The Most Serene Republic of Incessant Cawing is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Kenyuu Tsukiyami with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, frequent executions, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 4.549 billion In-Cawers are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Nest. The average income tax rate is 91.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient In-Cawer economy, worth a remarkable 1,067 trillion feathers 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 an amazing 234,652 feathers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Conductors wield diamond-encrusted batons to fit in with their freshly gilded surroundings, the subway is dead quiet in early afternoons, you need two tenors and a coloratura contralto to sing the national anthem properly, and the fattest folk in Incessant Cawing look to be the happiest ones. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Incessant Cawing's national animal is the crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is The Feathered Ones.

Incessant Cawing is ranked 10,362nd in the world and 18th in Chicken overlords for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 34,811 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
