The Queendom of Dragocia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Lazuli Storm with an iron fist, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, keen interest in outer space, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 2.938 billion Dragocians 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Baccay. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 78.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Dragocian economy, worth 423 trillion Silver Scales a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 144,116 Silver Scales, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 612,798 per year while the poor average 21,828, a ratio of 28.1 to 1.

No cul-de-sac or trailer park is complete without a gambling parlor, safety warnings are prohibited lest they give people ideas, Dragocia's fine wines are renowned throughout the region, and this year's hottest fashion trend is the Lese Majeste collection. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dragocia's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Gradocian.

Dragocia is ranked 40,039th in the world and 1,341st in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 75 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
