The Al-Sha'ab of Empire of Dabiristan is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Ayatollah Khomeini with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and national health service. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 8.758 billion Dabiristani's 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, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Maham. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Dabiristani economy, worth a remarkable 1,716 trillion Zaids a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 195,947 Zaids, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Cassocked priests and choirboys believe that what happens behind closed doors stays behind closed doors, a government program is underway to revitalize Empire of Dabiristan's beaches, Maxtopian villagers starve by the time Dabiristani officials even file the appropriate paperwork needed to help them, and citizens are exhausted from weekly general elections. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Empire of Dabiristan's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Shia Islam.

Empire of Dabiristan is ranked 19,342^nd in the world and 438^th in The East Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 285.05 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
