The People's Republic of Catpersonland is a huge, genial nation, notable for its smutty television, ban on automobiles, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, democratic population of 353 million Catpersonlandians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 75.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Catpersonlandian economy, worth 23.1 trillion francs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Tourism, and Information Technology. Average income is 65,529 francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cancer rates amongst the richest in society are inexplicably on the rise, leather-clad individuals can be seen walking their slaves in public parks, citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, and the election for Leader's office's janitor is heating up. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Catpersonland's national animal is the lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Catpersonland is ranked 25,900^th in the world and 587^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Beautiful Environments, with 894.22 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
