States of America: Northern Defeat (Map Game)

Hello, and welcome to States of America: Northern Defeat!

POD
In this Map Game, the USA made more early gains in Canada, worrying the UK, as they wanted to keep some of their North American colonies, so they committed a larger force, utterly crushing the USA at several battles, the most notable being the Battle of Niagara. After the USA was driven from Canada, vengeful British Commanders continued down through the USA, burning many cities to the ground. When Washington was burnt down, the USA was destroyed. The Northern States, frustrated with the failure of the US government to defend them, declared independence, and the Southern States declared independence to give them the power to control their own laws. As casualties mounted, the British halted their expansion and withdrew from all but the Ohio Country and parts of Maine, which were annexed.

However, your probably wondering how this all happened with the British having the available forces, At the Battle of Leipzig in Saxony (16–19 October 1813), also called the "Battle of the Nations", 191,000 French fought more than 300,000 Coalition forces, and in OTL the French won, but in this TL the French were routed after Napoleon was killed by enemy soldiers, allowing the British to end the Napoleonic Wars by the end of 1813 and send a large amount of troops to fight the Americans, allowing the this TL's ending to the War of 1812.

Rules
The Game starts in 1816.

Turns are in years

Game will start with just the former American states

After three turns, the game will expand to include all of North America

Every day at 5 PM Eastern Standard Time a new turn will start, and anyone may post the new turn.
