The Kingdom of Ateenia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Ena Kalinka with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, zero percent divorce rate, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 8.699 billion Ateenians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Atha. The average income tax rate is 69.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ateenian economy, worth a remarkable 1,770 trillion Ateenian Crowns 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 large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. 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 an amazing 203,493 Ateenian Crowns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens living in underground cities have developed a healthy green glow, toxic smog is dismissed as the populace just "letting off steam", the government is well known for declaring war on other countries for suspected slights, and government officials sit helplessly as they are labelled 'Pompous Womples' by celebrities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ateenia's national animal is the Polar Bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Vjoldinism.

Ateenia is ranked 8,472^nd in the world and 18^th in Eurth for Lowest Crime Rates, with 98.21 Law-abiding Acts Per Hour.
