Of all countries, kingdoms, and civilizations in the world, the
frozen nation of Thembria is one of the most notable and also one
of the most peculiar. Throughout its long history, Thembria has
been a major influence in world events and politics, however backwards
many of its own political and social systems are. Having once commanded
a measure of respect during the Great War, Thembria now draws nothing
but snide comments from the rest of the world for its repressive
government and inept foreign relations.
To its credit, Thembria does have a strong military force. One of the
largest operational postwar armies in the world, the Glorious People's
Army and Air Force serve to protect the "Motherland" and
enforce Thembrian ventures abroad. What the Thembrian military lacks
in refined tactics and sophisticated equipment it makes up for in
brute strength and resilience.
Once a wartime ally of Usland — now averse to the "capitalist
swine" from Cape Suzette — Thembria is a key player in the
delicate balance of international politics.
