The 27 Billion Shameless S O B's of FASTERCAT is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Charlton Heston with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, compulsory military service, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cheerful, devout population of 27.607 billion Ethnic Felines are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nazareth. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient FASTERCATian economy, worth a remarkable 7,872 trillion Duckies a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 285,180 Duckies, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,149,311 per year while the poor average 47,293, a ratio of 24.3 to 1.

Claiming to have performed the Heimlich Maneuver is a popular defense for assault charges, the country is littered with broken homes, ethnic minorities are often refused admission to some of the nation's best schools, and police officers often conceal their identities to safeguard against public complaints. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. FASTERCAT's national animal is the double breasted mattress thrasher, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is TedNugentism.

FASTERCAT is ranked 292,960^th in the world and 104^th in Capitalist Paradise for Lowest Crime Rates, with 8.7 law-abiding acts per hour.
