The Holy Pink Sultanate of Al-Leilah is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Salahudin with an iron fist, and renowned for its smutty television, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 32.342 billion Leilahis are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is dominated by the Department of Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Spirituality also on the agenda, while Welfare and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Qamarabad. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Leilahi economy, worth a remarkable 5,410 trillion sakhils a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 167,302 sakhils, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,539,051 per year while the poor average 1,865, a ratio of 825 to 1.

Kids are taught in schools to argue with their parents, Salahudin's media campaigns take a hiatus around exam week, the Foreign Ministry thinks an eye for an eye is a blindingly good idea, and the government terminates employment with extreme prejudice. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Al-Leilah's national animal is the camel, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Islam.

Al-Leilah is ranked 291,569th in the world and 166th in The World Rearranged for Lowest Crime Rates, with 17.71 law-abiding acts per hour.
