The Dominion of Sheik is a massive, safe nation, notable for its public floggings, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 1.257 billion Sheikians are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The medium-sized, moralistic, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 32.5%.

The strong Sheikian economy, worth 63.1 trillion rupees a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 50,229 rupees, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Government agents stalk the aisles of grocery stores for out-of-stock medications, banana distribution among collective farm workers is an important topic in public discourse, justice is blinding, and the black market offers sweet deals. Crime is relatively low, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Sheik's national animal is the horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Sheik is ranked 206,728^th in the world and 15^th in Square Enix for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 211.07 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
