The Sultanate of Al-Dijaj is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Sultan Abdul Fatih with an iron fist, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, free-roaming dinosaurs, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 12.972 billion Al-Dijajis are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Spirituality also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nusantara. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Al-Dijajian economy, worth a remarkable 7,226 trillion Sarsurs a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is a breathtaking 557,120 Sarsurs, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,944,026 per year while the poor average 55,989, a ratio of 52.6 to 1.

The native owl population is in permanent hibernation, kindergartens are full of kids dressed as superheroes and princesses, adults have never outgrown their fear of monsters, and the government spends twice its healthcare budget on replacing stolen pens. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Al-Dijaj's national animal is the Flying Camel, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Al-Dijaj is ranked 49,026th in the world and 884th in The East Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring 57.04 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
