United Kingdom of the Faroe Islands

Pauls Britain (officially the United Kingdom of the Faroe Islands) is a growing, developing, and old nation at over 200 days old with citizens primarily of British ethnicity whose religion is Christianity. Its technology is progressing moderately and its citizens enjoy an average amount of technological improvements within the nation. Its citizens pay moderately high tax rates and they are somewhat unhappy in their work environments as a result. The citizens of Pauls Britain work diligently to produce Sugar and Fish as tradable resources for their nation. It is an aggressive country that some say has an itch for war. It believes nuclear weapons are necessary for the security of its people. The military of Pauls Britain has been positioned at all border crossings and is arresting all drug traffickers. Pauls Britain allows its citizens to protest their government but uses a strong police force to monitor things and arrest lawbreakers. It has an open border policy, but in order for immigrants to remain in the country they will have to become citizens first. Pauls Britain believes in the freedom of speech and feels that it is every citizen's right to speak freely about their government. The government gives foreign aid when it can, but looks to take care of its own people first. Pauls Britain will not make deals with another country that has a poor history of inhuman treatment of its citizens.

Ground Forces of Pauls Britain


The Ground Forces of Pauls Britain consists of around 4,000 personnel during peacetime. This is increased during times of war to an unknown figure. Training, tactics, equipment and all other aspects of the ground forces is much like that of the mother country Great Britain.

Equipment

After the British Army adopted the SA80 as its main service rifle, the L1A1 SLR became the standard issue rifle for the Ground Forces of Pauls Britain. As of 2010 Pauls Britain is looking to adopt the SA80 as her standard issue rifle and is hoping to have replaced all L1A1 SLR's by 2015. The L7 general purpose machine gun is the standard machine gun of the ground forces replacing the outdated Vickers machine gun in 1960, shortly after Great Britain began producing and using the gun under license. Unlike Great Britain, Pauls Britain equips all her ground troops with a side arm. The standard issue side arm is the Glock 20 purchased from Austria.

The main battle tank use by the ground forces is the Challenger 2. Pauls Britain had been using the Centurion as her main battle tank up until 2000. But due to the tank being outdated they were completely replaced by the Challenger 2. The FV101 Scorpion and FV107 Scimitar are used as infantry support vehicles.

Air Force of Pauls Britain

Aircraft

During the 1950s the Royal Air Force used the North American F-86 Sabre while they waited for their own jet fighters. After receiving their own fighters the F-86s were donated to Pauls Britain to form the Air Force of Pauls Britain. They are still in active service with the Air Force of Pauls Britain and will continue to serve until at least 2020.

Although Great Britain no longer has a bomber force, Pauls Britain kept a small number of bombers operational. The Handley Page Victor is the only V Bomber and bomber in general to see service with Pauls Britain. It is still in active service since it was first introduced to the Air Force of Pauls Britain in 1975, although the number of Victors in service has decreased since then.
