The Republic of Atcuit is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-working, democratic population of 992 million Atcuitians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fennec. The average income tax rate is 19.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Atcuitian economy, worth 56.5 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 56,924 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

School teachers check the staff room for hidden webcams before complaining about rebellious students, businesses often fire workers in favour of cheaper automatic systems, Jennifer Government is a bestseller, and feuilletons can only be deciphered with a Galliennais dictionary. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Atcuit's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Atcuit is ranked 73,069^th in the world and 97^th in Astoria for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 105.59 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
