Geography of Bredford[]
The nation of Bredford is made up from three isles.
The Bredford isle, which is the main isle and contains the capital and all the important cities. The Bredford isle is also very resourceful, as its big eastern part is made of rich soil, the north contains big amounts of Coal and Iron, and the Western sea include many oil reserves. There is only one mountain range on the Bredford isle, the Southport mountain range. Most of the big cities and the population are massed on the industrialized western shore (Bansbury, Jannisbury, Bredford and their suburbs), and the eastern shore contains Port Hollan and Oaktown. The south isn't big, and contains the lone city of Southport. Most of the isle is big flat grasslands, expect from the hilly south side and its small mountain range.
The Allertown isle, which is a colony discovered by Bredford in 856. It contains one town, which is also the capital of the isle, Allertown, which is the living place of about 3.5 million people. The people that live here are more like puppet to Bredford, as the local population goes undisturbed and there is no tax on the isle. The only viewable present of Bredford in the isle is the major tourism area on the beautiful western-south coast. Most of the people here work in farming on the eastern side (mainly Bananas and Rubber for export), and at the big tourism center. The westren-north side of the isle is filled with Gas fields, but its not populated at all. Allertown has major mountain dividing the isle in twice in the center, the north area is hilly, but the south is completely flat.
And the last, the Pernu isle, which is completely abandoned isle and only occasionaly used by the Bredford military for nuclear tests. The entire isle is a nuclear wasteland.
Bredford Armed Forces[]
Bredfordian Army[]
The Bredfordian Army's doctrine is one of Homeland Defence. The Army is rarely deployed outside of Bredford itself, expect for the Overseas Unit and the Foreign Legion. The special forces units include the SMAG (Special Marine Assault Group), the SDU (Special Divers Unit), the OCU (Overseas Commando Unit), the SAF (Special Airborne Force) and the SSU (Specialized Sabotage Unit). The Army is divided to three commands, the Home Command (HOMCOM), the International Command (INTCOM), the Allied Command (ALLCOM), the Special Command (SPECOM) and the Strategic Command (STRATCOM).

Each division or special force is commanded by Major General (expect the foreign legion who is commanded by Lieutenant General), each command by a General and the entire Army by a Field Marshal.

The Navy has a forward defence doctrine, and while similar to the Homeland Defence doctrine held by the Airforce and Army, it is very different, as it plays more expenditory role. Recognizing the fact that threats to Bredford can be stopped before they arrive, cooperating with other Novan naval forces, the navy's doctrine implies that threats have to be eliminated before they reach the homeland. It also implies that the navy should strike back, if possible, at the agressor, after the victory. Out of that, the navy's motto is "First to Defence". The navy's order of battle is more unique, comparing to the airforce and the army. It has two UwA (Underwater Attack) and one UwM (Underwater Missile) groups, which are the small expenditory force. There are two naval task forces, one being the large one, committed when on massive defensive war, to stop the enemy abroad, and the small one, committed in large expenditory wars. They are often nicknamed "Big Gun" and "Little Gun". As a joke, sometimes they are named "Great Gun" and "Big Gun". The main peacetime defensive and patrol force is the GPG (General Patrol Group). It basically performs the entire local defence and patrol duties of the navy. The three submarines groups are commanded by a Vice Admiral, and Naval Force Two is commanded by an Admiral. The General Patrol Group and Naval Task Force 1 are commanded by Grand Admirals. The entire navy is commanded by the Sea Marshall.

The Orbital Command is the most expenditory branch of the Armed Forces, due to its nature. The Orbital Command main roles is to assist other branches, by gathering intelligence and handling satellite communications and services (GPS, missile tracking). It does have a minor nuclear ability, however it can only use it during war and only by an order from the War Council. Its supreme commander is the Space Marshall, which is traditionally given to top military scientists or either to unwilling to retire top Airforce generals (who won't be accepted to the Sky Marshall role).
