Sultanate of Egypt


 * Government: Ever since the Sultan's Revolution in 2020, Egypt has been a sultanate.
 * Politics:
 * Royal Family: The first sultan of the new Sultanate of Egypt was Mohamed Ali, Prince of the Sa'id, the leader of the Sultan's Revolution, aged 41 at the time. In 2022, however, he suffered from a heart attack and later died in the hospital. The son of the late sultan, Fouad Zaher Hassan al-Usra al-'Alawiyya, Prince of the Sa'id, aged 14 was given a regency council . The young prince had them all killed and took over his father's throne two years before the legitimate age to take it, 16. His Majesty Fouad Zaher Hassan is an extremely conservative, charismatic, and intelligent boy. As the throne of Egypt has been an absolute monarchy since the Revolution, His Majesty has introduced numerous amounts of policies that appease the conservative, religious majority. His Majesty has two sons, named Shaahir  al-Usra al-'Alawiyya, age 3,  and Tawfeeq al-Usra al-'Alawiyya, age 1. Shaahir is the current Prince of the Sa'id, heir to the Egyptian throne.


 * Laws and Policies:
 * Full Implement of Sharia Law: Before this law, sharia applied in personal status issues (such as marriage, divorce, inheritance, and child custody). After the law's implementation, sharia now applies in full, covering personal status issues as well as criminal proceedings.
 * Censorship: Online news and media sites, such as YouTube, BBC, CNN, etc. are either banned outright or heavily censored, censoring anti-Islamic articles and videos as well as news and videos of Zalgo in order to get rid of any possible panic due to it.
 * Conscription: Military service is required for those who are unemployed or those who earn <100,000 Le every year.
 * Fouad's Secret Purges: Multiple purges of the government have been done in order to rid it of liberal anti-Islamists.


 * Military:
 * Wars and Conficts:
 * War for the Sudan: On January 2nd, 2029, three supposedly Sudanese men, sporting AKM assault rifles, opened fire on a crowd of Egyptian citizens and tourists in Cairo Tower. His Majesty the Sultan, along with most of his loyalists in the government, considered this as an act of war, and called for the full annexation of Sudan lest they be damned by the one true god Allah. Of course, Sudan denied this demand, and thus Egypt declared war on the Sudan.


 * Egyptian Armed Forces:
 * Egyptian Army:
 * Egyptian Maritime Force:
 * Egyptian Air Force:


 * Analytics:
 * Economy: Since he turned 18, His Majesty has implemented a few economic policies to help reduce inflation. The first policy is to increase interest rates through the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve's rate is the rate at which banks borrow money from the government, but, in order to make money, they must lend it at higher rates. So, when the Federal Reserve increases its interest rate, banks have no choice but to increase their rates as well. When banks increase their rates, less people want to borrow money because it costs more to do so if that money accrues interest. So, spending drops, prices drop and inflation slows. The second method is to increase reserve requirements on the amount of money banks are legally required to keep on hand to cover withdraws. The more money banks are required to hold back, the less they have to lend to consumers. If they have less to lend, consumers will borrow less, which will decrease spending. The third method is to directly or indirectly reduce the money supply by enacting policies that encourage reduction of the money supply. Two examples of this include calling in debts that are owed to the government and increasing the interest paid on bonds so that more investors will buy them. The latter policy raises the exchange rate of the currency due to higher demand and, in turn, increases imports and decreases exports. Both of these policies will reduce the amount of money in circulation because the money will be going from banks, companies and investors pockets and into the government’s pocket where they can control what happens to it.
 * Infrastructure and Public Services: Improved.
 * Demographics:
 * Population: About 118.3 million people, most of which are Egyptian.


 * Diplomacy:
