The Empire of Draconea is a small, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-working, cynical population of 45 million Draconeans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.1%.

The strong Draconean economy, worth 2.75 trillion Currency Notes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 61,165 Currency Notes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 209,309 per year while the poor average 13,135, a ratio of 15.9 to 1.

Excessive wheelchair ramps on government buildings have been compared to theme park attractions, corporations donate huge sums of money to favored politicians, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and employers may fire workers without giving any reason. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Draconea's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Draconea is ranked 224,902^nd in the world and 2,327^th in the Pacific for Least Corrupt Governments, with 91.6 percentage of bribes refused.
