The Nightmare King of Pterodaxtyl is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Dax Lacerta-Vytherov with an iron fist, and remarkable for its teetotalling pirates, rampant corporate plagiarism, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 8.924 billion Dumbasses are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Magicant. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 57.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Daxtastic economy, worth 534 trillion Piano keys a year, is quite specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is 59,920 Piano keys, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 320,694 per year while the poor average 5,862, a ratio of 54.7 to 1.

Sushi is sold on the black market, late night adverts for breast milk co-ops regularly win pornography industry awards, consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, and millions of simultaneously backfiring toilets have flooded Magicant with effluent. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Pterodaxtyl's national animal is the The Archduke's Toucans and Froot loops, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Carl.

Pterodaxtyl is ranked 268,716^th in the world and 303^rd in The Black Hawks for Safest, scoring 7.93 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
