i got this idea from Sileetris, anywho, i am no good at writing factbooks and so i'll answer questions from the general NS public, i'll try to answer as best i can, and i'll edit this post like Sileetris, enjoy

Q: What would you classify Kaduna's Tech Level as?

A: Future Tech

Q: What form of government does Kaduna have?

the Kaduna have a twisted form of Grand Duchy, they have the Grand Duke at the head, but he is nothing more than a figure-head, designed to appease the land, below the Duke is the Parliment which consists of 10,000 politicians, each one has a equal portion of the vote, meaning that decisions take a long time to complete.

Q: How large/strong is Kaduna's military? How is it branched?

A: There are 960,000 soldiers overall, this makes up 1% of my nations population, 96,000 are command and another 384,000 are logistics, leaving 480,000 regular soldiers, half of them are in the Space Corps, and 60,000 make up the small Navy and the last 180,000 a part of the Warrior Marines.

Q: What is the ethnicity/overall appearance of the typical Kaduna Citizen?

A: Scientists discovered that the Kadun are distant relations of the Wolf, though we have lost a lot from these vicious creatures, the average citizen appears between 7-9 ft tall, the nose is thick and stubby, and the eyebrows are thick, the canines tend to be larger and hair seems to grow longer and more quickly than that of a human.

Q: What would you say your economy "type" would be? Capitalism? Communism? Other?

A: Though we don't dissallow the use of private industries it is also not encouraged, which is why we have only a small Private industry, i believe the current leader of aformentioned Private sector is that of the Book Publishing Industry, so i would say that we fall in to the category of other.

Q: How Do you usually handle first Contact Situations?

A: It depends, if it is with a Deep Space Recon ship then a transmission is sent all the way back to Parlimentary HQ where they spend a long time discussing the next course of action, if it happens to be a discovery of either the Flagship Kendwina or a voyage to the Homeworld then the Parliment is bypassed and an alliance will attempt to be negotiated.

Q: Does Kaduna have a national dish?

A: Not exactly, the people are far too different to establish a dish that we all like, and so food is usually prepared depending on the person eating it, our Duke for example is rather partial to a meal called pasta, wheras our admiral will eat nothing unless it contains meat, and he has a figure to show for it.

Q: What is a Kandena

A: The Kandena is a beast linked loosely to the Wolf we evolved from, it amazed scientists when they discovered that we evolved into us these great thinking devices and yet the Kandena remains as an unevolved beast, the continued research of the Kandena made it increddibly popular as a house trained animal, in some rare cases it has been known to fulfill it's purpose as a guard animal, a role it excels in.

Q: What is your general stance toward outsiders/foreigners?

A: There is not much to see within the lands of Kaduna, infact it can be seen as rather the Distopia, so any tourists come at their own risk, we feel as though we should not ban foreigners but instead not encourage tourism, so in all we are ok with foreigner's.

Q: How long has Kaduna been around?

A: the modern Kaduna species has existed for little more than 12,000 years, the nation has existed in freedom for less than 2,000

Q: What is the typical lifespan of the average Kadunan?

A: a Kadunese man will usually reach the age of 100, for Women this number tends to be around 90 but in some cases Kadunese have lived for much longer
