The Pink Holy Lucky Christmas of Atsvea is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Santa Claus with an iron fist, and renowned for its aversion to nipples, otherworldly petting zoo, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 16.309 billion Bats 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yggdrassil. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Bat economy, worth an astonishing 14,260 trillion Candy Gold Bars a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is a breathtaking 874,425 Candy Gold Bars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 5,078,041 per year while the poor average 71,346, a ratio of 71.2 to 1.

Citizens finish cleaning up after the annual National Treasure Hunt just in time for the next one, a typical fast food menu item could serve a small army, crackheads chase drug-loaded drones in hopes of a lucky drop, and cutting-edge missile systems are being retrofitted to twin-prop air force biplanes. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Atsvea's national animal is the Bat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Athyism.

Atsvea is ranked 321^st in the world and 4^th in Forest for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 33,831.31 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
