The Protectorate of Cat159 is a massive, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, devout population of 1.333 billion Cat159ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 45.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Cat159ian economy, worth 66.4 trillion Mice a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 49,803 Mice, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The Ministry of Health has reported a sharp increase in the incidence of delayed menopause, wigged-out hunters report playing croquet with the Queen of Hearts, a suspicious number of John Smiths are known to donate to Cat159ian politicians, and Leader has just been declared ruler of Cat159 in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cat159's national animal is the Cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Cat159 is ranked 115,760th in the world and 121st in The Allied Nations of Egalaria for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 1,757.45 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
