The Muslims make up 10% of our people and most of them live in the southern part of our nation.
They celebrate Ramadhan by holding prayers in mosques and having parties with their families.

Ramadhan is observed by the Muslims in Mapletish through fasting for the entire month.The end of Ramadhan and the start of Syawal with the Hari Raya Puasa.Other people who aren't fasting respect the Muslims by not eating and drinking in front of them and by watching their speech by not adding in certain inappropriate stuff.People from other races and religion would also try their hands on fasting and to find out more about the Muslim culture,even the President stepped up to break fast with important Muslim personnel at the Yellow House lawn.

The Muslim population in Transhuman Proteus is small (2%), slightly smaller than the Christian population, and those wishing to celebrate Ramadan do as they would anywhere - fasting, family gatherings, prayer, religious study and charitable acts.

The Government makes no policy regarding this or any religious festival/holiday.

The nation of Nordengrund is largely Baptists, but Islam is the third largest religion and has recently outnumbered the Jewish population. Muslims here are not as strict as those in the Middle East. Ramadan is celebrated as any Muslim would celebrate it, but it is only recognized in the capital city.

Most of the population of Legionium is either atheist, agnostic, or adherent to Roman/Greek faith, which leaves a minority of 3.2% Muslims, the third largest religious minority after Christianity and Judaism. Ramadan is still celebrated with all the enthusiasm by the small Islamic communities spread across the country. Legionium grants freedom of religion, and holds no obstacle to the celebration of Ramadan, but does not contribute financially to any faith.

Islam is the second largest religion in Gilgameshia (the largest is Mesopotamian paganism), so yes, it is celebrated nationally.

Ramadan is observed by the Muslim citizens of WVP through abstaining from food, drink, or tobacco during the day and from sex at all times for the entire month.

That said, come Eid'l Fitr, there is much rejoicing.

Eid Mubarak!

Ramadhan cannot be celebrated openly since religion is banned in the nation of Luw. There aren't any Muslims living in the nation of Luw.

Cathanar has an extremely small population of Druze muslims.
They celebrate Ramadhan each year and have street parties at the end of the month with lots of nice food.
The more irritating sections of our society tend to hover around these banquets like wasps at a picnic.

Ramadan is widely celebrated by the Muslim communities of Canboria, who are making a comeback after their widespread persecution and expulsion by the Imperial Fascist Council, a cruel government that was overthrown in the December Revolution and has almost been driven out from the nation, although pockets of armed resistance remain. Ramadan is encouraged and supported by the National Congress and the Libertarian Socialist government, with protections in the Constitution: state-run enterprises respect their employees' and consumers' religious rights, as do worker co-operatives: the nation is extremely welcoming of all persecuted minorities and so communities have sprung up. However, schools and children do not observe Ramadan as the Constitution expressly forbids parents from forcing their children to make the incredibly personal choice of religion (this clause was relatively welcomed and unopposed by a public which faced repression and role enforcement by a cruel police state), and so only the adult population of Canboria observes Ramadan.
