The Imperial Elegarthan Dragon of Raegarth the Conqueror is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 21.469 billion Draconians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 94.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Raegarth the Conquerorian economy, worth a remarkable 4,301 trillion Gold Coins a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 200,353 Gold Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Leader's new political program is often mockingly called 'Capitalism with a Bigtopian face', chain casinos dominate the national gambling market, spies caught red-handed are served cocktails on their first-class flights home, and family trees become bare as entire branches are lopped off. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Raegarth the Conqueror's national animal is the Black Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Raegarth the Conqueror is ranked 253,718th in the world and 5th in House Elegarth for Most Stationary, with 17.4399888384 days.
