The Kingdom of Al Nurah is a small, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 20 million Al Nurahis are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Spirituality, with Law & Order and Defense also on the agenda. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 26.1%.

The very strong Al Nurahian economy, worth 1.20 trillion Al Nurahi riyals a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Gambling. Average income is 60,131 Al Nurahi riyals, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Al Nurah's national animal is the Near Oriental camel.

Al Nurah is ranked 95,194th in the world and 2nd in Salis for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 3,514.03 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
