Latifid Caliphate

The Latifid Caliphate [Al' Kh'alifa' al' Latifiyya] is a large Arab State encompassing the territory of almost all the Arabian Peninsula and parts of Egypt. It was formed during the Recovery Period of Europe, where the European continent recovers from a devastating nuclear war. The Latifid Caliphate first started out as a small Arab State with only the 'Caliphate' under it's name after commencing a 'jihad' on the Middle Eastern countries of Litelion, Persia, and Anatolia. It enjoys significant influence and strong defense against any aggressor in Europe, although the country always looks to expanding within need.

Government
The government of the Latifid Caliphate could be considered of a religious theocracy with parts of democratic elections put into the system, where Caliphs could be voted to be leaders of the country and holding full responsibility over it's economy, political objectives, and military. The government always overreacts by installing martial law whenever a war is declared, or a minor disaster occurs, rendering the government extremely paranoid of anything that might affect the country, either on a large or miniscule scale.

Economy
The Latifidi economy is a very stable one that could afford to keep the entire Latifidi armed forces on active status and still pump out a large income to sustain the nation. The economy mainly relies on it's oil fields and coal mining industry, although trading is also beginning to become a major factor in Latifidi economy. Latifids use the Riyal, which is equal to around one US Dollar. ($0.98)
