The Federal Republic of Hashemites is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Hashim Ibn La Ahaq with a fair hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, smutty television, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 2.659 billion Hashemis 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 large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Khana Raigan. The average income tax rate is 92.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hashemistani economy, worth 483 trillion Kos a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 181,767 Kos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

School uniforms are compulsory, the national anthem is a rather effective sleeping aid, a suspicious number of male students have joined the Ladies' Wrestling League, and motorcycle riders are required to wear so much gear they've been nicknamed "Stay Pufts". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hashemites's national animal is the Markhor, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Tuarif Order.

Hashemites is ranked 8,344th in the world and 130th in the West Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 104.62 law-abiding acts per hour.
