The Emirate of Al Madhaa is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Emirah Zuhr bint Ghazi Al Shams with an even hand, and remarkable for its public floggings, national health service, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 6.475 billion Madhaa'ins are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gu'la. The average income tax rate is 84.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Madhaa'in economy, worth 618 trillion dhaa'ins a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 95,512 dhaa'ins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Judicial robes are the country's hottest fashion trend, where there's a will there is usually a password manager, the new Really Big Telescope has been praised for presenting pictures of bright dots in unprecedented detail, and immersive video game experiences are interrupted by incessant disclaimer pop-ups. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Al Madhaa's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Islam.

Al Madhaa is ranked 264,890^th in the world and 4,810^th in the South Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -8.84 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
