    Current Factions 

Provisional Government of the United States of America (PGUSA)

Capital: Washington, D.C.
Leader: President Bernie Sanders
Territory: California, Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont, and parts of Arizona, Kentucky, New Mexico, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Utah, Virginia, and West Virginia

Formed from an alliance between the New York and Los Angeles Provisional Governments, the PGUSA is the internationally recognized government of the United States. While it is beset by internal struggles (not to mention being divided between the East and West coasts), it remains the single strongest faction.

Eastern American Workers' Army (EAWA)

Capital: Chicago, IL
Leader: Liberator-General Liam Sutton
Territory: Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, and parts of Kentucky, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia.

Officially known as the People's Republic of Liberated North America, the EAWA seeks to establish an authoritarian socialist state. Since the schism with the Western American Workers' Army, the EAWA has become an absolute dictatorship under Liam Sutton.

Western American Workers' Army (WAWA)

Capital: Seattle, WA
Leader: Liberator-General Salvador Gutierrez
Territory: Idaho, Oregon, Washington, and parts of Montana and Wyoming.

Officially known as the Confederated Free Workers' Communes, the WAWA split with their eastern counterparts after Liam Sutton attempted to purge Salvador Gutierrez and Richard Trumka (the other two leaders of the American Workers' Army). The WAWA is dominated by anarchist ideology, similar to the Ukrainian Free Territory.

Federal Republic of America (FRA)

Capital: Austin, TX
Leader: President Rick Perry
Territory: Arkansas, Texas, and parts of Alabama, Arizona, Lousiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Tennessee

Texas and several neighboring states seceded in 2017 to create the FRA, kicking off the Second American Civil War. The FRA has since suffered several setbacks, and is increasingly seen as little more than a Russian client state.

The Dominion

Capital: New Town, ND
Leader: Marcus Winshape
Territory: North Dakota, South Dakota, and parts of Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Utah, Wyoming

The Dominion is a fanatical Christian sect that believes that the Apocalypse is at hand. Their goal is not so much to create a theocracy as to build a Christian army to fight against the legions of Satan.

Sons of the South (Sot S)

Capital: Stone Mountain, GA
Leader:
Territory: South Carolina, most of Georgia, and parts of Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, North Carolina, and Tennessee

A neo-Confederate militia that came to dominate the South. They are openly racist, seeking to subjugate nonwhites.

Knights of Columbus (Ko C)

Capital: New Orleans, LA (de facto)
Leader:
Territory: Parts of Florida and Louisiana

Originally a Catholic fraternity, the Knights of Columbus have become a Catholic militant organization. Their goal was originally to protect American Catholics (mostly Hispanics) but some seek to establish a Catholic theocracy.

  • The Mafia: The Knights have close relations with both Italian and Irish gangs. Under their watch, New Orleans has become a haven for smugglers and pirates.

National Revolutionary Guard (NRG)

Capital: None
Leader:
Territory: Parts of Florida, Georgia, and Tennessee

Originally the southern affiliates of the AWA who were not as successful during the February Revolt. While isolated from each other, the NRG does enjoy support from China, Cuba, and Venezuela

Gadsden Militias

Capital: N/A
Leader: N/A
Territory: Present in Colorado, Florida, Kansas, Missouri, Tennessee, and Wyoming

A decentralized militia built on anarcho-capitalist ideology. The Gadsdens have no central organization, but their cells are widespread.

Native Guardians League

Capital: Various
Leader: Several
Territory: Parts of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Dakota, and Utah

A loose association of Native American militias. Of the three surviving branches, the Navajo in the Southwest have formed a de facto independent state, the Oklahoma branch has taken control of half the state, and the Lake Traverse affiliate is allied with the EAWA.

Canada

Capital: Ottawa
Leader:
Territory: Canada and Angle Inlet, Minnesota

So far, Canada has mostly stayed out of the conflict (in part due to agitation by the leftist Quebecois Liberation Army). However, Canada did permit PGUSA forces to cross Ontario to attack EAWA-held Detroit, and later hosted a ceasefire conference between the EAWA and the PGUSA. Canadian forces have also (at the request of the PGUSA) occupied the Angle Inlet to prevent the Dominion from doing so.
