The State of Attention is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its complete lack of public education, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 21.877 billion Attentionians enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.

The minute, moralistic, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Law & Order, although Industry is also considered important, while Welfare and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Central Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.4%.

The powerhouse Attentionian economy, worth 991 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 45,332 betales, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 171,342 per year while the poor average 8,344, a ratio of 20.5 to 1.

Voting is voluntary, all tariffs have been abolished, and Attention has designated Central Heights as its capital city. Crime is a problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Attention's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Attention is ranked 18,662nd in the world and 2nd in Nuku Alofa for Most Stationary, with 1,669.35939688708 days.
