Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Europeian Senate Speaker of Drecq is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Coco with an even hand, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 6.213 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Commerce, Defence, and Law & Order. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Coconia. The average income tax rate is 99%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales industries.

The government is avowedly atheist, the number of students attending university has reached a record high, commercial jingles have been ham-handedly forced into world renowned symphonies, and the nation's diplomatic missives are now delivered via sniper rifle. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Drecq's national animal is the Barbary Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is Cuthulhuism, and its currency is the SCU.

Drecq is ranked 9th in Europeia and 715th in the world for Largest Mining Sector, scoring 17 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
