The Queendom of King Dragonia is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 8.717 billion Dragons are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 35.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient King Dragonian economy, worth a remarkable 2,459 trillion Dragon Coins a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 282,135 Dragon Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
Suicide victims often leave behind cash to cover the cost of their fines, teenagers claim that morning paper rounds are performance art, several inches are being added to first class seating, and disadvantaged neighbourhoods have become no-go areas after sundown. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. King Dragonia's national animal is the Valkyria, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
King Dragonia is ranked 6,012th in the world and 120th in The Rejected Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 112.07 law-abiding acts per hour.
