The Free Nation of Individualist Catopia is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 4.178 billion Individualist Catopians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 57.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Individualist Catopian economy, worth 328 trillion Kots a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Furniture Restoration, and Tourism. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 78,729 Kots, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The regional delicacy of chocolate bombes is deadlier than an unexploded bomb, convicts released after being found "wrongfully imprisoned" are surprisingly chill about the whole thing, citizens are required to report any and all incidents of prayer to their local Religious Affairs Officer, and the daily weather forecast often predicts light showers of debris. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Individualist Catopia's national animal is the red-faced feather-bellied Maine Coon, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Individualist Catopia is ranked 99,887^th in the world and 2,722^nd in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 85.62 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
