The Theocracy of Atse Hashke is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, digital currency, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 1.657 billion Atse Hashkeans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Spirituality, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 59.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Atse Hashkean economy, worth 27.5 trillion Burritoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Soda Sales, and Retail. Average income is 16,600 Burritoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Libraries have replaced overdue book fines with mandatory mental health assessments, mandatory electronic currency is a boon for credit card companies and government surveillance, saying "don't do anything that Leader wouldn't do" doesn't exclude a great deal, and black tea is only available on the black market. Crime is totally unknown. Atse Hashke's national animal is the Coyote, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Atse Hashke is ranked 130,561^st in the world and 5,575^th in The East Pacific for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 548.14 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
