Brief description of your country
Saeard is a Federal Republic with a strong naval tradition that prides itself on being welcoming and peaceful. Once one of the world's most impressive economies Saeard has endured almost two decades of economic stagnation, increasing debt, and high unemployment. The Head of State and Government is the Bretwalda, there is a bicameral legislature and a separate judiciary. Crime rates are increasing, but corruption remains relatively low.

Brief Summary of how you'd like your country to fit in the world
Traditionally Saeard was an industrial power. Shipbuilding was the most important employer, since nationalisation output and efficiency has declined dramatically. Saeard still relies on traditional industrial professions, and its economy is suffering because of it. Saeard has a reputation for being a peaceful nation, and in its heyday was a well respected diplomatic player, who was not infrequently called on to mediate disputes between nations.

The full map hasn't been uploaded as i'm waiting for William to update his claim based on information I provided on the chat, but here's a preview: https://i.imgur.com/W4ERX6E.png. I do encourage you to add a few more cities, though. Your country's pretty naked. Additionally, it wouldn't hurt to tell us a bit about your country in a thread in the OOC discussion forum. So we can get a feel for each another and such. ;D

I think I'll need to alter my brief ever so slightly to account for 30 million natives, being a former colony and for you all being filthy eco commies. But I've altered my location accordingly and I'll do the rest this evening.
