The Union of Northern African Sahara is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Rahim Akhter with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, humorless population of 10.038 billion Northern African Saharans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alexandria Federal City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Northern African Saharan economy, worth a remarkable 3,044 trillion NAS Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 303,280 NAS Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, refugees from other nations are flocking to Northern African Sahara's border, nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers, and student athletes gaze forlornly at abandoned Hawkball fields. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Northern African Sahara's national animal is the Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is State Secularism.

Northern African Sahara is ranked 8,116^th in the world and 82^nd in 10000 Islands for Most Stationary, with 1,696.6655808 Days.
