The Cat of Cat027 is a titanic, genial nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 10.207 billion Cat027ians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 39.1%.

The thriving Cat027ian economy, worth 884 trillion Mice a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 86,616 Mice, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

Brazen mayors claim official expenses to pay for their drug habits, the military is plagued with unethical researchers, the government is interviewing for thousands of 'Religious Censor' positions, and religious epiphanies are often cited as a reason for high school drop-outs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cat027's national animal is the Cat.

Cat027 is ranked 10,559th in the world and 462nd in Osiris for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 114.67 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
