The Imperial Empire of Drekamythia is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Havok Agamemnon with an iron fist, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons, free-roaming dinosaurs, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 22.861 billion Drekamythians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Imperius. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 90.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Drekamythian economy, worth a remarkable 3,303 trillion Imperial Denars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 144,503 Imperial Denars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 602,949 per year while the poor average 22,606, a ratio of 26.7 to 1.

10-year-olds who struggle with integrating by parts are considered slow learners, the government officially wants you to slow down and speak more clearly, cyclists spend more time unlocking their bicycles than they do cycling, and new government leaflets tell coeliac children to eat more crisps. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Drekamythia's national animal is the Turronian Wyvern, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Drekanity.

Drekamythia is ranked 291,517th in the world and 11th in Esvanovia for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 32.72 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
