I know the history’s the same as in Kaiserreich, but for those unfamiliar to it, could you expand upon what you mean. Maybe a quick summary of Argentina’s history. Once that’s done, then it’ll be acceptable by the OP.

NS Name: Free States of Agnosicstan
RP Name: Emirate of Jabal Shammar, Emirate of Ha'il, Emirate of the House of Rashid
Capital: Ha'il
Territory: (Image)
Cores: Arabia (Hijaz, Nejd, Yemen, Oman)
Population: 1.75 Million
Type of Government: Absolute Monarchy
Government Explaination: Due to the nature of the tribes, Jabal Shammar is essentially a confederated alliance under the House of Rashid. Most day-to-day runnings are done by tribal leaders, but all report to the Emir
Leader(s): Saʿūd bin Abdulaziz Al Rashid
Party or Coalition in Power: House of Rashid
Executive Title: Emir
State Ideology: Islamic Autocracy
State Language(s): Arabic
Other Language(s): Kurdish
Ethnicity Breakdown: 64% Arabian, 35% Iraqi, 1% Kurdish
Religion Breakdown: 94% Sunni Islam, 4% Shia Islam, 2% Other
Flag:(Image)
National Anthem: None / Uncertain
National Motto: Allāh, Al-Waṭan, Al-Malīk (God, the Country, the King)
Demonym: Rashidi
Map Color: Dark Pink
Technology: Steampunk
Machine ideas: N/A
Public Goals: Uniting Arabia under the House of Rashid, with the blessings of the Ottomans. The economic and technological growth of all Arabia, as well as the extraction of her natural resources.
Private Goals: Freeing all Arabic and Islamic people's from foreign oppressors, the annexation of Syria, the Levant and the Holy Cities into a greater Arabic State and freedom for Egypt, Libya, Tunisia and Morocco from European oppression.
Military name: Royal Rashidi Armed Forces
Military branches: Royal Rashidi Land Forces, Royal Rashidi Navy, Royal Rashidi Cavalry, Iraqi Volunteer Corps
Total military size: ~10,450
Breakdown of ground force(s): Around 5,000 tribal cavalry, with 2,300 militia-based tribal infantry. There are exactly 3,150 members of the Iraqi Volunteer Corps.
Breakdown of naval force(s): Several dozen trade ships.
Breakdown of air force(s): N/A
Breakdown of other branch(es): N/A
Extra military information: Mostly using equipment given by the Ottomans, or stolen from the British or Saudi's, the army of the House of Rashid consists mostly of tribal militia's and desert cavalry, well-suited for warfare that typically occurs in Arabia. It is closer to a militia than a real army, and is highly de-centralised. The Iraqi volunteer corps are much more centralised, using techniques learned from the Ottomans, however these are very limited in number.
GDP: Around $7.68 million
GDP per Capita: $438.8 per person
Currency: Rashidi Riyal
Currency and value of currency compared to USD: 1 Rashidi Riyal = 0.13 American dollar
Major Domestic Issues: Large influx of Iraqi refugees, straining Tribal relations as well as the food supply of the Emirate. De-centralised nature prevents serious use of the Emir's power. Tribal and nomadic nature of the Arabian people does not allowed for much industrialisation.
Major Foreign Issues: Recognised as within the Ottoman Sphere of influence, hampering diplomacy with other powers. Little more than an Ottoman puppet-state.
History:
The House of Rashid has ruled of the Shammar region for exactly one-hundred years. Over those hundred years, it has, time and time again, proven itself a loyal ally to the Ottomans. In the great war, when Britain tried to tempt it with promises of land and freedom, it rejected the temptations and remained staunch supporters of the Ottoman state. For its loyalty, it recieved nothing. There were no rewards from the Sultan in Constantinople. No land, no riches, and no weapons. Many in the Emirate were, understandably, outraged by the Sultans betrayal, none more so than the House of Rashid.
They did not show this outrage openly, however, for the Emir of Jabal Shammar is no fool. It has been theorised that black gold lays under the deserts of Arabia, a wealth more valuable than any outrage. Tragedy occured within the Empire, and the Iraqi people paid the price. Some fled south. The influx of Iraqi refugees, while straining the Emirate and the relations between tribal leaders, other Emirs and the Emir of the House of Rashid, has also presented an opportunity. The House of Rashid has always been accommodating to foreigners, and when their brothers of the faith, fleeing from terror and oppression, needed a place to flee to, the Emirate opened its arms to offer sanctuary to the people of Iraq. Many were allowed to settle in the city of Ha'il, and the city has been enriched by an influx of people, becoming the largest and greatest in all of Arabia. The Bazran palace sits at the heart of a city worthy of being the capital of all Arabs.
However, these refugees have put a great strain on the two most valuable resources in the deserts; food and water. Imports of food have alleviated this, but badly wounded the already small economy of the House of Rashid. Should the black gold of the deserts lay undiscovered for too long, is it likely that the economy of the Emirate will continue to crumble.

Not my best work, but a good example of nation RP, instead of my usual Character RPs.

The GDP is entirely guesswork, I kinda had to pluck a number out of thin air. The population is also an educated guess; half of Arabia's population at the time, plus some accounting for Iraqi refugees. Please tell me if it feels unrealistic and I will try to adjust it.
Everything is good except for the Population. I’d imagine it being around the 600,000-700,000 range. Once that’s fixed, then it’s accepted.
