The Hawkwing of Shadowsight is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Rootspring with an iron fist, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, public floggings, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 3.649 billion Shadowsightians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Education, with Administration, Defense, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of ShadowClan camp. The average income tax rate is 59.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Shadowsightian economy, worth 109 trillion Catnips 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 a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, Retail, 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 30,035 Catnips, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens spend millions on microtransactions to feed virtual orphans while actual orphans starve overseas, the nation's historic treasures have been sold off to Maxtopia's "Museum of Shadowsightian Artifacts That They're Too Stupid to Appreciate", it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, and 90% of active duty SAF personnel have been laid off and replaced by robot kill-drones. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Shadowsight's national animal is the Rootspring, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is 'StarClan'.

Shadowsight is ranked 4,884^th in the world and 2^nd in MJT for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 142.65 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
