The Tree-Licking Peoples of Atherha

“Pushing for a cleaner, stronger future.”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Tree-Licking Peoples of Atherha is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by The Supreme Counselor with an even hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cheerful population of 33.612 billion Atherhans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Perduti. The average income tax rate is 85.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Atherhan economy, worth 282 trillion notes a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 8,415 notes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Basic multiplication is all you need to know to have a child, kids looking for shark teeth have become ancient history, road signs are getting harder to read under layers of knitted woolen cardigans, and 13-year-old internet trolls are treated as a threat on par with terrorists. Crime is totally unknown. Atherha's national animal is the heron, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Atherha is ranked 112,307^th in the world and 24^th in Scandinavia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 64.43 law-abiding acts per hour.
