The Community of SleepyCatten is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.43 billion SleepyCattenians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 76.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant SleepyCattenian economy, worth 51.5 trillion units 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 Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 15,017 units, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Drills and shovels have been banned as the government cracks down on any means of fracking, veteran cops reminisce over their heavy armor days, every week is blindness awareness week, and sales of disinfectant wipes have skyrocketed. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SleepyCatten's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

SleepyCatten is ranked 163,493rd in the world and 2nd in The Cooperative Alliance of Shivtonia for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 480.59 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
