Jamaica (1983: Doomsday)

Jamaica is the largest state of the East Caribbean Federation. As a founding member of the Federation, the formerly independent nation had been a Commonwealth member ruled by a Governor General and the British Monarch. Since Doomsday, the nation has broken its ties with the Commonwealth and now elects its leaders directly after the pattern of the United States. As a member of the ECF, the title of the leader was changed to simply 'governor,' and the title of prime minister has been changed to "president of the Senate" and is chosen from that body.

In the midst of a decline in 1983, the nation emerged strong with the creation of the ECF. By far the largest state, it has the largest armed forces and civilian police force, making it essential in the defense of the Federation against nearby Cuba and the Dominican Republic. It's former dependence upon the United States also made it a natural ally to the United States Atlantic Remnant from its very beginning.
