The Most Serene Republic of Incessant Cawing is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Kenyuu Tsukiyami with an iron fist, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, ritual sacrifices, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.1 billion In-Cawers are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Nest. The average income tax rate is 93.2%.

The frighteningly efficient In-Cawer economy, worth a remarkable 1,286 trillion feathers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 252,291 feathers, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

People take government jobs for the frequent flier miles, peace talks occasionally rack up a higher body count than the wars they seek to stop, the revelation that people were sexist in the past is apparently front page news, and claiming to have performed the Heimlich Maneuver is a popular defense for assault charges. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Incessant Cawing's national animal is the crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is The Feathered Ones.

Incessant Cawing is ranked 1,055th in the world and 2nd in Chicken overlords for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 9,754.11 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
