The Cat-run Empire of Commonwealth of Hank the Cat is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by President Hank the Cat with an iron fist, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, frequent executions, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 19.243 billion Hanklyvanians 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.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Education, with Defense, Healthcare, and Environment also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hankpolis. The average income tax rate is 63.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hanklyvanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,012 trillion Treat Tokens a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Gambling. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 104,603 Treat Tokens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Leakers release information by etching graffiti on bathroom stalls, the restriction that you must be over 1.1 metres tall to ride a carnotaurus has recently been waived, anyone who doesn't attend Official Governmental Religious Services is fined, and new legislators take a week-long class entitled "Keeping Your Job: How to Avoid Offending President Hank the Cat". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Commonwealth of Hank the Cat's national animal is the Maine Coon Cat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Treatism.

Commonwealth of Hank the Cat is ranked 287,443rd in the world and 9,936th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 4.0949279348 days.
