The Tree-Licking Peoples of Atherha is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Supreme Counselor with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful population of 33.51 billion Atherhans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Perduti. The average income tax rate is 85.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Atherhan economy, worth 282 trillion notes a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 8,417 notes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Arguments about toilet seats being left up or down get surprisingly heated, basic multiplication is all you need to know to have a child, kids looking for shark teeth have become ancient history, and road signs are getting harder to read under layers of knitted woolen cardigans. Crime is totally unknown. Atherha's national animal is the heron, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Atherha is ranked 284,150th in the world and 40th in Scandinavia for Most Stationary, with 4.9041288058 days.
