The rich, fertile lands in Bohemia, Hungary, and Slovenia make agriculture the primary industry there, and accounts for much of Austria's exports to the world. However, lands in Austria proper and the rugged Balkan coast have specialized in manufacturing and trade, respectively, giving Austria a good standing among the industrialized powers.
Main exports: Wheat, Machinery, Manufactured goods.
Main imports: Metals, Coal, Raw Material
Brief Description of your Infrastructure: The Austrian railroads are growing, trying to catch up to the more industrialized powers. Roads are generally kept in functioning condition, paved or cobbled, though many dirt roads exist in the corners of the Empire.

Military Info
Army:
The Austrian Army
180,000 troops, decent quality of weapons, good quality of clothes, below average in training.
The Emperor's Guard
300 troops, excellent quality of weapons, excellent clothes, though mostly ceremonial, above average in training.
The Colonial Militia
18,000 troops, below average quality of weapons, poor clothing, little training
Navy:
The Austrian Navy
11 dreadnoughts, 4 pre-dreadnoughts, 7 protected cruisers, 10 light cruisers, 17 destroyers, 18 submarines, most in decent condition due to being built within the past 15 years. Naval training, however, has not been a focus of the not-that-coastal Empire. Imperial Naval officers have been sent to Germany to study naval theory and tactics, but enlisted sailors are held to loose standards.
The Austrian Maritime Service
12,000 troops, average quality of weapons, average clothing, exceptional training
Austrian Cutter Service
2 light cruisers, 3 destroyers, 20 merchant cutters in average condition, below average training. The Cutter Service enforces Austrian maritime and customary law.

Airman training is still somewhat experimental and rudimentary. The rapid expansion of the Air Corps late in the war has led to an inexperienced leadership, somewhat unwilling to experiment.

Diplomacy Info
Brief description of your Foreign Policy: Austria used to make up one of the webs of alliances, the Central Powers. However, after the end of the war and the ascension of Emperor Karl, Austrian foreign policy has shifted to isolationism. Austria now solely maintains an alliance with Germany, most likely to secure external support for putting down internal rebellions. But this alliance stands in the face of rising calls in Germany to annex Austria, even with force, if necessary. The nation may soon ally with others to protect its land from which it has sacrificed so much.
Protectorates/Dominions/Satellites: None
Alliance/Alignments: Germany
Other aspects: Karl is looking to reconcile with some of his former enemies in Eastern Europe. He and the public, though, still hold disdain for the French and British

Other Info
Goals: Prevent the total collapse of the Empire (Partial collapse, if necessary), rebuild armed forces, demobilize troops, focus on industry and social reform.
History: After the Hungarian Revolution of 1848, the Hungarian Diet was suspended and the Hungarian people levied taxes against in order to repay the cost of the revolution. Hungarian politicians were, through electoral manipulation, slowly replaced with Austrian or Czech statesmen. Hungary as an entity was divided into various Duchies, headed by the Hapsburg Royalty. In 1866, during a financial recession, Austria ceded to the pressure of Italy and sold some of its Italian lands to Italy. During the Congress of Berlin, Austria attempted to gain control of Bosnia to no avail. Because of these factors, Austria was no longer the dominant force in Germany. In 1884, the Hungarians launched another revolution, this time less successful and snuffed out early on. Emperor Franz Josef, however, agreed to abolish the duchies, reassemble the Kingdom of Hungary, and allow elections to a regional council, though the council at first had little ability to legislate effectively. Through the 1890's and 1900's, Austria aligned itself with the Central Powers, including its old nemesis, the Ottoman Empire. During the Great War, Austria was hit the hardest of the Central Powers, with 80% of her troops becoming casualties. This sacrifice led to victory, which has kept the nation bound together loosely by patriotic fervor.

Brief description of your Foreign Policy: Tibet is an isolationist due to its landlocked geography and the fear of being invaded by various larger nations around Tibet. However, with the fall of China to a weaker state, Tibet currently is looking for strong ally, possibly a foreign power, to aid Tibet. The people generally want aid from the Communists, while the theocracy and the elites prefer the Anti-Communists.

Since China was busy with its civil war, they were forced to accepted this condition as they had no manpower or resources to focused on Tibet.

After the independence, and with the aid of foreign powers, although small, generally from British and Russians to built infrastructure and military, but before it's complete the aid was ended as Great War took its toll on both of them, halting the progress. After the end of Great War and Chinese Civil War, and with the Russian Civil War, the people of Tibet began to embraced the idea of Communism, and saw the current Tibet as old and traditional and began preparation for revolution, while the elites and Dalai Lama desperately attempted to halt Communism and to embraced the anti-communism.

The Trans-Ural Offensive was the make-or-break sort of battle, wasn't it? I imagine the Civil War hasn't long to go.

Galter Gulcher reserved, but if he doesn't take them, and Svet doesn't (though I'm hoping he does, for continuity) then yes.

I'm thinking a decent way to go might be a well-plotted out white victory and then opening it up, considering that people who were in it for the Civil War might not be in it for rebuilding Russia, and vice versa.

I was originally thinking of going semi-fascist.

Then, it's Moldavia available?

Hmm, that would work. Russia would need something more politically robust than a proper democracy after the war.
