The Constitutional Monarchy of Amutien is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Revulo with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 12.245 billion Amutienians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Plenlumejo. The average income tax rate is 72.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Amutienian economy, worth a remarkable 1,397 trillion muns a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 114,142 muns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

College athletes are arrested for selling lemonade, the Smalltopian embassy doubles as an electoral campaign headquarters, referenda are held for every conceivable government action, and youth rights demonstrations often end in vicious snowball fights. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Amutien's national animal is the Bakzak, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Amutien is ranked 243,054^th in the world and 4,186^th in the South Pacific for Most Extreme, scoring 11.22 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
