The Most Serene Republic of Incessant Cawing is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Kenyuu Tsukiyami with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 4.96 billion In-Cawers are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Nest. The average income tax rate is 92.7%.

The frighteningly efficient In-Cawer economy, worth a remarkable 1,217 trillion feathers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 245,544 feathers, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

Pet loving officers arrest citizens who don't give their dogs enough biscuits, they who do not work shall not eat, it is illegal to comfort a crying baby between the hours of 6 pm and 8 pm, and main battle tanks stalk the woods of Incessant Cawing in search of crows. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Incessant Cawing's national animal is the crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is The Feathered Ones.

Incessant Cawing is ranked 320,519^th in the world and 18,536^th in Chicken overlords for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring -11.31 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
