The Republic of Meow 1 is a massive, safe nation, ruled by The Antichrist with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, otherworldly petting zoo, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 3.88 billion Meow 1ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Magog. The average income tax rate is 55.2%.

The powerhouse Meow 1ian economy, worth 267 trillion kronor a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 68,980 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Airplane passengers who purchase "basic economy" tickets are often assigned seats in the lavatory, sales of pregnancy testing kits are booming, kids looking for shark teeth have become ancient history, and enemy agents are generally eliminated with extreme prejudice. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Meow 1's national animal is the kiwi, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Satanism.

Meow 1 is ranked 246,153^rd in the world and 3,668^th in Artificial Solar System for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -3.74 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
