The Dominion of Paws VII is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its frequent executions, avant-garde cinema, and public floggings. The hard-nosed population of 11.296 billion Paws VIIians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 29.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Paws VIIian economy, worth 550 trillion Deneroes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 48,725 Deneroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Phone taps are frequently carried out by the police, Merry Birthday is a popular protest song despite the risk of fines and royalty dues, major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day, and builders across Paws VII are blocked up with orders for new public loos. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Paws VII's national animal is the Cat.
Paws VII is ranked 144,666th in the world and 43rd in Obsidian Islands for Highest Food Quality, scoring 16.14 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
