The Sultanate of AlNizal is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Nishal The Great with an even hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, frequent executions, and prohibition of alcohol. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 8.46 billion AlNizalians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nishalistan. The average income tax rate is 97.5%.

The frighteningly efficient AlNizalian economy, worth a remarkable 1,304 trillion Alnizal Dinars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 154,174 Alnizal Dinars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are bleary-eyed after staying up all night with a good book (AlNizal has found 4 easter eggs), the meaning of life was recently discovered in the patch notes for Version 1.42, dog owners proudly declare that their pups can predict when the mailman will arrive, and the world still seems flat to some people in space. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. AlNizal's national animal is the Wild Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Sunni Islam.

AlNizal is ranked 288,710^th in the world and 6,248^th in The North Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -19.8 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
