The Lenlyvitian Colony of Terra Voltera is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Queen Kagawi Yuuki with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 14.083 billion Volterans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Quarendus. The average income tax rate is 36.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Terra Volteran economy, worth 518 trillion Voltramarks 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, quite specialized black market in Tourism, Woodchip Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. 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 36,844 Voltramarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is illegal to make racist remarks in public, billions of Voltramarks are being poured into a space program, citizens who don't follow Solism are closely monitored for signs of self-harm, and internet flame wars have been known to cause real-world casualties. Crime is almost non-existent. Terra Voltera's national animal is the Lenlyvalk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Solism.

Terra Voltera is ranked 120,930th in the world and 47th in The Hole To Hide In for Most Stationary, with 292.9025555978 days.
