The Grand Star Kingdom of Drakcon is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Drakconus Drakcul Drakcon with a fair hand, and remarkable for its digital currency, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 37.93 billion Drakconians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Drakcontium. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Drakconian economy, worth a remarkable 8,987 trillion Drakcoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 236,952 Drakcoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The seventh son of a seventh son is fated to be a millionaire, gardeners must genetically test weeds for unique traits before digging them up, the "daily grind" consists of levelling up in tedious video games, and corrupt paupers spend taxpayer Drakcoes on liquor and tobacco. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Drakcon's national animal is the Space Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Drakconology.

Drakcon is ranked 250,527th in the world and 3,119th in the West Pacific for Most Average, scoring 26.23 on the Average Standardized Normality Scale.
