The Ⓐnarchy of Catochristoferson is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Dude Ravioli with a fair hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, keen interest in outer space, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 20.457 billion Lawless Criminals hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The minute, liberal, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of a Trailer Park. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Lawless Criminal economy, worth a remarkable 4,845 trillion Silver Dollars 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 large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Pizza Delivery, and Book Publishing. 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 236,867 Silver Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The new national campaign exhorts men to "Show Some Class - Don't Sit On Your Ass", bowling teams spend more time looking at their phones than the pins, children need to wear helmets and safety harnesses before mounting a carousel horse, and adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Catochristoferson's national animal is the Black Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Devil Worshipping.

Catochristoferson is ranked 2,518^th in the world and 30^th in Europeia for Most Cultured, scoring 232 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
