The Queen's State of Cathure Stone is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 36.937 billion Cathure Stoneans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Welfare, although Healthcare and Education are also considered important, while Defense and Law & Order receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.2%.

The strong Cathure Stonean economy, worth a remarkable 1,234 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Cheese Exports, and Soda Sales. Average income is 33,413 betales, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

Voting is voluntary, military funding has been stripped back, and education and welfare spending are on the rise. Crime is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Cathure Stone's national animal is the deer.

Cathure Stone is ranked 2,781^st in the world and 177^th in State for Largest Populations, with 36.9 billion capita.
