The United Colonies of New Atlantico is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Martial Law with a fair hand, and remarkable for its digital currency, flagrant waste-dumping, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless, devout population of 5.184 billion Atlantians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Olympus. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 28.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Atlantian economy, worth a remarkable 1,410 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 272,181 Dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,724,329 per year while the poor average 17,874, a ratio of 96.5 to 1.

From the highest mountain to the deepest cave - one can always count on finding a good cell signal in New Atlantico, libraries have replaced overdue book fines with mandatory mental health assessments, a murderous reputation can revitalise a flagging celebrity career, and people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. New Atlantico's national animal is the Great White Shark, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Protestantism.

New Atlantico is ranked 305,991st in the world and 7,097th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 4.72 law-abiding acts per hour.
