Luxembourg (1983: Doomsday)

The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is a small landlocked country located in Western Europe. Luxembourg is a parliamentary representative democracy with a constitutional monarch; it is ruled by a Grand Duke. It is the worlds only remaining sovereign Grand Duchy. During the Third World War it was the only not attacked. Despite its steadfast support of the West during the Cold War the tiny country was militarily and strategically insignificant, with less than 1000 men in its army. Still the country suffered from nuclear fallout blowing in from nearby Belgium and France. Still with the government fully functioning it was able to withstand the chaotic conditions that griped most of the rest of Europe.

In the years following Luxembourg has expanded its borders into parts of Southern Belgium, France, and Western Germany. The country is now thought to have grown to around 3 times the size of its pre-1983 borders (though with fallout and lower birth rates it retains around the same population). Radio contact was restored with Switzerland in the early 90 and the country was visited by a Prussian expedition in 2003. Despite this the country remains very isolated from the rest of the world, as it is completely surrounded by lawless/warlord run areas.
