Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Kingdom of Oligard is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Mr Saj with an even hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 3.404 billion Oligardians 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.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oligard City. The average income tax rate is 51.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Oligardian economy, worth 341 trillion Tarovs a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 100,199 Tarovs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

What goes down must come up, tabloids coo over Mr Saj's expected child, local mafias have a tough time disposing of dead snitches without catching the attention of recycling authorities, and the number of deaths due to poor fungus identification is mushrooming. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oligard's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianism.

Oligard is ranked 28,458^th in the world and 83^rd in United Kingdom for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 227.41 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
