Cattopia, officially the Democratic Republic of Cattopia is a micronation founded on 2 May 2016.
Etymology
Cattopia is pronounced mainly either Cat-topia or Cah-Toh-Pea, though the current Chancellor, Liam Raymond, prefers the latter.
History
Cattopia emerged after an argument between Chancellor Raymond and his mother on 2 May on whether or not he could build cat shelves. In protest to her "no", Chancellor Raymond declared independence and founded the Democratic Republic of Cattopia. The first document was then created for Cattopia, declaring independence. Later that same day, the Flag of Cattopia was designed by Chancellor Raymond to be the national flag flown in Cattopia.
Politics

Culture
Cattopian culture is essentially the same as English culture, though a tradition of cat puns was started by a prominent member and has stuck since then. However, Chancellor Raymond is very interested in developing a unique Cattopian culture independent from the English culture.
Religion
Religion isn't really an important aspect within Cattopia though despite this a survey was conducted to determine the religions of the populous. Note that Atheist-Spiritual refers to any one who does not believe in a god though does believe in some other religious belief, for example reincarnation. This option was included due to two prominent citizens of Cattopia believing in reincarnation and past lives. Additionally, Cat Cult was included due to the lack of knowledge to what Cats believe in and so the two cat inhabitants were immediately added to the Cat Cult category.
