“We stand strong against the Void.”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Empire of Aura Draconis is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Empress Adler with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, keen interest in outer space, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.725 billion Aura Draconians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zakuul. The average income tax rate is 52.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Aura Draconisian economy, worth 271 trillion Dragons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 157,428 Dragons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

There are traffic jams at sea as diligent customs officers check every part of every ship, the police insist that racism does not exist, search and rescue forces now accept cheques and all major credit cards, and black Dragons are considered a delicacy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aura Draconis's national animal is the black Dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Order of Adler.

Aura Draconis is ranked 11,770^th in the world and 358^th in the South Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 75,408.3 Standard Monetary Units.
