Location: The Bad Place

Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Blood SuckingVampire Kitten of Vampiric Kittens is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Death Kitten with an iron fist, and remarkable for its strong anti-business politics. Its compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 11.172 billion are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Defence, and Law & Order. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vampiric Kittens City. The average income tax rate is 71%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

The world outside is only known of in folklore, the country has been 'going shopping' by annexing nearby nations for their resources, citizens wishing to be parents must undertake a series of gruelling tests to evaluate their capabilities, and eminent domain has been abolished. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Vampiric Kittens's national animal is the bat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the fang.

Vampiric Kittens is ranked 3rd in The Bad Place and 9,142nd in the world for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 69 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
