The Reclamation Zone of Ostsaara is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Jion Nael with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 6.546 billion Ostsaarans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Spirituality, although Administration, Law & Order, and Welfare are also considered important, while Defense receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arosent'nerai. The average income tax rate is 57.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Ostsaaran economy, worth 181 trillion Moneik'rs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Pizza Delivery, Cheese Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 27,797 Moneik'rs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, concussed ratsball players cannot remember their lineup position, local councils have to call in dump trucks to clear parks of dinosaur droppings, and the government considers it a sacred duty to video bikini-clad beach swimmers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ostsaara's national animal is the rats, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Children of Kat'herina.

Ostsaara is ranked 281,617^th in the world and 22^nd in Zero for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 2,134.32 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
