The Wait i can change this to wh of Catopinia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Guy in a jacket with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and national health service. The devout population of 6.185 billion Catopinians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ourobourus. The average income tax rate is 80.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Catopinian economy, worth 650 trillion Deksers a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 105,142 Deksers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Old warplanes and tanks that break down can't be repaired since no one makes the parts anymore, sneezing pedestrians are grabbed by alley-lurking doctors, visiting the best Catopinian restaurants requires keeping a visa on file, and glamping Catopinians won't sleep in a tent that doesn't include a Jacuzzi. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Catopinia's national animal is the Catopine, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catopinese.

Catopinia is ranked 62,705th in the world and 121st in The Kodiak Republic for Nicest Citizens, with 16.29 average smiles per day.
