The Charitable Care of Cecelia Catkin is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its soft-spoken computers, disturbing lack of elderly people, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed population of 5.977 billion Cecelia Catkinians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 34.7%.

The large but inefficient Cecelia Catkinian economy, worth 291 trillion pesos a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Woodchip Exports, Automobile Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 48,733 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

All weapon research has been banned, no one can find a leaky faucet in Cecelia Catkin anymore, ship captains always order a return to port at the slightest sign of rain, and over a third of the seats in sports stadiums have been removed to make room for female-only commodes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cecelia Catkin's national animal is the squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cecelia Catkin is ranked 166,283rd in the world and 2,100th in Artificial Solar System for Most Stationary, with 113.9037118238 days.
