Confederate Guiana (Multipower Earth)

Confederate Guiana (Officially: Guiana) is a Confederate state located in South America. It has an area of 32,253 sq mi2 (83,534 km2), and a population of 1,587,560 people, of which 321,000 are African-origin, 1,201,000 are of European origin, and the rest are either American Indian, or Asian.

The territory of Confederate Guiana was transferred to the CSA in the Treaty of Versailles in 1919, when there were around 35,000 people in the territory. Once the Confederates took control, thousands of English-speaking white and black Confederates moved to the territory to assert control. They found an incredibly backward and poorly built territory that France had largely ignored with shanty towns all over. Pretty much immediately, Cayenne was built up with federal money, with the sewage and electric grid being installed around what was then called "Old Town" Cayenne (OTL Nord-Ouest and Centre, and Sud-Ouest north of the river).

Confederates soon began building up past the old town, using designs from HJ Klutho, an architect from Chicago who had been building houses in Florida, with hundreds of family houses going up, and neighborhoods and shops going up relatively quickly. Soon, along the shores, more neighborhoods, hotels resembling Hotel Seminole or the Hotel George Washington, and restaurants were built up, and people began moving to the territory, especially veterans from the European theater of the first world war.

The establishment of reliable electricity brought with it the establishment of public building air conditioning, an invention of John Gorrie, from Florida. This made it more comfortable for people from North America to live in the hotter equatorial territory.

As the population grew, the territory was organized in 1931, with a territorial governor, William H Perry, appointed by the Confederate President, and a territorial legislature, which at the time was opened only to English-speakers who owned their own home, which disenfranchised the existing French-speaking population and a number of blacks who had settled there from the CS.

The territory applied to statehood in 1956, and was granted in 1958, when it had a population of 255,000 people. The population grew with the establishment of the southern spaceport Guiana Space Port in 1963, as a backup to the Florida space port at Cape Canaveral. Massive technical investment came in with the space program, building up roads, electric power, massively updated water treatment systems, and sewage processing. Confederates even found out how to recycle aluminum from soda cans and other products efficiently, and began using it to build satellites and other space equipment.
