The Republic of Dragistal is a very large, genial nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 325 million Dragistalians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Haxiir. The average income tax rate is 73.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Dragistali economy, worth 22.3 trillion Guilds a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Trout Farming, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 68,518 Guilds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

School plays were recently banned due to concerns of child endangerment, parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list, advertisers scramble to sponsor the broadcast of Leader's most personal functions, and the state considers itself the 'third parent' of every child in the nation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dragistal's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Dragistal is ranked 34,001^st in the world and 1^st in The Dragon Plains for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,489.8 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
