The Sultanate of Slavel is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Padisah with an iron fist, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.237 billion Slavelians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Palace of Lords. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 26.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Slavelian economy, worth a remarkable 1,522 trillion Servants a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 184,863 Servants, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,685,832 per year while the poor average 2,256, a ratio of 747 to 1.

Commercial jingles are the nation's greatest export, the sick are forced to play medicine lotteries to survive, the government guarantees extra-soft tissues to fire-snorting elephants, and potatoes are known for their lead aftertaste. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Slavel's national animal is the Sheep, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Ordinance of Slaves and Masters.

Slavel is ranked 31,795^th in the world and 1^st in ACA for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 26,874.44 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
