The Medwedian Democratic Federation (MDF, short Medwedia, Medwedian: Medwedisk Demokratisk Føderatjon) is a totalitarian dictatorship located in western Firesvar. Considered to be one of the most authoritarian and isolationist states of Kerbin, Medwedia has been governed under various forms of dictatorship since its foundation in 2069. The country is notable for its practice of feudalism, a dysfunctional, military-oriented economy and disregard of kerbal rights.

Etymology

"Medwedia", the stylized abbreviation of the term "Medwedian lands" that was used to refer to the areas controlled by the city of Medwed (which is the capital now) in the Middle Ages, comes from the Karolic-Ugric language of the original inhabitants of Medwedia. It is derived from the word "medveaz", which means "the first" or "ancient" and refers to the fact that Medwed was the first Kafrican settlement in the area.

Geography

The Medwedian Democratic Federation is located in northwestern Firesvar, bordering Norland to the west, the Great North Sea, which separates it from Kafrica, to the east it borders Celeste, to the southeast Helacia-Sondermark, and Edva to the north. The territory of Medwedia amounts to 18 thousand square kilometers, 35% percent of which are military, industrial and border areas as well as national parks off-limits to ordinary citizens.

Military

The Medwedian Democratic Federation is notable for its large and poorly-equipped armed forces and the extensive State Security apparatus used by the government to crack down on dissent. Despite the extreme poverty of the population, Medwedia posesses a fairly modern motorway and rail network built in the 20th century to fulfill the needs of the military.

History

Ravaged by frequent civil wars and conflicts with its neighbors, the country was first unified in 2069 and is currently ruled with an iron fist by the "National Collectivist", neofeudalist, far-right Medwedisk Folksparti. The small elite, headed by the dictator Theodor Lynden Frankenstein, treats the country as its personal property. Significant portions of the population are serfs employed in mega-farms or slaves toiling in work camps and mines. The government profits off this cheap labor, which is sold to other rogue states and international corporations.
