FIRST STARSHIP LAUNCHED
July 21st, 1293IR In an event that will be remembered in the history books, North Mack finally launched its first Interstellar Battleship today. Outfitted with all the latest technology, including the newly developed Artificial Gravity System, as well as the Boranian Shift Drive, the ISS Contact heads for the stars. It will shift to a location that is thought to be the origin of a extra-terrestrial radio signal, in the hopes that it is artificial. No word on the result of the mission as of yet.

General Information

The Terran Empire of North Mack is located on the planet Heimatland, which literally means 'Homeland'. The Empire gained control of the planet after conquering its neighbors using a slight technological edge. The Empire has maintained that edge, funding the most advanced research efforts, and spending a whole 59% of the Government Budget on defence related projects.

A Short History

North Mack was originally only one of many nations on Heimatland, indeed, it had succeeded from the oppressive nation of Mack. North Mack, due to its small status, saw that it needed an edge. It funneled all available funds into research and military technology. It gained several advantages over its neighbors, so that when war did come, North Mack not only endured, but prospered. a mere 700 years after North Mack became independant, it controlled the entire planet. (The last enemy nation fell on June 25th, 732IR.) It saw nowhere else to go on the planet, so it looked to the stars. At first, the Empire could only reach its own solar system. After it had filled out the solar system (Mining asteroids for metals, and comets for ice and water, building military outposts on every rocky planet, and sewing satellites like seeds) North Mack looked for signs of extra-terrestrial life. And it found them. Recently, the ISS Contact (ISS stands for Imperial Star Ship) headed out into the galaxy, to connect with other intelligent races.

The Government

As the government is focused entirely around the military, it it ovbious that most government officials were former military soldiers (Indeed, the Kaiser himself was a Captain in the Imperial Army). In fact, in order to become a high ranking official, a person must have served more then the mandatory 2 years in the military.

Topographic Informaiton

The planet of Heimatland is mainly plains, but also has a large amount of forests and mountains. This diverse geography has allowed the Imperial Armed Forces a wide range of training locations, so that they are prepared for combat in any terrain.

Political Information

Every 20 years a vote is made to elect the Kaiser, who then choosed the Premeir positions. Local officials are elected by constituents, to ensure the voice of the people is heard. Although there are many local representatives on Imperial Hill, the true decision making is left to the Kaiser and the Premeirs.

The Armed Forces

The Armed Forces of North Mack consist of the Imperial Army, the Imperial Star Force, and the Black Corps. The Imperial Army is trained and equipped to fight on a variety of terrain, climate, and situations, making it the backbone of the Empire. Although the Star Force might make it to extra-solar planets, the Imperial Army secures it.

Black Corps Special Forces

The Black Corps take on the most dangerous missions in the entire Imperial Armed Forces. They stike hard and fast, and leave the target before their presense is even detected. Although most information is classified on them, they are widley known as the supersoldiers of the Empire

SCSM1k1

As North Mack found itself deploying its Black Corps soldiers on an ever increacing amount of dangerous missions, casualties began to mount. On one mission, three Black Corps soldiers were killed, the greatest mission loss in the history of the Black Corps program.

North Mack scientists began development of a highly advanced armor system, that would make the soldiers nearly invincible. It was called the Spartan Combat Suit Model 1, Version 1, or the SCSM1k1. Made of special synthetic materials, the suit is an entirely enclosed system, allowing its user to even battle in airless environments. The success was immediate. Since the deployment of the suits on missions classified as REAVER5, or missions that would essensially be suicide for even an entire brigade of regular soldiers, only 2 Black Corps soldiers have been lost, both due to suit failure.

There is talk though of Embasies being opened up in other parts of the nation, but this is hearsay.
