I am the leader of a Great Land known as the New Midwest Republic. Centered around the prewar states of Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky, the NMR has a strong military supplied by trade and by prewar tech located within Wright Patterson AFB and Fort Knox as well as many other military bases throughout the three states. The NMR military has both ground troops and 8 fully functioning fighter squadrons and is working to restore many of the other aircraft located within Wright Patt AFB. It also has many tanks and artillery cannons courtesy of Fort Knox as well as a large repository of Gold.

Background
The NMR is a republic that was formed roughly 50 years after the bombs dropped when the mercenary group known as the Wild Aces based out of Wright Patterson AFB began a series of peace keeping missions which slowly expanded into a small protectorate and then into the present day NMR.

Government
The Government of the NMR is led by President-For-Life Richard, who serves as an absentee leader who does not need to be constantly in country in order to keep the nation going. It can function without the input of the President, however he can have final say in any issues that the NMR has. For the most part the NMR is run by a congress of representatives from each of its member cities who oversee the running of the country and keep it running smoothly. The law of the NMR is backed by a constitution which cannot be altered without both a 100% vote from the congress and the approval of The President. While many would object to the life long leadership that President Richard has their objections are squelched by his hands off attitude toward the whole thing. However when necessary, the President can take complete control of the government.

The NMR is dedicated to upholding the good of the old world values while moving away from the sensationalism that lead to the war. THe main body of government is the Congress while the President serves as more of figure head and only takes a full blown leadership role in the case of emergencies.

The NMR has ~150,000 civilians within its territory. Military service of four years is mandatory for all men upon their 18th birthday. They can serve their time at any time between the ages of 18 and 30.

Military
The NMR is trained in the finest traditions of the Pre War military and accepts recruits from all races, Ghouls, Humans and Super Mutants. So long as they are able to function within the military they are welcome to join. The NMR also employs robots, mostly Sentry Bots and Mister Gutsies but a few Protectrons, Robobrains and Securitrons have managed to find their way to the NMR military. The NMR Military has ~35,000 active personnel at any time with an additional ~20,000 men who have already served their mandatory time and been trained who may be called back up to serve in case of war.


 * The main service force of the NMR is the army. The NMR army fields both infantry and armored divisions.
 * The standard infantryman is equipped with Combat Armor a long arm of some sort, a side arm and grenades. Any additional weaponry that the soldier wishes to carry is voluntary and means that they are responsible for it. A soldier in the NMR may arm themselves with any type of rifle that the NMR has access to, these range from WWII era M1 Garands and BARs to R91 Assault rifles and other rifles in use during the Great War. As far as side arms, a soldier can have his choice of pistols or sawed off shotguns. Generally the infantry is equipped with non-energy weapons, however should an infantryman display a proficiency for energy weapons they have the option of using them instead. Specialists can be issued heavy explosive weapons such as missile launchers if they are proficient in that area but for the most part the power armor divisions handle the heavy weapons.


 * NMR Armored divisions consist of Pre-war tanks acquired from Ft. Knox and the Patton Armor Museum outside of Ft. Knox. The tanks range in age from WWII to right before the Great War. All tanks have been retrofitted with Nuclear Fusion engines so as to allow them to function without the use of fossil fuels.


 * The NMR also has artillery divisions courtesy of the the numerous military bases that fall within the area of Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky. Recently the Artillery devisions acquired Saturnite Shells from the Big Mt.


 * The NMR Airforce flies 8 squadrons of Fighter jets, a squadron of P51D Mustangs that have been converted to nuclear power, a squadron of vertibirds stolen from the Enclave and duplicated through reverse engineering, various members of the B series bombers, and various other aircraft that were in the Wright Patterson Airforce Museum and/or on base, all of which have been converted to nuclear power.


 * Special Forces
 * The NMR has three different types of special forces divisions The Power Armored divisions, which are equipped with heavier weapons such as Miniguns and missile launcher and/or energy weapons. They are equipped mostly with T-45d power armor and T-51b power armor although some troopers are equipped with suits of Enclave power armor from past skirmishes with Enclave forces. Generally the troopers packing the heavier weapons wear the older T45d power armor while the troopers with light weight energy weapons such as laser rifles and plasma rifles are equipped with T51b.


 * The second special forces division is the 101st Airborne Division based out of Ft. Campbell, Kentucky. These soldiers are trained in parachute deployment, deployment from vertibirds and other aircraft and generally serve as a midrange outfit between the Rangers and the standard infantry.


 * The third type of special forces are the Rangers, who are the best of the best, taken from all branches of the military and trained to work together to do missions deemed 'impossible'. They are the Best the NMR has to offer and have brought many enemies of the NMR to their knees.


 * Navy
 * The NMR Navy is a brown water navy or fresh water navy, and most of its boats are pre-war civillian vessels that the NMR could slap armor and weapons onto and a few military vessels. The NMR Navy is well supplied courtesy of the Heslar Naval Armory, Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane Division, which are located within its territory and captured equipment from several raids on the Naval Station Great Lakes just outside the NMR's north western border. The NMR also has some former Coast Guard Vessels that were in the Northern Ohio area at the time of the Great War. In addition the NMR has the USS Cod a WWII era Submarine and LST-388, a WWII Landing ship under its control.


 * The NMR Navy is supported by vessels from the Crusader Empire which were sent as part of the Crusader-NMR alliance.


 * Border Guard
 * The NMR Border Guard is a branch of the military dedicated to the defense of the border. Each one is based at a regularly spaced garrison which are between 3 and 10 miles apart. Each is equipped with at least one functioning vehicle, a platoon of soldiers and in high risk areas, artillery cannons. Some of the northern Border Guard bases on the coasts of the Great Lakes are equipped with old Pre-War coastal Artillery batteries that can shoot any ship within 20 miles of the coast right out of the water.


 * Ordinance
 * The NMR has, at its disposal, multiple Atomic Bombs, and while it is loathe to use them, it will do so if necessary. Additionally the NMR has Napalm and Daisy Cutters which it is more than happy to drop on its enemies.


 * The NMR is supplied by numerous pre-war ammo facilities located within its territory and makes biofuel from algae in order to produce Napalm
