The Glorious Empire of Aizdihar is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Caliph Yusuf ibn Ibrahim with a fair hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, anti-smoking policies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 3.494 billion Aizdiharians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saidis. The average income tax rate is 94.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Aizdiharian economy, worth 279 trillion Dinars a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. Average income is 80,103 Dinars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Roadside walls are being built and mother nature is paying for it, the government tells its citizens to 'forgive and forget', much of Aizdihar's computer network is controlled by a rampant artificial intelligence, and government bureaucrats review designs for birdhouses to ensure they do not block the views of neighbors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Aizdihar's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Islam.

Aizdihar is ranked 16,092^nd in the world and 1^st in The Golden Caliphate for Highest Food Quality, scoring 130.68 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
