The Eldritch Abomination of Al-Khadhulu is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Emperor Howard Lovecraft the Malignant with a fair hand, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, complete lack of public education, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 43.074 billion Al-Khadhuluans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Arkham-R'lyeh Megaplex. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.1%.

The very strong Al-Khadhuluan economy, worth a remarkable 5,420 trillion Cryptosoylent Soulmarks a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 125,832 Cryptosoylent Soulmarks, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 482,877 per year while the poor average 22,606, a ratio of 21.4 to 1.

The dead fish in the national rivers aren't decomposing because even bacteria can't survive the levels of toxicity, dream holidays often go awry, hammering a nail into a wall is an effective death sentence, and there's nothing special about Emperor Howard Lovecraft the Malignant. Crime is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Al-Khadhulu's national animal is the Star Spawn of Cthulhu, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Al-Khadhulu is ranked 100,820th in the world and 1,343rd in the South Pacific for Most Stationary, with 430.86501591288 days.
