The Meower of Lionsroar III is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Sir Meowsalot with an even hand, and notable for its frequent executions, ban on automobiles, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 3.053 billion Meowians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Meowistan. The average income tax rate is 44.6%.

The powerhouse Lionsroar IIIian economy, worth 260 trillion Meows a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 85,295 Meows, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

A niche industry catering to S&M enthusiasts has sprung up, prisons are filled with the cackles and sobs of a deranged inmate population, the judicial branch is strongly influenced by major corporations, and the armed forces are locked in an expensive and bloody war abroad to stamp out possible terrorists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lionsroar III's national animal is the Meower and its national religion is Meowism.

Lionsroar III is ranked 321,108^th in the world and 3^rd in The Cat Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 50 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
