, and popular websites like NationStates are blocked for "national security". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Soltid's national animal is the Soltidian cock, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Soltid is ranked 50,953rd in the world and 1,197th in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 27.11 flags saluted per person per day.
