 * Military Infrastructure: Saudi military infrastructure is very grouped, compared to Iran, where there are targets all across the country. In order to combat this, the Saudi government is spending US$10 billion on creating local military bases across the country. This will reduce the dependence on specific areas for defence against Iran. The project will be completed by 2027.
 * The Liberal Kingdom: King Mohammed takes the first steps towards an integrated democracy and an equal nation. The five-year plan outlines a gradual progression towards a progressive nation, as the role of Prime Minister will become separate from the monarchy. However, this will not become immediate. Although the first general elections shall be held in 2026, all candidates will be chosen by the King, and the candidate cannot be female. Saudi General Elections will follow the first-past-the-post system. Women will also gradually gain more rights, with the King looking to abolish "male guardian" laws.
 * Obesity Epidemic: One of the hardest goals to be reached by 2030 is to increase the ratio of individuals exercising at least once a week from 13% of the population to 40%. In order to deal with this, King Mohammed is introducing a sugar tax on products with sugar in them. The new King is also creating the Health Evaluation Commission. The HEC will consider "healthy" products; if they meet HEC standards, their production will be subsidized by the Saudi government. The Saudi government will also invest in the first "vertical farm" in the nation - a skyscraper filled with automated farms. At the base of the building, there will be a food market. The first of these vertical farms will be built in the center of one of Riyadh's residential districts.
 * Royal Saudi Arabian Armed Forces: The Royal Saudi Arabian Armed Forces consists of the Royal Saudi Land Forces, the Royal Saudi Air Force, the Royal Saudi Navy, the Royal Saudi Air Defense, and the Royal Saudi Strategic Missile Force.
 * Personnel: As the population increases so does the number of those fit for service. There are now 15.7 million Saudi Arabians fit for service. Therefore, King Muhammed is introducing compulsory conscription for 18-24-year-olds (men only) who are not in education, increasing the number of reserve personnel from 25,000 to 535,000. Active personnel has not changed too much, only increasing from 231,000 to 261,000.
 * Gulf Operations: With the increasing tensions in the Middle East, the Royal Saudi Navy has increased its presence in the Persian Gulf. Along with this, Saudi Arabia is undergoing the construction of an Aircraft Carrier. It was under construction in 2022, and so will be complete next year.
 * Yemeni Civil War: In conjuction with Omani forces, the RSAF starts bombing raids on Al-Qaeda's military bases.
 * Royal Saudi Land Forces: The RSLF is the largest branch of the Saudi Arabia Armed Forces. They have 80,000 personnel, 1,342 Combat Tanks, 5,865 Armored Fighting Vehicles, 597 Self-Propelled Artillery, 504 Towed Artillery, and 387 Rocket Projectors.
 * Royal Saudi Air Force: The RSAF is the aviation branch of the Saudi Arabia Armed Forces. They have 65,000 personnel, 217 Fighter Aircraft, 265 Attack Aircraft, 241 Transport Aircraft, 263 Trainer Aircraft, and 31 Attack Helicopters.

 * Diplomacy


 * Oman: A treaty was signed with Oman detailing a new partnership between Saudi Arabia and Oman.
 * Treaty of Muscat
 * Saudi Arabia will leave ARMA.
 * Saudi Arabia and Oman will install a Kingdom in Yemen.
 * The Kingdom of Yemen will leave ARMA.
 * The Arabian Union will be formed (like the EU) with Yemen, Oman, and Saudi Arabia. Capital temporarily in Salalah (Oman), but a new capital (عاصِمة) will be created between the three nations.
 * After the Yemeni Civil War has ended, Yemen will be presented with a secession referendum (if it wins, North Yemen becomes the Republic of North Yemen and South Yemen becomes the Kingdom of South Yemen).
 * Arab Regional Military Alliance: Saudi Arabia leaves to pursue peace.
 * Turkey and Iran: The Arabian Union requests public negotiations on a plan of action regarding peace in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
 * Arabian Union: Our priority should be the Yemeni conflict.
 * United States of America: We will no longer be your puppet as Israel has. Saudi Arabia is a sovereign, independent state.
 * India: The Arabian Union and India should have cordial relations.
 * Houthi Yemen: On behalf of the Arabian Union, we demand that you relinquish your claim as the legitimate Yemeni government.
 * Hadi Yemen: On behalf of the Arabian Union, we demand that you relinquish your claim as the legitimate Yemeni government.
 * Jordan: Jordan, we offer Talal, cousin of King Abdullah, the throne of Yemen. Also, try democracy. It's nice. Your Crown Prince (Hussein) certainly thinks so. And so does Talal. Maybe you should leave ARMA and join the Arabian Union instead. We will protect you. All ARMA seeks to do is expand American influence in the Middle East and pick a fight with the Turkish or the Iranians.
