The Monastic Community of Mount Athos is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its burgeoning Little Owl population. The compassionate, devout population of 13.5 billion Athonites 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 medium-sized government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, although Defense and Law & Order are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Karyes. The average income tax rate is 30.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Athonite economy, worth 563 trillion Minoan tala a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Pizza Delivery, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 41,746 Minoan tala, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

School plays were recently banned due to concerns of child endangerment, Mount Athos has designated Karyes as its capital city, parties that are too noisy are broken up to prevent disturbing wildlife, and mollycoddled youths run the country. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mount Athos's national animal is the Little Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Mount Athos is ranked 38,264^th in the world and 5^th in Minoa for Nicest Citizens, with 18.66 average smiles per day.
