Kodiak

History
Kodiak has been a military and rescue facility for over 200 years. They're leaders in naval tech and outreach. They tend to export their knowledge because they do not have the manpower to support a Navy. Kodiak left the Union of Nations in 2027, and since then has been a quiet sentinel of the Gulf of Alaska, making very little noise but plenty of preparations.

Government
Kodiak is led by Mayor Roger Smith, a man of few words. He is assisted by four council members, with one spot up for election each year on a four-year rolling basis. Mayors serve five year terms, with no definite number of terms for council members or the mayor. Roger Smith was just elected to his second term in January of 2152.

Economy
The Kodiak economy is mostly self-sufficient, with renewable energy needs being met and food being maintained by a greenhouse facility, fishing, and hunting. It has experienced relative stability since 2130 with no major environmental disasters or economic shake-ups, allowing it to invest in defense and tech. Its biggest export is knowledge, with its studies on naval technology benefitting the entire Pacific region. Its main trading partners are Unalaska and Homer.
