The Queendom of Rare Dragonia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, disturbing lack of elderly people, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.338 billion Dragons are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Rare Dragonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,724 trillion Dragon Coins a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 234,991 Dragon Coins, with the richest citizens earning 6.4 times as much as the poorest.
Meat prices are soaring as the farming industry struggle under government-imposed restrictions, doctors refer to inner-cities as newbie zones, the overhead luggage compartment is often full, and sheepish teenagers are making eye contact with their parents for the first time in a decade during state-enforced 'no-phones hour'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Rare Dragonia's national animal is the Valkyria, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Rare Dragonia is ranked 282,064th in the world and 511th in The Rejected Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -377.49 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
