The Corporate Utopia of Atamis is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Chancellor Apollo with an even hand, and renowned for its unlimited-speed roads. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.992 billion are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, pro-business government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Education, although Commerce and the Environment are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Haven City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, followed by Information Technology and Tourism.

The booming slave trade is now government-funded, rag-wearing teachers are often mistaken for homeless people, a typical fast food menu item could serve a small army, and government police forces protect public schools from the threat of protest. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is crippling. Atamis's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is Consumerism, and its currency is the Royale.

Atamis is ranked 1,019th in the South Pacific and 35,102nd in the world for Healthiest Citizens, with 5 Standard Bananas Ingested per capita per day.
