Courtford is an imaginary country dreamed up by James Willis in 2008. It is situated between Narnia and the United States of Wikipedia. Only being 85 km² it does leave the 32 constituents rather cramped but due to the fact that they all live in the same house, Sebley Manour, they hardly use the space leaving room for their chemical weapons program to take place. The People of Courtford are ruled over by Supreme Dictator Sebastian Lescott who took power on the 27th of september 2008 in a bloody power struggle that took the lives of the prestigious Sergeant Michael Liberty and the underhanded Billy White. Their major exports include good times and expert love makers but they are also renowned for producing a fine homebrew when the occasion requires.

History THe history of courtford isn't very vast as the country has only existed since the 26th of september 2008. The most important event has been the uprising led by Sebastian the Great. The history can be split into 3 basic eras; Pre revolution, Revolution and Post revolution.

Pre revolution On the day before the revolution Courtford was founded and it's original government was instated.
