Starting on April 22, with the secession of the U.S. State of Iraq with Afganistan leaving two days later. Many other states would secede in the weeks and years to come speaking the Third American Civil War.
The American Empire would begin to collapse with the Irish Offensive on 2207 and the creation of the Commawatch resistance group in 2213.
