Divided States Period

The Divided States Period was the period immediately proceeding the Decade's War and immediately before the Greater Decade's War. During this period, the political landscape was much more diverse and complex, with, at the beginning, [TBA] independent nations having complete sovereignty.
The fall of the Ecological Galactic Republic saw many new states carve themselves out of its territory. The new nations had varying strength. Many of them relied on infrastructure developed during the time of the EGR, but some (mostly former puppers) were self-sufficient. Nations like the Empire of Greenland and the German Reich escalated to superpowers overnight. Other nations, such as Italy, France, and the Byzantine Empire, built up their own infrastructure to rival these superpowers. Africa saw a huge rise in power, with Cameroon, Ethiopia, Mali, and Sudan becoming powerhouses united against European aggressors. China was split between the PRC and ROC, with the ROC having a clear advantage. India and Brazil were also rising powers.
The period saw a major decline as Germany expanded across Europe and Greenland expanded across the Americas, respectively. When the wars spread to Africa and Asia, the end of an era was imminent. The period ended when the Nuuk Empire capitulated the last nation besides it and the Weltreich: Tibet. This was shortly followed by a quick arms race and then the Greater Decade's War, as the Nuuk Empire and Weltreich each expanded into Japan.
