The Draconic Lands of Arthymia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Grand Dragon Grox VI with an even hand, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, cheerful population of 44.998 billion Arthymians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dormangwo. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Arthymian economy, worth an astonishing 11,607 trillion Floryns a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism. Average income is an amazing 257,946 Floryns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The most penniless demographics have by far the highest number of researchers per capita, workers tend to schedule naps during all-hands meetings, doctors accused of having no heart reply that cardiology isn't their speciality, and designer truncheons are the latest law enforcement fashion craze. Crime is totally unknown. Arthymia's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Drakonism.
Arthymia is ranked 1,311th in the world and 5th in Dragon for Most Beautiful Environments, with 4,528.99 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
