The Emirate of Sharafiah is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Sheikh Sayf bin Abd al-Rahman Al-Shamsi with an even hand, and notable for its otherworldly petting zoo, enslaved workforce, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 21.578 billion Sharafis are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, with Spirituality also on the agenda, while Welfare and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Al Jubayl. Income tax is unheard of.
The frighteningly efficient Sharafi economy, worth a remarkable 7,860 trillion Dirhams a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 364,281 Dirhams, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,410,370 per year while the poor average 3,298, a ratio of 1,034 to 1.
The police are tightening their grip on alcohol smugglers, Sharafi police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests, the nation is known abroad for fast food and nothing else, and Sharafi watches list strained wrists as a common side effect. Crime is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Sharafiah's national animal is the Arabian Camel, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Sunni Islam.
Sharafiah is ranked 4,473rd in the world and 9th in Yggdrasil for Most Stationary, with 3,424.66447488 days.
