The Empire of Sorayaa is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Emperor Huzafa bin Nasser with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.974 billion Sorayaans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Isfahan. The average income tax rate is 36.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Sorayaan economy, worth 188 trillion Rials a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 95,614 Rials, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Big Agriculture has the government by the nuts, roadside walls are being built and mother nature is paying for it, birth rates have hit an all-time low, and it turns out that money can buy you happiness. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Sorayaa's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sorayaa is ranked 30,538^th in the world and 35^th in India for Highest Food Quality, scoring 65.21 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
