The Holy Dominion of The Drezhian Masters

“Power corrupts; we strive to be very corrupt indeed”

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

The Holy Dominion of The Drezhian Masters is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the Grandmaster of Drezhia with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, enslaved workforce, and fear of technology. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 30.465 billion Drezhian Mastersians 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 minute, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order is also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Drezhia. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Drezhian Mastersian economy, worth a remarkable 9,064 trillion quasars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 297,536 quasars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,047,643 per year while the poor average 61,185, a ratio of 17.1 to 1.

There are traffic jams at sea as diligent customs officers check every part of every ship, engine room hooch is the drink of choice among the nation's navy, the construction of massive skyscrapers seems to be the result of The Drezhian Masters's mid-life crisis, and talking during class is a gateway to lifelong drug addiction. 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. The Drezhian Masters's national animal is the winged serpent, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is the Mysteries of the Masters.

The Drezhian Masters is ranked 107,101^st in the world and 8^th in Dune for Lowest Crime Rates, with 65.03 law-abiding acts per hour.
