The Imperium of Agatep is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Francis Parker Jockey with an iron fist, and renowned for its public floggings, free-roaming dinosaurs, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 8.719 billion Agatepians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Education, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ciudad de Ricardo. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Agatepian economy, worth a remarkable 3,628 trillion Larcs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 416,167 Larcs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Requests to "pass the salt" are supported by tank divisions, people can't decide between preserving forests and buying print copies of 'Dogman Versus The Giggler', there's a bright dawn ahead for Agatep, and tabloids coo over Francis Parker Jockey's expected child. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Agatep's national animal is the Camo Green Snake, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Fourth Theory.

Agatep is ranked 289,566^th in the world and 1,462^nd in Europe for Nicest Citizens, with 0.22 average smiles per day.
