The Bloody commune of Empire of Draconia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Rajakstan with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.392 billion rajanians 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rajania. The average income tax rate is 80.0%.

The frighteningly efficient drogan economy, worth 329 trillion draiks 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 a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. 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 impressive 137,907 draiks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Harry Potter books are banned, collisions between bicycles and carnival floats are on the rise, talkative students are escorted from schools in second-hand prison buses, and the country's population is reported with a margin of error of several billions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Empire of Draconia's national animal is the dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Orthodoxy.

Empire of Draconia is ranked 43,881st in the world and 525th in Europe for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 165.19 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
