The Emirate of Assuria is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Ali with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.907 billion Assurians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Baghdad. The average income tax rate is 65.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Assurian economy, worth 358 trillion Dinars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 123,340 Dinars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

What's in your genes matters more than what's in your jeans, lawyers are ordering red ink and 'Cease and Desist' rubber stamps in preparation for the return of copyright law, the navy's new flotilla is gonna be a thrilla, and class action lawsuits have gone up in smoke thanks to government interference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Assuria's national animal is the Camel, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Assuria is ranked 11,579^th in the world and 585^th in Balder for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 6,637.24 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
