The Grand Monarchy of United Draconia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Robert Buckingham with a fair hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.131 billion Draconian's love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Laconia. The average income tax rate is 90.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient United Draconian economy, worth 318 trillion Emeralds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 149,666 Emeralds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Hordes of tourists are ruining the environment, the family summer vacation has become a thing of the past following the introduction of the year-round school year, retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites, and rude retail employees are now even ruder homeless panhandlers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United Draconia's national animal is the White Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Zen.

United Draconia is ranked 30,268^th in the world and 1,327^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 4,045.98 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
