The Kingdom of Umayya Dynasty is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 485 million Umayyads enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Damascus. The average income tax rate is 8.8%.

The strong Umayyad economy, worth 26.3 trillion Umayya Dirhams a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Average income is 54,211 Umayya Dirhams, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, children are sent to either religious or secular schools, graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation', and Umayya Dynasty has designated Damascus as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. Umayya Dynasty's national animal is the Syrian Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Umayya Dynasty is ranked 94,226^th in the world and 4^th in Organization of United Sovereign States for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 3,247.29 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
