The Sultanate of Mursilis is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Sultan Saladin Mursili with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 23.565 billion Mursilisians 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Madinah Al Salam. The average income tax rate is 89.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Mursilisian economy, worth a remarkable 1,877 trillion Dinars a year, is extremely specialized and solely comprised of the Tourism industry. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 79,684 Dinars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Proper policy proposals prerequire professional peer-reviewed papers, the nation grinds to a halt for afternoon tea, invasive drug testing is now performed at elementary school sports days, and telling someone to 'break a leg' is considered a criminal inducement to self harm. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mursilis's national animal is the Kiwi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mursilis is ranked 288,646th in the world and 766th in 10000 Islands for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -16.2 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
