The Socialist Republic of Drakan is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Chi dingling with a fair hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 2.567 billion Drakanians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beking. The average income tax rate is 92.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Drakanian economy, worth 305 trillion baht a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 119,096 baht, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Male politicians lose their jobs for staring too long at their female counterparts, interest in globalism never flags, atheists are heavily taxed, and even the nation's brussel sprouts are delicious and nutritious. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Drakan's national animal is the Dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Tauism.

Drakan is ranked 99,837th in the world and 70th in The Wellspring for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 3,349.74 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
