The Federal Kingdom of Hydra Dragon is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Queen Aluna I with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, daily referendums, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed population of 10.937 billion Federal Hydrans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hydra City and Dragonvilia. The average income tax rate is 73.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Federal Hydran economy, worth a remarkable 1,451 trillion Hydrals a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 132,680 Hydrals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Home renovation shows are increasingly popular, newborns are being raised as mindless killing machines, hackers post hourly updates on international summits, and the army consists of only generals and grunts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hydra Dragon's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Church of Sora.

Hydra Dragon is ranked 29,426th in the world and 17th in Thaecia for Most Patriotic, with 38.9 flags saluted per person per day.
