The United Provinces of The Midwestern Atlantic Colonies is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by President Sandra Vornas with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.695 billion Midatlantans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mervais. The average income tax rate is 79.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Midatlantan economy, worth a remarkable 1,054 trillion Atlins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 136,978 Atlins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Attendance of fathers at PTA meetings is at an all-time high, the government loves seeing the little people fight, the latest national park is visited by more sharks than people, and the subway is dead quiet in early afternoons. Crime is totally unknown. The Midwestern Atlantic Colonies's national animal is the Trout, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

The Midwestern Atlantic Colonies is ranked 47,600^th in the world and 2^nd in West Atlantic Organization for Highest Drug Use, scoring 96.2 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
