Colorsia is a small island located near the arctic circle. It is a cold island, with a tundra climate. The island is significant due to the presence of Cravanian CentCom for NWTO. It is the location where General Jacob Dawson commands the Northwestern Theatre of Operations.
Geography
The island is roughly 4km by 5km, and is relatively small. It is covered by snow year round, and keeping the runway de-iced is a challenge.
The majority of the island is covered by coniferous forests, and there are some streams running through it. The base situated on the island is among the most heavily defended in Cravan's military, equal to the bases at Cravna, Cayanace, and others.
History
The island was acquired by Cravan in the late 1970's, and immediately its strategic value was recognized. An airfield was established on the island, and eventually a small naval base. Long range RADAR systems were put in place, and nothing goes unseen in the region.
Eventually, when Cravan was selecting areas to put command centers, the island was selected due to its secureness and relative position in the world. It was deemed a key strategic asset, and construction of the command facilities began immediately.
Base
The base on Colorsia consists of most things found at your average military base. An airfield, barracks, supply center, radar stations, naval facilities, and other key structures.
The thing which sets it apart, though, is the presence of the command center for the NWTO. Therefore, the base has a much higher security detail than most others of its size. There are several air squadrons stationed on the island, and two Imperial-class battleships are tasked with patrolling the waters of the island. It is considered one of the more heavily fortified bases of Cravan's military.
