Kingdom of Akershus:
 * Backstory:
 * Government: Ever since the collapse of the Scandinavian nations, the government of Akershus has been an absolute monarchy under the Brekke dynasty, its first ruler being Håvard.
 * Military: After the formation of the Akershusi military, King Håvard I introduced a sort of Council of Generals, consisting of the five best military generals in the nation, bringing them together to decide upon the military when Håvard couldn't show up. These five generals include Otto Rendahl, Bjørn Svendsen, Mathias Belgum, Christer Rasch, and Rebekka Laake.
 * Laws:
 * Abortion: Abortion was made strictly illegal by Brekke, and will only be legal in cases of rape. If the parent does not want your child or does not have the ability to care for the child, they would put it up for adoption. To compensate for this, adoption agencies are greatly improved for the children that are living there, and any adoption agencies not taking proper care of the children situated in the homes will have their owners arrested and sentenced to five years in prison under charges of child neglect
 * Unemployment: A program similar to Nazi Germany's Reichsarbeitsdienst was set up in order to deal with unemployment, named the.


 * Analytics:
 * Economy: Brekke introduced many policies in order to improve the economy of Akershus after the Carbon Winter. The first policy is to increase interest rates through the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve's rate is the rate at which banks borrow money from the government, but, in order to make money, they must lend it at higher rates. So, when the Federal Reserve increases its interest rate, banks have no choice but to increase their rates as well. When banks increase their rates, less people want to borrow money because it costs more to do so if that money accrues interest. So, spending drops, prices drop and inflation slows. The second method is to increase reserve requirements on the amount of money banks are legally required to keep on hand to cover withdraws. The more money banks are required to hold back, the less they have to lend to consumers. If they have less to lend, consumers will borrow less, which will decrease spending. The third method is to directly or indirectly reduce the money supply by enacting policies that encourage reduction of the money supply. Two examples of this include calling in debts that are owed to the government and increasing the interest paid on bonds so that more investors will buy them. The latter policy raises the exchange rate of the currency due to higher demand and, in turn, increases imports and decreases exports. Both of these policies will reduce the amount of money in circulation because the money will be going from banks, companies and investors pockets and into the government’s pocket where they can control what happens to it.
