The Carmine Feline of Occidius is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Nox with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, ubiquitous missile silos, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 24.813 billion Cats 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Dark Tower. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Cattish economy, worth a remarkable 6,161 trillion mice a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Gambling. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 248,303 mice, with the richest citizens earning 7.5 times as much as the poorest.

The government is dead set on letting people rest in peace, the song 'They Got an Awful Lot of Coffee in Occidius' is a smash hit, several inches are being added to first class seating, and pop sensation "Jack and the Holograms" is storming the charts. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Occidius's national animal is the Grump, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Violetism.

Occidius is ranked 329,034^th in the world and 2,637^th in the West Pacific for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring -16.43 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
