The Infinitely Blissful Land of Ateelatay is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 919 million are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whoever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Education, and the Environment. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.
The Spanish Whaling Mouse is a protected species, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, parents live in fear of governmental 'child protection' squads, and college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is a problem, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Ateelatay's national animal is the Spanish Whaling Mouse, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Karma.
