The Kingdom of Old World Order is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by King Darius Banovic I with an iron fist, and renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, zero percent divorce rate, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 7.86 billion Croats of old world 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Delminium. The average income tax rate is 94.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Croatian economy, worth a remarkable 1,135 trillion Kunas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 144,466 Kunas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

There is no such thing as an innocent fling in the Croatian military, the constant playing of Merry Birthday on Croatian radio has led to calls for the song to be classified as a crime against humanity, unemployed mercenaries drift the country looking for new careers, and fruit vendors are encouraging a life of crime in their advertising. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Old World Order's national animal is the Dinaric Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Old World Order is ranked 69,214^th in the world and 45^th in Catholic for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 110.42 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
