Florida (The Era of Relative Peace)

Florida  (Spanish for "flowery land") is a state in the southeast United States, bordered to the west by the Gulf of Mexico, to the north by Alabama and Georgia, to the east by the Atlantic Ocean, and to the south by the Straits of Florida. The state shares maritime borders with Cuba and the Bahamas. The state is well known for its beaches, amusement parks, and NASA at Cape Canaveral.

World War III
During the Third World War, the United States Navy used Florida as one of its main ports for REFORGER convoys to Europe. The ports of Miami and Fort Lauderdale were extensively used. Cuban Revolutionary Armed Forces tried but failed to invade the state, though a contingent of Cuban troops landed on the Florida Keys. This would later be retaken by the U.S. Florida was also the starting point for the liberation of the Bahamas, the Turks and Caicos Islands, Haiti, Dominican Republic and the Invasion of Cuba itself.
