The Republic of Atropia is the Decisive Action Training Environment’s fictional modern liberal Islamic nation. Though not too modern, or too liberal, you understand. A single family controls the nation and all the government organs that promote order. Sometimes it is represented as a classic dynastic dictatorship, while it is an oligarchy in later settings. They have a high standard of living and are rich thanks to oil revenues and other resources on the Caspian Sea, but their civil liberties are heavily restricted. Outright repression is limited, though censorship and corruption are perennial problems. The driving foreign and domestic issue confronting Atropia in most scenarios I’ve seen is the occupation of the Lower Janga province by neighboring Limaria. That gives American troops many opportunities for creating interesting training scenarios.
