The Queendom of Illusion Dragonia is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, pith helmet sales, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.057 billion Dragons are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 76.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Illusion Dragonian economy, worth a remarkable 2,019 trillion Dragon Coins a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 286,167 Dragon Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

Well-off serial killers write monthly checks to avoid jail time, a National Academy regulates grammar and usage, property owners are terrified of pigeons nesting in their buildings, and several inches are being added to first class seating. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Illusion Dragonia's national animal is the Valkyria, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Illusion Dragonia is ranked 40,665th in the world and 48th in The Rejected Pacific for Most Stationary, with 1,106.13093790908 days.
