The Free Land of Ostrysnih is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, free-roaming dinosaurs, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.787 billion Ostrysnihians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, with Education, Healthcare, and Administration also on the agenda, while Environment receives no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 29.0%.
The frighteningly efficient Ostrysnihian economy, worth 332 trillion francs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 185,885 francs, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 853,712 per year while the poor average 24,558, a ratio of 34.8 to 1.
Middle management darts to the playground after board meetings, being sent to collections is more dangerous than ever, main battle tanks stalk the woods of Ostrysnih in search of turtles, and former gun owners are finding that brandishing paintball guns isn't as satisfying as the real thing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Ostrysnih's national animal is the turtle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Ostrysnih is ranked 291,064th in the world and 448th in Bozarkia for Nicest Citizens, with 0.73 average smiles per day.
