The United Sun Republic of Solarampa is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Solar President Martin Tomek with a fair hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, sprawling nuclear power plants, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 9.85 billion Solarampas are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Solar Terra. The average income tax rate is 95.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Solarampan economy, worth a remarkable 1,941 trillion Drenits a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 197,074 Drenits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons, the military's newest anti-tank strategy is throwing a landmine like a frisbee, traumatised refugees have a full bedpan shoved into their hands along with their immigration papers, and government officials sit helplessly as they are labelled 'Pompous Womples' by celebrities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Solarampa's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Secular.

Solarampa is ranked 5,742^nd in the world and 64^th in 10000 Islands for Highest Poor Incomes, with 156,439.18 Standard Monetary Units.
