The Astatine of At is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by At with an iron fist, and remarkable for its national health service, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 28.139 billion Ats are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of At. The average income tax rate is 95.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Atian economy, worth a remarkable 5,283 trillion Ats a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 187,780 Ats, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 665,858 per year while the poor average 38,199, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

In life full of care there is no time to stop and stare, in the mighty jungle the lion once again sleeps tonight, in court almost every witness is a hostile witness, and polygraphs are relegated to the dungeon exhibit in castle museums. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. At's national animal is the At, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

At is ranked 9,042^nd in the world and 2^nd in Nicaragua for Largest Populations, with 28.1 billion capita.
