General

The Billion People of Old Ogastein is a massive, devout nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 1.001 billion have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Law & Order, with areas such as Social Welfare and Public Transport receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 91%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, followed by Information Technology and Woodchip Exports.

The government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments, retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites, research into 'designer babies' is banned, and college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Old Ogastein's national animal is the great horned owl, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the opal.

Old Ogastein is also a UN member receiveing 24 endorsements.

On Oct. 18 2006 Old Ogastein adopted a 2nd offical language, German.
