Hello, sorry for the long hiatus. I had RL stuff going on as well as connection problems.

But that's sorted out now, so without further delay, the Balkans
************************************************** ********
The Balkan Peninsula

Yugoslavia: The lands of the Balkans are almost in a complete state of anarchy. The confusing mishmash of cultures, languages, religions and other differences has blown up in everyone's face and there are no signs of the situation improving. Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Slovenia are independent states and are mostly comprised of independent, isolated or occupied communities.

Those communities on the Adriatic coast that have somehow survived the fighting are isolated, and there are disputed areas around numerous military cantonments. Macedonia is entirely destroyed, isolated or disputed territory (largely thanks to the Greeks, Bulgarians and Albanians).

Romania: The area around the Ploesti oil-fields contains one of the few remaining oil refineries as well as the world's last major tank force: the Russian 3rd Guards Tank Army. The organized area is surrounded by military cantonments, outside is disputed territory.

The rest of the country is held by local thugs, resistance movements or bandit forces (independent, isolated, terrorized or destroyed area).

Bulgaria: The Bulgarian government rules with an iron fist with the help of the army (military cantonments as well as organized territory). Despite this, however, large parts of the country are in anarchy.

Hungary: The government has declared martial law and local military commanders are now in charge. The nation's borders are at least officially closed to foreigners, but a small black market functions with a friendly nod from a few military commanders. There are military cantonments and organized population centers surrounded by destroyed and terrorized territory.

Eastern Mediterranean Islands: Crete (Greek Army) and Cyprus (Turkish Army) contain military cantonments, though there exists strong anti-Turkish sentiment in Cyprus.

Cyprus has military cantonments from one corner of the island to another, otherwise the territory is destroyed, terrorized or disputed. Crete exists on a subsistence economy. The smaller islands are on their own.

Turkey: The government has utterly collapsed and local military units run the country. Military cantonments, isolated and independent communities are common but anarchy and destroyed areas are in provinces that have seen fighting.
