The Floofy Foxes of The Solar System Scope is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by King Astro with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, anti-smoking policies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 11.551 billion Astrofolks love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Astrocity. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Astrofolk economy, worth a remarkable 1,990 trillion Solar Systems a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 172,346 Solar Systems, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

There is something rotten in the state of The Solar System Scope, citizens are strongly encouraged to breathe less so as to limit the carbon footprint, the ongoing space elevator construction project has elevated the national debt to all new levels, and the government has pinkie-promised never to use its veto power except in an emergency. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Solar System Scope's national animal is the Planet, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Kitsuneity.

The Solar System Scope is ranked 363^rd in the world and 12^th in the South Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 21,213.42 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
