The Padishah of Suwaya is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Ikki Ammar Jah Uru Suwaya with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, avowedly heterosexual populace, and triple-decker prams. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 9.948 billion Suwayans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pot Mosbi. The average income tax rate is 29.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Suwayan economy, worth a remarkable 1,403 trillion Bhahars a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 141,106 Bhahars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.
News headlines suggest that Ikki Ammar Jah Uru Suwaya has a sideline in guinea pig pimping, the clergy of Christianity remains a single-sex institution, molehills are the only mountains deemed safe enough for the public, and nobility is the world's oldest profession. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Suwaya's national animal is the Saffron Tufted Paradise Bird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.
Suwaya is ranked 63,474th in the world and 12th in Saeculum Obscurum for Lowest Crime Rates, with 71.12 law-abiding acts per hour.
