Trivia
Obristan's motto is
GAMES
"Obristan above all."[4]
This is similar to

ANIME
Arstotzka's "Glory to
Arstotzka". The motto
might be a reference to

MOVIES "Germany above all"

which is the first
stanza of the
TV "Deutschlandlied", first
written in 1841 and
used wholly or in part
VIDEO as the German anthem
since 1922.[5] Due to
the connotations
WIKIS developed during Nazi
rule (1933–1945), from
wars of aggression to
START A
WIKI
genocide, today the
anthem only consists
of the third stanza.

It may also be a
play on the fact
that Obristan is
the northernmost
country in the
game, thus it is
"above all" of the
other countries.
