Telvaria
Nation's History
A smaller nation in the harsh northern tundras, Telvaria is home to born fighters and survivors. Originally settled as a penal colony by the Kingdom of Dereham. The hard frozen ground of the tundra proved to hold silver and so began the mines. As time grew on, more and more minerals were discovered, gold, iron, coal, oil. Yet so too did the unrest of the people forced to live there grow. Whispers of changing times brought a new life to the desolate land however, and soon the people saw their chance. During the Great Revolution of Major Robert A. Glenshaw, the people of Telvaria saw a new hope. Quick to escape the boot heel of their rulers, the self appointed leaders sent their deceleration of independence to Major Glenshaw. The supply trains to Dereham ground to a halt. With news of the death of King John, the unrest came to an end in Telvaria. While Major Glenshaw consolidated the lands in Dereham, the newly formed Telvari government sent out a Declaration of independence, and an offer. In return for agricultural goods, and a military alliance, resources would continue to flow to the newly formed Dereham Republic. Without much choice aside from continued bloodshed the declaration was accepted. Thus began a new Telvaria, a never ending cycle of food, resources, technology, and friendship brought Telvaria from the colony of criminals it started as, to a thriving industrial powerhouse, for its relatively small size.

Air Force Overview

5th Telvari Aerchóir

The 5th Telvari Air Corps is the fledgling nations pride. Though the smallest branch of its military, with a mere 5,00 personnel, the air corps carries its weight with head held high. Under the command of Maor-ghinearál Isaac Ó Conghalaigh the small force conitunes to be the pride of Telvaria. With pilots, and crewmen consistently producing new blueprints, and designs for aircraft, Mullingar Armament Foundry continously pours through designs, creating and scrapping those they deem feasible.

The Grey Mac Tíre.

The first airship to be created at great expense to the nation, The Grey Wolf is the pinnacle of the Telvari Air corps. With a defensive armament consisting of 8 25 mm AA guns, and 2 50 mm AA guns. Any aircraft approaching the Wolf is in for a nasty shock. As well as having an internal hangar, capable of carrying 6 fighter/bombers in launchers, with another 8 on racks, ready to be moved to the launchers. The Wolf more than makes up for its unwieldy size, and less than ideal speed.

X-42 "Woad"



The new mainstay of the Telvari Air Corps, the X-42, is the Telvari fighter/bomber proved truly a capable work horse. Large enough to carry four forward firing .50 cal machine guns, as well as payload of 2-250lb bombs, yet small enough to be docked aboard the Grey Wolf. The Woad is first, and so far only, line of Air support for the small nation.
