Central European Republic

The Central European Republic is the sole superpower of Terra. Situated in Central- and Eastern Europe, it covers a large area, including the entire territory of real life Hungary and parts of real life Poland, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Austria, Croatia, Serbia, Ukraine and Belorussia.

It is advanced in technology, employing human-made consciousnesses (Artifical Intelligence) and advanced robots as servants. The first human-made consciousness may have been the National Emergency System, created by Imre Kovac in 1961. Despite this, various other technological advancements (digital video, video games, advanced multimedia, etc.) may not have been achieved and the general population seems to not enjoy the benefits of high-end technology.

The Central European Republic has a standing army - the Central European Republic Armed Forces (CERAF) - and an intelligence agency/political police - the Central European Republic Intelligence Agency (CERIA) - tasked with fighting against any threats abroad or internal.

According to Frederick's emails and Nessie's log on Dalia Kovac, there are extensive and strict regulations regarding various substances, which include "non-regulated desserts" and (possibly) milk, with the possession of the former being a valid cause for police arrests.

The population of the Central European Republic seems to live in fear of the CERAF and CERIA. Nessie's Dalia Kovac file may indicate that general interrogation techniques may involve using physical and psychological harm to extract information from the suspect. Death sentence is still a form of legal punishment in the Central European Republic, with Technician #0 being executed by firing squad for trying to access the National Emergency System's root files.

The Central European Republic has been involved in several armed conflicts in the past, the most recent one was the destruction of the Templar States.

Sources (Nessie interactions and Frederick's emails) point to an alleged civil war called the "Civil Unrest Period" happening sometime during Frederick's life.

### Project Arkadia

Project Arkadia: A series of experiments and research efforts aimed at creating a “ghost signal.” Several prototypes have been tested and PRT7 has been cleared for field testing. A ghost signal is a type of electromagnetic wave based on quantum mechanics that is capable of data transmission while being virtually undetectable. The Project Arkadia research facility is situated in the Carpathians near the River Tisza. Approximately 527 km from NES.

-Object-4 (Designation: FOXHAWK, Alias: Thousand-Eyes): An experimental radar designed to detect living beings, output geographical data and show radioactive areas in a certain region. Project head is Tina Merlon.

-Arkadia (Designation: DOMINIUM, Alias: Voice in the Darkness): Experimental ghost signal. Stationed at For Hasdrubal. PRT7 is under field testing. Project head is Dr. Julius Strafs.

### Die Glocke Solidarity Front
