Nation Name: Wehdaistan
Territory: Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan. Lays claim to Pakistan, which is currently in the Commonwealth.
Government: Military dictatorship.
Military: Wehdaistan forces all men to serve a year of military service and training, which allows for a defensive army to quickly be drafted in the event of an invasion. The large automation of the economy also leads many to join the military in search of a stable job. The Wehdaistan Military is spilt into two parts.
-Army. The Wehdaistan army is devoted to ground force operations and defence. Anti-vehicle weapons are at the cutting edge of technology and are capable of destroying most ground vehicles. Troops, assuming that they aren't fresh conscripts, are highly trained and specialised. The Wehdaistan Imperial Force (WIF) contains many infiltration teams dedicated to assassinating high ranking officials and disrupting enemy logistics.
-Air force. The Wehdaistan Air force consists primarily of interception fighters to prevent enemy bombers from reaching their targets. Drop ships also play a role in the Air Force, being used to get large amounts of men to the front lines, or behind them, quickly. Bombers only make up a very small portion of the WAF, with Wehdaistan primarily using the ones they have on enemy troops.
Economy: Wehdaistan focuses its economy on the production and refinement of raw goods. Factories are largely automated by robots, which surpassed the cost-effectiveness and efficiency of human labourers a long time ago. Self driving cars, trains and buses dominate the transportation industry, and large industrial warehouses have crates shifted and packed by small robots, then sent off on their journey in self-driving vans and trucks. Mailing sorting robots however, have not been perfected, leaving a few old souls working in the post industry.
Agriculture, mining and oil digging are still human dominated industries, as is the military. Efforts into automated planting and harvesting systems are in place, as are attempts to create basic combat A.I. Wehdaistan contains deposits of oil and various raw ores and metals.
History: Kazakhstani general Micetto Wafa' realized that the outbreak of World War III was an opportunity to unite the -stans, given their shared history and similar cultures. He gained the approval of the government for an ambitious military campaign that would forge a united -stanic nation. In late 2026, Kazakhstan launched a swift strike to neutralize any threat the Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan military's posed.
The quick offensive caught them off guard, causing an easy annexation into Kazakhstan. Micetto told the government that they needed to give their newly annexed countries better conditions than they previously had. When the government refused, Micetto organized his loyal soldiers and overthrew the government in a coup. He set up a military dictatorship but swore to treat his people right.
After kicking out the former government, Micetto implemented reforms for his people to improve living conditions, as well as increasing science funding. Then, in 2028, he launched another lightning fast assault, this time into Turkmenistan. People there had heard of how Kazakhstan has such a high standing of living, and many enemy soldiers threw down their guns and joined the Kazakhstani forces willingly. There was a similar effect when Kazakhstan declared war on Tajikistan and Afghanistan in 2037.
After this, the name was changed to Wehdaistan to give a greater sense of unity and equality amongst it's citizens. During World War IV, Wehdaistan remained largely untouched, other than a few border skirmishes with Russia.
Other: R.I.P TLF.
Here's a map with me on it.
