Kingdom of Hordaland:


 * Government: A Constitutional Mornachy ruled by Janus Janssen
 * Military: While Oslofjord is waiting to invade us, I shall MILITARIZE. Biggest problem we need MANPOWER.
 * Land:
 * 50,257 active land infantry
 * about 10k reserve infantry.
 * 45 artillery available (15 are mobile artillery)
 * 156 armored vehicle
 * 14 M113F4 Armoured Personnel Carriers
 * 6 Leopard 2A4 left from pre-Carbon Winter times.
 * 1 NASAMS 2 for air defense.
 * Navy: Since the Haakonsvern harbor at Bergen was the main navy harbor of Norway (or at least that's what wikipedia says), we found a number of battleships still in quite good condition
 * 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 Norskarbeiderparti.

 * 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.
 * Infrastructure/Public Services: boring stuff
 * Demographics: Mostly Norwegian, although there are some (yet very few) Polish, Pakistani, Swedish, and Lithuanian minorities.
 * Development/Standards of Living: some more random stuff
 * Population: The population stood at 1,674,883 people before the invasions of Vestfold, Østfold, and Buskerud, but now stands at 2,472,525 people (after the invasions).


 * Research and Development:
 * Artificial Photosynthesis: One out of three and a half turns complete.


 * Military:
 * Wars and Conflicts:
 * Conquer of Oslofjord: The Norwegian minors of Vestfold, Østfold, and Buskerud have been sent a declaration of war citing 'reconquest' and 'border friction' as the two casus belli. 20,000 soldiers are sent into each minor, with Vestfold and Østfold quickly falling into our hands due to their small population and size. Buskerud is a tiny bit more of a problem due to them being larger in area than both of the former combined, and thus 35,000 are sent instead. However, this does not mean they are weaker than us in any way, and are quickly occupied. All three are annexed completely. Also, with the retaking of the Oslofjord, the nation is renamed to the Kingdom of Oslofjord.


 * Royal Forsvaret: After the Norwegian collapse, most military bases (and some equipment) were stationed around the Oslofjord area, and with the retaking of surrounding minors, Akershus/Oslofjord is now easily the dominant Norwegian minor.
 * Royal Hær:  Oslofjord's Royal Hær consists of:
 * 60,000 active, frontline personnel
 * 35,250 reserve personnel
 * 47 combat tanks
 * 850 armored fighting vehicles
 * 35 self-propelled artillery
 * 125 towed-artillery
 * 2 multiple-launch rocket systems


 * Royal Marinen: The Oslofjordan navy consists of:
 * 15,000 active, frontline personnel
 * 5,750 reserve personnel
 * 3 frigates
 * 1 destroyer
 * 2 corvettes
 * 4 submarines
 * 9 coastal defense craft
 * 3 ships suitable for mine warfare


 * Royal Luftstyrke: The Luftstyrke, or air force, consists of:
 * 35 fighter aircraft
 * 40 attack aircraft
 * 25 transport aicraft
 * 15 trainer aircraft
 * 45 helicopters
 * 1 attack helicopter


 * Diplomacy:
 * Germany: We request a research union, and promise that the Norwegian government, once restored, will transition into a constitutional monarchy that will be fair and democratic towards its people.
 * Etelä-Suomi: Research union.
 * Stockholm: Research union and alliance.
