The Queendom of Blue Dragonia is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, parental licensing program, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 8.627 billion Dragons are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 21.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Blue Dragonian economy, worth a remarkable 2,448 trillion Dragon Coins a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 283,867 Dragon Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
International war crimes are good for business and business is booming, the nation's faithful often say there is a higher power watching over them, the Blue Dragonian Intelligence Agency has put 'Project Quantum Refrigerator' on hold indefinitely, and politicians have to be granted day-release from prison to speak on bills. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Blue Dragonia's national animal is the Valkyria, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Blue Dragonia is ranked 40,630th in the world and 12th in The Rejected Pacific for Most Stationary, with 1,106.1325906858 days.
