The Ecologically Responsible Cat of Kattenland is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Ella with a fair hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, ban on automobiles, and compulsory vegetarianism. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 4.805 billion Cats love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tree of Many Cats. The average income tax rate is 76.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Feline economy, worth 294 trillion Katt Euros 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 Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Soda Sales. Average income is 61,356 Katt Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's industries are scrambling to switch to biodegradable plastics, some Feline athletes have defected to Blackacre after being denied the chance to compete in international sporting events, leather-clad individuals can be seen walking their slaves in public parks, and vegetarianism is compulsory. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kattenland's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Nature.

Kattenland is ranked 112,406th in the world and 191st in Forest for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 2,889.09 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
