The Republic of Wildcat is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Legate Archer Jaffray with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 3.097 billion Wildcatians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wayside. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.4%.

The very strong Wildcatian economy, worth 218 trillion denaris a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 70,612 denaris, with the richest citizens earning 7.9 times as much as the poorest.

The automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, law schools are hurrying to teach the "prank defense" to their students, criminals always seem to be forewarned of police raids, and both diets and economic output are growing leaner with recent restrictions to free trade. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Wildcat's national animal is the wildcat and its national religion is Tellurism.

Wildcat is ranked 173,738^th in the world and 11^th in The Adelphine Commonwealth for Largest Populations, with 3.10 billion capita.
