Federation of the Americas (Dawn of War Map Game)

Federation of the Americas (Federación De Las Américas) is a political, economic, and military union of North American, Central American, South American, and Caribbean nations. It was established in the wake of the First World War, Centralization efforts of the continents Key Powers, and the necessity under the Great Depression.

Formation:
The Federation formed as a result of Economic necessity and political want between South Americas nations. Initially in the midst of a rivalry, Gran Colombia and the Empire of Brazil (and its Argentinean ally) came to a detente following the revelation of the rigged elections of Gran Colombia.

Unable to be sure how long this had been going on many Gran Colombian citizens overwhelmingly voted a party willing to speak with and cooperate with Brazil. This eventually led to Gran Colombias inclusion into the Southern Alliance, a series of treaties establishing close political and military ties between nearly all nations on the continent. This Southern Alliance was considered a non threat with only Brazil being seen as the competent military power in South America. The rest of the worlds great powers disregarded this development.

By 1931 the Southern Alliance had made enough economic headway through the Great Depression that Federating was seen as a neccessity to save the continent from permanent destitution and failure. The Federation had officially been expanded to include nearly every single nation on the Continent and it slowly began policies of forming a cohesive national culture, body, and many other centralized efforts.

Initial Push into Global Politics
Following the formation of the Federation most pertinent and important information did not leave creating an informations blackout on the Federation. considered a failed state and destitute much of the world ignored the nation who spent the next 12 years building up and centralizing many of its industries, armed forces, and economic systems.

The Federation in 1943 following some minor diplomatic missions to various nations, and establishing friendly contact with Germany and Japan, launched Operation Salvation a massive surprise assault on the United States. The Operation was widely successful as many US military leaders refused to take the threat seriously only to see modern warships, carriers, battleships, and a well supported marine and army force.

Operation Salvation is considerecd a wild success with the Federation, not only pushing the US mostly out of the Carribbean but pushing the US clear back to their Border with Mexico who had been involved in a brutal slugout with the US for 2 years.

The Federations success against the United States brought their public support for a war the people were initially unsure of, to an all time high. The War effort redoubled and Germany and Japan looking to exploit the new weakness in the Allies began allowing the Federation to manufacture military equipment for both nations as well as purchase natural Resources.

The Federation intervention onto the Axis side however shifted the controlling political landscape of the Axis towards the Mexican Empire and Federation who had not only fought the US to a Stalemate, but had prolonged the war and saved a flagging Germany and Japan

End of the War
With the Fall of Germany in 1945 and the Death of Hitler, the Federation took clear advantage of the situation evacuating any German scientists and Technology it could before the Soviets and United States could get to them. While not getting all of them, a good amount of Scientists were moved back to San Salvación to work for the Federation. Coincidentally the United States and the Soviet Union took the rest of the scientists as predicted.

With the only major abroad Axis force remaining being Japan, the United States wishing to avoid escalating the Homefront offered to make peace with the Federation and Mexico and recognizing their strategic gains. In exchange they would both cease all support for the Japanese Empire who had been holding their own thanks to material support from its American Ally.

3 years later in 1948 the Japanese Empire collapsed following 2 nuclear detonations in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Just after the bombings Korea revolted in mass erecting a Democracy and inviting in US forces to get that nation onto its Feet. The Federation had solidified its power indefinitely against other Great powers abroad.
