The Kittens of Nauros is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Fred the lion with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 25.52 billion Naurosians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Catville. The average income tax rate is 76.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Naurosian economy, worth 121 trillion Nauroes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 4,769 Nauroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Animal Liberationists are regularly jailed, education and welfare spending are on the rise, Nauros has designated Catville as its capital city, and Fred the lion has just been declared ruler of Nauros in an international press conference. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nauros's national animal is the wasp, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Order of the Cat.

Nauros is ranked 62,093rd in the world and 3rd in Cats for Lowest Crime Rates, with 71.37 law-abiding acts per hour.
