St. Oz (Ozian:Ստ՟ Ոժի tr. St. Oži) or Ozia (Ozian:Ոժի tr. Oži), officially known as The Divine People's Republic of the O People (Ozian:Սանքթտլժա Բոբցլիէ Ռբպւվլիքը դեվ Ոժի tr. Sanktizha Populiē Repuvklikë dev Oži) is a country located at the mouth of Cefnor. It is a theocratic socialist republic comprised of 19 different districts, three of which are Autonomous People's Republics. Ozia's location made it a historical crossroad for commerce, culture, and science, and it has been recognized as a dominant nation in the Cefnor region since the creation of the first Divine Republic in 910 BCE under the leadership of the First Listener. An early Dunedain culture called the Praemians settled on the Ozian archipeligo 10,000 years ago, and desert peoples from central Pelagis known as the Frezhi settled and assimilated into Praemian culture near the strait around 5000 years ago. The Frezhi assimilation created a unique caste within Praemia named the O people and were repressed by the Dunedain nobles. The Ozian people are predominantly descended by the O people, but due to its historically strategic area and strict anti-slavery religious laws, the modern Ozian ethnicity is a mixture of Libians, Pelagians, Jutensans, Myrorians, Eluvatarans, Letonnese, Austrasians, and Neustrians.

Iseltov-Parpaski Zentrale Etrepoza

The 'Iseltov-Parpaski Zentrale Etrepoza' or more commonly called 'd'Zen', is the official central bank of St Oz. As per history, the enormous amount of equity that the Iseltov and Parpaski direships enjoy is due in part by the Greatest Heist, when the two conwomen, Iseltov and Parpaski, stole the entire treasury of the early Haradrim Empire in the 8th century CE. As the story goes, the two hid their enormous wealth of gold on the island of La Sava. The two combined their shares of gold to form a single banking institution that not only held monopoly power over Ozian banks, but that wanted to spill their power and influence into other nation's banking systems. Later in the 18th century the bank, known at the time only as the Iseltov-Parpaski Etrepoza, became largely what it is today with the endorsement of the Sankta as an emergency institution for failing banks. In exchange for special powers and monetary power, the Sankta and Ozian Senate declared that the bank maintain the PEI's price stability. Later in 1927, the senate expanded their powers to gathering economic statistics and closing unemployment gaps. D'Zen is ran by two chairpersons, one nominated by the Iseltov direship and theo ther nominated by the Parpaski direship. Both nominations must be approved by the Senate, Sankta, and Council of Economic Experts. The Council of Economic Experts will designate one of council members to act as a delegation from the council, that title is "Grand Statistician". The PEI is the oldest fiat currency in the world and has enjoyed a long tradition of price stability thanks in part to d'Zen. D'Zen uses very aggressive means to stabilize its currency, and in three occasions have purposefully engineered an economic recession to do this. Ozian economists like to boast that it is the most secure currency in the world.
