The Islamic Sultanate of Mesarabia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Sultan Amir Sūri with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, complete lack of prisons, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 4.267 billion Mesarabians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Firuzkuh. The average income tax rate is 44.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The large but inefficient Mesarabian economy, worth 176 trillion Dinars a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 41,275 Dinars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
Schools have extensive counseling programs for troubled students, priests roam the streets with child-catcher nets, the consent form for routine blood pressure measurement has been nominated for the 'Novel Of The Year' award, and heavy industry must go to expensive lengths to dispose of waste. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mesarabia's national animal is the Snow Leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Islam.
Mesarabia is ranked 179,069th in the world and 16th in The Equator for Most Primitive, scoring -63.8 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
