New Leeds

New Leeds is a state in the United States of America. 
New Leeds lies on the east bank of the Culver River. The state's largest city is Scarborough City, a large metropolitan area that includes many smaller neighborhoods. New Leeds is also known for its upstate region.
== History ==
Much like other Culver River states and cities, New Leeds was established as a trading colony by the Dutch in the late 16th century, with the capital metropolis and the state as a whole under the name New Hague. In 1666, the Dutch-controlled area came under British control. The city was renamed to Scarborough, and the area surrounding was renamed to New Leeds - named after the British town.
New Leeds progressed heavily throughout the remainder of the 17th century and into the 18th. The American Revolution brought about regular contest of the area, with Scarborough left battered after frequent exchanges of power by the end of the war, with the area finally resting in American hands.
In the 19th century, the American Civil War brought more bloodshed to the state. In the decades preceding the war, many factions within the halls of government were torn between support for and against the abolition of slavery, with some more radicals going as far as creating organizations that sought to divide the state in two north-south halves, although this never came to fruition. 
New Leeds was popular battleground during the civil war, with its legend solidified in the Siege of Scarborough - a famous military siege spearheaded by Confederate Major Hobart Crawley.
Following the Civil War, the state of New Leeds prospered and grew as a major hub on the Culver River for business in the 20th century. In the 21st century, New Leeds became a hub for internet companies such as Empire Connect.
