The Democratic Republic of Firedrake is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its burgeoning unicorn population. The cynical population of 4.163 billion Firedrakeans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 31.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Firedrakean economy, worth 108 trillion dollars a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 26,174 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Firedrake's national animal is the unicorn.

Firedrake is ranked 222,429^th in the world and 1^st in The sons of iron man for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 767.82 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
