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

The Republic of Softest Kittens is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, avant-garde cinema, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, humorless population of 7.996 billion Softest Kittensians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, moralistic, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Softest Kittensian economy, worth a remarkable 1,898 trillion currencies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Basket Weaving. Average income is an amazing 237,456 currencies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers, everyone suspects that everyone else is a terrorist, the studies of art and philosophy are banned, and coastal cities are being moved a dozen miles inland to reduce flooding risk. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Softest Kittens's national animal is the animal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Softest Kittens is ranked 8,048^th in the world and 28^th in Vickenian experiment incubator for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 3,466.8 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
