The Unified Realms of Adregon is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Archon Rakiya with an iron fist, and renowned for its conspicuous electricity pylons, keen interest in outer space, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 16.042 billion Adregonians are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alfcourt. The average income tax rate is 91.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Adregonian economy, worth a remarkable 6,193 trillion Drachmas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 386,107 Drachmas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Paralegals spend all day Hewlett-Packing attorneys' law briefs, people are raising their middle finger to non-digital currencies, residents of houses built on a foundation of wishful thinking are prone to an odd sinking feeling, and attempts to inform people about their unclaimed property are often mistaken for telephone scams. Crime is totally unknown. Adregon's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Pastafarianism.

Adregon is ranked 63,213^th in the world and 2,809^th in Balder for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 1,570.51 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
