The Republic of Dralderney is a tiny, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 12 million Dralderneyians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.7%.

The strong Dralderneyian economy, worth 742 billion rupees a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 61,882 rupees, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 394,282 per year while the poor average 4,002, a ratio of 98.5 to 1.

Organ donation is compulsory, surveillance cameras are banned, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and it's rare to find an unchewed pencil. Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Dralderney's national animal is the kangaroo, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Dralderney is ranked 121,876^th in the world and 57^th in Dritish Empire for Highest Average Incomes, with 61,882.98 Standard Monetary Units.
