Toledo Confederation (1983: Doomsday)

The Toledo Federation is an American survivor nation centralized in what once was Northwestern Ohio. During Doomsday most of the state of Ohio was devastated in nuclear fire due to its political and economic importance. However, the Northwestern portion of the state was spared from immediate devastation, making it one of the more stable regions in North America after the disaster. The area suffered from a long period of isolation from 1983 until about 1990.

Government
As with many other of the United States successor states, the government of the Toledo Confederation is very similar to its predecessor. {INCOMPLETE}

Political Parties
Doomsday resulted in massive political upheaval in the Toledo Federation. This combined with massive immigration from the former Canadian provinces across Lake Erie has resulted in a bizarre political landscape and a variety of political parties. {INCOMPLETE}

The Christian Communist Party
The Christian Communist Party is a minor party that believes in the unlikely combination of traditional Christian beliefs and Communism. The party is unlikely to become a major party in any definition, as there is still a marked anti-communist stigma. It is unlikely that the party will overcome it, despite their self-professed "Christian" connections.

International Relations
The Toledans have excellant relations with tthe other members of the Dixie Alliance, especially Kentucky and Virginia. The Virginians have reckognized the Toledan territorial claims. The Toledans have established relations with the Republic of Superior, and have been negotiating with Superior for the nation's recognition of the Toledan claims.
