Svenksa Riket
Chaos: that was life in Sweden for a long time. The economy had floundered along with the rest of Europe, and a lot of Swedes were angry. With immigration into Sweden being high already, and the rise of Islamism, that anger was directed at Muslims and other non-European immigrants in the hearts of many. Neo-fascism began to rise in earnest at around 2022, and the Svenska nationalsocialistiska partiet (Swedish National Socialist Party) had come to be at the forefront of that after several mergers of smaller parties. By 1935 they had held 28% of the seats in the Riksdag. By 1937, the head of the party, Anders Natvik, was declared Prime Minister of Sweden with over 69% of Rikstag seats.
Within the first few months of his term, Anders dissolved the institution of the monarchy and enacted several laws that ensured his rule, renaming his title to Svenskhjalte. Rather swiftly, any Muslims, Africans, and Middle-Easterners are declared non-citizens, have their assets seized, and then deported.
With extreme patriotism and nationalism comes militarism, it is almost inevitable. As such, the construction of a formidable Swedish military was a large part of the SNSP's manifesto. A first expansion into the Strålandekraft begins, with the plans as follows:
Army:
190,000 soldiers
380 MBTs
1,000 APCs
500 Self-propelled Howitzers
Navy:
10 Destroyers
20 Frigates
41 Corvettes
15 Submarines
Airforce:
145 Fighters
250 Bombers
48 Helicopters
To support this a very organised work regime is devised, based upon that of the German Reich of 1933-1945. National work schemes are created, helping unemployed men and women into jobs, largely ones of labour. Construction of renewal energy sources such as hydroelectric dams, and wind farms are a focus, although infrastructure is a key part. State railways and motorways are expanded and modernised, with high-speed maglev monorails and automated traffic control so as to minimise congestion.
All of these efforts are supported and idolised by state propaganda, such as:
Diplomats reach out to several nations:
To Germany an offer of military alliance and trade is made.
To Russia an offer of non-aggression pact and trade is made.
To Finland, a demand for the ceding of the Swedish-speaking islands of Aland is made. ((MOD PLS))
To Denmark and Norway, an offer of trade is made. ((MOD PLS))
Offers of trade are made to all major ((player)) nations.
