Government Type:

Constitutional monarchy

A model based upon the old US government model but with a monarch head rather than an elected president which, in irony is the very thing the constitution fought against.

Head(s) of Government:

Persons of Importance:

Queen Charlotte; The sister of King Theodore. She is 38 years of age and acts as a counter weight to Theodores impulsive behavior with her wisdom. She is well mannered and quiet most of the time. She despises being photographed and social events even more so.

More will be added as certain plots begin.

Race(s):

Mixed ethnicities. Majority being of western European and north African descent. There are no real notable subspecies as people are -mostly- regarded as equal.

Population:

Very large due to packed urban areas like new York.

Culture and Religion:

Consumerism drives this fairly similar to today's culture. Small and large businesses alike vie for power and prosperity among an ever growing and evolving population. This open economy model has allowed for a wide variety of products and the lax laws on certain things such as guns and automobiles has created huge leaps in designs through constant competition. This competition does not stop at guns and automobiles though. Music and Motion pictures are a huge growing market throughout the nation.

Due to growing and advancing automated manufacturing and agricultural processes, the need for basic physical labor has decreased drastically. This has led to a fluctuating employment level but for the most part it is low as people are usually forced to learn more to survive. This has led to a more intellectual community that has more or less stomped out religion. The only true faith that is openly accepted by the majority of the population is 'The Founding Fathers'

This religion is basically based around the old time American 'founding fathers' and their ideals. A more or less nationalist faith based upon community service and various freedoms from semi burnt up US bill of rights and Constitution document.

Pre-Cataclysm Technology:

Helicopter designs. Due to a rather large helicopter presence in pre-war united states, the Union has had years to examine and replicate their own models. Though these are nowhere near the complexity and potential lethality of their pre-war counterparts, it still has enabled the nation to create a very mobile ground force.

History:

The unions history is extensive from the great war. National history starts in the moments after the great war ended with the remnants of the old United states. This nation has slowly lost touch with the old reality and formed different faiths that eventually coalesced into the founding fathers faith.

The nation started by peacefully reacquiring old territories but as time continued, various groups were forcibly subdued like the Ohio-kentucky based 'Lexington Empire.' and more recently the 'Curbua federation' where Cuba was located.

Borders were drawn when union forces reached the 'Sanders river' which runs the length of the western borders. There are points across the river that are controlled but for the most part, Union forces reside on their side of the river.

Military:

Union military is surprisingly similar to its pre-war counter part with medium and heavy tanks flank by accurate heavy artillery. Helicopters and jet aircraft operate in close support while a small fleet of aircraft carriers and destroyers project their overseas power.

There are only two branches in the military, an army-air force and the Navy. Both branches headquartered in Massachusetts in a underground bunker complex.

There are many types of fighting units in the nation but below is the more standard and well known weapons of the union possesses,

(A very important note. This does not mean that any of these weapons and vehicles are any better or worse than any other nations counterparts unless agreed upon via collaboration, hence the lack of stats. This is merely an illustration as to what one would see if encountering the military.)











Other: I'm not really assuming the world was exactly irl before the war but for me, the united states to some extent did exist in my general area.
