Breaching these rules may result in a user being expelled from this RP at the OP Board's discretion.

The aftermath of the Great War of 1913-1919 saw the world a new place, the product of six years of unrestricted warfare across the globe, plus countless "lesser" conflicts that have caused no less misery and destruction. Trenches still criss-cross the scarred European countryside, while millions live in squalor in the slums of Guangzhou and Nanjing and millions more flee a Russia that has collapsed before the vision of the Bolsheviks. Some trenches were turned into mass graves and covered with corpses and dirt. Thousands of miles of minefields and barbed wire stand rusting, wet with the dew of the new morning that never came. Craters and ashes now are where once was, for example, a white farmhouse: the oxen are long dead, their powerful muscles gone with the smoke-filled wind. Perhaps there stands a monument on one end of the former battlefield, grim and dead in relation to the youth that fought and died for the sake of empires already on their deathbed. Perhaps there is no monument, but a hole in the ground with an assorted collection of bones.

A man once said that the worst disaster that ever befell Russia was the birth of Lenin, the second worst his death. The Russian Empire ended with the Great War, replaced by a fashionable red star and Marx's hammer and sickle. In the West are the Bolsheviks, sworn to follow Lenin, flying the red flags of revolution. In the Urals is Kolchak, his large volunteer army willing to sacrifice anything to avoid communism. The Reds and the Whites, that is what they are called. Many still believe that both are brothers and that Russia is pink, but now some believe that that is not the case. The Tsar has been forced to abdicate, and the royal family has been exiled from the country, and have taken refuge in Luxembourg, hoping to see the monarchy restored from afar- but now the ruby stars of the Kremlin gleam bright, as Trotsky's Trans-Ural Offensive opens with the aim of sweeping Kolchak into Siberia and the Sea of Okhotsk.

In the west, proud France and Italy are also burning with the fires of Revolution: Communists are close to triumph in Italy, with only scant forces left to combat them; France has seen Paris burn twice over the course of three years, both times by her own countrymen. The country of the tricolor is locked into a war that has evolved into Spanish-style Guerilla warfare, with actives spread through the country fighting for either side. The German steamroller has been broken in the Great War; twice were the Russians about to reach Berlin, and twice did the valiant blood of the sons of Germany push them back with cries of Kaiser! Deutschland! The Hapsburg empire is nearing collapse, already there is open rebellion in Hungary, which the broken Austrian army cannot realistically put down without foreign aid. Britain faces the peculiar problem that the British wish to be independent from each other. All of Europe, still sick with grief from the horrific loss of the Great War, now watches in horror as bloodshed begets further bloodshed in France and Italy. As Revolution burns in Russia, Italy, and France, China's young emperor emerges from that country's recent political chaos with a burning ambition to restore his empire, and Columbia reaches across the Atlantic to prop up a Europe sick and tired of bloodshed, the clock has struck midnight in Moscow, and a new chapter of history is about to begin, one that will usher in a world changed beyond the wildest dreams of all those who have preceded it.

The Empire of the Great Qing, AKA China, the Chinese Empire, or the Empire of China, is a large state in Eastern Asia dominating Inner China, Mongolia, Manchuria, and Xinjiang. The current ruling dynasty, the Qing, rose to power in 1644 following the collapse of the Ming dynasty, and is only the second non-Han Chinese dynasty to rule Inner China. The capital has remained in Beijing (often romanized as Peking) since the dynasty's inception. In the last century or so the Qing dynasty has struggled to modernize China and keep pace with the West, and China has suffered serious internal unrest several times due to the instability that continues to plague the empire.

Government and Administrative Divisions

The Emperor, advised by the Grand Council (the heads of the Eight Organs of the State), is an absolute monarch and can overrule any decision made by lower-level officials.
The Qing government is broadly divided into eight major governing organs known as the Eight Organs of the State- the Six Old Ministries, the New Ministries, and the Grand Secretariat. The Six Old Ministries are as follows: the Board of War (responsible for the military), the Board of Punishments (responsible for the courts and the criminal justice system), the Board of Civil Appointments (responsible for the appointment or release of officials), the Board of Rites (responsible for court and foreign affairs), the Board of Finance (responsible for the empire's treasury, taxation, and spending), and the Board of Works (responsible for government construction projects).
The Grand Secretariat is a large government apparatus overseeing the minutiae and small business of running the empire. It runs the nation's extensive bureaucracy and administers the empire, helping take much of the load off of the Emperor and the Grand Council.
The New Ministries presently only consist of the Ministry of Domestic Tranquility, which is responsible for keeping public order, ensuring social unity, and overseeing the prosecution of traitors and opponents to the state.

Military

The Chinese military has undergone significant reforms in the last few decades, but remains overall a cumbersome force of ten to eleven million with largely obsolete equipment and poor morale and training. It is divided into a number of sections, all overseen by the Board of War. The Imperial Chinese Army is the blanket categorization of the Empire's ground forces, which are subdivided into several segments. The Army's best units are the New Armies, modern, well-trained and well-equipped forces modeled after European armies and equipped with the latest weaponry and training. The New Armies have a reasonably competent, if young and somewhat small, officer corps, and are excellent fighting forces capable of going toe-to-toe with any European army. They are battle-hardened, and without a doubt the dynasty's finest soldiers. Very few MDT officers serve alongside them, as their loyalty is basically unquestioned.
The Eight Banners are another segment. Bannermen are in general less well-equipped and well-trained, but are still some of the dynasty's best troops. They are largely cavalry, with most being ethnically Manchu or Mongol. Each of the Eight Banners has its own small air fleet, and they are more independent from the central command structure. Because of some corruption issues amongst the Manchu nobles who serve as higher officers, the Ministry of Domestic Tranquility has a fair number of political agents disseminated in Banner command and Banner companies.
The Green Standard Army comprises the largest portion of Chinese troops, and compared to the New Armies or the Banners is somewhat pathetic. The Green Standard forces are a mixture of volunteers and militia and conscripted men, all of whom are poorly equipped and badly undertrained. Most serve in city garrisons, but they also act as a police force or gendarmerie in many cities, particularly in the south. Frequently officers will distribute opium or alcohol amongst the men prior to an attack to dull their senses, and the Ministry of Domestic Tranquility has many political officers serving alongside Green Standard companies, who not only deal with disloyal troops or shirkers, but also help whip the opium-addled or drunk soldiers into a frenzy prior to an attack. The greatest advantage the Green Standard Army has is its tremendous numbers

The Spanish Republic (Spanish: República Española, Portuguese: República Espanhola, Catalan: República Espanyola, Basque: Espainiako Errepublika, Arabic: الجمهورية الأسبانية) is a large Spanish Federal Republic originating out of the union of the Castilian, Portuguese and Aragonese crowns, and the revolutions which followed. The House of Bourbon claims the title of Monarch of Spain.

Government

The Spanish Republic is a federation of 27 states, 2 free cities and 1 federal district. In addition, the nation rules over five unorganised territories (Guinea, Malaysia, Angola, Aceh and Mozambique) and three unincorporated territories (São Tomé and Príncipe, Yemen and the Philippines). The unorganised territories are merely colonies, whereas the unincorporated territories are on the road to statehood. The Phillipines is the closest to gaining statehood, followed by São Tomé and Príncipe and then by Yemen. There are two houses in the Cortes Generales. The upper house is the Senado de España, the lower house is the Congreso de los Diputados. The leader of the republic is the Presidente, who is elected separately in the Presidential Elections. The other leader is the Primer Canciller, which is elected from the members of the Congreso by the members of the Congreso. There is also the Gran Senador, who represents the Senado and is elected from within it.

Political Parties

Politics in the Spanish Republic is, in general, split between two blocks; the Coalition of the Popular Front (Coalición del Frente Popular) and the Holy Alliance of Spanish Patriots (Santa Alianza de Patriotas Españoles). The Popular Front is a left-wing coalition lead by the Partido Popular Socialista de España and also consisting of the Partido de los Progresistas Sociales, the Partido de los Socialdemócratas, the Partido Revolucionario Social Española, the Partido de Centro, the Català Partit Republicà, the Partido Popular Portuguesa, the Euzko Gudarostea and the Partido Galeguista. It also consists of non-party organisations, such as the Confederación Nacional del Trabajo, the Federación Anarquista Ibérica and the Gran Unión de Trabajadores de España. The Holy Alliance is led by the Partido Católico Nacional Conservador together with the Alianza de Monárquicos y Realistas, and various other monarchist, reactionary and conservative movements.

Confederation of Scandinavia

Generic Info
Nation Name: Confederation of Scandinavia (also Scandinavian Confederation)
Symbols: Flag: http://i.imgur.com/a47cYNa.png , Motto: "aequus et iustus" (equal and just), National Animal: Lion (heraldic)
Homeland Population: 9 million (Sweden 3.5, Denmark 3, Norway 2.5)
Imperial Population: 3 million
Location/Claims: Already on map
Capital City: Stockholm

Government Info
Government Type: Federal bicameral parliamentary ceremonial constitutional monarchy
Brief Explanation of Government: The government, being confederal, delegates, via the constitution, much power to the federal divisions; Denmark, Sweden and Norway, divisions via language and history, further divided into smaller subunits (electorates) in each country. Each of these smaller subunits is a seat, holding one vote and one chair in the unified parliament held in Stockholm. They, as a body, constitute the lower house, elected separately (using approval voting) to the upper house. The upper house, the house that receives legislature from the lower house, is proportionally represented by candidates from all across the country, via runoff voting. This constitutes the bicameral parliament. The chancellor, head of government, is elected by giving each member of the upper house and lower house a vote proportional to 0.5/<number of members within their house>, resulting in the total of votes from both houses being 1, or 100%. However, all efforts are made to keep the number of representatives in both houses equal, as the number of upper house members is determined by little else, whereas population determines members of the lower. With inter-house votes being callable at effectively any point, this ensures that the chancellor must grant ministerial positions such that MPs continue keeping him chancellor. In addition, ministerial positions for individual realms must be granted to "citizens" (people registered as affiliated with) of a realm, a requirement to be elected to the lower house from a seat in said realm. The monarch plays effectively no role, but does help mediate, preside and act as a stabilising, calm, symbolic public figure.
Ideology: Federalism, Scandinavian unity, liberalism, social (not quite socialism), democracy, secularism
Leader/s: King Hans III of Denmark, II of Norway and IV of Sweden of the House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Augustenburg (King John III of Denmark, II of Norway and IV of Sweden of the House of Slesvig-Holsten-Sonderborg-Augustenborg), Chancellor Oskar Strand, Vice-Chancellor Marcus Zackerborg

Population Info
Brief Description of your people: A plurality of the population is Swedish, speaking Swedish, with the Danish-speaking Danish-cultured and similarly Norwegian portions following behind. Most have the typical build of a Scandinavian, therefore. Scandinavia is much more egalitarian and wealthy compared to the rest of Europe in the state it's in right now (due to WWI), and as such, the populace may be considered generally well-off, with socialistic elements creeping in that help to keep people even off the streets in most cases. Generally, the population is culturally united and living as very much first-world citizens, though there's not a terrible great number of them.
Religion: While almost all citizens are Lutheran and most colonial subjects are as well, the state is officially and functionally secular.
Ethnicity: Scandinavian
Main/Accepted Culture(s): Swedish, Danish, Norwegian (and Icelandic, even Faroese if you consider those cultures, which I wouldn't, especially with the Scandinavian unity movement uniting them into three main branches)
Other Cultures: Lapps, Finns, Saami, Inuits, perhaps. They're generally in such small numbers and being assimilated so quickly that it's irrelevant though. Lack of discrimination against Jews also stops them from being a notable different cultural group due to integration.

Economy/Infrastructure Info
Brief Description of your Economy: A very mixed economy, run with a capitalist core heavily regulated by stringent government controls, a discerning public and tariffs that provide ample income without being stifling, works with efficiency unmarred by instability; something that, curiously enough, already gives it great boons over many neighbours. The market's primary, secondary and tertiary sectors are all in growth, and even quaternary sectors, speculation and more see expansion, though the government does occasionally look unfavourably at some growth, such as at those who might sponge off, or the black market, which has grown due to the economic situation in Scandinavia's neighbours. Generally, the nation's finances are in good shape and working well, with such problems as corruption, inflation, unemployment and more kept relatively low, and both internal and external trade flows with at least some degree of vitality.
Main exports: Iron, forestry products, furs, medical goods, petrol, fish, generally industrial & consumer goods, especially electric
Main imports: Other metals, fruits, fabrics, luxury goods (e.g. coffee, artworks, semi-precious stones, etc.)
Brief Description of your Infrastructure: Scandinavia is a well-developed, well-connected nation, as could be expected for one based very much around industry and quality rather than quantity (due to necessity). Roads and the occasional rain criss-cross the Jutland and Scandinavian peninsulas that make up most of the landmass of the country, and bridges connect almost all the major Danish islands with the exception of Sjaelland and the islands connected being connected to either continental side, due to technical difficulty, economic reasons and the allowance of shipping lanes. In terms of buildings, Scandinavia, though not the most prolific, tends to be at least near the forefront of architecture, and most structures are essentially well-maintained and sturdy, though they do have to pay more attention to insulation and the weight of snow than in many parts of the world.

Military Info
Army: The army has 3 branches; infantry, artillery and special. Infantry includes engineers and has about 50,000 actives with another 100,000 reserves, artillery includes tanks (Scandinavian industry ftw) and has about 10,000 actives with 25,000 reserves and special includes all other land actions, from assassinations to superweaponry, with about 1,000 operatives and no reserves. Generally, all three branches are of top-notch quality, trained, armed and paid well enough to compare to any other European Great Power's military, except in numbers. Notably, the special branch has quite the reputation, and is arguably the most advanced force of its type in the world, even if the infantry and artillery have no particularly special elan other than a nationalism which is lacking in the nations undergoing revolution or having recently recovered from instability.
Navy: Though Scandinavia is almost jammed between some of the foremost naval powers' territory, it still maintains a fairly decent force. In order to dominate the Baltic, keep open lanes to colonies and maintain a notable presence in the North Sea, it has one battleship, seven cruisers, twenty destroyers and sixty-four corvettes within normal classifications, in addition to research into carriers, and thirty-three submarines, plus hundreds of other vessels; for troop transport, supplies, patrol, decommissioned, under construction and more. Overall, the navy is well-funded and the funds it has used to good effect in keeping it ship-shape (huehuehue) but its numerical limitations and competition in the region render it second-class against the backdrop of the GPs. About 50,000 people are somehow employed by the navy, whether as sailors or otherwise.
Air Force: The concept of the air being used in a military context is nearly as old as the nation itself, unlike many other nations which have had more established traditions, and as such, Scandinavia has been one of those nations which has, with a plan, wholeheartedly rushed into having an air force. With conflicts breaking out in Europe, it established its air force, and quickly pushed it in an attempt to get an edge that it cannot possess in naval or army theatres. While actual superiority or dominance in the air has not been achieved, Scandinavia's air force can still be recognised as first class, with several dozen fighters and similar numbers of bombers, transports and other models all manned by a growing group who will soon provide the experienced core of the entire branch. Research is encouraged and funded greatly, and innovation perhaps most rampant in this branch, especially with the nation's industrial bent so helpful in this regards. About 10,000 people are involved in this branch of the military.

Diplomacy Info
Brief description of your Foreign Policy: Generally, Scandinavia is quite neutral for a power of its size, and it really doesn't have much in the way of imposition on other nations; its ideologies are all sufficiently centrist and unfanatical enough to leave it politically unwilling to intervene for such matters. However, due to the violent nature of communist revolutions, as well as its basically capitalist economy (no matter how many social elements obscure it over the top), and its social liberalism, it does tend to lean towards libertarians as opposed to authoritarians quite heavily, and is generally fairly left-wing (especially with women's suffrage legalised and secularism so dominant). Generally, Scandinavia seeks to stay away from war, and to secure for itself what peace and prosperity it can, if with an alliance, then so be it.
Protectorates/Dominions/Satellites: Finland might be considered a satellite, with Scandinavia naturally its closest partner after its separation from Russia, and indeed, though no formal lopsided agreements exist, there is a strong movement for the union of Finland, for it to be included in Scandinavia as a fourth realm, alongside Denmark, Sweden and Norway. In addition, strong influence is exuded over Estonia, and lesser influence over Latvia and Haiti via the Virgin Islands, but these are much weaker, and certainly not quite satellite level (though the association with Estonia might develop into such an arrangement should Finland be integrated).
Alliance/Alignments: At present, Scandinavia seeks to cultivate relations with all its neighbours except Russia, due to its revolution which is regarded as exploitable. Among them are the USC, Germany, Great Britain, the Baltic States and Poland, with the relationship with Great Britain and Germany more a vague alignment in the hope that mutually useful agreements might be reached (Schleswig-Holstein and the Shetlands are desirable, and trade often collides, but rivalry is likely too hard to meaningfully achieve), and the Baltic States and Poland lose attempts at impressing some sort of Scandinavian presence on the non-directly owned Baltic.
Other aspects: Though Scandinavia seeks to be neutral, this is only a rough policy, and realistically, all it seeks is either peace or little victories via realpolitik.

Other Info
Goals: Perhaps to acquire such regions as the Baltic States, notably Estonia, Schleswig-Holstein, the Shetlands (maybe even Orkney), Kola, Karelia, and generally most of the Baltic coast, though all of these are very very distant aspirations (except Finland which is hoped will likely be integrated). Mainly, to be rich, prosperous, peaceful, stable, unified and powerful in terms that don't require war. Colonies would be nice, but the government does recognise that their usefulness is diminishing, and that there is not a great deal to be had of them left.
History: Basically, RL history (except some dynasty screwing that I only did to avoid a French house, that of Bernadotte, because it sounds weird) until First Schleswig-Holstein War, which didn't occur, Denmark instead simply being pressured into giving up land. This helped the Scandinavian movement, which saw it as a disunited Scandinavia being beat up by its neighbours, and union was eventually instituted with Sweden agreeing to compromise while leading. The union did well, did all the normal things northern European powers did (Africaaa), but avoided getting screwed over in the screwiness that's currently all over Europe and sits here now.

Federal Division Hierarchy:
1 Confederation (Scandinavia)
\/
3 Realms (Denmark, Norway, Sweden, soon perhaps Finland)
\/
~600 Electorates (Faroes, Central Stockholm, etc.)

Each electorate of around 20,000 people elects a member to the lower house, the Assembly. As such, there is around 600 seats in the assembly. This number shifts, though, as in order to maintain the rough number, electoral boundaries are often changed, and the number of people to an electorate is slowly increasing as well. The elections are done by approval voting; a voter either ticks or crosses a candidate's name, a cross giving them no votes and a tick giving them one. They may tick or cross as many names as they wish, though only one tick or cross may be put to a name. This method means that appeal to the widest audiences is the main factor, which helps to keep the assembly both mainstream and moderate. Such elections are held every 4 years. The assembly holds session on the right wing of the Parliament of Scandinavia building; if one approaches its main entrance, the large, circular building on the right is the assembly. The parliament holds session on graduated circular seating around a central empty space, used only for navigation to and from seats at beginning and end of sessions. The lower house drafts legislation, running it through until it is passed with a majority vote by its members, whereupon it goes to the upper house. It has no particular special powers.

The upper house, the Senate, receives legislation from the lower house. The senate is proportionally elected, with voluntary cutoff runoff the voting method used. Using this method, each election, per 8 years, sees a number of senators elected as is the same as the number of members of the assembly at that time. These senators vote and work largely in the same manner as the people in the assembly, except that when legislation is rejected, it is sent back to the lower house, often with reasons cited that can be grounds for debate and amendment, and when accepted, is passed. It holds session on the parliament's left, in a similar circular sitting arrangement.

The Chancellor, head of government, is elected by the two houses. Votes for the position of chancellor may be called at any time by any member of parliament and when they are, the senate and assembly convene as soon as possible, with members of each having exactly one vote each for election of chancellor. The only exception is that votes may not be called more than once on a day nor on the day after to prevent disruption of actual debate. A chancellor is actually elected from the parliament. The chancellor holds an equal amount of power to each house's collective opinion (e.g. 1/3 to each house and then to the chancellor) in appointing portfolios for the government, and as such usually largely decides it, the houses having appointed the chancellor in the first place and agreeing mostly. However, discrepancies can emerge, and in many ways, the figure of the chancellor is the pinpoint of centralisation and the place for the manifestation of the non-moderate mood's prevalence, the person elected having a great deal of power as long as they can keep the MPs on their side.

The role of realms is largely constrained to their federal governments, ever less powerful, having to be chosen from citizens of said realm. The federal governments are mainly administrative bodies, appointed in the same way as national portfolios.

The monarchy's role in all of this is minimal. Though it nominally approves everything done, recent constitutional amendments have taken its actual power down to very little. It is still a prominent symbolic entity, and possibly one for mediation and as an outlet for the state's sentiment, but it usually does little other than that, if that at all. Its system of succession is male-preference cognatic primogeniture, after a recent change from agnatic primogeniture that occurred around the same time as the granting of the right to vote to women (extending the vote to all Scandinavians over the age of 18, barring those mentally unstable, currently incarcerated, fugitives, etc.)

The Austrian Empire

WIP

Anticipated Questions:

Is it the Austrian Empire, or the Empire of Austria?
The de jure name is The Austrian Empire. Karl doesn't really care if you address his nation as The Empire of Austria, but it's just annoying and erroneous to do it all the time.

Who do I address correspondence to?
General letters should be addressed to the Austrian Foreign Minister, and should also include the Kaiser, as to show traditional respect to the sovereign. Secret or heavily encrypted communications, or correspondence which is being sent to any minister other than the Foreign Minister, can solely be addressed to the official that needs to see it. There are no secret messages sent directly to the Emperor, so those letters should be sent to the Minister-President instead.

Why can't I secretly message the Kaiser?
Well, let's just say that, should something go wrong and the secret messages be released, we wouldn't necessarily want the Emperor's name attached to them.

What title for the Kaiser should I put in letters?
Well, the Emperor is officially addressed as His Imperial Majesty, Charles the First, By the Grace of God, Emperor of Austria, Apostolic King of Hungary, King of Bohemia, Dalmatia, Croatia, Slavonia, and Galicia, Lodomeria, and Illyria; King of Jerusalem, Archduke of Austria; Grand Duke of Tuscany and Cracow, Duke of Lorraine and of Salzburg, of Styria, of Carinthia, of Carniola and of the Bukovina; Grand Prince of Transylvania; Margrave of Moravia; Duke of Upper and Lower Silesia, of Modena, Parma, Piacenza and Guastalla, of Auschwitz and Zator, of Teschen, Friuli, Ragusa and Zara; Princely Count of Habsburg and Tyrol, of Kyburg, Gorizia and Gradisca; Prince of Trent and Brixen; Margrave of Upper and Lower Lusatia and in Istria; Count of Hohenems, Feldkirch, Bregenz, Sonnenberg; Lord of Trieste, of Cattaro, and in the Windic March. WAIT, DON'T RUN AWAY! It is perfectly within etiquette to put "His Imperial Majesty, Charles the First, Emperor of Austria, and so forth."

Koninkrijk der Nederlanden
Kingdom of the Netherlands

In the country, Six million Dutch citizens live inside the seven provinces of the European proper. Possessing great financial capabilities, the Kingdom of the Netherlands has a tendency to cut trades with nations that threaten her countries and colonies’ ambition and geopolitical interest.

Amsterdam is the crown in her financial assets in the Netherlands proper. A total of 60 million or above are under the Dutch realm. Even at the midst of colonization by British and Portuguese powers, The Dutch have been counterpart with their East Indies Company and has proven more affective rather than the British East India in terms of Export and trading. Instead of seeking new territories to conquer, the Dutch Colonial Empire seeks to find new routes, spices and trading all over the world. In the Dutch East Indies, the Indonesians are encouraged to plant rice, tobacco and more timber to export. 20% of the Colony’s earnings are sent to the Netherlands for the Dutch themselves to enjoy. However, rabid developments had forced the Kingdom to construct warships to defend her colonies as anti-colonial sentiments spread widely throughout the world. The crown is relatively hostile to communism, fascism and isolationism. They seek to open the ports of the still enclosed nations of the world. Furthermore, the Colonies in South East Asia are undergoing defensive measures to ensure that the colony will not fall in the wrong hands.

Government Info
Government Type: Constitutional Monarchy over a Unitary Parliamentary Democracy
Brief Explanation of Government: The King of the Belgians is the executive of Belgium, with some control over the military, however most monarchs usually consult the civilian government before taking any form of military actions. The Royal Parliament is bicameral, with the upper house being the Senate and the lower the Chamber of Representatives. Until recently, the King appointed his Prime Minister, who had to be a member of the ruling party in the Royal Parliament. He is now elected by the people, in a sense, as he is the head of the ruling party, and is ceremonially appointed by the King, The Primer Minister is the head of the Council of Ministers, the advisers to the King, whose influence in the Belgian government has decreased immensely over the years.

Population Info
Brief Description of your people: The Belgians are loyal, hard-working citizens. They are largely divided by the Flemish and growing Walloon minority. Relations between the two are very fragile, and they are either the best of friends or fierce rivals, but tend to unite for Belgium should she need them. Belgians are also fiercely devout Roman Catholics, something reflected by the Royal Family.
Religion: Roman Catholic
Ethnicity: White
Main/Accepted Culture(s): Flemish
Other Cultures: Walloon, Dutch, German, Congolese, Other Minor African Cultures

Economy/Infrastructure Info
Brief Description of your Economy: Before the Great War the Belgian economy was strong and prosperous, however the war has certainly taken its toll on the nation's economy. The industrial powerhouse in Wallonia has largely been reduced to rubble or damaged by the Germans beyond repair, who seized heavy machinery only for the Belgians to never see it again. Thankfully, income from the Belgian Congo is able to make up for some of the heavy loses seen during the Great War, however this is no where near as much required for reconstruction. Flanders, the agricultural half of Belgium, has been recovering quickly after some devastating loses seen at the hands of the Germans.
Main exports: Manufactured Goods (well before the Germans blew up our factories), Steel (well), Agricultural and Animal Foodstuffs, Textiles (well about that too), Firearms (well um), Rubber, Ivory, Copper, Diamond and Gold, Palm Oil, Cocoa, Cotton, Rice (Take that Asia)
Main imports: Industrial Machinery, Railroad Products, Automobiles
Brief Description of your Infrastructure: Belgian infrastructure was at its peak at the beginning of the 20 century, with railroads spanning the nation. Today, most of the railroads have been devastated by the Great War. Most of locomotives have been damaged or destroyed, along with most of the rail lines in Wallonia. They are slowly being rebuilt with help from the government, who is looking abroad for investments to restore Belgian industry and infrastructure. Railroads span the Belgian Congo and were vastly unaffected during the Great War. Canals also snake through Belgium proper.

Diplomacy Info
Brief description of your Foreign Policy: Belgium has maintained a strict policy of neutrality since 1839 and the Treaty of London. However, since the Great War came to an end the government has been reconsidering this stance.
