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

The Democratic Republic of Drask is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Jaxon Thorne with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, frequent executions, and compulsory military service. The compassionate population of 6.384 billion Draskians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Basin City. The average income tax rate is 73.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Draskian economy, worth 577 trillion Auroracredits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 90,382 Auroracredits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreigners with shady pasts are fleeing the country, students eagerly await homework from their gaming class, cops in Basin City spend much of their time napping on a park bench next to Embassy Row, and war vets look after war animals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Drask's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Drask is ranked 276,459^th in the world and 1,401^st in the Outback for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.68 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
