Military

Military matters of the Kingdom of Pelinai are governed by the Pelinese Ministry of Defense, which manages the Pelinese Armed Forces as well as military-adjacent entities like the Main Directorate of Military Intelligence (GVRU). The Pelinese state maintains significant offensive and defensive capability in the realms of both conventional warfare and grey-zone operations. The Pelgvardiya, a sub-branch of the Pelinese Armed Forces, also serves as the internal troops and rural police force of Pelinai.

Foreign relations

Economy

Agriculture

Agriculture in Pelinai is split between the humid-subtropical coastal regions and the alpine inland regions, which produce different crops to suit local weather and terrain. Major agricultural products in Pelinai include apples, beets, cabbage, carrots, cherries, lettuce, pine nuts, potatoes, rice, roses, wheat, and zucchini, and smaller quantities of other crops are also grown. Animals are also farmed, with most production focusing on chicken and pork.

Fishing & aquaculture

Historical and current difficulty with farming in Pelinai prompted the development of a significant fishing and fish packing industry through the twentieth century. The largest producer of fish in Pelinai is Borushoriba Fish Company (BSK) in Yuuziminato, Pelograd Prefecture, which was founded in 1907 and supplies a large portion of sardines, tuna, and cod fished in the eastern Mediterranean zone and the Eastern Ocean. Major customers include Pelinese grocery store chain Bisuri and canned food company Tsurikana. Major foreign purchasers of fresh and frozen fish from BSK include Myria, Sallodesia, and Stoinia.

Tsurikana Packing Ltd., founded in Kurashuni in 1983, is the largest canned goods company in Pelinai by total estimated value. In addition to canned soups and fruits, Tsurikana cans sardines, tuna, herring, mackerel, and other fish that are produced in Pelinai or imported from suppliers in Sedunn. Major customers include Bisuri Stores Co. and the Pelinese Armed Forces. Large volumes of canned fish are also exported to foreign purchasers like Kliegme and Sedunn.

Forestry & silviculture

Pelinai has a growing timber and tree-farming industry that has grown in size since its initial foundation in the 2000s. Major produced woods include fir, palmate maple, oak, pine, red maple, and sakura, of which pine is the most commonly farmed tree. Farmed pine timber is exported to Sallodesia and Sedunn, either as lumber or in Sedunn’s case as wood pulp for the manufacturing of paper.

Energy

Pelinai has a nationalized energy grid, with all providers of electricity and electricity distribution services being owned in whole or in part by the Pelinese state. Nuclear fission-derived energy is the largest source of electricity generation capacity, and a combination of light-water and molten salt reactors contribute 76% of total Pelinese grid capacity. Another 19% of capacity is provided by wind energy, and the remaining 5% is a mix of solar, waste incineration, and fossil fuels. Emergency capacity is provided by natural gas fueled power stations. The Pelinese government is actively pursuing the expansion of thorium-fueled nuclear power plants.

Manufacturing

The manufacturing base of the Kingdom of Pelinai as it exists now first arose in the 1990s under the Pelinese Ministry of Economics’s effort to introduce modern industrial standards to the nation during postwar reconstruction. Mediterranean Precision Manufacturing Systems was founded as a joint public-private company in 1993 under the Made in Pelinai 2010 Initiative, and other companies like Pelektronik and Aetherdyne would also receive substantial investment from the Pelinese state under the newly established state capitalism system. MPMS, which produces CNC machine tools and other industrial manufacturing tooling, then became a major supplier for Pelinese companies that were establishing, overhauling, and modernizing manufacturing facilities as part of Made in Pelinai 2010. It now produces EUV lithography machines and other ultra high precision devices as well as machine tools and other standard equipment.

Aerospace

Pelinai’s state-backed domestic aerospace development and manufacturing industry is one of the largest in Pacifica, and is supported primarily by sales to the Royal Pelinese Air Force and domestic airlines. Aircraft production facilities are generally concentrated in eastern Pelinai, especially in the cities of Samoryōruta and Hanakoroga. Domestic demand for aircraft and aircraft components is great enough to support a wide variety of manufacturers; major aircraft producers include Aetherdyne, Torikov, Kaiyoko-Ruzikov, Nanohi, Berkut IDB, and Harukovic, supported by components producers like Tyr IDB, Yuzimashi, Pelektronik, and Belahi Aviation. The total employment of the Pelinese aerospace industry, including supplier companies of aviation-specific components, is approximately 200,000 workers.

Electronics

Sakanov Electronics, an integrated device manufacturer producing semiconductors and electronics components founded in 1995, was one of the first companies in the world to adopt the EUV lithography method of producing components in 2018. It produces semiconductor components, integrated circuits, and computer and server parts such as SSDs, hard disk drives, RAM sticks, motherboards, CPUs, and GPUs, as well as other device components. Major customers include Aetherdyne, Mediterranean Precision Manufacturing Systems, Pelektronik, and the Pelinese state as the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of State Industry.

Pelektronik is a military hardware manufacturer headquartered in Sankt Perinaigrad that specializes in the design and manufacture of military radars, sensors, guidance systems, fire control systems, and other weaponized electronic devices, as well as some civilian equipment such as weather and air traffic control radars. It produces many of the electronic components found in Pelinese military aircraft, naval vessels, and other weapon systems, and is a significant defense contractor for the Pelinese Ministry of Defense. Major users of Pelektronik-sourced devices include Aetherdyne, Shiroimizu Naval Yard, Nanohi, Berkut IDB, and Fuyumako Heavy Engineering.

Machining & metalworking

Korolyeviya Metallics, founded 1984, is a metalworking conglomerate headquartered in Korolyeviya and a major global producer of bar stock carbon steel, stainless steel, high-speed steel and tool steels, and other steel alloys, as well as primary forms of the aforementioned metals. It also operates metal casting facilities tailored towards high-volume production for major manufacturers. Its major customers include Aetherdyne, Kazamatsuri Design Bureau, Yusuko, Sakanov Electronics, Mediterranean Precision Manufacturing Systems, Pelkosmos, and Zheleznov Motors.

Setaiyoka GK, founded in Korolyeviya in its current form in 1992, is the largest Pelinese operator of metal casting and primary forms plants processing nonferrous metals such as aluminium, magnesium, copper, and exotic superalloys such as those based on nickel. It produces a plurality of die-cast nonferrous metal products for use in the entire range or commercial and industrial applications. Major customers are Aetherdyne, Sakanov Electronics, Mediterranean Precision Manufacturing Systems, Zheleznov Motors, and Tyr IDB.

Petrochemicals

Kurotsukai petrochemicals, a state-owned petrochemicals corporation founded in Zholtograd in 1998, is the largest Pelinese manufacturer of most major petrochemical products and materials. Its primary products include synthetic rubbers like nitrile rubber and styrene-butadiene rubber as well as various plastics like high-density and low-density polyethylene. Major customers include Aetherdyne, Sakanov Electronics, Mediterranean Precision Manufacturing Systems, and Pelektronik. High volumes of synthetic rubber materials in particular are exported to Sallodesia and Stoinia.

Mining and extraction

The Kingdom of Pelinai possesses a large supply of mineral ores due to its proximity to the Mediterranean Rift and other tectonic features, as well as abundant petrochemical and natural gas resources. The entirely public-owned Pelinese mining industry, led by the Ministry for Strategic Resources, mines and processes a wide variety of metals, rocks, and other products. Prominent deposits include the Zholtograd Igneous Complex, the Korolyeviya Igneous Complex, the Tanaka Mine’s iron oxide copper gold deposit, the Mediterranean Massive Sulfide Ore Deposits, and the kimberlite pipes at Ivanov Mine and North Creek Mine. Other deposits exist, including heavy mineral sands deposits along the coastline of mainland Pelinai. Resources extracted by Pelinese companies in significant quantities include antimony, arsenic, barium, beryllium, cadmium, chromium, cobalt, copper, gallium, germanium, gold, hafnium, indium, iron, lead, manganese, mercury, molybdenum, nickel, niobium, platinum group metals, rare earth elements, rhenium, selenium, silver, sulfur, tantalum, tellurium, thorium, tin, titanium, tungsten, uranium, vanadium, and zinc. The Pelinese economy benefits greatly from its reliable access to domestic production of most technology-critical elements, and the Kingdom of Pelinai is the only South Pacifican producer of several.

the Pelinese Ministry of Strategic Resources engages in experimental deep sea mining in cooperation with a Myrian firm, particularly around the Eastern Ocean Trench. Harvested ores are primarily metalliferous sediments and polymetallic nodules, which together contain primarily cadmium, cobalt, copper, iron, lead, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, titanium, vanadium, and zinc. PMoSI-harvested metals are processed in Pelinese facilities like Letograd Metal Refinery Complex before being sold to either domestic or foreign manufacturing facilities for further usage.

Gemstones

In addition to minerals, Pelinai also mines gemstones in relatively high volume. These include diamonds, orthoclase and moonstone, jade, zircon, and various species of garnet, tourmaline, beryl, corundum, quartz, and spinel. Gemstones have held a place of prominence in Pelinese culture since the early 19th century, and the production of faceted stones and jewelry is a well developed industry in Pelinai.

Quarrying

Pelinai quarries multiple varieties of rock for construction and industrial usage, including granite, marble, basalt, mica, and slate. Most quarries are in the western mountains of Pelinai, where a broad selection of high quality stone can be found.

Atmospheric extraction

The Kingdom of Pelinai is one of the largest exporters of noble gases in the world due to its large cryogenic fractional air distillation industry, which proliferated in the early 21st century in order to take advantage of consistently low electricity prices. The largest complex performing CFAD is in Letograd, with smaller facilities in Zholtograd and Korolyeviya.

Languages

The official national language of the Kingdom of Pelinai is Pelinese Hinomoto, which is spoken at a high proficiency level by approximately 98% of the population. Pelinese Hinomoto retains a high degree of similarity to other Hinomoto variants in most respects, but contains many Karnetvorian- and Bregoder-based loanwords and may substitute the letter “R” with the letter “L” in certain words. Bregoder, Karnetvorian, Kretti, and Spirasian Tarnese are all prominent minority languages in Pelinai with varying degrees of distribution and prevalence. School students in Pelinai typically learn both Pelinese Hinomoto and Bregoder since preschool, and begin studying their choice of either Karnetvorian, Kretti, or Spirasian Tarnese during primary school.

Education

The Pelinese education system is divided into preschool (ages 4-5), primary school (ages 6-12), high school (ages 13-18), and higher education (university). Education is compulsory in Pelinai, and parents must either take their children to a school or provide them an equivalent homeschooling education whose quality is verified annually. Universities in Pelinai are publicly funded and students can receive significant education subsidies in exchange for high performance in classwork. Trade school is also maintained as an institution that provides both early college classes and classes to become certified in the practice of a non-university profession such as masonry, construction, or machining. The education system in Pelinai reaches the vast majority of Pelinese citizens, 99.9% of which are literate.

Technical universities are emphasized in Pelinese education, and most degree holders work in STEM professions. Foreign exchange programs for Pelinese universities exist, and degrees from engineering colleges like the Korolyeviya Institute of Science and Engineering are highly reputable abroad. Degrees in non-STEM subjects like art and writing are classified separately, and academic programs that bestow them are administered through different institutions.
