The Technocracy of United Atle Lamton is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its digital currency, sprawling nuclear power plants, and national health service. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 596 million Lamtonians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Atlonia. The average income tax rate is 66.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Lamtonian economy, worth 66.3 trillion Lamtonian Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 111,163 Lamtonian Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
