Physical Environment

Main article: Physical Environment: North Torbia

North Torbia is a small country located in an archipelago in the western Pacific Ocean. It borders its primary regional opponent, namely South Torbia, which is the only country with land access to the nation. The country’s terrain varies from high, forested, rugged mountains to flat lowland plains used for agricultural pursuits; the former create an obstacle for regional communication and make transport difficult. Both vegetation and climate are tropical in nature. Troops must deal with extreme temperatures and humidity throughout the lowlands, and high altitudes in the mountains. Frequent rains will hamper operations and maneuverability, as will seasonal cloud cover. Multiple natural hazards exist, such as typhoons and landslides, that can complicate missions.

Time

Main article: Time: North Torbia

Time in North Torbia is treated significantly differently than other countries.  Simply put, time in North Torbia is rigid and strict; much like the leadership of the country.  One does not arrive late for anything, whether that be a business meeting or catching a bus.  The shame and repercussions of tardiness are severe.

North Torbia currently sits within its own Time Zone after it decided to return to its historical zone of GMT + 8.5 to commemorate the anniversary of their ‘liberation’.  South Torbia currently sits at GMT +9.0.
