The Sultanate of Agyptus is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Prince Hadid al-Mujmamad II with an iron fist, and notable for its aversion to nipples, prohibition of alcohol, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 1.744 billion Agyptusians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Yaira. The average income tax rate is 40.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Agyptusian economy, worth 166 trillion Agyptusian Dinars a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 95,598 Agyptusian Dinars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Teenage male videogamers often suffer repetitive strain wrist injuries, teenagers are making eye contact with each other for the first time in years, the internal market is thriving, and recent events have left citizens both shaken and stirred. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Agyptus's national animal is the Agyptusian Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Yellowism.

Agyptus is ranked 16,906th in the world and 18th in Barbaria for Largest Mining Sector, scoring 9,497.2 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
