The Empire of Athlanthean is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Emperor of Mankind with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 4.087 billion Athlantheans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Holy Terra. The average income tax rate is 77.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Athlanths economy, worth 436 trillion Gils a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 106,724 Gils, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.
Military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, Emperor of Mankind's new door-knocking campaign has the sweet taste of success, shopkeepers use microscopes to verify the authenticity of banknotes, and the nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Athlanthean's national animal is the Leviathan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is The Imperial Cult.
Athlanthean is ranked 254,722nd in the world and 272nd in Conch Kingdom for Nicest Citizens, with 1.02 average smiles per day.
