In each edition of the MSP Challenge, countries are coded by colours. This is to help users to distance themselves a bit from the real-life countries and assume a more playful mode - one where they are in control and can try out new things. The idea is to make plans for a managerial area without thinking too much about the how the real-life politicians and policy-makers from the actual country might think about it. Thus, the countries profiles are explained to the users for context and objective specification only. It is up to the users to decide what they want to achieve in MSP Challenge and how.
Click on the tab corresponding to the edition you are interested in and check the profile of the brown country in that edition.
Country Brown has only a very small area in the North Sea. We recommend nobody actually plays it, but that a session's facilitator represents it if/when they need to (i.e., when sea-basin-wide decisions are made, e.g. concerning IMO routes). That way the facilitator has some opportunities to influence developments when they matter.
