The Not Not Republic of Not Austria is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by Comrade Meow with a fair hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 9.558 billion Not Austrians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Not Vienna. The average income tax rate is 91.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Not Austrian economy, worth a remarkable 1,017 trillion Not Euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 106,461 Not Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A vast monorail network carries people all over the country, birth rates have hit an all-time low, third world countries are rich in "I Love Not Vienna" t-shirts, and citizens seem fixated on 105m x 45m rectangles. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Not Austria's national animal is the Not Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Not Austria is ranked 4,710^th in the world and 147^th in the South Pacific for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 84 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
