United States of America (3000)

The United States of America, often abbreviated USA, was a major player on the global stage for almost five hundred years. The United States of America was founded on July 4, 1776, when thirteen British colonies banded together and revolted against the Crown. The Declaration of Independence, signed on July 4, 1776, officially broke the colonies from British rule, but this was only recognized by the British at the Treaty of Paris. The United States of America officially ended on March 8, 2307, when American and Canadian officials signed the Treaty of Montreal, which officially merged the two nations into the North American Union.

==Presidents==
The United States of America was established as a representative democracy with a bipartisan system, and no change was made to that setup in the nation's history. The highest office in America was the Presidency, and throughout its history, America saw many people of all different traces of life become President. The following are the US Presidents, starting at the 44th President, Barack Obama.
# 	Name 	Took Office	Left Office	Party 	Vice President 	Noteworthy Events
44	Barack Obama 	2009 	2017 	Democrat 	Joe Biden 	Barack Obama was the first African-American elected President. He was known for establishing the Affordable Care Act, government-funded healthcare. He was one of the most liberal presidents of his time, and he received unusually high approval ratings toward the end of his second term.
45	Donald J. Trump 	2017 	2021 	Republican 	Mike Pence 	Donald J. Trump was the first ever person with no government or military experience to be elected President. He won the Republican Party's nomination in a controversial National Convention. He was famously said to be "unfit to lead" by his opponent, Hillary Clinton, the former Secretary of State. His Presidency is often viewed as a shift between alliance with Europe to an alliance with Russia, due to his ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
46	Elizabeth Warren 	2021 	2029 	Democrat 	Deval Patrick 	Elizabeth Warren, a former Massachusetts senator, became the first woman ever elected President. She took former Massachusetts governor Deval Patrick as her running mate, and was most known for her leadership during World War III. She realigned the nation to an alliance with Western Europe, and spearheaded the peace talks that ended the war and disbanded NATO and PAS.
47	Paul Ryan 	2029 	2037 	Republican 	Obidiah Struck 	Paul Ryan, former Speaker of the House, took the Presidency in 2029 after the narrowest margin in history, winning by one vote in the House of Representatives, over opponent Vice President Deval Patrick. His presidency was one of peace, and his actions are often viewed as the cause of the drastic drop in crime over the eight years of his rule.
48	Obidiah Struck 	2037 	2045 	Republican 	James Winokour 	Obidiah Struck was the first African-American president from the Republican Party. He previously served as the Vice President under Paul Ryan, and he elaborated upon Paul Ryan's works. He worked hard to bridge the partisan divide, and succeeded to an extent, but this relative peace collapsed in the hard-fought election of 2044.
49	Bateen-Zahir Afzal 	2045 	2049 	Democrat 	Diderot Mackenzie 	Bateen-Zahir Afzal was the first Muslim elected President of the United States. The election was very hard fought, with many people referencing the Islamic terrorism of the early 21st century as a reason not to vote for him. The Democratic Party wholeheartedly supported Afzal's campaign, and he easily won the nomination. His Republican opponent in the general election, Valentine Lewis, was very harsh against the Muslim candidate. The partisan divide was strong, and Afzal chose not to run for a second term after witnessing the horrors of his previous campaign. He was elected in the midst of World War IV, and his leadership brought about an end to the grueling conflict, and he had to deal with the worst punishment imaginable: his predecessor launched the first nuclear missile.
50	Diderot Mackenzie 	2049 	2057 	Democrat 	Catherine Davis 	Diderot Mackenzie, the Vice President under President Afzal, became the 50th President and third African-American president in 2048. After Bateen-Zahir Afzal chose not to run, he supported the campaign of Mackenzie, and he easily won the election. His presidency saw the start and end of World War V, and Mackenzie, as Commander-in-Chief, oversaw the most daring military tactics the world had ever seen.
51	Catherine Davis 	2057 	2061 	Green 	Francis Harrison 	Catherine Davis was the first President elected from a party other than the main two in America's bipartisan system. In early 2056, the Democratic Party failed to choose a nominee, as no one chose to run for the party's nomination. They chose to support Davis, the candidate of the liberal Green Party, focused on environmental issues. Davis was slightly too liberal for most Democrats' tastes, and her campaign in 2060 was not successful as both major parties nominated a candidate. She is most known for overseeing the landing of the Unity II on Mars in 2059.
52	Elijah Abernathy 	2061 	2069 	Republican 	Duncan Heath 	Elijah Abernathy was elected after liberals were split between Green Party candidate and incumbent president Catherine Davis and Democratic Party candidate and California Governor Harold C. Whitney. Abernathy was remarkably liberal for a Republican, and he was well-liked by both Democrats and Republicans. He ran unopposed in both the primary and general elections in 2064. His presidency oversaw the launches of Unity III through Unity VI.
53	Harold C. Whitney 	2069 	2077 	Democrat 	Dale Browne 	Harold Whitney, elected in 2068 after a hard-fought campaign against Vice President Duncan Heath, was a proud Democrat, but was a member of the Socialist USA Party until 2048. He was the oldest person to ever be inaugurated at 82, and he stepped down after two terms at 90, still in his prime. He was an avid supporter of the ICST, and even applied to be a member of the Unity IX launch in 2075.
54	Han Zhao 	2077 	2085 	Independent 	Orville Lowe 	Han Zhao was both the first Chinese candidate and the first independent candidate to gain the presidency. He was a conservative, and after the collapse of the Republican Party in 2074, when the Republican Party was re-branded as the alt-right Conservative America Party, most conservatives proudly voted for Zhao, and he won the votes of many liberals, including winning the liberal states of California and New York. He was easily re-elected in 2080. His second term saw the start and end of World War VI, which ended shortly before President Lowe's inauguration. The conflict devastated the country, but Zhao's leadership left him with the highest ever approval ratings leaving office in 2085.
55	Orville Lowe 	2085 	2093 	New Republican 	Harris Calvin 	Orville Lowe, the former Vice President, took office shortly after the conclusion of World War VI, and it was tasked to him to rebuild the country. Lowe ran on the ticket of the New Republican Party, which held fast to traditional conservative beliefs, as opposed to the radical ideas of the Conservative America Party. Lowe was elected to two terms, and he greatly helped rebuild the nation, which led to his Vice President's election in 2092.
56	Harris Calvin 	2093 	2098 	Conservative America	Martin Davis 	Harris Calvin, often called the Godfather of Anarchy, was the first candidate elected from the Conservative America Party. He proudly won the election, despite not being supported by the President, Orville Lowe, whom Calvin had served under. He continued rebuilding the country, but much under racial bias. Eventually, his refusal to sign Ridley Protocol 2098, which would officially designate the resources of Mars as property of the colonies, led to his downfall. The Protocol was enormously popular with the American public, and he was impeached by Congress shortly after. He was the first person to ever be kicked out of the presidency.
57	Martin Davis 	2098 	2101 	Conservative America	N/A 	Martin Davis took office in 2098 after the impeachment of Harris Calvin. He immediately signed the Ridley Protocol 2098, but his approval ratings were abnormally low. His presidency was not marked by anything of note, and Americans immediately went radical liberal next election.
58	Xander Spini 	2101 	2109 	American Socialist 	Montgomery Anderson	Xander Spini, an Italian-American who was a harsh critic of both Presidents Calvin and Davis, was the first candidate from the American Socialist Party to win the Presidency. He is considered the first of five presidents who made up "The Forty Years' Chaos." This was a time in American history when party affiliations were practically non-existent. Spini himself was a conservative independent member of the Reform Party until the election of 2100, when Spini saw a chance to appeal to the people as a radical liberal after the failure of radical conservatism. He had the support of the Democrat and Green Parties, and easily won the election against the young Montana governor Galen Perkins. His presidency saw no affiliation to the Socialist cause, and crime and murder rates were the highest ever. He also signed the 30th Amendment, which changed the presidential term from four years to eight years.
59	Montgomery Anderson	2109 	2117 	Independent 	Karen Franklin 	Montgomery Anderson, who had served as Vice President under Xander Spini, was a conniving demagogue. Personally, he became the Democratic nominee, and under the alias of George Irving, became the Republican nominee. When both Anderson and Irving were entered in the general election, Anderson declared himself the only candidate, and easily acquired 450 electoral votes. Montana governor Galen Perkins won the other electoral votes, merely on a write-in campaign.
60	Galen Perkins 	2117 	2125 	Conservative America	Merlin Hanley 	Galen Perkins had been in politics for a very long time, since a very young age. After the chaos of the George Irving campaign, the public was desperate for a figure who they knew was real. Montana governor Galen Perkins had acquired electoral votes only on a write-in campaign, and he was vastly popular with conservatives. The liberals, split between independent Otis Mason and Socialist Kevin Radcliffe, could not pose a threat to Perkins' campaign. He is considered one of the worst presidents ever, and his logic was very bad. He was extremely conservative, and very much on the alt-right, a radical Conservative America candidate. Many historians believe that he would have started a Nazi-like Holocaust of African-Americans and Muslims had he been given another year. Many people were oppressed under Perkins' presidency, and some have gone as far as to refer to that time period as the Perkins regime, as the nation was teetering on the brink of martial law.
61	Burton Shaw 	2125 	2133 	Independent 	Otis Mason 	Burton Shaw was the liberal remedy to Perkins' conservatism. But he was a radical liberal, eliminating all of Perkins' measures within his first year. Shaw ran as an independent, but was a devout member of the Communist America Party until the 2124 election. He received the support of some conservatives and all of liberals. Shaw turned the nation completely around, from radical conservatism to communism. He began implementing socialist ideals, and the nation's economy diminished, and communism would have been implemented if the next president had any party affiliation.
62	Otis Mason 	2133 	2141 	American Socialist 	Kevin Radcliffe 	Otis Mason was the last, and worst, president during the Forty Years' Chaos. He ran as a candidate for the American Socialist party, but had no affiliation to the party whatsoever. He was even a slight conservative, but most of his ideas were strictly totalitarian. He implemented martial law for the first time in American history, and this only ended once Superintendent Nicholas T. Sylvester of the American Spacefleet refused to serve the American government any longer. He issued the Edict of Peace, which instead of helping his cause, only led the people to vote for a stronger leader in 2140, ending the Forty Years' Chaos.
63	Felix L. Hamilton 	2141 	2149 	Independent 	Jessica Avon 	Felix Leonard Hamilton was the President who is often referred to as the "Father of Peace," after he toppled the American Spacefleet during the attempted coup at the Battle of New York City. He immediately changed the presidential term back to four years. He coordinated daring plans, and it is often said that he personally executed Superintendent Nicholas T. Sylvester. Superintendent Sylvester masterminded the coup, and the American government declared him the worst enemy in the history of the country. President Hamilton, after toppling the coup, established numerous measures to ensure peace. He founded the Bipartisan Coalition, a group of partisan leaders who could suspend the general election and each support a single candidate. The Bipartisan Coalition would eventually elect Jessica Avon, former governor of the Martian colony Whitnia, in 2148. Hamilton is regarded as one of the most influential people in American and world history.
64	Jessica Avon 	2149 	2157 	Bipartisan Coalition	Nicholas Collins 	Jessica Avon was the first person ever to be elected by the Bipartisan Coalition, and the first president to have formerly served as a governor off-planet. Avon served as the governor of Whitnia, one of the first American colonies on Mars. After the enormous popularity of Felix Hamilton, Americans overwhelmingly voted for Avon, his former Vice President. Hamilton himself died on the day of President Collins' inauguration of natural causes. However, Avon started slowly setting the foundation for colonial independence, aided by Iranian astrophysicist Muhammad Ali Hossain, the first representative from the International Martian Colony Lambda. She was a benevolent ruler, most known for her granting statehood to every territory of the US. Before Avon's presidency, there were 57 states. After her presidency, there were 64.
65	Nicholas Collins 	2157 	2165 	Liberal Union 	James Dudley 	Nicholas Collins was the first candidate of the new "Liberal Union Party," which formed as merger of the Democratic Party and several other, smaller liberal parties, including the remnants of the American Socialist Party. By this time, partisan politics were not as prevalent as the had been before the Battle of New York City, and Collins was elected due to his charm and charisma.
66	Benjamin Alexander 	2165 	2173 	New Republican 	Darren Roderick 	
67	Francisco Blackwood	2173 	2181 	Bipartisan Coalition	Samuel Eli Jordan 	
68	Samuel Eli Jordan 	2181 	2189 	Liberal Union 	David Hitchcock 	
69	Gabriel Franklin 	2189 	2197 	New Republican 	Andrew Luther 	
70	Andrew Luther 	2197 	2205 	New Republican 	Richard Almon 	
71	Lisa McDevitt 	2205 	2213 	Independent 	John Peterson 	
72	James Erwin 	2213 	2221 	Liberal Union 	Madison Zwingli 	
73	Madison Zwingli 	2221 	2226 	Liberal Union 	Davina Smith 	Madison Zwingli was the vice president under James Erwin, and was elected by a landslide in the election of 2220. After her first term, during which she turned the country in a very much liberal direction, she was re-elected by a smaller margin in the 2224 election. One year after her inauguration, in 2225, she was assassinated at a press conference in Nova City by one Jacoby Radburn.
74	Davina Smith 	2226 	2227 	Liberal Union 	N/A 	Davina Smith, who had served as Vice President under President Zwingli, was sworn in after her assassination. She made drastic measures to apprehend the assassin, eventually apprehending Radburn in early 2227. Shortly thereafter, when President Smith was en route to the Martian Whitnia colony, she too was targeted by an assassin, and was killed.
75	Andel Van Boelens 	2227 	2237 	New Republican 	N/A; Ryder Wyndham 	Andel Van Boelens was the first person beyond the Vice Presidency to be sworn in through the chain of succession. He had been the Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives before being sworn in. He immediately apprehended the assassin, one Manfred von Aster. After completing the second term of President Zwingli, he ran for election in the election of 2228. He won in a landslide, with former Alaska governor Ryder Wyndham as his Vice President. He was a very moderate conservative, and had the support of many liberals. He was immensely popular, and oversaw many new colonies elsewhere in the galaxy, and worked on improving the Alcubierre warp drive developed at the ICST. He was easily re-elected in 2232, and completed the hypothetical 10-year presidency that was the maximum one could ever accomplish.
76	Anderson Tulip 	2237 	2241 	New Republican 	Demetrius Hanna 	
77	Demetrius Hanna 	2241 	2249 	Reform-Libertarian 	Delano Davidson 	
78	Tendaji Zuberi 	2249 	2257 	Liberal Union 	Zachary Bowdoin 	
79	Zachary Bowdoin 	2257 	2265 	Liberal Union 	Elizabeth Manafort 	
80	Caelen Shea McMahon	2265 	2273 	Bipartisan Coalition	James Odell 	
81	James Odell 	2273 	2281 	New Republican 	Lenox Kipling 	
82	Scott Bentley 	2281 	2289 	Green 	Jordan Ingham 	
83	Martin Cullen 	2289 	2297 	New Republican 	Dakota Barlow 	
84	Dakota Barlow 	2297 	2305 	New Republican 	Leonard Ayers 	
85	Abraham Sumner 	2305 	2307 	Union Coalition 	Darren Chadwick 	Abraham Sumner was the eighty-fifth, and final, president of the United States. The election of 2304 saw an increase in feelings of merging the nations of the United States and Canada into a North American Union. The merger was looked upon as a great benefit for both nations, combining the international prowess of the US with the benevolence and trade goods of Canada. The Bipartisan Coalition met one final time in 2303, and nominated Massachusetts senator Abraham Sumner and Florida representative Darren Chadwick as the "Union Coalition" ticket. The vote was almost unanimous, both electoral and popular, and the Sumner presidency saw the deliberations that led up to the Treaty of Montreal in 2307, officially establishing the North American Union. America had lived for 531 years, and had survived through so much, and the merger was one of peace and gratitude, and the North American Union would carry on the dream of America's Founding Fathers.
