“Take them down in one shot or we're screwed.”

The Holy Empire of Atlaga is a huge, devout nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 420 million are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, pro-business individuals juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Religion & Spirituality. Income tax is unheard of. An almost nonexistent private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.

Mining safety laws are often more expensive than what's being mined, X-Files ratings have hit an all-time low, the government has become increasingly militant, and reporters often lose their jobs over fact-checking errors. Crime is a problem. Atlaga's national animal is the Witherwood, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Bolt.

Atlaga is ranked 968th in the region and 8,997th in the world for Best Weather.
