Uhm.. I realy don't wanna godmod... In any case, why? Many nations start in another planet. |

Well not many countries, particularly those with just 5 million people, are capable of sustained, long term, manned, inter-stellar travel. And there are some nations dotted around who write how they?re on another planet, but in itself, is that realistic?? |

The Ostyan territory on the map is meanwhile not manned. The whole Ostyan populaion is on that planet, it started there, and it will move in the right time and if needed. |

One thing that gets me is the listed population of 500,000,000 when your description in your national biography shows much less than that, any explanation? |

Can you tell us more about the Ostyan Forest Wolf? Obviously we have none of these in Vilita, but would be interested in seeing how it related to our own breeds of Wolves, and possibly learning about the ways they might interact, either similarly or differently, with our own native Jungle Cats... |
