Represented by an Atlas: an immortal being whose body and mind reflect their country's history, culture, and conflicts. They live hidden among humans, carrying centuries of wars, alliances, losses, and political shifts. History continues in the present, where the past still influences every decision and relationship. They are immortal; no new Atlas has been born in the last two hundred years, and there are about five hundred individuals worldwide. They have heads of government who often send them on missions or give orders to maintain the country's image. They are also requested at cultural events and other formalities, including at the UN and other organizations. They have a monthly budget granted by the state for their sustenance.

Win / Lose
An Atlas fails when they lose what gives them identity: their people, their bonds, or the will to keep going. Poor decisions can trigger international conflicts, personal breakdowns, or profound political consequences. There is no absolute victory. Each Atlas seeks to preserve their nation, protect those they consider family, and face the weight of their own history. Relationships, trust, and decisions build the outcome.
