Today, just as the news about the annual Omzian National Census went out about Omz222’s status of 1 billion population, the streets of Osaria roared into celebration as Omzian citizens there celebrated the milestone status of having more than 1 billion Omzian citizens in Omz222. Banners praising the Omzian government and military, and promoting the Omzian people and cultured were placed all around governmental buildings and museums in downtown, just as portraits of the founder of Modern Omz222, Former President Oma Zee, and the flag of Omz222 were hanged.

Despite the current conflict, Omz222 citizens still celebrated this important milestone for the Omzian history. Just as the day when the results came was declared a holiday, in excess of 300,000 Osaria citizens gathered in the Osaria downtown, as a massive parade went by Omzian Boulevard, just beside the Osaria Square, which held the 335 feet tower, the Tower of Liberation. The parade was ignited by the Omzian Homeland Defence Forces, which showed off with a group of Omzian National Guard Reserve soldiers marching with their newest combat suit and uniforms, followed by a formation of 6 Omzian Navy F-14F Tomcat II fighter jets from the Navy aerobatics squadron Thunderblades flying over the parade. Then, entertainers from various Omzian Arts Academy organizations and the Osaria Circus continued with their own presentations. Selected children from the Omzian Youths Art Academy also made appearances, carrying banners and marching. Patriotic music played, just as the entire crowd sang the national anthem [I]I Shall Follow My Motherland[/]. Governmental and Military officals were present, with a surprise “visit” by the former President Earuage Ukan, who resigned due to ill health. Security were also high.

After the parade at noon, celebrations continued. Food stands were made for those who are angry. Citizens cheered just as 3 Omzian C-130J transports went over and splashed down over 100,000 small Omzian flags, to stir up the celebration even more. Government and military officals, including the President Gagarin Vansare, General of Army Banard Klana, former President Earuage Ukan, and even some cabinet ministers and Administrative Council members made personal appearances, shaking the hands of the citizens and talking to them. Security were around these important leaders. Entertainers and bands continued across the street, playing and singing both cultural and patriotic songs.

At night, celebrations continued at the streets. Floats with the flags of Omz222 and letterings informing the population of 1 billion can be see nacross the massive Osaria Sqaure, with citizens dancing, cheering, and sitting. This is followed by a series of speeches from Former President Earuage Ukan, President Gagarin Vansare, and General Banard Klana. Citizens cheered on, as celebration slowly stopped to a halt at around midnight.

The following day is announced the “Milestone Celebration Day”, with work off for certain citizens and school off for all students. Omzian Nation will also celebrate the 53th year of the founding of Omzian Democratic Federal Republic a few months later.

OOC: Yep, and it is 1.000 billion. Not more, not less. Also a concidence that today’s the 6th month I’ve been here. Also not a day more, not a day less. Yay!
