The Dominion of Sheik is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, public floggings, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 1.13 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 Industry. The average income tax rate is 32.5%.

The strong Sheikian economy, worth 56.8 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 165,876^th in the world and 32^nd in Square Enix for Highest Average Incomes, with 50,229.51 Standard Monetary Units.
