== Plot ==
A collapse of the United States brings each state to a fearful state. All states are now countries, and all counties are now states. Many states, including New York and Pennsylvania hate the breakup and unite with other states to become bigger. New York becomes Torista, and Pennsylvania becomes the Reunited States of America (RSA). Tensions between the two countries rise when these events occur.
In Canada, the same thing has happened as well. Canada has collapsed into its own provinces and territories, bringing each of them to a state of fear. They are all countries. However, Nunavut, following an agreement with Quebec, splits into four more countries, including themselves: Baffin, Arctica, Elinis, and Nunavut. The agreement also stated that Nunavut should get Labrador from Newfoundland & Labrador. Labrador never knew this, but was alerted of this agreement after the breakup of Nunavut, which spiked anger in the government. Labrador declared war on Nunavut because of this. Nunavut, however, was not ready for this, and therefore asked Quebec to help them out in the war. Newfoundland & Labrador was defeated, and Labrador was taken from them. Now, Newfoundland & Labrador was now Newfoundland.
Back in the United States, North Dakota and South Dakota united to become Dakota to prevent themselves from collapsing due to economical issues or poor government. As North Dakota was on the brink of this already, they united to keep these issues away. Wyoming and Mississippi collapse due to bankruptcy. Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Nebraska, Dakota, and Montana earn land in Wyoming, while unclaimed land is taken over by Cheyak. Alabama takes Mississippi, and becomes Greater Alabama.
Finally, RSA and Torista can't take each other anymore, and declared war upon one other. They fight each other, but the RSA overpowers Torista, and the RSA won the war. The RSA annexed Torista. They take the war very seriously, and become greedy for land. They declare war on Ontario and Quebec. However, they are easily overpowered, and they are invaded. They call a ceasefire to try and prevent from making anymore damage. The war causes riots in the RSA, in Philadelphia, New York City, and Boston. Eventually, these riots are calmed down, and the president is ejected. A new president comes along, and the people like him. The RSA stops randomly invading according to the government.
