The State of Catail is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Governor with an even hand, and renowned for its absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed population of 31.633 billion Catailians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 33.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Catailian economy, worth a remarkable 1,032 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Soda Sales, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 32,638 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, citizens can be frequently spotted going about their business stark naked, Catail has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Catail in an international press conference. Crime is moderate. Catail's national animal is the deer.

Catail is ranked 116,611^th in the world and 225^th in State for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,846.84 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
