The Queendom of Volcan Dragonia is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its closed borders, parental licensing program, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.843 billion Dragons are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 68.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Volcan Dragonian economy, worth a remarkable 2,380 trillion Dragon Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 303,506 Dragon Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.
Politicians sweat as journalists scour internet archives for any mention of them, the police motto is "to protect and not to serve", public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers, and the needs of the living outweigh the needs of the dead. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Volcan Dragonia's national animal is the Valkyria, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Volcan Dragonia is ranked 291,782nd in the world and 526th in The Rejected Pacific for Fattest Citizens, with 4.18 Obesity Rate.
