The Nomadic Nation of Katas is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its national health service, keen interest in outer space, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 11.724 billion Katasians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Industry, Healthcare, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Central Katas. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Katasian economy, worth a remarkable 1,749 trillion Bramples a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 149,263 Bramples, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 541,719 per year while the poor average 29,291, a ratio of 18.5 to 1.

'To Regulate And Beyond' is the unofficial motto of the Katasian Space Agency, the government is washing its hands of alleged corruption, jury selection begins with explaining what a jury is, and concert pianists lie about their occupation to avoid ridicule. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Katas's national animal is the Gerald, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Katas is ranked 52,691st in the world and 32nd in The United Federations for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 3,730.26 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
