The OIS-0270 of OIS Kratos is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its ritual sacrifices, avant-garde cinema, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.404 billion OIS Kratosians 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, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 45.3%.
The strong OIS Kratosian economy, worth 89.6 trillion Halicarnassuses 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 large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. 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 63,832 Halicarnassuses, with the richest citizens earning 5.9 times as much as the poorest.
Society and government have been organized according to a feudal hierarchy, OIS Kratos successfully hosted the Ordo Imperialia Olympics, the new Refuse Hills housing development is under construction, and the military perceives nations hit by natural disasters as "easy pickings". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. OIS Kratos's national animal is the White Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
OIS Kratos is ranked 30,051st in the world and 83rd in Ordo Imperialia for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 5,135.4 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
