The Dominion of Catakistan is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its vat-grown people, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, humorless population of 18.725 billion Catakistanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the Undercat Citadel. The average income tax rate is 98.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Catakistanian economy, worth a remarkable 3,446 trillion Shmeckles a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 184,061 Shmeckles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Leader has been nicknamed 'Robomop', scientific journals publish third-graders' school essays, internet ads promising "hot singles in your area" are even less accurate than they used to be, and nobody likes bad boys any more. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Catakistan's national animal is the Speckled Catakiscat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Catakistan is ranked 6,894^th in the world and 158^th in the Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 185.76 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
