OEF != ISAF https://web.archive.org/web/20220120001326/http://www.nato.i...

OEF is an NATO Operation, Austrias policy is not to join any International primary Military Organization.

OK, good. So ... 3 soldiers

(about 20% of Tonga's contribution)

[mikhailfranco]

Austria: GDP $516.0b, pop 9.0m

Tonga : GDP $000.5b, pop 0.1m

So Tonga 1/1000 GDP and ~1/100 pop contributed 5x more soldiers than Austria.

There's a Coldplay song:

Tonga: "Para-para-para-dise"

Austria: "Para-para-para-site"
