What is Atropia?

The Great and Liberated People's Free Republic of Atropia and Associated States of Greatness (shortened for your reading pleasure) is the greatest nation on Earth! Don't believe us? Well just ask our friends at the US Army who have been assisting our liberation and SAPA forces for decades.

Okay, but for real though...

Okay, okay, okay... don't be a Blue Falcon and rat us out to the United Nations just yet.  For those of you that are uninitiated, Atropia started as a fake "training" nation along with several others such as Gorgas and Donovia.  When US Soldiers go to play war games or do training of any sort they generally are either fighting with, for, or against the Atropians.  Especially when new, soldiers are said to have "deployed" to Atropia since they haven't had the opportunity to deploy to a real country.  I mean, if all those little shits on Instagram can fake travel, why can't we fake deploy right?  So... it's a joke people.

In 2026 this project transitioned to a place for the owner of Atropia to finally come out from behind the veil of being the Supreme leader to show off his artwork. James is a traveling photojournalist who has covered events and people in over a dozen countries and for various outlets. Want to learn more about him? Click here.

Isn't this offensive to real soldiers?

No.  This is a thing experienced by real soldiers.  Not only that, but the Atropia Brand is owned and operated by real soldiers and other service members.  Atropia is designed to create a sense of camaraderie over the absolutely dumb bullshit that is government training.  Almost every young soldier has a story about their time in Atropia or a similar fake training nation.
