==Rules==
*Don't do something unbelievable, like invading New Zealand invading Switzerland.
*Please be fair, don't make coalitions against players, or if you do, you shouldn't leave them in the dark.
*In order for wars to be short (in order for not making them World War long), try to make a peace agreement when you can.
*Only one country is allowed per player, and each turn equals to 4 days and 1 year in game time. Any person who doesn't complete their turn will be skipped. If you are skipped three times, you are kicked out of the game.
*Try to be reasonable. You can't annex (with reason of course) areas bigger than Belgium, and you can only occupy an area around the size of Portugal at max (but that will exhaust your army).
*Nukes are allowed, but you shouldn't use them as other countries will attack you.
*As usual, the world alliances/organizations will start to crumble during the starting year.
*Do not edit the page unless you are staff and / or doing your turn.

===2015===
====Mod Events====
*The international organization start to crumble all across the world at the end of the year. The European Union is disbanded (the first to leave it was the UK), NATO also ends, although its still there in America. Problems start to happen between the BRICS members too. Due to other countries dissatisfaction about the UN Security Council, the United Nations also ends. Some treaties, like the Nuclear Treaty still remain.
*Virtual Reality ... having been something of a gimmick in the 1980s, it is now becoming a serious tool for business, leisure, education and training. Much of the content in these 3D environments is user-generated, with online communities for sharing and exchanging virtual objects, buildings, avatars, etc. Among the hardware configurations to emerge is a circular treadmill-like interface, allowing players to move freely and naturally in all directions.
*On 1st January 2015, Lithuania officially adopts the euro as its currency, replacing the litas and becoming the 19th Eurozone country. The euro had previously been expected to replace the litas in 2007, but the economic crisis and persistent high inflation – reaching 11% in October 2008, well above the acceptable limit of 4.2% – delayed Lithuania's adoption. In July 2014, the Council of the European Union agreed that Lithuania met its entry criteria and would be allowed to adopt the euro as its currency. As the European Union splits, the litas needs to be readopted along with other countries' old currencies, like the franc, lira, marc, etc.
*Despite indications of recovery, the global economy remains in a fragile state. While growth is strongest in developing countries, it is still slower than during the pre-crisis period. A cautious attitude and ongoing aversion to risk mean that business confidence is tepid – especially in the EU, which has borne the brunt of this disruption. There is continued political and social unrest in the southern European countries of Portugal, Italy, Greece and Spain, where debt continues to spiral. US is showing signs of recovery, China is growing as a superpower in the global economy. Other states are starting to enter the opportunity for global supremacy from the Great Recession, mainly Chile, Israel, Mexico, South Korea and Turkey. Who are capable of growing into superpowers if time plays them right.
*On 10th September 2015, Elizabeth II becomes the longest reigning monarch in British history – surpassing the record held by Victoria, her great-great grandmother. Having ascended to the throne on 6th February 1952, Elizabeth II has now reigned for 63 years and 217 days.
*Solar Impulse is a Swiss long-range solar-powered aircraft project, led by Swiss psychiatrist and aeronaut Bertrand Piccard (who co-piloted the first balloon to circle the world non-stop) and Swiss businessman André Borschberg. In 2015, they aim to achieve the first circumnavigation of the Earth by a piloted fixed-wing aircraft using only solar power.
*The first phase of Masdar City – a $22 billion eco-project – is completed in 2015. This huge development is located outside of Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates. Entirely pre-planned and self-contained, it is the world's first carbon neutral, zero waste and fully sustainable city. A multitude of green technologies are utilised – including the largest solar power plant in the Middle East, rooftop photovoltaics, wind farms, geothermal sources and a hydrogen power plant. The city's water needs are fulfilled by a solar-powered desalination plant. There are extensive recycling systems too.
*The first in a new generation of US aircraft carriers is launched this year. The Gerald R. Ford-class replaces the aging Nimitz-class which has been in service since 1975. This new class of ship includes some major improvements over previous generations. These include: increased automation, electromagnetic aircraft launch systems to replace previous steam mechanisms, increased stealth, a new type of nuclear reactor for more efficient power consumption, high tech radar and flight control, as well as the ability to carry the new F-35 Lightning II fighter jet. Ten carriers are commissioned in total, at a cost of $14bn each (including research and development). The 10th and final ship is launched by 2040.
====NPC Moves====
*Islamic State in Syria: Despite the airstrikes conducted by multiple countries, the IS keeps advancing in Syria, and even worse, the Syrian government is focusing in destroying the last remaining moderate rebels instead of fighting IS. As for the Kurds, they manage to resist against IS's expansion, however, by the end of the year, the IS launches a full-scale attack on the Kurd city of Kobanî, starting the Second Siege of Kobanî.
*Islamic State in Iraq: In the other hand, the IS is getting weaker and weaker in Iraq due to coordinated attacks from Iraqi and Kurdish forces. Most of the IS militants in Iraq have either fleed to Syria or retreated to Mosul.
*Islamic State in Libya:  The IS captures the city of Derna and manages to keep control of it aftee some clashes with other Islamist groups and the Libyan government. After this overhelming victory, the IS starts to expand into Cyrenaica.
*Turkey: As Erdogan sees the total chaos that Syria has become, he secretly prepares a full-scale intervention for the next year, with the real objective being the full annexation of Syria, using the excuse of fighting IS. Thousands of troops are recuited for the operation. The code name of the entire operation is "Operation Aleppo".
*Iran:  As NATO and UN cease to exist, the Iranian government decides to take advantage of it by invading the small nation of Kuwait in order to "secure their nuclear program", Saudi Arabia sends a warning to Iran, however they know they can't really beat Iran with NATO out of the global scenario and the Gulf Cooperation Council disbanded, so instead of trying to liberate Kuwait they impose sanctions on Iran and they call the international community to do the same. Israel,  in the other hand, demands Iran to stop their conquest or they will take extreme measures. Iran ignores the warning and annexes Kuwait 1 month after the invasion.
*Donetsk, Luhansk: As the EU and NATO is gone, the chance of them being attacked once again by Ukraine or a coalition is smaller, and because of that, Donetsk and Luhansk join Russia.
*Belarus: With the pressurizing factors gone, Belarus is planning to join Russia next year, as the Union State is still intact.
*Brazil: As the world is now in chaos, Brazil plans to expand in South America. They plan to attack Uruguay next year.
*Bosnia & Herczegovina: The nation falls apart and the two/three parts join Serbia and Croatia.

*India: India accepts Japan's alliance offer, they also start an expansion campaign by invading Sri Lanka, Colombo is taken within a few weeks. Tensions with Pakistan increase.
*Pakistan: Since the Indian-Japanese alliance represents a serious threat, Pakistan tries to increase their relations with Iran and an alliance to counter India is made, even a plan for dividing Afghanistan in some years is made. An alliance with the PRC is also requested.
*Colombia: Tensions with Venezuela skyrocket as border skirmishes become more and more common ... Colombia request Brazilian aid if war with Venezuela breaks out.
*Bolivia: Bolivia declares war on Chile because of territorial claims, Peru supports them.
*Ethiopia/Abyssinia: The Ethiopian president, Mulatu Teshome declares himself King of Abyssinia and he also renames the country to just Abyssinia. The King promotes nationalism and massive recruitment programs begin. On December 7th, Ethiopian soldiers and trucks cross the border into Eritrea, with the objective of taking Eritrea's capital city, Asmara.
*West Africa: The Ebola outbreak officially ends in Late 2015 after dozens of thousands of people died, Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea start to recuperate slowly.
*South Africa: Without the UN, South Africa can finally get rid of the small country of Lesotho. South Africa strikes the weak Kingdom in November 13th and it was quickly annexed.
*Swaziland: After South Africa's aggressive annexation of Lesotho, Swaziland decides to join Mozambique peacefully (keeping autonomy) because they prefer being part of Mozambique than being annexed by South Africa.
====Player Events====
*Italy
**Military: Going out on a conquest of Croatia and Slovenia for Istria, probably a historical Italian region in the past is now a priority but they decide to invade them for Dalmatia, Istria and half of Slovenia and turn the rest of Slovenia and Croatia to Slavonia, a purposed puppet state of Italy. Seeing that NATO collapsed, they can finally re-expand their empire once again by performing a war. Other than that, they increase the number of reserves and active soldiers to strengthen the numbers against the weak forces of them. The HQs are divided to Trieste HQ, Rome HQ and Syracuse HQ.
***Summary in military (starting off Italy's military with the website globalfirepower.com being used as main source and altered slightly over time with some slight additions and modifications):
****Italy:
*****Land forces: 394,000 active soldiers, 586 tanks, 300 anti-tanks, 92 artillery
*****Navy forces: 2 aircraft carriers, 14 frigates, 4 destroyers, 5 battleships, 10 submarines, 20 corvettes and 4 navy transport.
*****Air forces (estimate): ~100 fighters, ~125 bombers, 90 air transport and 70 helicopters.
*****Other: 80,000 reserve.
**Diplomacy:
***Germany: Accepts an alliance.
***France: Wants to buy Nice for 1.5 billion euros and its surrounding lands for better usage.
***Monaco: Asks Monaco if they want to join Italy. They will have equal rights as Italy does but have a high degree of autonomy, meaning less rebellions will exist and offer 500 million euros if they accept. All citizens will be given citizenship without taking tests or anything when they accept as well.
***Ireland: Accepts trade proposal
**Intervention against Islamic State: They are currently sending out airstrikes to target IS militants in Syria to aid Kurds but not Assad's regime since they are tyrannical. They can't do anything in Libya and they seem to be heading for Benghazi one said. But they began launching an operation to annex Tripolitana and Cyrenaica as colonies but using IS as the target so basically waiting is the only choice, with IS taking over North Libya, we can swoop in and annex North Libya but it will be a huge secret
**Economy: Doing well because it is a developed country but wars would stop the growth immediately. Their ultimate goal is to make their economy strong enough, paying off loans and have a sanction or embargo proofed nation but so far they can't do anything to do so than acquiring territories for later uses. They began slowly reintroducing Lira.
**Wars and Conflicts:
***War against Croatia and Slovenia: Many troops are deployed in June and took over Istria in just 2 months. The Slovenian front is invaded by Trieste HQ and its army and took 4 months to capture half of Slovenia and probably Ljubjana. Casualties: Italy is ~7000 and Slovenia and Croatia ~12000
**Technology and Science: Still like TF:C, they go on a biological focus and genetic engineering. And for TFR, military. So basically they go both
*The United States of America: 
President Obama decides in early 2015 to change the American military to a more organized and powerful structure. Set to be complete next year, the system has four parts: Navy, Air Force, Armored, and Army. The Navy has 10 aircraft carriers, 121 destroyers and other combat/transport/supply ships (I checked on wikipedia), and 73 submarines. The navy is split into 3 parts. Four carriers, 37 subs, and 54 destroyers become The US Atlantic Navy, or USAN for short: 1 carrier, 12 subs, and 23 battleships are sent to the Mediterranean, and the rest are sent to the Pacific Fleet. During the journey, each ship will be rearmed with new turrets and radar in order to have the ability to find sinking boats and enemy vessels. The UNAC (US Air Corps) is also founded. The USAC has about 6,650 military planes, including bombers, fighter jets, and transports. Obama agrees on a new fighter jet to be developed. The jet, called a Hydra Fighter Jet, or HFJ for short, is a jet that has a hover mode, advanced missiles and sonar radar to destroy infantry and mech. The USAD (US Armored Division) is massively reduced due to the huge number of tanks that were not needed. The number of main battle tanks is now at 6,400. A new light armored waterproof tank is made. This tank is called the LAT (Light Armored Tank), and is able to move faster than the tanks with light armor. Both the MBTs and LATs are upgraded with the advanced sonar and new missiles that can do massive damages to enemy positions. The US Army has 1.4 million active soldiers, with a further 900,000 in reserve. The infantry is completely redone. The army will be divided into 14 separate divisions of 100,000 men. The armor is upgraded with a Mopp 2 Armor plate, able to withstand 2 shots, and is lightweight. The back has a pocket in which a day's provisions can be stored. Helmets are also reworked into a less bulky design, allowing more maneuvering in the corps. The newest assault rifle, called the X-1, is given to the army. The rifle is accurate and parts can be switched, allowing for snipers and shock troops to have the same weapon. A new type of ammunition, called the USA1, shatters on impact and fries the insides of the target. Congress decides to move American corporations such as Apple and Nike back to the United States. Apple becomes based in California and Hawaii, while Nike moves to the territory of Puerto Rico and Louisiana. All property in America owned by Chinese corporations are kicked out. The economy begins to improve faster due to these actions. Obama decides to make each state create food and a certain resource. For example, California will supply wheat and mechanics. Texas would supply oil and weapons. This would create an organized economy, and the plan is implemented in late 2015. The United States, in May, declares total war against both the Assad regime of Syria and ISIS, declaring support for the Free Syrian Army. The Mediterranean Navy blockades the Syrian coast, effectively halting any Syrian naval attack. The US 5th Division lands in western Syria. The numbers are in favor of Syria, with 110,000 soldiers,900 planes, and 4,500 tanks, while the US has 100,000 soldiers and 478 MBT, 156 LAT, 26 ships, and 1,700 planes. However, Syrian equipment is outdated and rusty. During the early stages of the war, the US Army struggles to hold against countless Syrian attacks. In early November, a Syrian Free Army force of 30,000 arrives and helps the Americans defeat Assad's army of 60,000. The Syrians retreat to Damascus, Aleppo, and the Golan Heights. With Syria gone, IS manages to take over most of the northeast, while new Syrian warlord states declare independence. The Free Syrian Army declares a new state called the Republic of Syria. Bashur, the first president, asks US engineers to make a capital on the western coast. Engineers comply and begin making a refuge camp, temporary government buildings, and a military base, along with an airstrip. About 60,000 refuges find shelter while food is shipped from the states. A new oil well is found 10 miles north of the city, allowing for cheaper prices back home. The United States begins to equip the Syrian Army with X-1s and MBTs. The US army decides to guard the coastline while Syrian troops march towards Aleppo and take the city on Christmas. A death count is created by the UN. It is estimated that 12,000 US troops, 62,000 Syrian Arab Troops, 37,000 Free Syrian troops, 4,000 IS troops, 22,000 Warlord Troops, and 267,000 civilians, most from Turkish raids and bombings. The USA requests an alliance with Britain, the Republic of Syria, Japan, and Australia.
* Japan
* Government: The governor of Japan made Japan a dictatorship by getting rid of the royal family and banning other parties. But even the members of the party are kicked out and replaced by advisors so the advisors don't make problem of having lower political power and are more trustworthy then the ex-party members. Despite all of these things he's not a bad leader because he started some serious reforms in the country to make a happier and less stressful population. These reforms are: glorifying big families over work (but working and studying stays an important part of the society just with much fewer working hours, fewer stress, more school vacation and students go to school only 5 times a week instead of 6) and they encourage children to go out and have fun outside instead of sitting at the computer whole day and discouraging peoples from suicide by making them believe it's okay to do mistakes sometimes and they can't bring shame to their ancestors only themselves also giving them self esteem. And all these messages gets to them both by school and by animes which were bribed by the state. Also, Japan started to work on an environment program to make the whole country oil free using only renewable energies (especially solar energy, biofuel and hydropower). Also, Japan started a big dam building program to stop easier the upcoming tsunamis. And to pay off all these programmes the country took all major Japanese companies in state ownership. But despite the nationalization foreign companies can still invest in the country and the state owned Japanese companies can invest in other countries too also the productivity of the companies are still depends from the needs of the world market not state plans.

* Military:Japan starts to spend heavily on its military to prepare for the invasion of both Koreas.Preparation finishes in July 16th so invasion starts in July 17th and by the end of the year Japan captures most of the countries and kept them under blockade since the beginning of the invasion. Also Japan started a secret cyber soldier program but it will take a few years to finish it.
* Economy: The country spend a lot on social programs environment and military but they can pay them off due to the country's great economy and state owned Japanese companies
Brazil: Economy, infrastructure and military improve. Population continues to grow stabilize slow, after reaching the population rate at over 200 million. Continue building a series of fighters, bombers and tanks on military factories. Continues to plan new reforms and continues investing heavily in technology and science.
While cities continues to grow fast, rural areas becomes heavily populated and must do something building cities in another way. During a meeting between Brazil's largest contraction building company and Brazilian government in capital city Brasília, a new policy named Metro Populated Cities Underground becomes active in Brazil's plans to build a better future. Most of Medium-density houses in largest cities are destroyed, while the people living on former houses are now living in residential camps, powered by Brazilian government. Then poor workers and workers from China and India begun to dig down areas where buildings are destroyed this year and starts building skyscrapers underground. Project would take two or four years to complete this.
Brazil begins building alternative forms of energy plants such as Solar plants on homes' roofs and wind farms on hills, jungles and farms. Brazil also shut down and destroys many coal, gas and oil plants in order to eliminates pollution in Brazil and in world.

====Mod Events====
* In early 2016, Panama Canal's Expansion construction is finally completed and the new gates are open for transit. Capacity has now been doubled, allowing the canal as a whole to handle the projected rise in volume to 2025 and beyond. This mega-project eases numerous burdens on the shipping industry, as well as creating huge numbers of jobs among the Panamanian people – generating enough wealth to reduce poverty in the country by almost 30%. However, critics of the project contend that there are serious environmental issues.
* This year sees Russian space group, Energiya, launching the world's first space hotel in partnership with US firm Orbital Technologies. Capable of housing up to seven people, it offers spectacular views of the Earth and includes a menu crafted by celebrity chefs. It also functions as a possible emergency refuge for astronauts from the International Space Station. (This is real btw)
* More than 100 years after the ill-fated voyage of RMS Titanic, an exact replica is built and launched by the Australian billionaire Clive Palmer. The boat sails from China – where it is constructed – to Southampton in England ahead of her maiden passenger journey to New York. Guests include leading U.S. business figures, who are treated to a dinner from the same menu as Titanic passengers on the day it sank. Titanic II is completed by next year in Australia.
* i5K is a five year project to sequence the genomes of 5000 insect and related arthropod species.*It aims to identify the vulnerable regions of insect DNA, which could then be targeted with pesticides and other treatments. This could reduce the $50 billion spent globally each year to control the many diseases transmitted by insects.
* A new method of IVF which involves the creation of babies with three parents has been introduced in the UK
* India becomes only the fourth nation – after Russia, the US and China – to independently launch humans into space. The rocket used is a variant of the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle Mark 2, operated by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). This carries a largely autonomous 3-ton capsule, with a two-person crew on board. They remain in orbit around the Earth at 248 miles (400 km) altitude for seven days, before splashing down in the Bay of Bengal. The total cost of the project is about 124 billion rupees ($2.67 billion USD).

The Spanish Minister of Army suggests to attack Portugal and return the democracy to that land. The Parliament agrees and the Spanish Army crosses the border and invades Portugal.
A week later, the war is declared and Braga and Lisbon is bombed by the Spanish Air Forces and the Navy.
For August, the Spanish troops have occupied a big part of the south and the city of Porto in the north. For November the Spanish Navy blocks Lisbon, while the Army gets near there.
As the war has been slow, the Spanish economy is reduced, but that won't become a worry to the Spanish Government due to the economy recovering quickly.
The Army calls for more men to the lines and 25,000 men and women join the army.
Brazil: Economy, infrastructure and military improve. Population continues to grow stabilize slow. Continue building a series of fighters, bombers and tanks on military factories. Continues to plan new reforms and continues investing heavily in technology and science. Continues building underground houses, shops, factories and offices in all cities with 100,000 citizens living here.

The secret cyber soldier program that they started in 2015 is expected to be finished by 2020 and those robots planned to be much faster and more resistant to bullets and anything else used in warfare than humans (they won't be fully resistant just somewhat more resistant except for biological weapons which they will be fully resistant to).
* Government: Japan fully abolished death penalty but the government also decided to make prisons more inhumane and de facto turning them into concentration camps (it's not like in Nazi Germany the Japanese government only uses them for criminals and they gas nobody just wait for them to die out in the terrible conditions). Japanese prisoners are used for doing hard physical works like making railways and mining with a low amount of food and they're treated so terribly they can't get a doctor if they have health problems. Also, Japanese children are taught how to use weapons. In the Korean Peninsula Japan started to integrate Korean minorities to be Japanese. It goes easily on the ex North Korean lands because under Japanese annexation they have more freedom and higher standard of life. But on the ex South Korea it goes much harder due to the fact they already had high standard of living and more freedom than Japan. But the Japanese government keeps trying to integrate them by not letting them speak or write in Korean in offices,work and school and they cannot have a leading post in anything or just a decent job. They're also warned about if they're dare to protest they will be shot.

* By this date, the countries of Iceland, Macedonia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Albania and Serbia have all joined the ranks of the EU member nations (if it still exists). This follows several years of negotiations in order to bring these countries in line with the rest of the Union, in terms of economics and law.
* At the turn of the 21st century, Yemen was already the poorest and least developed nation in the Arab world. Nearly 45% of its citizens were living below the poverty line, unemployment was running at 35% and its literacy rate was just 58%. It had dwindling natural resources and a ballooning population. Its economy was heavily reliant on hydrocarbons, which accounted for almost 75% of government revenues and 90% of foreign exchange earnings.
* The original M1 battle tank – a third generation vehicle – was introduced to the U.S. Army in 1980. Since then, variants of the tank, primarily the M1A1 and M1A2, have seen extensive use in battle. They first entered combat in Operation: Desert Storm, during the Persian Gulf War, and have been used in every American military conflict since. They have also become the principal tank of the Saudi Arabian, Egyptian, Kuwaiti and Australian armies, as well as the Army of Iraq following arms deals made with the United States.
* Newspapers will become obsolete in various countries after this point.
* HIV/AIDS was first characterised in 1983. By the early 2010s, the virus had killed over 35 million people globally and another 34 million were living with the infection. Although a cure remained elusive, anti-retroviral treatments were able to slow the progression of the disease and provide sufferers with a near-normal life expectancy. However, while anti-retroviral treatments reduced the risk of death, these medications were expensive and often associated with side effects.
* The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is a space telescope intended to search for extrasolar planets using the transit method. It is part of NASA's long-running "Explorer" program which has been going since 1958 and involves working with a variety of other institutions and businesses. In this case, the $200m project is led by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, with seed funding from Google.
* In the United States, TESS (a Satellite) will identify several thousand Earth-sized and larger exoplanets, adding to the already huge tally from Kepler. Many of these candidate worlds are later investigated by the James Webb Telescope and other future missions which enable more detailed analysis of their masses, sizes, densities, orbits and atmospheres. In this same year, Europe launches its own similar mission – the Cheops satellite.
* By now, China has merged nine of its cities into one, creating the largest metropolitan area on the planet. This new megacity has a population of 42 million – over 7 million greater than Tokyo, the previous record holder. The city is located outside of Hong Kong.

Italy
*Government: A new president is elected under the name Luigi (because lazy on existing names). He declares a reformation to the government and promises to not invade France like the previous president wanted to. However, the reforms of the government is making Luigi himself more of a dictator and spurred controversy across Italy.

*Wars:
**ISIS: They land on Benghazi, occupying half of the city and began moving and sending troops into Derna. Since IS troops are nearly poorly trained, the Italian troops suffer less damage but IS has better strategy than the generals currently in the Libyan front. Libya was able to take their land back in Central Sahara. Casualties: ISIS: 9,000 and Italy: 5,000
*Puppets, Vassals and Colonies:
**Slavonia (unsure): Does nothing but increase their military and helping Italy in their wars, also they have a limited capacity for their armed forces to prevent strong armies rebelling but it determines the population.
*Science and Technology: They get slightly better in genetic engineering and military technology everyday and computers were slightly stronger when built here. The genetic engineering group plans to regenerate skin through manipulating but that seems to be a theory for now.
*Religion: The Eastern Orthodox believers were slowly converted to Roman Catholicism to increase unity but atheism rose among the Christian population and the Muslim population grew by 0.4% due to past migrant crisis and conversions. However factors slow down the growing Muslim population, due to suspected Church acts against them.
*Economy: Because the Americans had expelled the non-American companies, they decide to expel all of them as well. Though their economy is slowing down because of this and the military spending is also peaking.

Japan
Government:To solve the dispute over the Kuril islands with Russia Japan proposes this:
Although the solution seems like this would be better for Japan it's actually better for Russia because this way Russia could get more islands than Japan (mostly minor islands which aren't shown on the map) and they would have more territorial sea too.
Japan mostly focuses on economy and military.Japan also decided to fight back against Yakuza and other mafias. The government is so determined about this that they give military equipment to the police (except tanks and aircraft) and let them use chemical weapons also (except if there are civilians, too). Due to these new methods both foreign and local mafias going out of the country (yakuza is a harder case but they loosing power in the country too).
Economy: Due to the war on mafias the public safety became much better which attracts more tourists in the country making the country somewhat richer
Diplomacy: As an answer to the USA for kicking out Japanese companies Japan does the same with American ones but wishes to maintain the alliance with them.
The United States of America: On January 3rd, it is revealed by the CIA that Clinton had rigged the votes and bribed numerous corporations. Donald Trump, as the person with the next highest votes, is inaugurated as president. Trump's first moves as president result in a treaty sent to Japan allowing Japanese corporations in the US, but 20% of their income must be given to the federal government. Canadian, Australian, and British companies will also be allowed. The USA creates the GDF (Global Defense Forces) and invites Argentina, Japan, Australia, India, Israel, Syria, Turkey, France, Britain, and Germany. The goal of the GDF is to be a new UN, with aid sent to Africa. Trump decides to set up a US base for African refuges near the continent. During Spain's war with Portugal, a US marine squadron occupied the Azores. The United States creates refuge camps on the islands, and about 20,000 people arrive in the first year. Back home, another police shooting of an Asian gets Congress' attention. It is made a law to have police tests for racism, and the Police crack down on drug use and gangs in the United States. The US is estimated to be crime-free by 2019. On March 6th, NASA launches the USSO (United States Space Outpost), and the ISS is open for buying at 700 billion dollars. USSO has living space for 120 people for 30 years, exercising, a lab, and military cameras used to find terrorists worldwide. In August, Mexican raiders attack the American side of Mexicali, and a US force of 260 men pursue the Mexicans about 20 miles inland before being gunned down by Mexican troops. Trump orders that Mexico gives 100 billion in reparations to California's state government and families of the dead. With no response, Congress agrees to war. The Second Mexican-American War begins on August 13th, 2017. The US military immediately launches the American war plan called War Plan F. Five US divisions of 100,000 men launch five pincer movements into Mexico. One is to secure Baja California, on to take Hermosillo, one to seize Chihuahua, one to seize Monterrey, and one to march down the eastern Mexican coast. US bombings also take effect on the population, leveling numerous buildings in Mexico City. The navy blockades the Mexican coast, and food shortages occur in the country. By December, US troops have reached Monterrey, Chihuahua, and half of Baja California is occupied. The East Coast offensive is about the same distance from the border as Monterrey, and the advance towards Hermosillo is still within 15 miles of the border. About 16,000 American soldiers are dead, 147 US civilians, 24,000 Mexican soldiers, and 50,639 Mexican citizens. The year ends with a party at Congress celebrating the 51st state.
