Sure I hate myself for it, but fuck it, we invited this. It's sad, but at some point you just stop caring. People can scream and cry but nothing will ever get done about it. When was it last that a shooting incident like this (or any other) actually made people legitimately search for answers or try a new approach? None that I can think of, It's been the same people, shouting the same expletives with the same people dying.
I hear they have good internet over in Scandinavia.

The main force consists of few hundred thousand conscripts with modest equipment and training but well trained commanders.
The most ambitious and best scoring conscripts would then be offered membership of an elite military force of about 50.000 soldiers.
It would be similar to the Saddam-era Iraqi army.
Y/N?

Population of Costa Mejis ~42 million
Total military personal: 378,000 (.9% of population)
- Active: 115,290
- Reserve: 262,710
- Army total: 75,600 (20% of total military)
- Active duty: 30,240 (60% of total Army)
- Reserve: 45,360 (40% of total Army)
Notes: Standing army contains mechanized infantry, airborne, armor, artillery, and army aviation, as well as support personal. Used for offensive actions against insurgents or other nations, if applicable.
- Air Force total: 26,460 (7% of military total)
- Active duty: 18,522 (70% of total Army)
- Reserve: 7,938 (30% of total Army)
Notes: Includes combat, training and transport squadrons, as well as security personal and personal assigned to EW radar posts. There is very little in reserve Air Force presence.
- Navy total: 56,700 (15% of military total)
- Active duty: 22,680 (40% of total Army)
- Reserve: 34,020 (60% of total Army)
Notes: Includes naval infantry, sailors, and rotary naval aviation. In addition the Navy is used as a coast guard force, generally utilizing rotating reserve units, as the active duty Navy's priority is the defense of the Straights of Vi Castis
- Peoples Armed Militia total: 219,240 (58% of military total)
- Active duty: 43.848 (20% of total Army)
- Reserve: 175,392 (80% of total Army)
Notes: Quality of the Militia varies from unit to unit but is generally low, with many soldiers being "career conscripts". Often time, people with no other skills find a home in the militia, as well as criminals and other thugs who just like the power that comes with the uniform. Not as well equipped or trained as the regular army. Generally used for internal security duties. Usually, career non-coms and officers are assigned to militia units to maintain order.
This gives me a military about half the size of Columbia, with about 4 million less population. My military is larger than, say, Spain, a nation with which I have a similar population and landmass, however, Spain doesn't have a reason to maintain a large military, so using it as a base was flawed.
Anyways, thoughts on this?

Is there really a need for NSwikis now that there are built in fact books?

IIWiki. It's got better templates and generally a more Wikipedia-style setup than NSwiki, and it's more geared towards IC stuff on II as opposed to NSwiki which covers OOC aspects as well.
I've got an IIwiki page for my non-TF main, here.
