Nation Name: The Empire of New Armenica
Inhabitants: Humans (63%), Dwarves (34%), Elves (3%)
Population: 712,000
Sigul: Red and blue cross w/ 5 white stars, on a white field
History:
New Armenica is all that remains of a once glorious and powerful nation, whose name has been forgotten. The great nation had aero-planes, great iron ships, and weapons that spat death at an amazing rate. Then the great nation collapsed. Strife and Pestilence ruled the mountains that the great nation called home.
A group of former soldiers banded together, and founded New Armenica, a haven from the war outside its walls. New Armenica became a beacon of hope, and all flocked to its saftey. The war ended, although the land was destroyed. All traces of the great nation were destroyed. New Armenica's most advanced weapon was the spear.
Time passed, and New Armenica expanded, growing, thriving, until it was a city no longer, but its own nation. Technology pushed on ahead, and discoveries were made of Gunpowder, and Flight. New Armenica was once again great, although nowhere near as great as it once was.
Capital: Armen, a massive fortress on top of a mountain peak. Home to 200,000 people, Armen is the greatest city in New Armenica.

The Army of the Empire
Ground Forces
Regular Infantry: The Regular Infantry is the mainstay of the Empire. Armed with the fearsome K19 Bolt-Action Rifle, the Infantry have defeated their enemies in countless battles. The Regular Infantry are armored in Scale Mail, armor made out of scale shaped, overlapping plates, meant to turn arrows and crosbow bolts. In addition to the K19, all Infantry are trained in saber combat, should an enemy come within firing range.
Machine Gun Infantry: The MG Infantry are the elites of the army. Weilding the brand-new K32 Machine Gun, they are able to cut down swarths of enemies from a safe position. MG Infantry are armored in leather, to cut down on weight and allow them to change positions as rapidly as possible.
R12 Tanks: Tanks are extremely experimental, with only 20 currently in service. Although they are almost impervious to damage except by magic, the mountainous terrain of New Armenica makes it difficult to deploy and navigate the tanks.
Battle Mages: 90% of all magic users in the Empire are drafted into the military. Battle Mages weild their fearsome abilities on the battlefield, augumenting the already impressive abilities of the Infantry
Air Force
Aero-planes: Aero-planes are new to the Air Force. They are powered by magic, and can be used to scout enemy territory from a safe altitude. A tail gunner can defend against other airborne threats, such as Zepplins, but are unable to fire upon the ground.
Zepplins: The Zepplin is used heavily in the Air Force. Zepplins are used to redeploy troops, scout enemy fortifications, and can be used for aerial combat if nessecary. Zepplins have recently been modified to allow Zepplins to bomb enemy bases.
