Military
The Framland Defense Force is unusual in the region in that it is all volunteer and does not rely on conscription. It is also the smallest force in the region by a considerable margin. Technically, there is a single Defense Force with three branches of service; however, in effect it comprises of three separate services each with its own HQ structure, training organizations and uniform. The organization of each of the services is extremely conventional and the structure reflects that of a much larger force. There is a reserve structure underpinning the Army and the Navy, but no reserve force for the Air Force. The Coast Guard is a separate organization from the Defense Forces, although it is linked to them. Notwithstanding their small size, the forces in general, and the Army in particular, have built up considerable operational expertise through deployments on United Nations (UN) and associated missions. Framish troops are very highly regarded by the UN and all other forces that they have served alongside and the forces have a tradition of professionalism and excellence that belies their limited capabilities. The Framish government see the Defense Forces as a useful diplomatic tool in building stability throughout the world.
Economic
The economy of Framland has a developed diverse economy, aided by timber, hydropower and iron ore. These constitute the resource base of an economy oriented toward foreign trade. The main industries include motor vehicles, telecommunications (35% owned by Framish government), pharmaceuticals, industrial machines, precision equipment, chemical goods, home goods and appliances, forestry, iron and steel.
Framland is not an overly prosperous country, but it manages it national budget closely and sets clear priorities. The government is fiscally responsible and rarely indulges in deficit spending. Based on this, they are consistently awarded an A credit rating which is based not only on its actual debts but is also reflective of the country’s attitude towards money management. They have a reasonably stable economy with an educated population. They are energy dependent, although they have hydroelectric power, they must import from Torrike. Electricity, water, and wood materials are inexpensive and plentiful. They also have an abundance of iron, copper, aluminum ore with some gold and silver deposits.
Social
Framland is a nation with a relatively small population of about 3.1 million hindered by a low birth‐rate. Framland is an ethnically homogeneous nation, but welcome legal immigrants and asylum seekers to their country. However, the State mandates “nationalizing” the newly arrived through citizenship and language classes. In order to become a citizen, one must attend classes and pass a written exam. These classes reference the Catholic religion, but also emphasize the tolerant nature of Framish culture. Classes primarily focus on the history, government systems, customs, and culture of Framland.
There is little internal dissent and Framish people consider themselves to be happy and generally satisfied. Despite the significant Catholic influence, same sex relationships are allowed and exist openly. Marriage is simply defined as the joining of two lives. Out‐of‐wedlock birth‐rates are rising (although the overall birth‐rate is dropping).
Information
The Framish information sector is modern and well‐funded. Framish people avidly read newspapers and there are a large number of them throughout the country as dailies and weeklies. Magazines are also popular although both are slowly losing ground to internet‐based news content. Television is primarily satellite based except in the cities. International channels are readily available. American sitcoms from the 1970s are particularly popular. FM radio is popular and there are numerous stations, but no dominant players. Free speech is not only tolerated but encouraged. However, it is generally moderate in tone. he Press Freedom Index rates Framland as 11 of 178 countries.
Infrastructure
Framland enjoys a well‐developed and modern infrastructure, which is adequately funded and maintained in good working order. The transportation system is good and serves the whole country; only in the extreme north does it become somewhat sparse. In addition, the country is well served by an integrated road and rail system. The major road north runs very close to the border with Torrike and Framland has an agreement with Torrike that allows their vehicles free use of this system (and easy cross border travel), with an annual “fee” paid by the Framland Treasury to Torrike.
Framland has an extensive network of facilities covering the whole spectrum of civil and military activities. The development and maintenance of Infrastructure in Framland is carefully controlled at Governmental level and is driven to satisfy support to the economy.
Physical Environment
Framland extends from the midway Baltic Sea to north of the Arctic Circle. The country has an area of 99,500 km2, is 400 km long, bordering Torrike to the south and west, Bothnia to the north, and the Gulf of Bothnia to the east. Despite its northerly location, the climate is fairly mild and temperate, due to the warm Atlantic Gulf Stream. Annual precipitation varies from 500mm in the country’s western portions to 300mm in the eastern portions. The growing season lasts 140 days and 100 days in the north. Mean temperatures range from 14/17° in July to between +1/ –14°C in January–February. Most of Framland has a relatively even topography and is less than 300m above sea level with the highest ground only reaching 700m in altitude. The country’s forest soils chiefly consist of moraines which were deposited when the inland ice cap melted 10,000 years ago. Most Framish forests are part of the Boreal coniferous belt. Due to the low buffering capacity of Framish forest soils, a high level of air pollution—mainly originating abroad—has resulted in widespread soil acidification. Leaching of mineral nutrients has thus reduced their level by half in recent decades. Critical loads are being exceeded, both in terms of sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide deposits. Air pollution poses a serious threat to the forest ecosystem and to the growth of forests.
