Nuclear infrastructure, but no nuclear weapons.

Weapon systems must either currently exist in service, or be straightforward extrapolations of in service weapon systems. Bonus: systems that are in prototype status can be taken in limited quantites. Example: F-35 can be acquired in low numbers, but can't be in widespread service. Limit is 1 flight of aircraft, or 1 battalion or equivalent of other weaponry. Ballistic and cruise missile submarines don't exist.

You can choose any nations weapon systems for your own. You can mix and match (have Russian tanks and American IFVs)

Time scale: 1 month = 1 year. Year begins on the first of the month.

Ice's spreadsheet to help organize all this is at: http://rogueice2k3.googlepages.com/Blan ... cation.xls

I'll put up examples of regiments to make it a bit easier to create an army, since it's currently running fairly complicated.

5th Generation Fighters.

On the 5th Gen fighter thing, it's a maximum of 1% of your total points, rounded up to the nearest point. Which means it goes as follows:

Imperium - 30 pts = 28 fighters (7 flights)
Tsardom - 15 pts = 12 fighters (3 flights)
Kingdom - 8 pts (rounded up from 7.5) = 8 fighters (2 flights)
Principality - 5 pts (rounded up from 4.2) = 4 fighters (1 flight)
Duchy - 3 pts (rounded up from 2.1) = 0 fighters (sucks to be you )

GDPs Per Country.

Country Profile for Indhopal



Formal Name: 2nd. Republic of Indhopal

Capital: Fenraven

Geography

Size: Approximately 1,220,000 sq km (?)

Topography: Indhopal is a large state, and boasts a variety of terrain types. The west coast is primarily temperate rain forest. The Blackheart mountain range runs north/south along nearly the entire length of the country. These mountains have a profound effect on the climate, allowing the forest’s in the east to flourish while the western side of the country is primarily Savanna in the Northwest going to temperate plans in the southwest. The waters off Indhopal’s coast are notorious among mariners for their multiple islands, sand bars, and reefs.

Climate: Indhopal is mostly temperate is climate, but the northwest is considerably warmer and drier than the rest of the republic.

Society
Population: Indhopal has a population of around 17 million people, mostly concentrated in cities on the east coast. Large areas are sparsely populated.

Ethnic Groups: Indhopal is made up of a mix of settler’s from the Shroomanian colonial period (40%) and descendants from pre colonial tribes (60%), the most important of which is the Muyyatin people who once ruled a tribal confederacy of the same name. Recently around 500,000 refugees from the CFR have poured into the country as well. They are somewhat resented as they are often poor and their communities are plagued b high crime rates.

Education: Indhopal has a well rated public school system, and college is paid for by the state for those students that can pass the competitive entry exams. Indhopal manages to do a good job of educating its many rural residents through well funded programs. Famously some teachers commute to work via airplane to serve the most isolated communities.

Health: The health care system is a socialized system that focuses heavily on preventative care. Providing care for those in rural areas remains a challenge, however. Care has stagnated in recent years due to slow economic growth and higher military spending.

Economy
Salient Features: With a GDP of around $1.1 trillion, Indhopal has a diversified economy that includes everything from forestry to high tech manufacturing. Large sectors of the economy remain agriculture and lumber production, however. Fishermen also make a good living off of the abundant sea life that lives off Indhopal’s shores.

Industry: Most of Indhopal’s manufactured goods go towards satisfying the Frequesuean market. A wide variety of consumer goods and staple items such as concrete are produced. Indhopal’s well developed arms industry also competes for mostly local contracts.

Energy Sources: Indhopal has a modern electrical generation system which mainly relies on a mix of nuclear and coal fueled plants. A small local oil industry also operates. Many of the smaller rural communities also use wind turbines to produce their own electricity locally.

Government and Politics

Indhopal is a democratic republic with a strong executive branch, similar to France. There are two houses of parliament, led by the prime minister (whose main purview is domestic politics) and the President (who is responsible for foreign policy). This is the second Republic, so named because the constitution was changed 25 years ago to make the political system more competitive.

For much of Indhopal’s history, one party, the Independence party, controlled the government. Now days the political spectrum is much broader and the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC), which ousted the Independence party and opened up the political process, often heads the governing coalition these days. Minor parties, from communists to Muyyatin separatists are also represented in the Legislature.

The North Frequesuan Trust



Flag description: Two equal horizontal bands of blue (top) and red with two gold stars superimposed in the middle

Government

Chief of state: President Sidney Hank

Legislative branch: The Syndicate. The members of the Syndicate are nominated by the President, then confirmed by the member state legislatures (respectively the San Dorado Board of Directors and the Corporate Congress of Coilerburg). Members of the Syndicate serve terms of five years each, and concern themselves with intergovernmentalist and supranationalist matters, such as economic integration, cooperation on law enforcement and justice, regional development, defence and external economic-political policy. To achieve its multitudinous goals members of the Syndicate form separate committees, each of which is headed by a Commissioner. The most important of these are:

• Financial Committee (FiCo) Iago Morgan
  Committee on Foreign Relations (CoFoR) Charlie Duquesne
  Committee on Business and Justice (CBJ) Cordelia Cordova
  Committee for the Armed Forces (CAF) James Eckhart

The Syndicate has its main offices in the NFT headquarters:

The NFT headquarters



Geography

Area: 469,158 km²

Member states: San Dorado, Coilerburg

Overseas Departments: The Overseas Departments are NFT-administered territories outside of the member states. These territories have varying legal status and different levels of autonomy and reside directly under the Syndicate, although all have local representation, and the right to vote in Presidential elections. Overseas Departments have existed since 2015, when Syndicate policy dictated that Paradise be incorporated as an a Overseas Department.

From a legal and administrative standpoint, departments are very different from member states: according to the NFT Statute of Investment, member states are allowed to make their own laws, except for some specific areas (like defense, international and intracorporate relations, international trade and currency, courts and administrative law), as provided in the Statute, that are reserved to the Syndicate. The Departments however are governed by autonomy statutes that put them directly under management of the Syndicate and its local appointees. Therefore Syndicate regulations generally apply (civil code, penal code, administrative law, social laws, stockholder laws et cetera).

Foreign Legion
Founded in 2015, the Foreign Legion is a unique unit separate from the regular North Frequesuan Army. The legion was specifically created as a unit for foreign volunteers, to be commanded by NFT officers; it is however also open to NFT stockholders, who amount to 24% of recruits. The legion was conceived of as a convenient way to recruit and dispose of the numerous insurgents, rebels, bandits and former soldiers roaming the Frequesuan interior.

As of 2016 the Foreign Legion is stationed on Paradise Island overseas department in Norther Velaria. It is composed of two units:

1st Half-Brigade (800 men)

• 1 command & support company
  1 maintenance company
  1 recce squadron
  1 infantry company
  1 engineer company

2nd Foreign Infantry Brigade (1,200 men)

• 1 command & logistics company
  1 support company
  1 light recce company
  4 combat company

NFT Security Forces
Uniformed security services of the NFT. These forces in peacetime are governed by the Central Trust Committee or member nation governments, but during wartime the agency reports to the President of the Trust and the Commissioner for the Armed Forces.

North Frequesuan Coast Guard
In addition to being a military branch at all times, the NFCG is unique among the armed forces in that it is also a maritime law enforcement agency (with jurisdiction both domestically and in international waters) and has jurisdiction not only in NFT waters but also in Sabikan territorial waters (although its jurisdiction is limited there).

Citidef
The City Defence Forces (short form: Citidef) is a reserve military force composed of militia members or units under nationally recognized active armed force service for the Corporate Republic of San Dorado. Their task is to assist police forces during periods of heavy urban unrest. Citidef occasionally is involved in light combat duties in support of NFA units. Citidef forces are composed of six independent mechanized battalions subordinated to the Central Command. Their equipment consists mostly of light armoured vehicles (AMX 10 P, Dunecat, Antlion) and light helicopters (UH-1 Bad Penny) with some towed gun support.


Coilerburg Defence Forces
The CDF are a citizen-militia made up mainly of army veterans who now combine a military role or career with a civilian career. They are not normally kept under arms and their main role is be available to fight when a nation mobilizes for total war or to defend against invasion. CDF troops train one weekend every month. Their equipment is generally fairly top-notch, owing mostly to the fact that the disbandment of the Grand Army after the ill-fated invasion of Sabika resulted in an enormous amount of excess military materiel, which is now being employed and maintained by the CDF.


Constabulary Corps
The Coilerburg Constabulary is the national gendarmerie of Coilerburg, policing both the military and civilian populations. The Constabulary is a branch of armed forces, and is technically the first corps of the Coilerburg army, although it has not fought with the army since Iler’s War. The Corps is highly visible: In times of civic unrest their distinctive blue-black uniforms are a common sight everywhere. They have a reputation for being tough but comparatively fair, although there have been notable incidents where the Constabulary have acted with what was later deemed to have been ‘excessive force’. SWAT teams, riot control teams, special crimes divisions and the Presidential honour guard are all parts of the Constabulary, as well as a Mobile Unit Division: two brigades trained specifically to deal with national emergencies.


Armed Interdiction Police
If the Constabulary Corps is generally well-liked as a tough-but-fair police force, its San Doradan equivalent is almost universally feared and loathed. Its members comprise the dreaded Armed Interdiction Police Squads, frequently simply referred to as ‘Apes’ by the populace of the Sprawl. AIP make up the special, highly mobile task forces needed to keep the peace when riots break out in San Dorado. They also provide SWAT teams and counter-terrorism units. The AIP is organized in precincts that exist distinct from the Metropolitan Police. In times of war AIP officers are mobilized to fight in the defence of the corporation, and their training looks more like that of soldiers than of police officers. The sight of them screaming through the streets on their armoured riot bikes is enough to make all but the boldest rioter turn and run.

The Old Dominion
Population: 130 mil(80 in the OD Proper, 30 in former East Shepistan, 10 in former Shepistan/St Kitteridge/Kanawaha)

Capital: Williamsburg

Government type: Federal Monarchy with a strong Chief Executive.

The continent of Shepistan had once been ruled by the Shepistani Kingdoms and Powhatan Confederacy. In 989 Leif "The Unlucky"* Shroomsson made landfall and attempted to set up a colony at L'Axe Meadows. The Shepistani Kingdom of Frederick made war on the colony, and the colony sent word to the Old World for aide.

Adventurers swarmed into the country, and a new military order, the Knights of the Dominion, was formed. The force defeated the Shepistani kingdom, and gradually intermingled with the Powhatan Confederacy until a new nation, the Old Dominion(the "original" lost in the mists of history) was formed.

Since 1672 the Territorial Army has been the primary defender of the nation. In order to vote, once must serve in the army. Gradually the Old Dominion expanded in wars of increasing ferocity with the Shepstani kingdoms. By 1798 the Old Dominion had reached it's current borders, and the law was adjusted. Now, a 8%(additional) income tax was imposed on non citizens. This citizen militia has pulled the Old Dominion, so horribly outnumbered by Shepistan, out of the fire many times. Nowadays every citizen-soldier is issued a Chesapeake Arms 680 and 50 rounds upon completion of the 2 year active duty requirement.

The Old Dominion's eternal enemy is Shepistan, the successor to most of the Shepistani Kingdoms. In the past 100 years 4 major wars have been fought between the two countries.

With the destruction of Shepistan, the Old Dominion has become the leading country of the continent of Shepland. Indeed, the only remaining independent nation is Augustine. The Old Dominion is in the middle of a economic recovery, and is currently undergoing a massive restructuring of it's military, shifting from the "garrison" mentality to "Expeditionary and Continental Defense." To prevent further conflicts, the Old Dominion has led the way in establishing the OICAS. The shift has led to new citizen tracks, such as the CCC, rather than just the military to be created.

The Most Serene Republic of Ninhursag

Background
One of the youngest nations in the world, the Most Serene Republic of Ninhursag is an environmentally stunning yet alarmingly isolationist nation. Its conservationist, intelligent population of 830 thousand enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; all others are viewed with suspicion.


History
The culmination of a two hundred year project, the Most Serene Republic of Ninhursag was only recently declared an independent state. The island was first purchased away from the local population and the Byzantine Empire in the early 1800s. All human populations were evicted over the next five years and all human settlement destroyed. The island was allowed to return to nature until the Great Continental War when territorial control of some areas, the territory that now constitutes the nation's two military reserves, was transferred back to the Byzantine Empire for the duration of both the Great Continental War and the Second World War in exchange for future recognition of sovereignty. Sometime in the late 1960s the nation's first arcology began construction in the northern plains and the first drafts of the nation's future constitution were written and debated. The nation's finalized constitution went into effect upon completion of Kun-lun Arcology project in 1978. Over the next ten years five more arcologies would be constructed and opened.

Economy
Economic Overview: Ninhursag has a technologically advanced market economy that suffers from higher taxes and tariffs and lower growth than its neighbors. Due to strict environmental protection laws most mineral resources are only exploited under very strict controls which limits the nation's potential economic growth. In addition the entire population of the country are permitted to only live in arcologies, which are expensive to build and maintain. Despite these issues unemployment is minimal and government finances are sound.
The country has turned to the production of eco-friendly technologies (such as non-petrolium biofuels and varieties of solar panels) as a source of income with moderate success. Timber is farmed for the production of paper goods and export to nearby nations as lumber. Various fruits (mostly citrus and grapes) and bio-mass (mostly varieties of fish) are also farmed for export. The country also has a large services sector, specifically tourism and financial services, and a large recycling industry capable of receiving unprocessed recyclates from other nations. Some light manufacturing exists although this activity primarily supports the military and public infrastructure.
GDP: equivalent to $350 billion USD
GDP Growth Rate: 2%
Public Debt: 6% of GDP
note: government is prohibited by the constitution from taking on any debt except for the express purpose of maintaining a market for risk-free securities (limited to 10% of GDP); a monetary reserve is maintained in a separate trust for the purpose of providing resources in case of extreme emergency
Current Account Balance: equivalent to $50 billion USD
Currency (Code): Ninhursag dollar (RND)
Fiscal Year: Calendar Year


Communications
Telecommunications System: domestic: modern fiber-optic integrated services (buried cable); 3G digital network with rapidly growing use of mobile-cellular telephones
international: multiple modern submarine communications cable connections to the Byzantine Empire and the Crimson Star Republic; tropospheric scatter microwave radio relay for other nations; 4 experimental satellite-earth relay stations
Radio Broadcast stations: AM 2, FM 9
Television Broadcast stations: 5
Internet country code: .msrn


Transportation
Airports: 4, all paved with runways greater than 3 km

Military service age and obligation: 17 years of age for voluntary military service (all personnel receive a minimum of 18 weeks of training). Age of military eligibility 17 - 50. Conscription is banned except in response to an extreme long-term emergency.
Major Assets: The Ministry of Defense controls two military reservations and divides all military forces between the two. Al Araf Military Reservation serves as home base/port for all forces making up the western commands and Qusur Military Reservation serves as home base/port for all forces making up the eastern commands. Expeditionary or foreign deployed forces are drawn from these two commands on an as needed basis.

IRTv2 OOB (tentative). 15.9K posts + senator = Imperium



Demographics & Economy

Formal Name: Incorporated Republic of Tonkin
Short Name: Tonkin
Term for Citizens: Tonkinese
Capital: Hue

Economy: $5T GDP
Population: 117.7M
Per-capita GDP: $42.5K

Area: 800,000 km²

Official Languages: Tonkinese, English. Literacy rate approaches 100%, the vast majority of the population are bilingual. A hybrid pidgin language usually called "Tonklish" or "Tonglish" is commonly spoken.

Major Religions: Buddhism 62%, Catholicism 28%

Education: Multiple-tier primary and secondary education system. Competent government education system primarily intended to produce skilled workers; corporate-sponsored education system typically of higher caliber but requires employment in sponsoring corporation (either by guardians, or for contracted term post-graduation). Religious organizations and charter schools have government-oversight.

The university system is world class and primarily concentrated on producing business, scientific, mathematics and engineering training. Fields considered less profitable (including the fine arts and the liberal arts) have significantly reduced funding in the university sector and result in the majority of aspiring artists to seek education abroad. Multiple-tiered university system provides options for all though a government-run entrance examination system.

Healthcare: Essentially like Singapore's with addition for-fee private clinics abounding and preferred by the upper and upper-middle class who have corporate insurance policies or simply can afford them.

Economy: Neoliberal: the IRT is perhaps the greatest free-market system in the entire world. Salient features include high-technology exports, major arms exports to any and all sellers, major finance industries, large multinational corporations taking advantage of local tax laws, etc.

Transportation: Significant corporate-government investment into high-speed and cargo rail have provided an efficient distribution network. Major interprovincial road network exists with secondary Air Force dispersal field capability; however, major surface traffic problems exist in several major cities, especially Saigon and Hue. Extensively well-developed air traffic and air cargo facilities. Extensive seaport facilities for international trade.

Telecommunications: Major high-speed internet backbones; the IRT is uniquely suited as a bridge between major continents. Extensive wireless and wireline networks in place. Significant number of radio and television stations.

Energy: Wide scale nuclear power generation accounting for 65% of all electricity generation in the nation. Significant nuclear reprocessing. Hydroelectric (15) and natural gas provide additional power generation. Major renewable energy initiatives in place primarily to develop export-oriented technology (primarily wind and solar). Geothermal energy provides a small amount of power in some select areas; coal power has been rapidly phased out where possible. Major research into superconductive systems in progress to reduce grid losses.

Policing: Major surveillance systems now being installed in public areas. Significant research into automated surveillance systems in progress. Mandated national identification card for all person over the age of 13. Corporal punishment is still allowed; the state of Tonkinese jails have been criticized by human rights organizations.

Politics

The IRT is an unusual state with few analogues elsewhere in the world (San Dorado being the obvious exception). It is modeled after corporate governance and seeks professional administration unencumbered by the transient whims of the mob. However, shareholders retain significant power in government. Most citizens of the IRT hold at least one voting share (nonvoting stock also exists with certain other economic benefits); corporations also hold shares.

The IRT is an authoritarian state in many respects. There is significant personal freedoms on the broad level but considerable restrictions in detail. With the reduced cost of technology, the surveillance state is becoming a reality along with continuous tracking of vehicles and perhaps, in the future, the average citizen.

Foreign Affairs

With the exception of the strategically-placed island kingdom of Svalbardia, the IRT remains neutral in most affairs, content to sell to anyone and everyone. There is considerable tension with the three large MESS neighbors to the north, if with improving relations with Tian Xia. Administration of the Canal Zone with Wilkonia remains a particularly sore point.

Recent joint-defense partnerships with Japanistan and Shepistan (UOINC, UART) are expected to bear significant fruit; no formal alliance is ever expected.

The one exception to the neutrality policy is Svalbardia; major assets are in place for the defense of that kingdom and its strategic location.

Military

Certain unlisted point assumptions have been made:
CVLs cost 7 points
Short-range SAM (x16) costs 1.5 points.

GOVERNMENT: Constitutional Monarchy
EXECUTIVE: His Majesty, King Arik Coyotus-I

GOVERNING BODY: The Royal National Parliament
One Primary MP from the dominant Party of each province, with a co-chair (junior MP) from the secondary party. Junior MPs cannot hold portfolios but do hold a vote.

The Royal National Parliament, or RNP, was a brainchild of the Nationalist Front during the Civil War years between Communists, Nationalists, and the Royalists. An agreement was made between Royalists and Nationalists to compromise on a Constitutional Monarchy, in which the King became the Executive head of state and the Parliament exercised daily governance and restraint. The following Political Parties are represented:

National Party-- hawkish, pro-military Nationalists.
Labor Party-- Remnants of the smashed Communists, this is a weak party that advocates for workers.
Libertarian Party-- Pro-Business industrialists that actually favor government social programs.
Royalist Party-- Very small party of aristocrats and some business moguls.
Greens Party-- Small but growing in popularity, the Greens party is primarily interested in environmental initiatives.

Foreign Minister: Ren Lars (Labor Party, Libris)
Defense Minister: Ral Tenn (National Party, Saggitaron)
Trade Minister: Rayzha Rumaclin (Labor Party, Caprica)
Finance Minister: Erma Felna (National Party, Tauron)
Tourism Minister: Seela Kimthrel (Labor Party, Aerelon)
Science & Industry Minister: Mark Reebo (Libertarian Party, Gemenon)
Environment Minister: Myra Foxglove (Greens Party, Picon)
Education Minister: Laura Roslin (Labor, Aquaria)
Interior Minister: Viktor Krahn (Libertarian Party, Canceron)
Immigration Minister: Leopold Mallory (Libertarian Party, Scorpia)
Justice Minister: Selway Bavan (National Party, Leonis)
Culture Minister: Anoritte Barona (Royalist Party, Virgon)

JUDICIAL:
A Supreme Council of three Justices rules over the Constitutionality and legality of legislation. The Supreme Council of Judges is selected from among the senior judges of the nation-- one is selected by th eParliament; one selected by the King; the third voted on by both King and Parliament together.

The Supreme Council only deals with legal issues in government; they cannot be appealed to for general criminal cases except in the most extraordinary circumstances (a case has national repercussions) and must be approved by Parliament.

ALLIANCES: The MESS
The MESS alliance is a common economic, military, and diplomatic pool. Included are joint research and defense projects, security pacts, scientific endeavors, student exchange programs and extradition treaties. Free trade, joint peacekeeping and inter-jurisdictional drug interdiction efforts are among some of the typical efforts shared by the MESS.

INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS:
None signed as yet.

==============================================

INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION; EXPORTS:
Diesel-electric cars: Wolfsburg Motor Works; Gaia-Electric
Shipyards: Pearl Point Hullworks; Electric Boats-Portlandia
Aerospace: AeroTech; Ofek Industries
Agricultural exports: Excellent quality wines, beers, and spirits.
'Pure Cane' sugar production, coffee, tropical fruits
Raw Materials: Iron, Copper, Diamonds, Coal, Gold, Rubber plantations.

FUEL PRODUCTION:
Power on Canissia is supplied by nuclear power, with limited wind, solar, geothermal and wave-motion where possible.
Fuel for vehicles is provided by algae-vat grown biodiesel with as limited infusion of petroleum products as possible.

FUEL PHILOSOPHY:
Canissia tries to limit petroleum product usage as much as possible, and tries to use plant-fiber "plastics" where possible. Home Heating will use geothermal, solar, and natural gas where applicable. The public power grid will draw from wind, solar, and wave-motion devices, as well as a nuclear power grid that blankets the island.

PUBLIC TRANSIT:
Public Transit is partially subsidized, and partially funded through riders. High-speed bullet trains, Maglev style, connect most cities. Within cities, a combination of light rail/subways, natural gas and electric taxis (with overnight plug-in stations) are the norm. Personal vehicles are authorized but fuel-responsible versions are primarily encouraged, with diesel-electric plug-in hybrids being the norm. Motorcycles and scooters are highly recommended as well. Air travel by fixed-wing aircraft is available, but expensive. Travel by airship, on the othe rhand, is cheap-- and with a nation about the size of Spain, practical. Airships are enhanced with solar panels on top to help with 'hotel load' (ie, personal electronics, etc). A typical Royal Canissian Skyliner.

FOOD PHILOSOPHY:
Canissia tries to grow as much of its own food as possible, however, the extreme amount of rangeland needed for beef production makes beef a rare, expensive luxury item. Most meat is provided by lamb and poultry. In deference to Baron-Lord Coyotus's personal religious practices, pork production is not had on Canissia, however, it may be imported from elsewhere. Healthy eating with food grown as organically as possible within reason is encouraged, and the use of corn syrup is strictly prohibited.

EDUCATION:
Kindergarten programs are encouraged but not mandatory; however, government-sponsored daycare programs have Kindergarten curriculums as part of their mandate. Emphasis is placed on problem-solving, encouraging the application of dynamic thinking and critical analysis. While science, math, and engineering education in Canissia is considered first-rate, programs for the arts and humanities (especially languages) are also emphasised. School from 1st through 12th grade is mandatory and taxpayer-funded. College/VoTec and Uniersity study is subsidized.

SOCIALIZATION:
All Canissian citizens are required to perform some sort of National Service. The military is encouraged but not mandatory, and National Service can be fulfilled in other ways as well, such as hospital, sanitation, or agricultural work.

SPORTS:
Sports are encouraged for physical fitness and team-building in schools. Sports teams on Canissia are semi-professionals who largely volunteer their time. A cap is placed on the amont of money a sports star can make from endorsements, so stars cannot become 'owned' by any one company.

HEALTH CARE:
Health Care is nationalized. Business get tax breaks for contributing extra to the health care system, or for contributing machinery wehere applicable or sponsoring expensive research. A cap is placed on medical malpractice claims.

DRUG POLICY:
The consumption of 'natural' drugs (ie, marijuana, mushrooms) is legal so long as one does not drive or operate machinery, similar to penalties for drinking alcohol. Non-natural or 'refined' drugs are considered a public health hazard and prosecuted by penalty of law. Drug offenders, however, go to special 'drug prisons' rather than normal prisons where they are detoxed and used for work on government projects such as making liscenc eplates, uniforms, hospital bedding, etc.

PRISON SYSTEM:
Incareration for crimes is done on a 'sliding scale' of severity relevant to the nature of the crime. Time can be 'modified' depending on if (and how) a weapon was used in the comission of a crime. Criminals are lumped together by crime type and kept largely confined to two to a cell wherever possible. Labor for government projects is provided, offering a chance for training in useful endeavors when released.

The death penalty exists, but is used very sparingly, and only for the most heinous of crimes. For most violent or high-risk offenders, life in prison is preferred.

==============================================

ARMED FORCES OF THE ROYAL PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CANISSIA:

Canissian military philosophy is primarily defensive, with power-projection emphasis placed on quick, highly mobile intervention as needed. Canissia prefers not to engage in long, protracted wars or extended peacekeeper ops unless joining larger multi-national coalitions with agreed-upon goals. Canissian personnel deployed to combat theaters are expected to adhere to the rules of war and conduct, however, if fired upon, they are authorized to fire back.

In the Military Vehicles categories, military vehicles listed will be given by a class-- ie, "tanks" or "self-propelled gun". These will be followed by a link to a comperable vehicle. These vehicles are Wikipedia references and are not from the same country or even the same era. The vehicle linked to is not the exact vehicle being used by the Canissian armed forces, but rather a vehicle that inspires or resembles the PRC vehicle.

ALL government fleet vehicles in use in the People's Republic of Canissia are plug-in biodiesel-electric hybrids. Tracked vehicles all use rubberized "stretchy" tracks instead of the usual metal rod-and-pin style tracks. These modifications are to provide better fuel economy as well as limited stealth.

===================================

THE CANISSIAN ROYAL ARMY:
The Army is made up of 16 Divisions, which are organized into 4 Corps-level commands.

ARMY WEAPONS:
The main rifle issued to the RPRC Army is a modified version of the FN SCAR. The modification in question is, primarily, producing it in 6.8 mm, which is used as the Universal Service Round (smallarms/rifle).
Issued SMG: UMP-45 is used.

TACTICAL AIRLIFT AND SUPPORT:
1 Tactical Support Air Regiment exists to provide tactical air support, both transport and Close-Air Support (CAS).


===================================


THE CANISSIAN ROYAL AIR FORCE:
The Air Force uses the same basic equipment as the Army, with regards to trucks, jeeps, etc. Air Force security police use a variation of the M-1117 Armored Car for base security & Patrol. Air Force persinnek are issued the Colt .45 sidearm, except for Security Police and other field-deployed troops, who get the UMP-45 submachine gun.
Air Force breakdown of initial equipment is thus:

Squadron: 3 Flights of 4 Aircraft each = 12 Aircraft per Squadron

Air Superiority & Intercept Fighters Squadrons
1 will typically be assigned CAP
1 will be training
1 will be on standby, doing training, maintenance, etc as available.
2 Squadrons of Experimental FD-45 "Dragonette"-class are undergoing testing.

Tactical Bombing:
1 Tactical Bombing Regiment equipped with fighter-bomber and close-air-support type aircraft.
These is available for prescision bombing within refuel range.

Strategic Bombing:
Long-range strategic bombing will be performed by the B-1 series heavy bombers.
The B-47 StratoWolf drone bomber, a Canissian take on the X-47 Pegasus prototype, is undergoing field testing.

Strategic Airlift & Special Support:
Heavy-lift transports for long-range hauling includes not only fixed-wing but lighter-than-air zeppelin transports.

Training:
2 Flight Training Squadrons flying a two-pace Typhoon Trainer.
2 Combat Training Squadrons flying JAS-39s and F-16s as Aggressors.

THE DEFENSE OF CANISSIAN AIRSPACE: Strategic Air Defense Corps
The Strategic Air Defense Corps is a branch of the Royal Air Force tasked with defending Canissian airspace from air attack, be it by bomb, missile, aircraft, airship, drone or other means. The defense network centers on the following:

THEL: Tactical High Energy Laser emplacements, in clusters of 3 apiece, no less than 500 meters apart.
Patriot SAM: Anti-aircraft missile batteries that serve as back-up interceptors. 2 SAM launchers per THEL turret.
CIWS: Close-In Weapons System-- a last-ditch measure to defend the emplacements themselves. 2 CIWS per THEL.

Altogether, each Integrated Defense Battery ("IDB") has 3 THEL, 6 SAM and 6 CIWS.
Defenses can be augmented by Army AAA-vehicles with Stinger type missiles and TROPHY anti-RPG systems.
Compounds are heavily guarded by Air Force security personnel, and assisted by RCBG police as well. In emergencies, these facilities can be bolstered by Army and/or Militia.

==============================================

THE ROYAL CANISSIAN NAVY:
The Canissian navy is primarily concerned with regional power projection and home-littoral defense. To these ends, the Navy relies on smaller, faster ships that pack more punch and are willing to sacrifice operating range to this end. The Navy has short-deck carriers rather than larger CVNs, however, Canissian Cruisers and larger ships are nuclear powered. There are also Navy SEALs for special ops: 60 SEALS in total.

CANISSIAN ROYAL NAVY: Overall Structure--
4 "Triton"-class Carriers
4 "Neptune"-class Amphib Assault
10 "Kraken"-class Cruisers

Speacial Operations:
4 SEAL Teams: 60 SEALS apiece; 240 SEALS total.

Marine HQ & Training:
Marine Land based Training Brigade (Amphib Infantry, Tanks, and Aircraft Training)

UAVs & ROVs:
UAVs are very common for maritime patrol and especially ASW and reconaissance work. Nearly every ship will have at least 1 UAV, even if it is only a small fold-up version, for limited over-the-horizon scouting and ASW. The following are common UAVs in service:
UAVs for Corvette-class and smaller: DragonEye-class.
UAVs for Frigate-classes: ScanEagle-class.
UAVs for Cruiser-classes: MQ-9 Reaper-class.
UAVs for ASW (Frigates & larger):Fire Scout-class.

PROPOSED UAVs for limited aerial combat: FD-45 "Dragonette"-class.
The Navy is the primary research branch for UAVs, with the Air Force in a supporting role.

NAVAL BUILDING FACILITIES:
Pearl Point Hulls: [no building currently underway]
Electric Boats-Portlandia: [no building currently underway]

==============================================

ROYAL CANISSIAN BORDER GUARDS:
The RCBG is a seperate, para-military service that combines the duties of the Coast Guard, Border Patrol, and Immigration & Customs Enforcement duties. They also perform search-and-rescue (SAR) services and disaster relief. They are lightly armed, compared to typical military branches, but more armed than police branches. They have powers of arrest and frequently perform drug & smuggler interdiction operations as well.

Land Vehicles:
Light Jeep: LandRover Wolf-type, in sage green instead of camo.
Armored Car: M-1117, also in sage green.

SPECIAL PROTECTIVE SERVICES:
Security for government ministers and the King ar eprovided by this special branch of RCBG special agents. Commanded by "Chief Karl Tigh", these men & women dress in suits and ties according to the occassion and provide discreet, but tough, protection.

===============================================

ROYAL CANISSIAN TERRITORIAL MILITIAS:
The Militia System is used in Canissia; it is an 'opt-out' system (meaning that all citizens are considered to be in the Militia unless they specifically opt out). Active Militia participation means you are on a local unit call list and available for drills, disaster relief, and other civil emergencies. Milita members can assist civilian law enforcement if needed, but do not have arrest powers. In order to own a firearm, one must be an Active member of the Militia, which means at minimum two drills a year for firearms practice. Militia service is unpaid, but while on drill status you may ride public transportation for free and get 20% for meals at restaurants.

Militias Uniforms: Track Pattern is recommended. Militias are not allowed to use the same camo as regular forces.

Milita weapons: members of the militia purchase and maintain their own weapons and ammunition. Weapons can be anything up to civilian versions of military weapons; ie, fully-automatic weapons are not allowed except by special government permit.

==============================================

Law Enforcement:
Police Force: Ordinary Civilian police with cars, etc, and SWAT teams in each city.
Coastal & Harbor Police: Civilian police force for harbor and near-harbor policing. Sometimes has to share authority with RCBG. Typical patrol boat is the Barracuda-class Coastal Patrol Boat.

==========================================



THE CANISSIAN ROYAL NAVY:
The Royal Navy, or RN, is primarily concerned with the defense of the high seas surrounding the Canissian peninsula. Canissian defense philosophy is that once something leaves the 12-nautical-mile sovereignty zone of any surrounding nation, and enters internationally recognized High Seas Territory, it becomes of interest to the Royal Navy.

The RN does have limited force-projection capacity in the form of its Carriers and Amphibious Assault craft; however, by themselves these vessels and their escorts do not have sufficient combat strength to overwhelm a large, organized and determined enemy without outside help in the form of larger international coalitions.

For limited-duration assaults, however, the Marines, Fleet Air Arm, RAF 1st and 2nd Air Commands, and the Canissian Army II-Airborne Corps frequently practice together for combined air-superiority-airborne-amphibious operations, a powerful and likely overwhelming combination of forces.

Special Operations:
Special Operations teams are referred to as SEALs (SEa-Air-Land) and are drawn from Marine, Navy, and Army Ranger units. All are Parachute, Dive, Air-Assault and Mountain qualified. SEAL teams specialize in certain geographical regions that are identified as trouble spots, and are also trained in language, customs, geography, and lore of a target area. SEALs can perfrom missions from reconnaissance, sniping, demolitions, and a variety of other missions behind enemy lines.

SEAL Team 1: Specializing in Central Command
SEAL Team 2: Specializing in Western Command
SEAL Team 3: Specializing in Eastern Command
SEAL Team 4: Specializing in Island Operations/Northern Command



ROYAL CANISSIAN MARINES:
The Marines are typically one of the first forces on the ground, and have a very combat-heavy organization. They can afford to do this by allowing most of their logistical needs to be handled by the Navy, freeing them of that task and concentrating on rifleman combat skillsets.

Marine HQ & Training:

This is a Training and Organization/Admin Headquarters for all things having to do with the Royal Marines. The RMC is the smallest service; the bulk of the RMC is entirely comprised of the MEUs themselves. The HQ/TB is slightly larger than a standard MEU and exists solely for the purpose of training and equipping Marines prior to deployment. Marine recruits go through Navy Basic Training, then on to the HQ/TB for advanced, individual Marine-specific training.

The Integrated Defense Battery ("IDB") has 3 THEL, 6 SAM and 6 CIWS.
THEL: Tactical High Energy Laser emplacements, in clusters of 3 apiece, no less than 500 meters apart.
Patriot SAM: Anti-aircraft missile batteries that serve as back-up interceptors. 2 SAM launchers per THEL turret.
CIWS: Close-In Weapons System-- a last-ditch measure to defend the emplacements themselves. 2 CIWS per THEL.

Defenses can be augmented by Army AAA-vehicles with Stinger type missiles and TROPHY anti-RPG systems.
Compounds are heavily guarded by Air Force security personnel, and assisted by RCBG police as well. In emergencies, these facilities can be bolstered by Army and/or Militia.

As of this writing, multiple IDBs are already built and more are being planned along likely routes for incoming missiles.

The Sovereign Duchy of Baerne

Flag of the Sovereign Duchy

The Sovereign Duchy of Baerne is a nation on the continent of Frequesque (or Frequesue; Baernish Shroomanian uses the first spelling while San Dorado, Indhopal, and most other Shroomanian derivative languages use the latter), on the western coast. It is bordered to the North by the Costa de las Cinquos Muertes, to the South by the Mountains of Valor region of the Kingdom of the Vineyards, to the East by the Inner Sea, and to the West by the Pacific Ocean. Additionally, two Baernish colonies exist in the Frequesquan Wilderness, one on the North shore of the Inner Sea, and the other on the peninsula North of San Dorado.


The Sovereign Duchy of Baerne is typically referred to as the Duchy, or Baerne.


History:
The 2nd of January is celebrated as one of two National Days, with the other being the ruling Duke's birthday. This same day, in 1875, saw the seizure of the Governor's Mansion of the then-Shroomanian Colony of West Frequesque by rebel forces under the command of Edward Baerne. Angered by various excesses of the Shroomanian colonial government, the Winter Rebellion, as it is now called, staged an uprising disguised as New Year's celebrations, smuggling in guns in boxes of fireworks. The next day, when Shroomanian troops were too sickened by the last night's debauchery to defend themselves, Baerne led one hundred men up the hill to the Governor's Mansion, from which he proclaimed the new Sovereign Duchy. Shroomania did little, preoccupied with internal weirdness, much as usual. The Hundred are still remembered as well; their descendants are the nobility of the Duchy.

For the next century, Baernish influence in Frequesque grew steadily, mainly due to the work of Dukes James I and Edward III, who set the Duchy up as an industrial power. With San Dorado, Baerne soon found itself supplying much of the manufactured goods it's neighbors required. Trade wealth and several short, victorius wars against minor powers kept the populace happy even as monarchies fell around the world. The Duchy even learned lessons from the Crimson Rebellion, taking steps to provide health care and a safety net for the workers who provided it's wealth. This precaution is still visible today, as the Baernish Health Service.

Baernish troops fought under Shroomanian command in WWI and WWII, bringing knowledge and new ideas back to the Duchy when they returned. Most of these ideas had to do with military technologies, of course, and the Baernish Ducal Army has maintained a focus on armored combat ever since. It is the most mechanized of the Frequesquan militaries to this day. Another idea was that of democracy, which then-Duke Paul I allowed to manifest as a Baernish Senate, which has since been rendered completely powerless.

Recent years have provided the Duchy with tremendous opportunities for growth. In mid-2009, the Sovereign Duchy joined the FTO, which it remained a part of until the Frequesquan Treaty Organization's collapse in 2015 due to internal troubles. The Baernish military played a major role in the FTO's Operation Stabilizer, and is directly responsible for the destruction of the Revolutionary Front in the Central Frequesquan Republic. Industrially, the Duchy was a major FTO member as well, partnering with San Dorado to produce the FTO's Standard-class missile destroyer, advanced missiles, and the Vigilant-class SSBN. It also provided funds to San Dorado's Silver Streak Project.

In 2015, the Duchy joined CATO. After a brief humanitarian intervention in the Costa de las Cinquos Muertes, the Costan government dropped nerve gas on Baernish troops and bombed the capital, resulting in the first full mobilization of the Baernish State in decades. Three divisions advanced into the Costa, supported by hundreds of planes and the entirety of the BDN. The Ducal Military was stopped in it's tracks, however, by an internationally-sponsored ceasefire, after losing several planes, 5% of the land force, and having HGS Isabella, the BDN's carrier, damaged by a submarine. This ceasefire goes strongly against the will of the people, and it remains to be seen what will come of it.

Political Structure

The Duchy is an absolute monarchy, with all power devolving from the Duke. His appointed ministers head the nation's government, and serve entirely at the Duke's pleasure. There is a Baernish Senate, established shortly after WWII in response to the demonstration of the evils possible under an autocratic government presented by the Shadow Empire's Nazi regime, but it has since been rendered powerless by various Ducal decrees. There are 100 Baernish Counts, and approximately 350 Viscounts, who serve as the local administrators of the 100 counties that compose the Duchy.

The Ducal Ministries are:
Ministry of War: Her Excellency Countess Truman, Minister for War
--Subministry of the Air Force: General Ripper, Ducal Air Force Commander
--Subministry of the Army: His Excellency General the Count Bloomberg, Ducal Army Commander

A Brief Note on the Flag:

• The Wilkonian flag consists of two primary section on the flag itself combined with an additional adornment that is present on all official flagstaffs as the ornamentation. The first utilizes a crosshatch gold and black pattern. The colors are the from the ancestral Coat of Arms of the Calvert Family from which the current monarchy descends. the crosshatch pattern itself is a symbolic merging of the strengths of the paternal and maternal lines given that the monarchy itself descends by rule of lineal primogeniture regardless of gender. The red and white design for the other 2 quadrants is representative of the country as a whole rather than the founding house. Each of the two quadrants consists of a white background with 4 stars, each representing two of the 16 non-Capitol Provinces of the Empire, and 2 bars, representing in sum the 4 pillars of the county (The King, The Government, The People and The Law). When properly flown the flagstaff will be topped with a gold cross botony. The form is taken from the Seal of the Province of Columbia, the Empire's Capitol, and the color to hold true to the colors of the Calvert Coat of Arms.
  
  Thus represented on a complete flag and staff are all of the provinces of the Empire, the Royal House, the Government, the People, and the Law. Everything that is Wilkonia can be found somewhere within the flag on display.

Government and Economy of Wilkonia


Long Form Name: The Empire of Wilkonia and Baja
Short Form Name: Wilkonia
Demonym: Wilkonian
Government: Constitutional Monarchy
Capitol: Columbia, Capitol Province

• Language(s): Wilkonian (Spanish), Old Wilkonian (Latin, still used in many government decrees) and Common (English). The first and last are taught in primary and secondary education with specialist and university courses in the second.
  
  Religion: Principaly comprised of Anglican, Catholic, Lutheran, and Presbyterian Christians, Reform and Modern Orthodox Judaism, and Deobani and Barelwi schools of Islam. The Sovereign and Court are required, by vow before coronation, to uphold the traditions of Lutheranism though as a practice Lutherans comprised a bare plurality of Christian churches and roughly the same plurality amongst all faiths. Christian sects comprise roughly 28% of citizens, Jewish sects 12% and Islamic sects 19%, the rest are unaffiliated/aesthist/agnostic (20%) or in minor groups (Zorastrianism for instance claims 5%)
  
  Geography: Wilkonian comprises roughly 2.5 million km^2 of land not including certain minor offlying islands. The country is divided by a series of mountains comprising the southern half of the Continental Divide of MESSamerica. In the north of the country it runs more to the western half creating a shallow pocket of dense foliage and population of the Eastern Shore of the Gulf of Baja. South of that point the range runs closer to bisecting the country creating a region of tropical highlands and jungles crisscrossed by a series of rivers and major lakes that still support a suprisingly vibrant canal system. In the two southernmost provinces the mountains veer back westward relative to the bisecting line and eventually terminate into a series of cliffs facing south where the southernmost province (Panama) shifts its South coastline to run roughly along the 9th Parallel. The southern portion of the province before the Straights of Tonkin comprise a low tropical plain descending into a huge series of marshes and wetlands excepting the commercially improved section from the southernmost coast north for 7-10 miles.

  Economy [This links to a .doc file containing additional infromation]
  
  • A Brief Note on principal exports and imports:
    
    Wilkonia is the worlds largest producer of silver and the third largest producer of pig iron though only the fourth largest produce of finished steel products by weight. This is due in large part to the modest import needs in terms of molybedenum, chromium, zinc, tungsten, titanium and other alloying metals. While all of them are found locally Wilkonia imports a notable percentage largely through an intricate series of I/E concerns in the Caymans from the Incorporate Republic of Tonkin or through less byzantine routes from the Shinra Republic and Cascadia.
    
    The nation is also the fifth largest producer of uranium world wide but produces a larger share of commercialy utilized plutonium in its breeder reactors than the rest of the top five (speculation as to this discrepency has only been heightened by recent weapons test performed by many nations). Conversely on the strategic minerals front Wilkonia is a net major importer of petroleum depending mostly upon Alaska and Tian Xia to supply its needs but also sourcing supplies on the Old Continent in paticular for LNG. The port of Savage on the east coast holds the worlds largest LNG import terminal (as well as the shipyards where the world's largest LNG carriers are produced).

The Byzantine Empire

Current Draft

Other names: Vasilía Roméon, Imperium Romanum

Country Factfile

Population: 55 million

Currency: Solidus (s), Solidi (p)

Government: The Government is that of a constitutional monarchy, with the Emperor of Byzantium being the head of not only of state, and the commander in chief, and also exercises duties in the Orthodox church. The Ecumenical Patriarch is head of the Orthodox Church and is the Emperor’s spiritual advisor. The Emperor however believes in free spirited worship and will not impose his will on the people, and he will also hold back with a tight leash any of the religious radicals. He is a firm believer of Science and its most steadfast patron. The Emperor has a court of advisors appointed by the Senate. The Senate is elected by the people and controls domestic policy. Military and foreign policy remain the purview of the Emperor, as it has always has been. Typically both Emperor and Senate try to maintain a cordial relationship and are heavily involved in discussions of the state although, as always, disagreements will inevitably occur. The Judiciary is independent and its independence enshrined in the Constitution.

The Emperor is served by two Exarchs; one serves as the Foreign Policy Adviser and has powers of a Foreign Minister, while the other serves as the Military Advser and has powers of a Defence Minister. The Emperor has a Chief Adviser who serves in as a Chief of Staff.

Relgion: The Ecumenical Patriarch is the spiritual leader for Orthodox Catholics across the world. Jerusalem and Mecca represent great importance to Islam, Christianity and Judaism. 80% of the population are composed of Orthodox Catholics, 15% Muslim, 5% Judaism.

Racial composition: 70% Greek/Slavic/Latin, 5% Jew, 25% Kurd/Arab

Much inter-marrying took place in the Byzantine Empire between Latins, Greeks and Slavs over the last few centuries. To some extent, there is no true Greek, Slav, or Latin any more.

Major Cities: Konstantinoplis, Thessaloniki, Athens, Korith, Nikea, Smyra, Ikonium, Antioch, Trepezond, Sinope, Jerusalem, Tarsus, Ephesus
(There are of course more, but these are the key cities)

Social Policy
Byzantium is capitalist, yet it provides a social net to ensure that every citizen has enough funds to obtain an education. Health care follows a copayment scheme where citizens are expected to pay a portion of the fees, according to their income. Pension follows a copayment scheme. Each month, up to 5% of a person's income is set aside and placed in an investment fund with 3% per annum returns. The government gives a pension of $300 a month varying according to the person's average lifetime salary, while the income set aside and is returned to the citizen.

Economy: A GDP of USD$2.5 Trillion a year (as of 2008), Byzantium believes in a balanced economy and as such, focuses on a wide range of high tech products, such as semiconductors, electronics, computer software, nuclear technology, biotechnology, medicine, and also specializes in a wide range of services, such as finance, law, transportation, banking. It also has heavy industry that produces ships, cars, warships, steel, mining equipment, ocean salvage equipment, oil rigs and other heavy equipment. It is open to collaboration with other nations should they wish to collaborate.

The shipping industry is largely geared towards supporting its trade fleet and military with 3 main shipyards, which located at Constantinople, Thessaloniki and Athens. There are other satellite shipyards which service the ports at Antioch and Ephesus, and conduct repairs of navy ships. The ones at Constantinople, Thessalonika and Athens are classified as megashipyards capable of producing tens of ships a year when necessary. The Byzantine Empire has always been a beacon of trade and finance and operates one of the largest fleets of merchant vessels in the world, with a total of capacity of 60 million TEUs. Constantinople is a major financial center with many large banks and investment houses involved in all aspects of finance. There is a sizable weapons industry geared towards the support of the military. This is in line with Byzantium policy of being balanced an self-sufficient.

It has a significant Agriculture and fishery industry. Byzantine wines are among the best in the world. Producing rice, wheat, fruits and many other agricultural products, these products are both for local consumption and for export. Byzantine Fisheries is a significant fishery company that has many fish farms and a sizable fishing fleet that goes around the world catching fish.

Major Exports: Aluminium, Copper

Minor exports: Uranium, Niobium, Titanium, Iron

Oil is produced in Arabia and the profits are divided with the two Caliphates.

Major companies:
Constantinople Shipping: Premier Shipping fleet. It operates the merchantile fleet of the Empire and ships goods all over the world. The company currently operates a mixture of 16000, 12000, 8000, 4000, 2000 and 1000 TEU vessels, and is inclined to purchase newer ships.

Byzantine Salvaging and Rescue Company: This company is dedicated to salvaging and towing and transporting ships to the repair dock in question. They operate a number of floating dry docks, salvage vessels, dredgers, semi-submersible heavy-lift ships etc.

Byzantine Heavy Industries: Involved in mining, mineral extraction, vehicle construction, building construction, turbine engines, tank design and construction, heavy equipment, construction, deep drilling, nuclear energy, high quality steel, gas turbines, aircraft engines etc., Byzantine Heavy Industries is an important part of the economy furnishing many needs and requirements.

Kontos Munitions: Major Weapon systems development and production company, the company produces many of the Empire's weapon systems, such as missiles, radar, guns, torpedoes. Kontos has a rocket engine division that designs and produces rocket engines for many weapon systems and rockets.

Byzantine Aeronautics: Major Aeronautics company, it is involved in the design and development of airplanes and is in a joint venture with Shroomanian company MacMillion Corporation to design and produce aircraft to be sold on the international market. The company is known as BAM. It is also involved in designing UAVs and fighter aircraft and bombers.

Constantinople Shipyards: Pride of the Byzantine Empire, the Shipyards have a long history of producing ships for the Empire. Hundreds of years of experience and innovation has granted it the ability to design any ship, large or small. It has a massive potential capacity, and was instrumental in producing and replacing warships lost in war.

Constantinople Port Authority: Runs the Empire's ports and facillitates trade.

Byzantine Oil Pte Ltd: Major energy company involved in oil extraction and is involved in alternative energy research.

Byzantine Airlines: Operating a mix of B777-300/200ER and A380 and A320/30, the airline flies across the world.

Archimedes Software: software company

Byzantine Telecom: Major telecommunications service provider, lays land lines and wireless network, maintain cellphone services, WIFI network.

Avatar Telecom: Competitor to Byzantine Telecom

Space Telecommunications: JV between Byzantine Telecom, Archimedes Software and Icarus electronics. Aims to deliver telecommunication services, video on demand, music content, Internet search engine services and maintain its own network of telecommunication satellites/stratellites

Byzantine Pharmaceuticals: Pharmaceutical company. Jointly engages in joint research with universities and its counterparts in Kingdom of Serenity. Recently formed a massive joint venture company with Taichiana. The company is Taichiana Byzantine Pharmaceuticals (TBP).

JetKon Budget Airways: Budget airline.

Veritas Media Corporation: A major media company that produces Constantinople Times, and Constantinople Television.

Education: 100 universities across the nation all state supported. It is law for students to finish high school. Students are supported by the state if so required. Sciences and Engineering fields are actively supported. Finance related courses are popular largely because of the vibrant Financial industry.

R&D: Research and Development at universities is heavily supported by the state and is of the order of tens of billions yearly. The state has many ambitious projects conducting research on various fields including nuclear fusion and space exploration in numerous research institutes and is open to collaboration, so long as Byzantium gets all the available information derived from the research.

Some research institutes:

Nuclear Energy Institute: Involved in heavy research into nuclear energy, particularly fusion
High Energy Institute: Involved in particle Physics research
Joint Institute for Laboratory Astrophysics (JILA): Involved in astrophysics, atomic molecular optics and condensed matter research and other semiconductor research
Joint Quantum Institute (JQI): Involved in atomic molecular optics and condensed matter research for the use of constructing a Quantum Computer and exploring other Quantum phenomena. JQI and JILA research areas overlap and are fierce competitors
Biotech Institute: Involved in Biotech research
Biomedicinal Research: Involved in medicinal research
Alternative Energy Institute: Exploring new energy sources.
Material Science Institute: An institute involved in research on new materials
Space Science Institute: Space research, applications.

Energy: Byzantium believes in renewable resources, and continues to research renewable fuels and greater fuel efficiency, but recognizes that long term policy must somehow deal with the exploration of oil and as such directs resources to secure oil within its own borders and also from friendly sources. The Energy Dept is also in charge of general natural resource procurement and manages state enterprises that are involved in mining and extraction of all natural resources.

Energy infrastructure wise, the country maintains several 1.6GW reactors, and has extensive research into nuclear energy. The Empire, along with the Arab and Egyptian Caliphates maintains oil drilling facilities in Arabia.

Military Order of Battle

Expenditure is pegged at 6% of GDP, with the upward potential of hitting 10-15% if required. NOTE: Byzantium has special Greek fire warheads, assumed to be continually developed for centuries, into a form that is weaponisable, and used for various applications, be it rockets, bombs, mortars etc.

Imperial Byzantine Navy

Among all the three services, the Imperial Byzantine Navy is considered the most senior of the two and receives the most funding. The Imperial Byzantine Navy consists of 4 Commands: Forward Fleet, Home Fleet, Coastal Command and Fleet Auxiliary. The Forward Fleet consists of fleet units tasked with defending the Empire far away from its shores, while the Home Fleet is tasked with securing the Empire's home waters and Coastal Command is tasked with reconnaissance and coastal defense. Home Fleet however can be called upon to conduct expeditionary strike missions. Expedition Command is thus under Home Fleet Command. Fleet Auxiliary is charged with management of the fleet repositioning vessels to undertake transportation of army equipment for the purpose of attacking a foreign nation, and is also charged with Fleet Replenishment. The Navy operates 4 brigades of Varangian Guard Marine special forces units, charged with different tasks, such as frogmen, deep diving, ship boarding etc.

Ship stats overview

The navy has an intention of procuring up to 24 Invisible Hand class Ocean Surveillance vessels that are designed specifically for ASW work. Displacing approximately 7000 tonnes fully loaded, They are armed, and they come with 2 engine systems; 2 water jet and 2 screws. The waterjets will be used only during ASW operation, and screws when the ship is attempting to keep pace with a battlegroup. The screws are driven by powerful diesel engines to allow it to attain speeds of 30 knots. Engines are mounted above the waterline and are rafted. It uses a catamarian hull (similar to the T-AGOS-23 ships) and carries the SURTASS sonar system. The ship is armed with 6 starboard and port side 533mm torpedo launchers, 2 pairs of RBS-6000/12000 launchers and 8 ASROC launchers. The ship can fire an array of torpedoes. stored on board.

Medium sized vessels to deploy the S-500F system and to carry sizable armament as a fleet escort vessel. The ships employs many stealth technologies, notably the Advanced Enclosed Mast/Sensor (AEM/S) System.

Note 3: F-15Es are already equiped with AESA radar and other features.

Note 4: All units have access to simulators as part of training.

Imperial Byzantine Army

The Imperial Byzantine Army is on the same level as the Air Force in terms of funding. It may no longer be the most senior of the three services, it is however the oldest and is still charged with the defence of the realm. The original Theme system has been rearranged such that the army is mostly garrisoned near the borders as a quick rapid reaction force to any enemy incursions. In particular, Sofia, Antioch, Jerusalem on the border have major military garrisons. 2 Legions are located near Thessaloniki and Constantinople as home ground defence. The Limitanei form a reserve force to be deployed in wartime. Some measure of conscription is practiced, mostly fit males and females at the age of 18 to serve 3 years of military service. Note that all military bases are hardened against aerial attack. There are plans to further hardened the bases against ballistic missile attack as well. The army is also charged with coastal and base defence and employs a series of missiles and ballistic missiles against attackers.

Space Defence Command

Space Defence is a tri-service command structure that is charged with the defence of the airspace of the realm. It is organised along the lines of multiple command centers that direct the various air defence legions

Each of the static air defence legion will be deployed to each major city (about 13). The remainder will be deployed to strategic locations. 1st to 24th Air Defence Legion are located in hardened sites across the Empire. 25th to 36th and 49th to 60th are mobile legions that will come under the Army Tagmata. 37th to 48th Air Defence Legion will be located in hardened bunkers with the assigned a mobile command center. Every legion will operate batteries of several Surface to Air Missile launchers, controlled command posts and radars. Due to cuts in force levels, 32nd to 36th, 57th to 60th Mobile Legions will be relegated to reserve duty, with the 32th to 36th largely staffed by voluntary national service recruits.

Byzantium's Integrated Air Defence System hierarchy consists of 5 layers, with the National Defence Center at the top, the sector Defence Centers next, the regional centers, the local nodes last. Each regional center is assigned at least one semi-static Air Defence Legion, and 1 AEGIS system consisting of 240 MK41 VLS cells. Some of the AEGIS systems will be slowly replaced with the STAR system. Fiber optics networks and encrypted datalinks are used to ensure better communication between centers and nodes. Data fusion is employed to combine all the data received so as to better coordinate air defence. Each center is capable of controlling all the weapons in its assigned area, and is buried and hardened against air attack. All weapons are housed in hardened buried bunkers with pop-up radars and sliding doors for the launchers to deploy THEL batteries and gun CIWS and RAM batteries are being deployed to provide point-defence for each air defence location. There are also a small number of mobile Aegis batteries as well. Considerable effort has been made to camouflage as well as to employ lots of decoys and backup centers. The Air Defence System is linked to a CATO air defence network to aid in the defence of the CATO against attacks. A number of mobile centers are also employed as last ditch fall backs. Various AEW&CSI aircraft are employed to aid in the defence as well. Considerable coordination takes place better the Air Force Air Defence Command and the National Defence Center.

2 OTH/OTH-B radar systems and 2 X-Band radar and are expected to be ready for testing come end of the FY09. 2 radars will be placed in Greece where one will be at Athens covering our southern flank, one will be covering our northern flank. 2 will be in Anatolia, at Antioch covering the southern flank and another at Trepizond.

The 10+4 stratellite radar systems will be placed over the east and west Mediterranean to provide all round surveillance of any aircraft coming from Japanistan.

Unit Organisation
Standard Heavy Anti-Air unit: S-400M, Patriot PAC, THAAD (To be replaced by the S-500, STAR)

I'm putting this here so it is easily accessible and I can add more to it when I have time.

OK I'm thinking 4 NPC Nations in between me and PeZook and they are as follows:

Independent Republic of Sjenska

President: Srdjan Karic( You remember him don't you )

A third world shithole with a large number of poorly equipped soldiers. Known as a terrorist hideout. Extremely militaristic and aggressive. Two attempts at annexing a neighbouring state, both failed due to the intervention of PeZookia and the USSR.

The Republic of Rohan

President: Zoran Stojkovic

-Third world shithole
-Highly unstable
-Known pirate hideout
-Involved in constant conflict with Shroomania because of pirates.


The Republic of Sargonia

President: E. Valjevcic

-Third world shithole
-highly unstable
-several regime changes
-stabilizing in recent years due to International support


The Socialist Republic of Zagor

Emperor: Marek The Cruel-deceased, former leader

New leader: Elmir Rosic

A highly militaristic third world shithole involved in constant skirmishes with it's neighbours most notably the Independent Republic of Sjenska and the USSR. Highly unstable and known as a terrorist hideout, attempted to annex neighbouring territories several times but failed due to USSR and PeZookian intervention. The only thing preventing the USSR from obliterating them are international politics.

With it's transformation came many changes both within the country and it's politics.
--------------------------------------------------------

Their equipment is mostly poorly trained infantry and tacticals. The Screaming Horde variety.
--------------------------------------------------------

I could write up something more detailed on them but I believe that it is better to leave it like this until the game begins. I'm not sure if I should bother with maps. Perhaps it will be easier if Stas just squeezes them in.

So Shroom, PeZook any suggestions? Opinions?

[Steve]

Just a preliminary OrBat for the Republic of Cascadia's military forces using Coyote's points system. I may yet tweak it some more, particularly in cutting down the navy (I was aiming for a decent Navy capable of protecting Cascadian maritime interests and contributing to any allies' overseas efforts that may arise, but I may yet reduce it), but what I was aiming for was a technologically-capable Kingdom-level First World military save for the eight brigades of conscripts that represent National Service (or more specifically, the provincial militia). Also, I figured it was silly that carriers cost so little without attached costs for their wings, so used Coyote's air force flights to reflect a more realistic cost (though I rolled the training/equipment cost into the actual CV cost).

Also, it's out of order by service because I went for the "core" units first and then figured out how to spend the remaining balance of points.

Defense Budget: 37,500,000,000 (5% of GDP)

Army

Overview: The Sirnoth Army is the least important of the three services. Sirnoth's defense policy in the past century or so has been dependent upon long range defenses, leaving the army with subpar recruits and equipment. The ranking officers are mostly those with the best political connections. Still, it would be wrong to portray the Sirnoth army as a collection of incompetents and cronies. While most of the Sirnoth rank and file are conscripts, they have excellent equipment, and an ongoing insurgency in the Hecate mountains means that most soldiers have a modicum of experience in combat.

Order of Battle:

3 Armored Divisions
5 Mechanized Divisions
2 Mountain (Light Infantry) Divisions
1 Air Assault Division

330,000 troops
2500 Leopard 2A4 MBTs
4001 Marder IFVs
516 HMMWV w/Milan III
528 M577 Mobile Command Vehicles
96 M110 203mm SP howitzers
700 PzH2000 155mm SP howitzers
72 MLRS
914 Milan III man portable ATGMs
528 106mm SP mortars
445 ZSU-23-4 AA guns
230 SA-11
314 SA-15
634 Stinger SAMs
548 AH-1 attack Helicopters
406 OH-58 scout Helicopters
430 UH-1 helicopters
48 CH-47 helicopters
54 Vulcan AA guns

(CAS and air transport are handled by the Air Force)

Overview: The Navy has been the pride of the Sirnoth military since it was first created. The service is more professional than the army, but is still controlled by the patron and client system that dominates Sirnoth society.

The Constitutional Republic of PeZookia - basic guide

(No coat of arms and flag. Probably never will get around to making any )

OVERVIEW


The Republic: Settlements and the Great River

PeZookia is a semi-large country located in the centre of the Old Continent. It is populated mainly by ethnic PeZookians, with small minorities of permanent residents from all over the world.

Primary religious convictions include: Catholicism (overwhelming majority), Greek Orthodoxy, Islam, Buddhism. No state religion is mandated or supported, much to the changrin on the local clergy.

PeZookia is nearly self-sufficient foodwise thanks to large tracts of arable land. It grows the staple crops of temperate climates: corn, wheat, rye, beans, potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers and various other minor crops. It is especially renowned for its meat, fruit and dairy products.

Main industries include steelworking, chemistry, electronics, shipbuilding, aerospace, railway equipment. PeZookia has a large manufacturing sector, but no branches except steelworking, chemistry and electronics are major competitors on the world market.

The government is a constitutional monarchy, with the monarch holding chief executive power. The parliament serves as an advisory body, holds the power of the purse, power of impeachment, and approves several constitutionally mandated royal edicts: for example, declaration of a person or organization an enemy of the state requires parliamentary approval, and so do war declarations.

The monarchy is not hereditary, but a pool of candidates is selected from the populace based on a series of meritocratic tests ; The current King's offspring is not barred from participating.

Once a series of suitable candidates are selected, they campaign before the public, and the Parliament approves of the new king-elect.

Major Update: 12/7/09,

Name: Republic of Cialan
Size: 600,321 KM
Population: 11,343,232 million
GPD: 501 billion
Flag:

Map:

Red:Capital
Black: City
Blue: Airbase

Geography:

Size: 600,321 KM

Terrain: Cialan is a very mountainous country with the large Cavena Mountains at the centre of the country that go through the middle of it like a spine. The highest point is Quenson Peak which is 2300 meters high. Below the mountains rest many valley’s which lead into the many rivers of Cialan. The most notable river, the river Tifurn goes through the capital of Stanton. The mountains are also yield ore and compliment Cialans steel industry. The country is also heavily forested which has led to an active lumber industry. South East Cialan is filled with fertile land which is perfect for the large scale farming that goes on there and helps feed most of its populace as well as providing one of Cialan’s main exports. The north leads to many coastal areas with many pebble beaches.

Climate: Cialan has a very northern climate, cold and windy. In the winter it can go as low as -14c and snow and ice is a common place. In the summer it gets far warmer yet there still can be snow on the mountain tops.

Official Language: English

Government Type: Parliamentary democracy
Prime Minister: Micheal Thomason (Blue Iron Party)

Government Type: Parliamentary democracy. The Cialanian parliament building is located in Hound Square in the capital, Stanton. The building is 250 years old and was constructed to represent the new government and as a display of grandeur and to this day, it is still as grand as it once was. Around the building lie many smaller buildings constructed as offices, churches etc as well as many parks. Unfortunately the parliament building has been a victim of several attacks over the years. A reflection of Cialan’s less then stable state at times. Security is extremely tight due to this reason and there have even rumours of underground bunkers in the lower chambers of the building in case of a war.

Political Parties:
Blue Iron Party-centre left (in power): The Blue Iron party have been in power since 2004 and last captured 38% of the vote. The BIP have been a long supporter of the policy that Cialan should keep to itself and deal with its own problems, therefore “keeping out of harm’s way and dealing the issues of Cialan rather than the issues of others”. The party is also strong on green technology, contributing large amounts to renewable energy and the idea of carbon taxing as well as other issues such as abortion rights, and reform on the health system and other things. Recently the party has been pressured into following some of the ideas of the Cialan National Party in things like military expansion. Economically the party believes in the free market with heavy regulation.

Cialan National Party-center, center right: The Cialan National party has been one of the oldest political powers in Cialan, being over 102 years old, which is twice as old as the other main two parties. The CNP last captured 33% of the vote. The party stands for the idea that if Cialan is to prosper and grow, then it must be better defended, well prepared and that everyone must do their part, young and old. The party stands for military expansion (which has led to Cialan expanding some of its military on occasions). The party is also strong on the issues of tougher crime, including the death penalty, controlled immigration, the interest to get into space (shared with the BIP) and other issues

Wolven Peoples Party-left: The Wolven Peoples Part y was built out of the remains of the Peoples Capital Part, which lasted for 25 years. Now much reformed and changed, the party last captured 29% of the vote. The party is a strong believer of letting the government stay out of the people’s affairs in all areas. They support vast deregulation, large personal freedoms including the legalization of several drugs and various other things. Economically the party supports the free, unrestricted market as a way to guide the country and its choices.

Cialan Annual Spending: (2017)
20% Health (81 bill)
20% Social Protection (81 bill)
14% Education (56.7 bill)
10% Defence (40.5 bill)
8% Transport (32.4 bill)
7% IAET (Industry, Agriculture, Employment and Training) (28.35 bill)
6% Public Order and Safety (24.3 bill)
5% Housing and Environment (20.25 bill)
3% Personal Social Services (12.15 bill)
3% Debt Interest (12.15 bill)
3% Other (12.15 bill)
---------------------
2016: 2% Surplus (8.1 bill)

Energy:

40% Coal
22% Natural Gas
15% Nuclear Power
10% Oil
8% Wind Power
3% Hydroelectric
2% Solar Power

Despite the expansion of Nuclear power and renewable energy, Coal and Natural Gas still dominate a large portion of Cialan’s energy supply. Both sources come from mainly Cialan itself with natural gas platforms and coal mines but their steady depletion has pushed Cialan to use other methods. The 1990 nuclear power act meant that many new reactors where built. Due to Cialan’s windy weather and terrain, the country has also set up many wind farms, on shore and off shore.



Economy: The Cialanian economy is a mix of capitalistic and socialist policies. It features a heavily regulated free market with still features an active industrial sector that is estimated in the 2015 census to employ 30% of the populace. The various industries including steel work and precious gem mining are propped up with government subsidies to help them keep them competitive and afloat. Despite this fact the shift to more commercial sectors is happening and aids in the unrest that Cialan has. Various programs have also been invested in the Cialanian farming industry to help develop it. Tourism has been a newer but more profitable industry for Cialan with people coming to see its natural beauty. Agriculture is estimated to employ 28% of the populace. Cialan’s GPD is currently rising by 3% every year.
The country has a hunger for electronics and oil which are in high demand with Cialan’s car usage still growing (despite green policies trying to lower it) and the country’s vast development in ICT and networks.
Main Exports: Wheat, precious stones/gems and steel and lumber.
Main Imports: Oil, Electronics, military hardware, cars and luxury goods.

Religion: Catholic 60%, Orthodox: 10%, Islam: 15%, Other: 10%, None: 5%

Judiciary System: Cialan’s system of law follows the standard of many with a judge and jury. Various sentences can be given out that include imprisonment, fines and forced labour as well as many criminal community service projects. The death penalty was once widely used but was banned by in the Justice System Reform Act of 1999 (a reform that also included rehabilitation education for some criminals). Despite this some powers to the police allow lethal force to be used if the state of things is dire enough. The country has a very active police force that has been given extensive powers from monitoring communication to being able to hold someone without trial for 70 days as well as a free reign to use many anti riot methods including rubber bullets, hosing and other methods. The country has a 5 levelled status (called PMOL) for the country and its current level of order which is as follows:

1. State Blue: Regular police operations and forces with little or no extensive actions needed.
2. State Yellow: Police patrols and operations are become more regular. Some communications and transport lines monitored and cut off.
3. State Orange: Police operations are massively extended to maintain order. More liberty given to detain and hold people as well as block more communication and transport. Curfew of 10pm in effect and some more brutal methods of riot prevention are allowed to be used. Limited liberty to block some medium sized areas off given.
4. State Red: Police given full power to block off whole lines of transport, communication and large areas. Various non lethal and lethal methods may be used to prevent more unrest at will. Curfew of 8pm in effect.
5. State Black: Martial law is in effect and most services are shut down. The army is brought in to help the police force and suspected criminals may found and shot with no trial.
The police will also work with the army and the coast guard to maintain order and stability.

Education: Education begins and 5 years old and primary school lasts until for 6 years with high school lasting until the student is 17 years of age. This is all free for all citizens. Colleges and universities are free until the person is 25 years old. Many courses offer a variety of subjects and can include education in several other countries as well.

Healthcare: Healthcare is universal with every citizen paying into to the system via taxes. Despite this an active private healthcare sector due to the flaws in the public healthcare system including mismanagement and limited treatment in some areas

History:

The Republic of Cialan is a very young country that has only existed in its current form for no more than 290 years from a collection of tiny states formed into one. Throughout the years the country has remained pretty much the same, a rich nation but with unstable government rife with corruption as well as many terrorist groups trying to push their own bloody interests forward. The republic has never really attracted much attention in international affairs as yet making it a rather nice but forgettable place.

In its current status the Republic of Cialan is one of active reform and turmoil as interests groups and other parties pound at the current party in power to change its ways. The country’s unrest is growing by the day and unless change is made, another era of unrest and chaos will bloom. The Drakun bay pipeline has been finished and now supplies the country with a lot more oil than it did before yet there is still a hunger for more.

Cialan, internal, politically has been a back and fourth game of accusations and insults though recently the BIP party has been slowly caving into the CNP, with the expansion of the military and its budgets from 6% to 10% and recent purchases.

Military:
Cialan has a small military due to its size and the reluctance to expand. There are several military academies including the notable Stanton Military College. Colleges offer courses that help get students interested in the military and help boost recruitment. Despite opposition, the Cialan government is looking to expand somewhat in all areas of the military.

Air Force: (Cialanian Air force) OOB:

The Cialanian Air Force is small, with only 3 major airbases in use (CrownsBerry, Balmoral and Axe Bridge). This reflects how small Cialan’s military on the whole is yet there are many plans for expansion. Trainer Jets are put in squadrons due to various reasons including emergency purposes.

Aerospace Weapons Systems

B-56G Stratojet: Heavily evolved four-engined version of Stratojet.

Basic Mission: Carries a 10,000 lb payload ato a combat radius of 2,130 nm at a cruise speed of 426 kts at a cruise altitude of 30-46,000 ft. Combat speed of 485 kts and service ceiling of 43-48,000 ft (depending on fuel load).

Payload:
1 x 22,000 lb bomb
or
1 x 12,000 lb bomb
or
2 x 4,000 lb bombs
or
6 x 2,000 lb bombs
or
12 x 1,000 lb bombs

RB-56H Stratojet: Heavily evolved four-engined version of Stratojet modified for the Electronic Warfare, and Reconnaisance roles. Wartime role is to create jamming corridors in an enemy's Air Defense Network that the B-56Gs can fly through.

Basic Mission: Carries electronic warfare and photographic reconnaisance equipment to a radius of 2,300 nm at a cruise speed of 426 kts at a cruise altitude of 30-46,000 ft. Combat speed of 484 kts and service ceiling of 43-48,000 ft (depending on fuel load).

DFB-56J Stratojet: Heavily evolved four-engined version of Stratojet. Role [CLASSIFIED BURN BEFORE READING].

KC-22 Antonov Four engined turboprop tanker. Conversion of Antonov 22s into airborne tankers (hence the KC-22 designation).

F-105K Thunderchief: Single engined fighter-bomber. Primary mission is the destruction of heavily defended enemy assets. Heavy modification of the F-105 airplane into a virtually all new aircraft, with new-build aircraft being delivered beginning in 1984. Key to the K Model Thunderchief is the Japanistani TF15 afterburning turbofan built under license in Shepistan. The TF15 produces 20,950 lbs of dry thrust and an astonishing 34,200 lbs of afterburning thrust; some 22% to 29% better than the old J75 on earlier Thunderchiefs, while having decreased SFC and weight. New composite-reinforced wings allow a heavier MTOW and bombload, along with a faster sea level speed of 800 knots (compared to 726 of older models). New wingtip hardpoints were added during the wing redesign process to allow a greater variety of munitions to be carried. Fuel tanks were also added to the edges of the wing for greater endurange.

F-100G Super Sabre: Single engined fighter-bomber. Primary mission is to act as COIN aircraft in the mountainous regions. G models are F-model Sabres built in the 1970s upgraded with F404 engines and modern heads up displays. In the interdiction mission, they can deliver 3,360 lbs of Mk 82s to 340 nautical miles; or 1,650 lbs of bombs to 650 nm with 2 x 335 gallon drop tanks. Future upgrade to the H model is planned with a digital fly by wire system to eliminate the F-100's pilot killing characteristics, which while mitgated in the G model, are not quite fully gone.

F-101G Voodoos: Twin-engined multi-role aircraft. Continued evolution of F-101B two-seat model. H model Voodoos are new-build aircraft built from 1980 onwards; with F404 engines and modern radars. In an area intercept role, they can carry 2,000 lbs of air to air weaponry to a combat radius of 750 nautical miles at a cruise speed of 460~ knots with two 450 gallon drop tanks. Due to the reduction in volume of the new air-to-air radars; a pair of 20mm revolver cannons are fitted with 200 rounds per gun in the nose.

F-104K Starfighter: The type is rapidly being retired from the Shepistani Air Force; for it has a limited combat radius of only 440~ nm with two AIM-9 class weapons and two drop tanks containing 400 gallons of fuel.

F-99F BOMARC: 2,400 in service with ADC. Long Range Heavy SAM. Designed to destroy enemy combat aircraft and missiles at ranges exceeding 600 nautical miles at a cruise speed of Mach 3.4 at 83,000 feet. When fired against low altitude targets in search mode, it has a range exceeding 300 miles. The F models differ over the earlier E models in that they now carry a small internal on board jammer to decoy enemy missiles. 384 lb warhead enables both fixed and aerial targets to be attacked and destroyed with a high probability of success.

F-106H Delta Dart: 504 in service with ADC. Single engined interceptor. Brand new construction. Deliveries began in 1984. Once again, as with the F-105K, the Japanistani TF15 is key to the F-106H's astounding performance, offering 22% to 29% greater thrust for lower installed weight and SFC. It is rumored that the preproduction aircraft exceeded Mach 3 in a dive; though this claim cannot be verified by independent aerospace experts. Other major changes include a redesign of the nose to mount the AN/ASG-30, an all-digital version of the AN/ASG-18.

Mig-15/17 288 in service in Reserves. Most have been re-engined with CFE738 Turbofans, for improved reliability and operating costs, along with significantly increased ranges (0.369 SFC vs 0.9 SFC). Mainly used as flying trainers for the Shepistani Civil Air Patrol (SCAP). In case of war, the SCAP becomes an auxilary of the Shepistani Air Force (SAF).

F-84L Thunderjet 576 in service with reserves. Primary aircraft of the Shepistani Air Force Reserves. Most date from the 1960s, when production of the F-84 finally ceased in Shepistan. Each year, about 24 are stricken from service due to fatigue limits. The L model adds a glass HUD, along with digital engine controllers to simplify the pilot's workload. There is much concern over the future of the Shepistani Air Force Reserves; for at present rates of attrition, every three years, a Fighter Group is subtracted from the rolls. Accordingly, a tender has been placed to begin the Light Attack Plane, Reserve (LAPR) to all interested parties.

Country name: conventional long form: Empire of Tian Xia

Capital: Hong Kong (approximately in location of Toronto)

GDP (PPP): $5 trillion

A Brief History:

Tian Xia has been in existence as a continuous entity for approximately the last 1000 years. It’s gone through 7 dynasties, with the usual route of change being a noble revolting against the current emperor (Huang Di), and succeeding, demonstrating that the previous dynasty had lost the “Mandate of Heaven”. One of the dynasties was a short lived one that resulted from a successful invasion by a barbarian tribe. Another was a result of usurpation by the Grand Vizier.

In recent history, Tian Xia went into an isolationist phase as a result of a series of wars with its neighbors in the early 1600s. In the early 1700s, Tian Xia was involved in another series of wars with its neighbors and became imperialist, eventually conquering most of them. It then expanded overseas, conquering several overseas possessions. In 1815, a rogue duke attacked Cascadia, in a bid to gain more power. This failed spectacularly, with most of his force ending up dead on the field of battle. Apparently the duke believed it was better to beg forgiveness than to ask for permission. Such a strategy only works when you succeed. As a result of this failure, the nobility was stripped of their monopoly on command of military units.

This was the rise of the citizen class, which would eventually end up receiving its own house in the legislature. Citizenship requires service to the state. Most common way now is through public works projects (replanting forests, building trails, etc). Second most common is through military service.

Government:
Tian Xia is ruled by the Hui dynasty. The current Huang Di (Emperor) took the reign name Beowulf on his ascension to the throne. He is assisted by the legislature known as the National Assembly. Judicially, he is helped by a large court system. The Huang Di remains an autocrat, able to override any decision made by the other two branches.

The National Assembly was split in 1815 into two houses. The House of Lords consists entirely of nobility. It was formerly the only component of the National Assembly. The House of Citizens consists of members of the citizenry, chosen by the citizenry. Each house has its own methods of selecting it’s members. Generally speaking the Lords contains everyone who has not been denied the right to sit in it. The House of Citizens is elected from the population, according to districts. Lords are barred from membership. The Assembly as a whole is led by the Premier, who is chosen by the Huang Di, and traditionally comes from the House of Citizens.

The judiciary is a hierarchical system of four levels. The top is the Huang Di. Below him sits the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court consists of seven members. The next lower step is the Appeals Courts, followed up the various District Courts, which are run by the local Chief Magistrate.

Infrastructure:
The primary mode of transportation is trains. They are generally electric powered by catenaries. There actually exists two separate heavy rail networks. The passenger network operates at a much higher speed than the freight network, which requires a different set of rails.

Power is supplied primarily through nuclear power. 80% of the energy is produced by this method, generally using thermal breeder reactors that can be have their bred fissiles removed without shutdown. The remaining reactors are newer, and of a pebble bed design. 5% of the remainder is through wind power. The last is from gas turbines used for peak power production.
