The Dictatorship of Nic Dian Atow is a large, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-working, cynical population of 110 million Dian Atowians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 27.6%.

The very strong Nic Dian Atowian economy, worth 6.60 trillion Diandollars a year, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 60,042 Diandollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

You can't ask the government "you and whose army?" when they declare they're going to rob you, it is now illegal for teens to view any sites except Club Kitten and My Little Donkey, the new 'Who Wants To Be A Politician' election debate auditions are more popular than the debates themselves, and the nation's hospitals are criticized for caring more about profits than patients. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nic Dian Atow's national animal is the Slithery sneaky snake, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nic Dian Atow is ranked 105,741^st in the world and 22^nd in Glass Gallows for Most Developed, scoring 60.2 on the Human Development Index.
