The Grand Malevolence of Attancia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by His Grandest Highest Majesty of the Pope with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, zero percent divorce rate, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 1.784 billion Attancians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Spirituality, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mănkûs. The average income tax rate is 44.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Attancian economy, worth 119 trillion Agelicoes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Soda Sales. Average income is 66,721 Agelicoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

All fantasy fiction has officially been deemed non-canon, government popup ads are springing up like weeds, virtually all of the country's economic activity takes place in Mănkûs, and aides are afraid to ask if His Grandest Highest Majesty of the Pope wants a cup of tea or coffee. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Attancia's national animal is the Dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is The Church of Attancia.

Attancia is ranked 18,363^rd in the world and 11^th in Republic of Conservative Nations for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 2,376.91 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
