Forget the guns. There's no governmental structure, and almost all interpersonal conflicts are solved by glorified dogfights, except there's hundreds of types of "dogs" that include six-meter long dragons and dogs that shoot fire. Everyone has equal access to these creatures-- the things are a common-pool resource, and simple enough to capture that a young child could do it. And they do.
It's total anarchy, but there apparently hasn't been a war here in a long time.
Oh, and they seem to have a socialized medical system, despite the apparent lack of a government. Or as far as I can tell, taxes.
