The Emirate of Al-Hurriya is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 589 million Al-Hurriyans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 20.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Al-Hurriyan economy, worth 26.2 trillion Hurriyas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 44,472 Hurriyas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Child shoplifters spend half their youth behind bars, all footpaths have tollbooths, the government is engaging in an agricultural trade war with Maxtopia, and the nation's navy has been named the scourge of the seven thousand seas. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Al-Hurriya's national animal is the The Falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Al-Hurriya is ranked 67,237th in the world and 2nd in Caplyval for Most Secular, with 18.98 Atheism Rate.
