Nation Name: The Titan Institute
History and Culture: The Titan Institute of Technology was originally founded with the goal to push humanity forward to a new frontier. Many of humanity's best minds were drawn to the Institute's call for the betterment of all humankind through science. All over Titan it was easy to see the mark they left. Infrastructure, power generation, even food cultivation all grew leaps and bounds.
When Mars broke free from Earth in it's war of independence, the people of Titan looked to the Institute for guidance and leadership, and so it was that a group of eminent scientists, engineers, and doctors formed the first Technocratic Council of Titan, taking over from the previous colonial dominion.
The current Dean Knavichev continues the Institutes's original dream of pushing humanity forward. It is said experiments with cybernetics and the human genome are prevalent. Now with a small, yet well-trained standing armed force, it seems clear that they he will be willing to defend his dream against anyone who might threaten to dismantle his goal for human kind.

Military: Mainly defensive with a emphasis of quality over quantity. Titan doctrine espouses empowering the individual with all the tools and training needed. They rely on the superior technology provided by the Institute to provide an advantage whenever possible.

"Aaron - help us with the wood gathering, imagine the still will need a lot of fuel."

He then looked to Harry as he motioned to the Humvee. "Take a look at the Humvee and see if you can see any easy repairs. It's banged up and I'd rather not have to leave it on the side of the road with the amount of gear we're carrying. If you need an extra set of hands let me know and I'll move Aaron to you."

With everyone now assigned a task, The Captain went to assist with the wood gathering.

My general thought is to head to Kalisz.

My Character has shared that remnants of the 5th might be located there, so there is a good reason for us to prepare and head in that direction.
Funk's character has also stated they were originally headed there to deliver supplies.

My bet is that Aseaheru has at least planned a few activities for us if we head in that direction 

"I give you your sidearm back, and you help me with the wood. Show us that you're willing to help out and you'll get your primary weapon back too." Letting out a short breathe Marshal turned to go fetch her pistol from the stash before turning back "And don't get any ideas, if you shoot me, they'll be no one to patch you up when someone comes to put bullets in you." He tapped the red medical cross on his fatigues for good measure.

Matthias pointed towards the Vodnik, "Where were you going with that thing anyways? Sounds like you didn't get along very well with your comrades. Came with quite an arsenal."

I rolled a... 14 

I want her to be part of the party, but I'd rather not just give a pile of weapons to her... just yet

Maybe we can compromise on a pistol?

Matthias stated flatly, obviously not impressed, "No work. no weapons. This isn't a negotiation."

The Captain frowned at the Spetnaz's attempt at communication, but a look of comprehension passed over his face. Needless to say, he didn't seem impressed.

He spoke clearly adding in hand gestures when he thought it would be appropriate.
"Listen, in the army NCOs work for a living. And Geneva? I imagine it's nothing but a glowing crater thanks to your country. So why don't you help me pick up some god damn firewood, and maybe I can teach you a few more words of english. If you help I'll even consider given you your weapons back. Okay?"

He turned to Wallace, and offered a reassuring smile extending his arm for the hatchet. "It's okay, go with the Colonel. Some wood chopping would probably do me some good."
