The Emirate of Adeptustan is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, avant-garde cinema, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 543 million Adeptustanis are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ruwah Al-Mitriyah. The average income tax rate is 64.4%.

The thriving Adeptustanian economy, worth 50.7 trillion bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 93,302 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths, asking 'a penny for your thoughts?' draws law enforcement response, comedians who make offensive jokes have their ticket proceeds seized, and the wearing and manufacture of fur apparel is banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Adeptustan's national animal is the sandshrew, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Adeptustan is ranked 17,639^th in the world and 2^nd in Chaldea for Largest Mining Sector, scoring 9,321.69 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
