The United Republics of Sulaymaan is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Alastair Riothamus with an even hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 35.156 billion Sulayians 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 minute, corrupt government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Khotan. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Sulaymaanian economy, worth an astonishing 20,143 trillion Sulaymaan soums a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is a breathtaking 572,987 Sulaymaan soums, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Advertisements for jobs in the sciences run in fashion magazines, the hardest thing for a mining operation to dig through is government red tape, mandatory neutering has made purebred dogs a thing of the past, and sections of the police receive paramilitary training. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Sulaymaan's national animal is the Sugar Glider, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Freedom of Religion.

Sulaymaan is ranked 12,916^th in the world and 2^nd in Nova for Lowest Crime Rates, with 96.65 law-abiding acts per hour.
