“All shall be washed away in Atom's Glow”

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

The Republic of Atom 8 is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 9.246 billion Atom 8ians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Spirituality, with Law & Order and Defense also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 25.6%.

The very strong Atom 8ian economy, worth 525 trillion Atom's Loves a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 56,827 Atom's Loves, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 160,410 per year while the poor average 16,115, a ratio of 10.0 to 1.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Atom 8's national animal is the Deathclaw, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Atom 8 is ranked 217,994^th in the world and 15^th in Capital Wasteland for Largest Black Market, with 331 billion Standard Monetary Units.
