For the Khalifate, check the "2130" entry on P.65 of SGII - it is a
small
fundamentalist Islamic off-earth nation composed of two ex-IF colonies
of
Abu Haman and Sad Al Bari. Definitely a minor nation, but exports a
quantity of fanatical and effective mercenaries.

The Scandinavian Fed is new to the timeline - we have never detailed
anything about the Scandinavian countries, but wanted to do some troops
in
arctic combat kit and decided to introduce them. They'll have to be
covered
in a future publication. For the moment, I would place them as a minor
power with both on- and off-earth holdings. The SF will consist of
Sweden,
Denmark, Norway, probably Finland (Hi, Mikko!!) and possibly Iceland,
plus
a number of small inner colony and outworld settlements.
