The Hashemite Sultanate of Hiyaz is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Sultan Ra'ad bin Zeid with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, pith helmet sales, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 9.681 billion Hiyazis 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 government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Makkah. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 73.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Hiyazi economy, worth a remarkable 1,334 trillion Riyals a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 137,828 Riyals, with the richest citizens earning 6.3 times as much as the poorest.

Bread-gangs raid restaurant waste bins to stockpile uneaten rolls, young people avoid opening doors for the elderly with impunity, pet loving officers arrest citizens who don't give their dogs enough biscuits, and out-of-work actors say they can't complain. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hiyaz's national animal is the Peregrine Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Sunni Islam.

Hiyaz is ranked 71,695th in the world and 13th in Modorra for Largest Populations, with 9.68 billion capita.
