The Catatonic State of Cathamye

“A kind word and a helping hand for all”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Catatonic State of Cathamye is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Kit Purr with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, national health service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 2.5 billion Cats enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cataplexy. The average income tax rate is 73.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Feline economy, worth 240 trillion kronor a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 96,036 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Kids laugh off vandalism and arson as "just fun", t-shirts displaying a photo of Kit Purr performing the Full-Monty are selling out, things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication, and it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cathamye's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is serenity.

Cathamye is ranked 28,581^st in the world and 417^th in 10000 Islands for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 194.74 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
