The Colony of Atrassica is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, notable for its compulsory military service, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 21 billion Atrassicans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 30.7%.

The strong Atrassican economy, worth 932 trillion lire a year, is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 44,427 lire, with the richest citizens earning 5.1 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. Atrassica's national animal is the raven.

Atrassica is ranked 193,785^th in the world and 27^th in Colonies for Nicest Citizens, with 10.55 average smiles per day.
