The Holy Empire of Dragonic Kantan is a colossal, pleasant nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, triple-decker prams, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, devout population of 5.212 billion Kantanians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 68.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Dragonic Kantanian economy, worth 235 trillion Golds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 45,171 Golds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Exceptionally talented workers are praised more than Revolutionary heroes, the Dragonic Kantan Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise, government officials go door-to-door educating about the dangers of pseudoscience, and the public transport system has been eliminated. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dragonic Kantan's national animal is the serpent, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Dragonic Kantan is ranked 315,688^th in the world and 2^nd in The Realms of Darkness for Most Cultured, scoring 53 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
