Common Names: United States, USA, US, America
Official Name: United States of America
Starting Leader: Andrew Shaw
Ruling Party:
Ideology: Deep State Thesisnote 
Starting Faction: American Defense Initiative

  • Authority in Name Only: Although American propaganda claims that the nation has complete control over their territory, massive swaths of its countryside is in reality controlled by various cults, bandits, insurgents, and other rebel groups, limiting the government's actual authority to a couple of cities and highways.
  • The Illuminati: While the United States claims to be one of the last true democracies left on Earth, it has in reality been under the control of a deep state known as the "Illuminati" since the early 1960s. Elections and bills are rigged in favor of the Illuminati, with opposition being silenced or imprisoned.
  • Mega City: In order to concentrate and protect the remaining population of the United States following the devastating virus outbreak, the US government initiated a series of urban and social projects, turning several major cities into "Megacities"; massive, walled-off urban sprawls housing the majority of the US population.
  • People's Republic of Tyranny: Although the country upholds an illusion of democracy and freedom, the United States is in fact repressive and authoritarian, silencing opposition and rigging elections in the Illuminati's favor.
  • Police State: Over the past decades with more power being conceded to the Illuminati deep state, the United States has slowly turned into an architectural police state.

Leaders

    Andrew Shaw 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/usa_andrew_shaw.png

Full Name: Andrew Shaw
Party:
Ideology: Deep State Thesisnote 

Andrew Shaw is the starting president of the United States of America, elected back in 1980 and succeeding president William F. Buckley Jr.


  • 0% Approval Rating: In spite of the government's attempts at keeping the country together, Shaw remains hated by the population due to mismanagement and his involvement with the Illuminati.
  • A Nazi by Any Other Name: Shaw's administration has re-implemented some of former president Willis Carto's racial policies, but rather "watered down".
  • Assassination Attempt: Should president Shaw be acquitted of all charges during his trial, an unidentified member of an angry mob protesting outside the courthouse will throw a hand grenade at his motorcade. Lucky for Shaw however, the shrapnel only grazes a part of his skull, landing him in a coma.
  • Puppet King: While being the face of the country and getting blamed for its mishaps, president Shaw is simply a puppet under the control of the Illuminati deep state, having no influence or control over the nation himself.
