The People's Democratic Republic of Al-Aezam is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Ra'īs Kourosh Rasul with an iron fist, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, national health service, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 15.299 billion Al-Aezamis 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, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Markaz. The average income tax rate is 97.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Al-Aezami economy, worth a remarkable 4,830 trillion Al-Aezami Dinars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Information Technology and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 315,766 Al-Aezami Dinars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has adopted a "Lightning Never Strikes Twice" approach to dealing with natural disasters, the legalization of meat has skewered the sales of vegetarian substitutes, solid-gold toilets are Al-Aezami prisons' least expensive furnishings, and commuters often break into synchronised para-para dancing for no reason at all. Crime is totally unknown. Al-Aezam's national animal is the lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Islam.

Al-Aezam is ranked 26,380th in the world and 40th in The Internationale for Lowest Crime Rates, with 85.01 law-abiding acts per hour.
