The Prompt:
The micro-nation of Minnesota has been ravaged by war since the fall of a despot, and several rebel groups have attempted to rise to power. The movements were all contained by Minnesotan borders until a few days ago, after a rebel anti-government force originating from Minnesota raided a small town in neighboring Nationalist Gold Union, killing 35. The Nationalist Gold Union's government responded with a chemical weapon strike to the center of one of the rebel-held Minnesotan cities. The strike killed several rebel leaders as well as almost 100 fighters, however almost 3,000 civilians were became victims of collateral damage. This attack led to outrage in Noxtrem, whose government will not stand for this useless murder. Diplomacy has been completely useless, with the Nationalist Gold Union's government denying the attack altogether, regardless of the blatant evidence. Relations have been heating up, and both nations appear to be on the brink of war.
The Map
Alrighty folks here we go! First things first, I'll need each of you who wishes to participate to define the following:
System of Government (I.E. Constitutional Monarchy, Democratic Republic, Federation, etc)
Name and Title of Leader
Population (use population of countries in which you occupy on the map as reference)
Military Manpower (use GDP of countries in which you occupy on the map as reference)
Military Budget
GDP (use GDP of countries in which you occupy on the map as reference)
Allied Superpower (pay attention to you location as well as the ally count of both superpowers, I'd like to keep this both reasonable and balanced. If it's completely skewed, I'll be forced to select sides for you.)

Rules
You ARE allowed to be nonaligned, however I would prefer to keep the number of unaligned nations to a minimum.
The superpowers shall not negotiate peace, let's make this a fun one!
No godmodding, of course.
Remember, this is 1980's Technology, keep to the early/mid 1980's.
