The Sultanate of AlNizal is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Muhammed Nishal The Great with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, keen interest in outer space, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, devout population of 1.624 billion AlNizalians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nishalistan. The average income tax rate is 92.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient AlNizalian economy, worth 181 trillion Alnizal Dinars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 111,662 Alnizal Dinars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The acceptance of acupuncture and other alternative therapies has needled the scientific community, AlNizal's first free elections in recent memory have been successfully concluded, door-to-door salesmen are frequently beaten up by 'vigilantes', and hundreds of sailors ride the good ship Muhammed Nishal The Great day after day. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. AlNizal's national animal is the Chimpanzee, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Sunni Islam.

AlNizal is ranked 127,596^th in the world and 5,323^rd in The North Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 1,001.06 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
