The Empire of Snowcat is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Master with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 44.943 billion Snowcatians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The minute government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Education, with Social Policy and Spirituality not funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Snowcatian economy, worth an astonishing 10,984 trillion Angsts a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. Average income is an amazing 244,418 Angsts, with the richest citizens earning 7.4 times as much as the poorest.

Falling over while singing is a national pastime, you can't spell society without CIS, the government raises tariffs on a weekly basis, and college-level writing classes are taught by undergraduate editors of the school newspaper. Crime is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Snowcat's national animal is the Salmon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Snowcat is ranked 164,802nd in the world and 13th in The Furry Federation for Most Stationary, with 118.11268829672 days.
