The Voreian Armed Task Force of Syrian Arab Armed Forces is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Dr Lieutenant General Mr Spamm al-Assad with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-working, cynical population of 2.759 billion Syrians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Damascus. The average income tax rate is 67.7%.

The Syrian economy, worth 145 trillion Arab dinars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 52,763 Arab dinars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

The military is on a massive recruiting drive in advance of an invasion of Brasilistan, the welfare administration's new sweeping authority has forced the poor and needy to shop from pre-approved grocery lists, Dr Lieutenant General Mr Spamm al-Assad has been self-declared as the Most Supreme Magnificent Overlord of Everything You Ever Saw, and troop transports blacken the sky as the military commences Operation Desert Ocean. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Syrian Arab Armed Forces's national animal is the Dromedary camel, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Syrian Arab Armed Forces is ranked 115,958^th in the world and 1^st in The Grand Patriot Empire of Algerheaven for Most Cultured, scoring 65 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
