The Democratic Republic of Solar Sheouls is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 988 million Celestians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Toadsville. The average income tax rate is 18.2%.
The Celestian economy, worth 53.2 trillion Lilypads a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Furniture Restoration, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 53,818 Lilypads, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.
The housing market has collapsed like an overbaked Brancalandian souffle, politicians that report exaggerated crowd sizes for their speeches are dismissed for being delusional, the government's religious works are headed by a New Age guru, and posters on 'Celestian Values' advise against being proud of Solar Sheouls. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Solar Sheouls's national animal is the Housefly, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Solar Sheouls is ranked 232,310th in the world and 2nd in Sunday for Nicest Citizens, with 10.55 average smiles per day.
