World Factbook Entry

Biome : Tundra | Taiga | Climate : Boreal | Steppe | Season : Winter | Weather : Snow | Wind: North | Sea State : Calm


Conifer forests crowned with frost; a stubborn midnight sun stands watch; glacial lakes reflecting northern lights.

Longships launched from Baltic harbors; herds of reindeer driven through the taiga; icebound boats repose in hibernation.

Christmastide with mead and candle; White Nights afire with Black Masses; Midsummer chorus crowning barren mountains.

And fjords.


Welcome to the North.

Welcome to Fjord.

*partakes in some light pillaging and looting*

Oh dear. The summer die-off has arrived.

*quietly mourns all of my dumb puppets*

Hey there, Grogoostania. Welcome to this misty, sleepy region :)

Hey! I’m a puppet for a kind of big nation (I challenge you to guess which one) and I needed a quiet and discreet place to sit for a while.

Very understandable. I, too, hibernate in the summertime.

As for your identity, "Kakastania" is far too obvious. A red herring, if ever I've seen one. So I must assume you are Francos spain come back to coup us :P

Woah, Francos Spain came back to life. So weird seeing that nation name not in the Boneyard. Wild...

I had a really tough time deciding which sliver of it to include, given how narrow the dimensions are. Almost any portion made a great regional banner.

Happy 5 year embassy-versary! leaves a basket of cookies
