About Carraig

Off the northwest shore of Creta lies Carraig, a small, island nation surrounded on almost all sides by high, mountainous cliffs. The country is cold and damp most of the time, rain being nearly a daily given with hard, cold winters and very short growing seasons. The bulk of their food is often imported from Amestris, Creta, and Esparia. Given the nation's short growing season and rough climate, most of the country's income lies solely in export, small numbers of that being textiles (wool goods), chocolates, crystal, and sheep dairy goods, but the majority of their exports lie in machinery and technological advances. Carraig is one of the world's leading weapons manufacturers, and despite neutrality, holds contracts with most countries in the world to sell arms, satellites, and new advances regularly. The best is kept for themselves, though efforts are made to actively boycott countries dealing with RIOTE. The small neutral kingdom is eternally defensive, though good-natured, and generally couldn't care less about what happens to the outside world since they have their own supply of whiskey even though they need the rest of the world to survive. The running joke is that the nation's motto is "Death to mainland scum!! But leave your money."
