== History ==
 
GFWFA Varinco was established in 1951 through law by the Variotan Parliament. In order to maintain and strengthen the self-sufficiency of the nation, partially in response to the situation in [[Fulgistan]], the government ordered the four largest corporations belonging to the defence industry to form together into one. The government was to hold a minority share at forty-nine percent of the business but would, in turn, invest an amount equal to the value of their share into the business; this investment was intended to be used for research and development as well as improve the capabilities and competitiveness of the business. Other such semi-state owned businesses were also formed in other economic sectors deemed vital to the independence of the nation, albeit Varinco remains the best known example of this. The current chairman of Varinco, J.D. Karrewasser, is a shareholder and current heir to the Karrewasser tank factories.

Varinco's international customers include the [[Girkmand]]ian armed forces and the [[Fulgistan]]i armed forces. Observers say that a deal may be made in the near future to equip the [[Prymontian Rus]]' armed forces.  Additionally, due to Varinco's acceptance of alternative payment methods, it sees a lot of business from freedom fighters, private military companies, paramilitary groups and other such groups.
