The State of Atmus is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 11.958 billion Atmusians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 70.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Atmusian economy, worth 211 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Average income is 17,723 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, serial commas clarify the relationship between one's lackeys, the taxpayers, and kinsfolk, and Atmus has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Atmus's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Atmus is ranked 48,105th in the world and 9th in New Mexico for Most Stationary, with 921.18921599408 days.
