The Islamic State of Al-Jihad is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Abu Jafar Al-Agrabahi with an iron fist, and renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, compulsory military service, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.31 billion Mujahideen 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 enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Spirituality, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Agrabah. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 72.5%.

The powerhouse Mujahid economy, worth 739 trillion 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 impressive 117,176 dinars, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

Mujahideen are wondering where have all the flowers gone, it is broadly agreed that tramp stamps are criminally undesirable, veterans' meet-ups involve a lot of tail sniffing, and hammer and sickle-wielding space marines are such stuff that dreams are made on. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Al-Jihad's national animal is the eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Salafist Sunni Islam.

Al-Jihad is ranked 285,317th in the world and 29th in Mediterranean for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -260.57 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
