Foreign relations:

Scandinavia has isolated themselves from most of the nations of the Awakened world, at least until the internal struggles are taken care of. There are a few nations, however, that the Scandinavian Federation do have a more regular diplomatic exchange with:

Europe:

Germany: The nations that make up the German Federation has always been close knit with Scandinavian government throughout the ages. Some nations have warmer relations than other.

Duchy of Pomorya: The Elven duchy has very good relations with the Scandinavian Federation. A former Swedish province, there is much common history and culture to draw upon, and a full exchange of Embassies exists.

Free City of Berlin: Anarchy is frowned upon by the ordered state of the Scandinavian Federation, and because of the covert cooperation between Berlin and the Scandinavian rebel city of Örestad, diplomatic relations are very cold, and no embassy exist in either of the countries. Any diplomatic necessity is handled via the Duchy of Pomorya.

United Kingdom: Normal diplomatic relations exists here, with a full exchange of Embassies. Military cooperation flourishes, technologies studied and a certain exchange of scientists. The United Kingdom did raise a few protests about the military takeover, but since the violence did not break out, and order returned to a troubled nation, the protests died down.

Tir NaN Og: Strained, but polite relations with a minimum of diplomatic representation describes this relation. The ecological issues is something they have in common, but the magic class segregation is an issue they fight about. One Embassy in each capital is all there is.

Russia: The home of the Archenemy since centuries ago, is a cold relation. War, and differing political ideas, as well as the increasing numbers of pirates and criminal elements, keep these nations apart. The diplomatic relations is kept on a minimum level, and only a few Embassies exists to handle the fragile peace.

America:

NAN: Due to the many common ties between the Native American Nations and that of the Lapplanders in Scandinavia, there are no love lost between the Scandinavian Federation and the various states of NAN. Any diplomatic affairs is handled over the UCAS embassies.

Tir Tairngire: The rare tolerance of Metahumanity that exist in Scandinavia makes the relations between the two countries somewhat warmer than could be expected. The political structures differ quite well, but the exchange of diplomatic facilities are full.

CAS: Full diplomatic representation, and quite good relations. Military exchange officers go to training camps in both countries. Industrial cooperation is also very high on the agenda.

UCAS: Similar arrangement as with the CAS makes Scandinavia a middleman. Balancing both nations relations, never favouring one over the other makes for a good but hard situation, with many interesting bonuses.

Aztlan: Only polite diplomatic relations. Since Aztechnology is barred from the Scandinavian Federation, the Aztlan government wishes no closer diplomatic exchange. Only one Emabssy in each country.

Asia:

JIS: The Japanese Imperial State is the major counterpart of military and technology exchange projects. Diplomatic relations are therefore very good, and they have agreed on many fruitful joint ventures.

Awakened Siberia: As with the Native American Nations, the common issues between the Siberians and those of the Scandinavian Lapps makes the diplomatic relation border to hostile. Diplomatic Affairs is handled via the JIS Embassy.
