The Black Empire of Athatrondeasia is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Darlegius Athatrond with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ritual sacrifices, pith helmet sales, and compulsory vegetarianism. The cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.208 billion Athatrondeasians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, 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 Athatropolis. The average income tax rate is 68.6%.
The frighteningly efficient Athatrondeasian economy, worth a remarkable 1,393 trillion rubledollars 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. 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 136,555 rubledollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.
Foreign lack of enthusiasm for Athatrondeasian nose-flute disco metal is seen as a reasonable casus belli, women who walk into the ladies' changing room are accused of being Peeping Toms, government police forces protect public schools from the threat of protest, and a suspicious number of male students have joined the Ladies' Wrestling League. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Athatrondeasia's national animal is the evil black shadow scarab, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Violetism.
Athatrondeasia is ranked 8,146th in the world and 1st in Hispano Germanic Alliance for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 39,768.95 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
