Unlike the Alternate Nations threads for the World, North America, and Europe, in this thread, we will develop one country at a time, in a 'CIA World Factbook' style.

We will place all of this on a wikia.

The first nation we will create, will be the nation who creates the factbook. For example if we made a Grand Ottoman Empire, the Factbook would be the TIO (Turkish Intelligence Agency) World Factbook, and the introduction and Current Issues about, say, Greece and Persia, would be biased.

We will figure out, for each nation:
- Name
- Map
- Introduction (short summary of history, biased)
- Government
--- structure
--- Head of State and Head of Government
--- Top Political Parties
- Flag
- Capital
- Population
- Demography
--- Ethnic groups
--- Languages
--- Religion
--- Age and gender demographics
--- Literacy and
- Economy
--- GDP
--- Resources
- Military
--- size
--- branches
- Geography (short summary)
- Internet country code
- Current Issues (only the ones that apply to the country will be included)
--- Terrorism (biased)
--- Disputes (biased)
--- Weapons of Mass Destruction (biased)
--- Illegal activities (biased)
------ Drugs (biased)
------ Slavery (biased)


For each thing, someone will suggest something, people can either post to support it, or to suggest something else. The one with the most support will be chosen and we will move onto the next thing

NOTE: The first set of suggestions will be the name and a description of the territories the nation has, and the second set of suggestions will be the exact borders on a map. After that we just go down the list.

EDIT: Only the name-and-description-of-territories, and the exact-borders-map, will definitely be voted on. The others, we will probably just discuss, suggest, and put those together. If there is a lot of controversy though then there will be votes.




Anyway, I will suggest:
The United Northern Federation, which consists of the British Isles, Northern France, Northern Germany, the Baltic states, all of Scandinavia, the Kola Peninsula, Greenland, Iceland, the icy northern islands of Canada, and territory around Hudson Bay.
