The Kingdom of CopyCato is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by MEOWTRON with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, national health service, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate population of 6.301 billion CopyCatoans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Meowtown. The average income tax rate is 63.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient CopyCatoan economy, worth 675 trillion pototoes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 107,207 pototoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The news is showing footage of MEOWTRON bullying an old man to the point of tears, hostage-takers offer loyalty scheme points for prompt payment, MEOWTRON is too busy listening to praise to get any work done, and the children of CopyCato are often remarked upon for their cheery attitude to extreme violence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. CopyCato's national animal is the dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Pagan atheist.

CopyCato is ranked 16,107^th in the world and 511^th in The East Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 8,372.45 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
