The Flying in a rocket ship of Macaroon Cat is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Parry Gripp with an even hand, and renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, keen interest in outer space, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 8.23 billion Macaroon Catians 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, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moon. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 49.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Macaroon Catian economy, worth 975 trillion macaroons a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 118,495 macaroons, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 505,999 per year while the poor average 17,816, a ratio of 28.4 to 1.

Traveller camps regularly block five-lane superhighways, there is no such thing as an innocent fling in the Macaroon Catian military, parents who refuse to vaccinate their children are given a short jail sentence, and bilingual Macaroon Catians are viewed with suspicion. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Macaroon Cat's national animal is the cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is music.

Macaroon Cat is ranked 281,191^st in the world and 10^th in Hollow Point for Most Beautiful Environments, with 5.31 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
