The Republic of Mystic Dragon is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its frequent executions, public floggings, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 485 million Mystic Dragonians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Plasma. The average income tax rate is 39.0%.

The powerhouse Mystic Dragonian economy, worth 41.4 trillion Dragon Coins a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 85,322 Dragon Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Party-lovers often change religions just for the weekend, when electric cars arrived nobody heard them coming, the government raises tariffs on a weekly basis, and political dissidents are cut off from essential services. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mystic Dragon's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Mystic Dragon is ranked 73,223^rd in the world and 3^rd in Dragon Ridge for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 3,639.61 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
