United Atlantic States of America

The United Atlantic States of America (Acronym: UASA), also known as the United Atlantic States or the Third American Empire, is a third-world country primarily located in North America. It is the failed successor of the Second American Empire and borders the Louisiana Republic, the Canadian Federation on the north, and the Confederate States of America. It only has 18 states and 1 special state. The names of all the states are the District of Columbia, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, New York, Minnesota, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Ohio, Indiana, Vermont, Michigan, Wisconsin and Illinois. It has about 157 million people, becoming the 12th most populated country after Neo-Soviet Leningrad.
The United Atlantic States has its origins after the fall of the Second American Empire, which was already the longest-living state in history. The country's economy rapidly fell to 546 million and caused the empire to be highly weakened. Facility stopped working, and workers started to mutiny, robbing places on the empire. The country fell out of bounds and Canada left its empire, leaving nobody to control everything, and the government was out of control. The country split into 3 small countries with ex-President of the Second American Empire Melvin Calter taking control of the United Atlantic States for 27 years, establishing a dictatorship with him as its centre before his death in 6174. The country was carried on by the presidency of Harold Littleby, who also ruled for 15 years with a dictatorship of himself as the country's centre. Henry Harald, a Norwegian, took over the government and ruled for 12 years, sending peace and gifts to the Confederate States of America; however, it didn't last long. Melvin Calter's great-grand nephew Luke Calter took over the presidency. 
He was also a dictator, too. This messed up the country's economy, as many people begun leaving the United States in term for a better place. 
== Background ==
=== Melvin Calter's Presidency ===
Following the collapse of the Second American Empire, the government of the United Atlantic States was initiated with a new constitution with Melvin Calter being one of the top signers of the Constitution. After the constitution was written, the first election of 6147 took place, about a decade and a half after the collapse of the Second American Empire. Melvin Calter was elected unanimously by the representatives of the country. Since the Republic of New England was independent from the empire, Melvin Calter made the country his puppet state, even putting its own representative. The country also placed its poll on Melvin Carter and the inauguration took place in January 20, 6147. Melvin Carter established a bidecennial-septennial dictatorship with him as its centre.
==== Canadian-American War ====
Although the Canadians and the Americans were on good terms since Mike Pence's meeting with Justin Trudeau until the countries were fully united as one in 2039, the countries were now bitter enemies since the split-up of the Second American Empire. The country also had a dictator, but they were simply as bad as the Americans. Tensions rose between the two since they were not able to communicate peacefully, and Canada started heating. Canada sent spies into the territory and made death threats to the president, starting a war at large. The United Atlantic States finally declared war on the Canadian Federation and sent an army of 1,600,800 troops to attack Canada. However, since Canada was so large, it managed to repel the troops and went on to defeat the United States after being defeated in the Battle of Buffalo. The peace treaty ended with the country surrendering about 0.6% of its land.
==== The Great Shutdown of 6150 ====
In November 6149, the United Atlantic States Congress held a vote to shut down devices for a whole year, including electricity. However, citizens didn't like the idea as their lives were almost close to be removed. One of the priests from the Plymouth Reformed Church wanted to sign a petition with the governor/president of the Republic of New England so they could have the right to rule freely. However, similar to Bloody Sunday, Melvin Calter ordered the puppet state government to shoot at the priests. This increased the tension, but the Republic of New England didn't care. The congress went on with the gadget shutdown and declared everything closed from internet nationwide. This caused more tension, even to the point where Iowa can't hold its horses anymore and joined the Louisiana Republic.
Melvin made a bill consisting of $190 million (6 million in the present) so they could still have water and electricity even if they used all the money to buy a generator. However, many people were broke, and they boycotted the bill, forcing the government to tax them. 
Melvin kept on keeping the money and raised its money higher, to the final bill was already $886 million (27 million in the present). Again, they boycotted the bill. He raised it to $976 million (86 million) which was boycotted, $15.8 billion (145 million), also boycotted and $21.7 billion (166 million), which was also boycotted. The final bidder in February 6150 was $48.36 billion (547 million), which broke every American citizen into their breaking point. They then stormed the government office in Philadelphia with armed guns, leading to a huge riot that caused the entire vicinity of Philadelphia into a war zone. 
Luckily, Melvin Calter left the premises just 1 day before the riots and took a plane to w Hampshire, but after four months of living the army of New England turned against them. The republic split off as a puppet state from the UASA, which led to the country eventually declaring war against the Republic of New England. However, he was too busy controlling the shutdown tax, so he took matters in his situation and shut down every state. This led to widespread reaction, which caused many people to join Abraham Berkley's party. Abraham Berkley is the opponent of Melvin Calter in the 6147 presidential election. On that day when the whole country shut down, many people started rioting to the streets. Many people then started firing armed at many police, and in one event, many people threw a large amount of explosives like 1,000 cans of nitroglycerin, 100 dozen fireworks, 50 million TNT, fourteen dozen TNT crates, 1660 grenades, and all other types of explosives in Times Square, causing a massive super-explosion. The damage blew up 7 million buildings in the vicinity up to a 60-kilometre radius and caused a massive fire that lasted for 7 years. Soon, the armed forces were already on the move, causing a lot of riots. Many people started holding signs reading "Collapse to the dictatorship!" and many states flipped to a different representative as the 6151 United Atlantic States presidential election was close. Melvin Calter was still elected, of course. Things were starting to escalate of the course of 7 years until in 6157, Melvin Calter then disbanded the anti-electric poll, having passed its one-year point over 8 years.
