The Lethadone Clinic of Drecq is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Drecq with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, daily referendums, and strictly enforced bedtime. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 35.197 billion Drecqians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Drecq. The average income tax rate is 77.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Drecqian economy, worth an astonishing 13,354 trillion SCUS a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 379,434 SCUS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

'Mountain Doobie' is widely regarded as the nation's favourite drink, the new 'Things We Stole From Other Countries' exhibition at the National Museum of Antiquities is a hit, businesses often fire workers in favour of cheaper automatic systems, and retired racing Barbary Lions are served truffles for breakfast. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Drecq's national animal is the Barbary Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cuthulhuism.

Drecq is ranked 311,859^th in the world and 1,434^th in Europeia for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -21.68 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
