Al-Qadim

A small country between Iraq and Saudi Arabia that appeared in the flash of a bolt from the fallout of The Change. It has become an object of fascination to the world. It appears to have been picked out of the “Arabian Knights” and dropped wholly into our world. The appearance of this country caused no small amount of consternation to the rulers of both Saudi Arabia and Iran, but little could be done since it is a NoTech Zone. The inhabitants of this mystic country have taken their displacement in stride and even welcome a limited number of visitors to their golden kingdom.
