United States (Louisiana Revolution)

The United States of America, or America, is a large nation situated in eastern North America, consisting of 30 constituent states, running east along the Mississippi and expanding north toward the Hudson Bay and Labrador Sea. It has a GDP of $9.879 trillion US dollars, and grows at a rate of 6.8% a year, one of the highest in the world. It enjoys one of the highest standards of living in the world and has previously topped the quality of life survey.

The United States was founded in 1781 when it declared its independence from Great Britain and fought for its freedom. Later, it expanded north into British Canada, nearly doubling its territory. It has some of the largest and richest cities in the world, and is generally at the forefront of scientific and cultural advancement along with their western neighbors, Canada and Louisiana. It has generally been a peaceful nation, in that it has only initiated two conflicts in its history -- the Great Plains War and the British-American War.

The United States has made great advancements in medicine and all the sciences. They were the first nation to launch a successful satellite and the first to travel to the bottom of the ocean, a title it earned as recently as 2012. America's political system is generally considered to be one of the most comprehensive and effective in the history of mankind, and it maintains one of the most powerful militaries on the planet, which it uses only for defensive purposes or to carry out joint or special operations with other nations.

America originally relied heavily on the slave trade, but after Rufus King effectively halted and reversed slavery, the southern states who needed slaves to run their economies rebelled. During the brief few years of the rebellion (1855 - 1860), the American Confederation was formed, which made America as a whole look terrible to the rest of the world. They attacked the Oyo Empire overseas and tried to force white supremacist ideals on surrounding nations until the United States defeated and annexed the confederation. However, since this incident, the nation has done exceptionally well at combatting racism and rooting out systemic prejudice.
