The Narcissist of Royabad is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Ashkan I with an even hand, and notable for its frequent executions, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, devout population of 9.438 billion Royabadis have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Royabad. The average income tax rate is 75.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Royabadi economy, worth 926 trillion paisas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 98,201 paisas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

100-year-old politicians are now a thing of the past, grinding bureaucracy has the international wheels of justice turning slowly, politicians spend more time in courtrooms than in Parliament, and living well is no longer the best kind of revenge. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Royabad's national animal is the Common kingfisher, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Islam.

Royabad is ranked 78,572^nd in the world and 1,172^nd in The East Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 3,717.99 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
