The Imperial Saiderian Union of Great Solordia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Solordiar Liftoke with an iron fist, and notable for its parental licensing program, aversion to nipples, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 6.854 billion Saiderii 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Liftokia Metropolis. The average income tax rate is 59.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Saideric economy, worth a remarkable 1,303 trillion Saideric Yarons 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 large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Tourism, Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. 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 an impressive 190,197 Saideric Yarons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Many former slaves are finding out there is such a thing as a free lunch, lobster tastes best when it is red, the world is looking a bit more worldly, and the Ministry of Health has reported a sharp increase in the incidence of delayed menopause. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Great Solordia's national animal is the White Peacock, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Saiderism.

Great Solordia is ranked 10,087th in the world and 527th in Osiris for Most Cultured, scoring 118 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
