2010 WCRB report on the Future Geopolitical Outlook (1983: Doomsday)

The 2010 WCRB report on the Future Geopolitical Outlook is a report on the projected geopolitical outlook of the world for the next 50 years. It is meant to serve as a guide for WCRB officials and world leaders.

Reunification
As communication and trade lines have been reestablished, talks between survivor communities of various defunct states have suggested that sometime in the future these former countries might be resurrected. While some cases can be dismissed as wishful thinking, others have been discovered to have a level of realism that world leaders should take note of.

France
Discussions of a French "Sixth Republic" have become more serious in the 21st century. On January 7, 2010, Prefect Patrick Stéfanini and Premier Ministre Valéry Giscard d'Estaing expressed their support of unification during the opening ceremonies of the République des Terres Française Australes' embassey in. Meanwhile on March 23, 2010, it was announced that a conference for the French-Successor states would be held in Clermont-Ferrand on May 23, 2010. Notice has been given to representatives of all French successor states, and observer status has been offered to and.

There is a high probability of a reunified France sometime in this decade. That being said this new France would be smaller than the pre- France. It is unlikely that Luxemburg,, , or  would surrender their former French territory to this new Republic. These former claims on territory will have to be negotiated over or it may lead to future conflicts if French nationalists demand the return of all former French territory. This new France would also inherit the RTA's dispute with over the islands of.

Germany
There have been discussions involving a reunified Germany. Already a proposed name, the "German Confederation", has been suggested and some analysts put Germany reunification sometime between 2015 and 2020.

United States of America
Since the disbanded in 1995 and the  was founded shortly thereafter, the dream of reuniting the shattered USA has been the topic of many members of the. As contact has been made with survivor states far in the American interior and as CRUSA expands its influence, the dream of reuniting America seems more realistic than it did a decade ago. Supporters of this idea point toward the foundation of the and the  (PUSA) as evidence of different survivor communities banding together to form larger entities. Some supporters of American reunification feel that there will be a United States sometime between 2018 and 2023. PUSA plans to announce a new constitution on July 4, 2010, and many speculate that they will declare themselves the new United States of America.

Other analysts, which includes the WCRB, disagree with these predictions and feel that they tend to be too optimistic. The cost of such a venture would involve massive investment. Power grids, telecommunications and the interstate system would all have to be rebuilt. , the, or the would almost certainly be involved; and neither country has shown interest in spending the necessary funds and political capital to ressurect the destroyed superpower. The states of Latin America are particulary against reforming the United States, fearing a return of the time when they were subserviet to Americans. Meanwhile, the has also been working to identify any remaining nuclear weapons in the world and would no doubt be against creating a large, nuclear-armed nation in.

Another reason for why it is unlikely that the United States would be reunited is how diverse American survivor communities have become. Some of these states have evolved such diverse identities that many in population no longer identify themselves as American. The and the  have already expressed that they have no interest in joining any new United States.

While a complete American unification might be implausible, local unions are still likely to arise from the ashes of America. The (NAU), an organization created between American and Canadian allied states after the Lakotah War, has shown potential to become larger especially after the ascension of the  and. Meanwhile there has been discussion among the member states of the, the survivor states of Texas and the survivor states of New England in forming regional unions similar to the NAU. It is likely that more American survivor states will ban together in regional unions or federations, similar to the ANZC and the SAC.
