The Socialist-Jihadist State of Combras is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Tra'fikanty Jaymeh ibn Sufi al-Faqih with an iron fist, and remarkable for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.177 billion Negus are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Spirituality. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68.1%.

The Nego economy, worth 282 trillion Hiyyals a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 88,963 Hiyyals, with the richest citizens earning 8.8 times as much as the poorest.

Monks aren't the only ones who take vows of silence, international trade can be a pain to deal with, the act of reporting blasphemy is known as 'Orthodoxxing', and citizens who fail to follow the official national religion are executed. Crime is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Combras's national animal is the Hat'unego, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Iutabism - Fundamentalist Jihadist Islam.

Combras is ranked 286,424th in the world and 10,764th in Osiris for Safest, scoring 5.13 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
