The Roused Rabble of Agnoth is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by YOU with a fair hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 9.994 billion Agnothi live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, liberal, pro-business, outspoken individuals keep a keen eye out for any attempt to organize such a thing, and ruthlessly crush it. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anywhere and Everywhere. Income tax is unheard of.

The strong Agnotine economy, worth 545 trillion grams of silver a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Pizza Delivery, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 54,570 grams of silver, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 317,319 per year while the poor average 4,438, a ratio of 71.5 to 1.

They say that Agnothi made a dessert and called it peace, college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, sofas are perpetually on sales that Must End Soon, and a common response to government PSAs is "well, DUH, obviously". Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Agnoth's national animal is the Atlantean Prairie Aurochs, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Agnoth is ranked 2,453^rd in the world and 2^nd in Atlantis for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 13,095.59 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
