The Queendom of Honey Dragonia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, free-roaming dinosaurs, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.087 billion Dragons are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.6%.
The frighteningly efficient Honey Dragonian economy, worth a remarkable 2,064 trillion Dragon Coins 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, 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 amazing 255,260 Dragon Coins, with the richest citizens earning 5.7 times as much as the poorest.
Trails to natural wonders are littered with trash from reality film crews, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, former bars are desperately trying to re-brand themselves as cafés, and Calvinball players are lost for days as they wander the vast halls of their new academies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Honey Dragonia's national animal is the Valkyria, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Honey Dragonia is ranked 1,626th in the world and 61st in The Rejected Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 386.92 kickbacks per hour.
