Rötterheim

Rötterheim, as a unified nation, is quite new, especially when compared with the great empires and federations of the world. As a unified nation, Rötterheim's history stretches just over fifty years.

This is not to say that there is little history in Rötterheim. Historically, the territory that makes up Rötterheim was controlled by half a dozen duchies, each vying for supremacy over one another. After a short but bloody war, Rötterheim emerged victorious.

Currently, the Grand Duchy is ruled by Grand Duke Karl-Gerhardt. Aging, and obsessed with notions of chivalry and the ideals of ages past, the Grand Duke has done little to help with progress in Rötterheim.

Industry in Rötterheim consists chiefly of agriculture and mining operations. Despite this, the population has remained relatively small.

The military is no unstoppable juggernaut. An officer corps made up of men able to buy their commission has severely crippled the army. The army itself consists of 18 infantry regiments, 5 cavalry regiments and an artillery corps. Rötterheim's navy is also severly lacking. Whilst there are no shortage of transport ships or destroyers, there are no heavy cruisers in the navy.

With new conflicts on the rise, Rötterheim must learn to adapt to this new world, or decay, and eventually be forgotten.
