The Empire of Great Platinum Dragon is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 572 million Dargonians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Law & Order, and Industry are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.4%.

The powerhouse Great Platinum Dragonian economy, worth 46.6 trillion Golds a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 81,512 Golds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 286,257 per year while the poor average 16,829, a ratio of 17.0 to 1.

The government puts forth the claim that harming young girls is wrong, all mothers are allowed six months fully-paid maternity leave, emigrants arrive on foreign shores with nothing but pocket sand, and captains must wait until all rats are safe before jumping ship. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. Great Platinum Dragon's national animal is the Dargon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Great Platinum Dragon is ranked 42,126^th in the world and 20^th in Lair of the Dragon for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 4,555.74 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
