The Mercenary of The Cats of War is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Commander Tuna with a fair hand, and notable for its irreverence towards religion and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.043 billion Battle Cats hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cat City. The average income tax rate is 50.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Kittian economy, worth 131 trillion pawcashes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Tourism, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 43,203 pawcashes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Ironic death by tasering is on the rise amongst door-to-door taser salesmen, courses in how to boil water are popular for formerly microwave-reliant Battle Cats, write-in candidate 'Commander Tuna Sucks' is perennially popular, and the Violetist community celebrates bombshells being dropped on The Cats of War. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Cats of War's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Cats of War is ranked 61,355^th in the world and 1^st in Ailuros for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 46.76 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
