Krodnanian empire
Flag:
Taritory: light red
Government: Facist dictatorship.
History: originally a series of villages and mining outposts, the empire practically formed overnight after blue coal was discovered. Although at first the once peaceful villages began building up armys, and a fue skermishes broke out here and there, the majority of the village eventually decided to band together as one united empire when a man named Isof broght up the fact that they made an easy target for neighboring contrys in nead of resources. He was instantly placed incharge by the rest of the community under the thinking that it would be his flault if they were all killed. as soon as Isof organized there army and set up some basic infer structure, he began convincing the intire nation that the world was in chaos and that only a strong leader (I.E. Him) could bring order. This was a slow process, starting with only a few close friends and more gullible officials, but this way of thinking grew exponentially in popularity and eventually anyone who didn't take it to heart was often lynched as they were "part of the chaos". Isof, with the country now in his hands, was able to build factories and citys from meager shantytowns, and was quickly growing mad with power. He demanded a wall to be built around there borders, and that anyone who he deemed untrustworthy executed on the spot. Unfortunately for him, the wall he demanded built was taken far to personally by one of his prouder generals who claimed he didn't nead a wall to protect their nation, and had Isof exicuted. And so it went for years. A new leader would appoint themselves of the basses that ther grandfather was king of such-and-such, would run the country for a fur years, and be killed by a jealous rival or revolutionary movement. Gradually the idea of a world in chaos faded away, until a young Skoin Krout discovered a book about the chaos of the world and how it was up to the Krodnads to bring order to the world. Mistakeing it for a scripture, he went to the streets, and convinced the empire that they must save the world just like Isof had years ago. Unlike Isof, Skoin had a son of whom was actually quite brilliant. This son, Rek Krout, lead the country through his father, and eventually gained power after having anyone powerful enough to stop him, including his father, assassinated and replaced by those of unflinching support of him. Now, he looks to the world with a nation full of fanatics and those who fear to go against him, looking for a way to increasing his ever growing power.
Economy: official the government makes its income by selling natural gas and blue coal it mines from the tundra and buys large amounts of food and cloth. Unofficial they make a killing off of an underground alcohol market.
Military: Allong the south eastern border, a gigantic wall runs from the coast to the ice sheats. Barbed wire, tank traps, hidden pitfalls and mines saround this wall , and snipers constantly patrol for anyone looking to get in or out. Behind the wall, the army lies waiting for atack. Although relatively small in numbers, the army is incredible advanced and well funded, and mostly comprised of huge steam driven land battleships and other tanks, all of which are built to be nearly bullet proof.
Of course this comes at a price, as the force is extremely slow, and is easily targeted by mortar fire. the navy on the other hand is small, outdated, and weak. Not having any major enemy across the ocean, there navy was never a priority and consists of about 20-30 patrol boats of various origins. Most of the boats are just captured smugglers with a deck gun bolted on and a fresh coat of Arctic camouflage if the new captain feals like it. Only about 5 of the ship's crews have seen actual combat.
Tech: although relitively average overall, there military tech is incredible advanced and well funded. There tanks are getting bigger and bigger as quickly as ore can be dug up to build them, and recently the scientists have been experimenting with the military capabilities of aircraft
