The Catochristoferson WA Puppet of Cato2 is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Dude Ravioli with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, complete lack of prisons, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 9.337 billion Lawless Criminals are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of a Trailer Park. The average income tax rate is 87.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Lawless Criminal economy, worth 865 trillion Silver Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 92,676 Silver Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The amount welfare recipients spend on fertilizer has exploded, children must be board certified to append "Jr" to their name, jabbing a baby's bottle at officials gets parents waved straight through immigration, and glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cato2's national animal is the Black Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Devil Worshipping.

Cato2 is ranked 309,087th in the world and 1,223rd in Europeia for Largest Mining Sector, scoring -16.49 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
