NorthFrost

NorthFrost is a faction located in northern Greenland close to Canada. It is known for its lack of suitable farmland and its amount of snow. NorthFrost's capitol city of Northland is located underground in hollowed out caverns. Despite its harsh conditions NorthFrost has survived; and thrived in the server as a faction both internationally and domestically.

Political Ideology: Northfrost is currently ran by ChrisChrispie. NorthFrost is ran by an oligarchy and its government is similar to that of the old Roman Republic.The administration has final say on all matters of the state, however a system of government offices and a citizens council is in place to ensure that every citizens voice is heard in the nation.

States and Outposts of Northfrost-

Caen (outpost)- France

Geneva (Embassy/Outpost)-Switzerland

Northern Germany/ The Netherlands (State)-Germany and the Netherlands

Rhodesia (State)- Africa

.

The Landscape: NorthFrost is located in Northern Greenland by the North Pole, it is barren with no trees and very little water. However, NorthFrost currently has a vast supply of dark oak and spruce due to a very well implemented treefarm. Northfrost also has a small sugar cane plantation located around a small natural pool. Northfrost plans to build a revolutionary indoor farm to protect its crops from the harsh enviroment.

Diplomacy: The NorthFrost Kingdom currently is in a truce/ formal trade alliance with Powys. NorthFrost has expressed intrest in establishing a trade center with Powys in Polynesia and currently has a outpost established there. NorthFrost also plans of doing trade in Gibraltar. NorthFrost is also all for a trade depot in Iceland, to make European trade easier. NorthFrost also is interested in trade with Normandy via Long Island.

ElRuey Crisis: On June 24th 2014, a ex-member of NorthFrost who had been kicked for stealing from other factions, joined the faction FISCH, a rebel faction of Powys made by DrRebel. ElRuey claimed that NorthFrost had stolen his stuff and had not given it all back when in fact an journey was made by Carrot to Normandy to give his stuff back that had been taken. ElRuey claimed land outside of NorthFrost in its treefarm and built a cobble structure outside NorthFrosts second wall. When asked to leave by ChrisChrispie, he refused and killed Chris who was armed with nothing. The result was Ruey trapped Chris in his own base and killed him several times. No formal war declaration was put out at the time. Powys than sent its men to Greenland and blew up Ruey's base, however Ruey escaped only to be banned. Shit was so cash.

Invisible Man Attacks Geneva- Another event in the life of NorthFrost is the bengazi-ing of its embassy in Geneva. As Chris was working on the new embassy an invisible man dumped hot boiling lava on him, killing him. This also happend to Bricky from powys.  

Ongoing Diplomatic Tension with SRHF- On July 17th, Paul, the mapper of Northfrost and explore of Northfrost, was mapping Canada by Nova Scotia-A SRHF outpost. Paul was approached my Magoo leader of SRHF and given a steak. Than he was raped by magoos sword and maps of Mexico were taken. Paul was very very pissed off at this and when Northfrost inquired about the missing maps and why Paul was killed illegally magoo said he had lagged out on bedrock and fallen out of the world and that the maps were gone forever. He also said that the killing was not intentional. Paul than decided to build a northfrost outpost in Nova Scotia, sort of a defacto SRHF claim, magoo was very pissed and a member of SRHF lightly griefed the unclaimed spots of the outpost. This made paul even more mad and a diplomatic issue was at hand. Chis the leader of Northfrost came on and attempted to calm tensions telling SRHF that the outpost was not a threat and he would tell paul to move out of the outpost and build somewhere else due to its proximity to the SRHF outpost. SRHF asked for reparations of a timestamped ass pic and for Northfrost to get out of its clay in Nova Scotia-to which Chris agreed to due to the fact that SRHF had more TNT than the United States military and could literally walk into Europe and destroy it. Chis managed to calm tensions and Paul pulled out of Nova Scotia with Chris getting all of the claimed land away, but paul still managed to somehow keep war mongering between Northfrost and SRHF allys by leaking Innawoods coords. Innawoods decided not to invade Northfrost but rather demand reparations of 8 stacks of gold, brought down to 6 stacks of gold and than brought down to two dogs by Chris who also had kicked paul from the faction for starting shit with other factions. Chris also decided that Northfrost would no longer operate in North America and rather look to Mexico and more southern locations.
