About: The Armed Republic of Creepmiester is currently a fluctuating nation, just declaring it's independance from the USA. It consists of a large group of islands creating an ovalish ring, with the main island taking up just over a quarter of land mass. The temperate climate allows for various agricultural products on the smaller, more hospitable islands, and the rocky islands provide various metals and gems. The rivers, lakes and coastline all provide ample fishing opportunities as well. Although not the premier in the world for scenery, the large array of freedoms combined with a fair climate and variety of activities creates a fair tourism market for the small nation.

Geography: The nation of Creepmiester consists of six distinct islands as well as scatterings of rocky islets. The main island is almost all rocky terrain covered with sand and a small level of foilage that can exist. This is where the capital city of Grulb resides along most of the nations industrial holdings. The coast line of the main island as well as the smaller ones are scattered with resorts and fishing settlements. The inland occupied by everything from city-sized resorts to livestock to farmland and orchards.

Natural Resources: various precious/semi-precious gems, silver, gold, copper, sea foods(Fish, Lobster, Crab)

Government: The current government is in somewhat of a turmoil as nothing is currently set into stone and it's nearly impossible to seperate the government from the military. The nation is controlled by a close-knit group, called GADAC, with their leader the current acting President. They control the most everything that goes on in the nation, aside from the peoples personal lives. Important business, large industries, education all controlled by the government. Non-contributing members of society are giving a choice to serve in the military or are deported. Employment or school is not an option giving but is something enforced.

All visitors as well as any goods are throughly searched, and if something is amiss or the paperwork doesn't check out, all peoples well be sent back out on the next plane or put in custody, and all goods will be confiscated or destroyed. Ships coming into Creepmiester are boarded and searched as they come out of international water. Any resistance to this well be asked to turn back if they don't comply force will be used without further warning(Non-lethal unless men are indangered).

Airports: Creepmiester International Airport(CMI) - Grulb

Heliports: 3(On the second, third and fourth largest islands)

Military: Currently, the military consists mostly of the armed members of the GADAC group, although it's slowly growing as training programs are completed and a solid structure is in place. The military is in control of the education in Creepmiester as well as the police force. At the age of sixteen everyone is enrolled in a mandatory six year term that finishes up schooling, gives job training and includes a two year active service. At this time the military's only purpose is to keep order and to defend the nation.

Reserves: 900,000(5.6% Pop.)**
Police Force: 450,000(3.75% Pop.)

Standard Issue(Active/Reserve/Police): Formal Dress, Training/Casual Fatigues, Combat Gear, Rifle: M16A2 w/Grenade Launcher, Sidearm: Desert Eagle Mark XIX - Calico M960(Special Use)

Transport: The current standard vehicle for Creepmiester's military is the Hummer. Making use of varying types of this multi-purpose machine, they are able to traverse most anywhere on any of the islands. Inter-island travel is ussually done by commercial grade helicopters and boats.

National Defense: Currently national defense is slim, relying mostly on an extensive anti-missile/anti-air defence system and a large number of trained and ready men if enemy troups land. A nearly non-existant marine division consists of two Los Angeles class submarines, ten Spruance class destroyers and an array of modified commercial watercraft. The military's air division, just barely off the ground itself, consists of a few hundred F14 Tom Cats and about the same in AH-64 Apache Helicopters.

Oh wow, thanks. People really are quick around here. Figured since it 1am here wouldn't get much response. Oh well. Hope everything doesn't look too bad. Still need to section things out alittle more for readability and probably have all sorts of spelling/grammar problems(I'm picky abit) but should work for now.

Just continue waiting around and watching some things, make sure I have alittle more stable stats as they seem to change alot, but maybe in a week or so I'll be ready to really get involved in something.

[ooc]Updated to add alittle more information. Definately could still be cleaned up some.

And this post is just mostly so I can keep track of what I'm doing, and perhaps to bump it to get some feedback.


Travel added. Government updated.

Large update to military numbers to compensate for mandatory service. Just to clarify things, the police force is just that. Although it's considered a section of the military, it won't be going any where, and is the standard policing force for the islands, including any specialties involving crime prevention/investigation and such.

Active duty ... 5% is large. Almost all of it though, 4% or so are just out of training and serving part of their mandatory service. It would take quite a bit of trouble to pull the majority of this force from the islands, considering it's the nations main defense. These numbers are split among all three branches of the military and include special forces and support roles.

Reserves ... Again, huge amount of the population at 10%. Most of this is young men and women finishing their schooling and starting on their job and military train. The 8% of the reserves are nearly as mobolized as the active duty, but only used in state emergencies. Doing otherwise could have troublesome effects on future job markets. Only 2% are true reserves, ussually taking about anywhere from a week to a month to gather due to the nations fairly small size.

Common Military Use
The ARoC prefers to stay out of other's business when ever possible, but if necessary to send troops abroad, the nation well try to keep the numbers low. When protecting the islands no cost is spared, although if possible, the young reserves are kepted out of harms way as it wouldn't do good to have the next wave of work force decimated.

Really hoping not everyone sees this as ridiculous and unrealistic as it'll take some revamping of the whole system. Even with large numbers my nations ability to attack anything well be near non-existant, and even taking aside the compulsory servicees most of the Military is still ground troops and in support roles due to a lack of ships, planes and what not. Again, any feedback is appreciated.
