The Democratic Federal Republic of Syrian Federation is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Fashir Ahmed with a fair hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-working, democratic population of 2.3 billion Syrians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Damascus. The average income tax rate is 43.0%.

The strong Syrian economy, worth 129 trillion Syrian Pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 56,375 Syrian Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

Search-and-rescue organisations are the biggest employer in the country, billions of Syrian Pounds are being poured into a space program, history textbook pages are used as impromptu tissues by distraught students, and foreign 'investors' have been taking a great interest in the new secret shuttle. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Syrian Federation's national animal is the Quraish Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Syrian Federation is ranked 100,518^th in the world and 2^nd in Rokatov for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 96.55 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
