The Holy Imperium of Ostermarch is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Maximilian with an iron fist, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, free-roaming dinosaurs, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.083 billion Imperials are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of El Escorial. The average income tax rate is 94.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Imperial economy, worth a remarkable 6,541 trillion crowns a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 433,686 crowns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Whenever pilots have to bail out the government bails out their company, hundreds of teenagers die every year at the Imperial Hungry Games, unpopular scientists are shunned by name, and asking 'a penny for your thoughts?' draws law enforcement response. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ostermarch's national animal is the demigryph, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Imperial Cult.
Ostermarch is ranked 294,578th in the world and 1,407th in Europe for Most Cultured, scoring 49 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
