Zeonic Mid-America Defensive Line

The Zeonic Mid-America Defensive Line (Or even called the Mississippi Barricade) is a long and guarded barrier that spans from Minneapolis, Minnesota to New Orleans, Louisiana. Roughly 1400 miles long, the barrier is mostly along the Mississippi River, but also covers the western shore of Lake Michigan. The locations where the barrier isn't close to water is through Northern Wisconsin (From Minneapolis to Green Bay) and through much of Illinois (from Chicago to St. Louis)
== Barrier description ==
The barrier is approximately 1,400 miles (2,253 kilometers) long going through nine of the ten states that are bordered by the Mississippi River. The barrier is a fortified by airports, existing or newly installed missile silos, gun turrets, and military factories. Factories in Green Bay, Sheboygan, and St Louis help the Principality of Zeon in manufacturing mobile suits, naval ships (exclusively in Green Bay and Sheboygan), military vehicles and aircrafts, as well as other miscellaneous utilities.
The barrier works as a tactical line of defense for Zeon's North American territory. It is mainly ran by the Midwestern Americana Battalion with headquarters in Green Bay (north) and St. Louis (south).
== Barrier route ==
=== Minneapolis to Green Bay ===
The barrier starts in downtown Minneapolis, there the barrier goes east across the Mississippi River entering the state of Wisconsin. Starting near the river is the city of River Falls (about 24 miles outside of Minneapolis). The route continues east into Spring Valley, then into Eau Claire the route continues into Stevens Point, Clintonville and into Green Bay's neighboring village of Ashwaubenon.
=== Green Bay to Chicago ===
From the village of Ashwaubenon, the route curves southeast into the neighboring city of De Pere. 31 miles southeast of De Pere is the city of Manitowoc where the barrier then travels south into Sheboygan and curves southwest into Milwaukee. The route arcs southeast into the state of Illinois and in the city of Chicago.
=== Chicago to St. Louis ===
In Chicago, the barrier moves southwest into Bloomington. After it goes through Bloomington, it goes through both Lincoln and Springfield where the barrier continues its way through the towns of Auburn, Virden, Carlinville, and into the state of Missouri. At the Missouri border is the city of St. Louis.
=== St. Louis to New Orleans ===
The rest of the barrier follows the Mississippi River south from St. Louis into major the major cities of Memphis, Tennessee, Baton Rouge and New Orleans, Louisiana.
