New Frengland

**New Frengland** (French: *Nouvelle-Frangleterre*) is the wealthiest country in the world, encompassing most of the Eastern seaboard of the southern half of North America and, therefore, many vital trade nodes between the Eastern and Western Hemispheres.

## History

New Frengland was once a colony of Frengland, considered an essential foothold in North America. However, as the colony quickly became more prosperous than the long-struggling Frengland, they rebelled and easily won their freedom.

However, during the Southern War, declared by two factions within the country against the government due to the actions of President Reginald Krumpus, New Frengland lost control of most of its land to Novada and Floriduh. While it has mended relations with Floriduh, it remains in constant conflict with Novada and President George W. Tree.

New Frengland faced many tumultuous years under President William Groomberg, who presided over several years of anti-environmental politics and pro-Groomberg L.P. corporatism. Groomberg also removed term limits for himself and himself only, making him President for several years. He was also accused of rigging every election by bribing voters with his amassed wealth, which, according to him, was gotten "thanks to the great people of New Frengland placing their confidence in me to manage all of their money."

During the events following MPSP2023, Groomberg lost re-election to Aniala Enonurb. Enonurb, the owner, manager, supplier, cashier, restocker, and janitor of Enonurb Knick-Knacks and Stuffs in Prowire, Old-New Hamphampshireshire, has no political experience whatsoever and, according to her campaign team, barely even knew how most of the government functioned. Despite this, New Frenglish voters were tired of Groombergist policies and voted 77.7% to 22.2% in favour of Enonurb, allowing her to win the Electoral University; independent write-in candidate Joe Knowsalotaboutmoneyden received 0.1% of votes.

After being sworn in, Enonurb was forced into a meeting with Canadian Governor General Keith de Silvia-Legault, who allegedly barged into her office by evading all of the security put in place and demanded that they get a picture of the two shaking hands to say that they could say that they got to "chat with another head of state." Rumours then arose that Enonurb actually originates from Canada and may not be eligible to be President according to the New Frenglish Constitution.

## Geography

The country primarily consists of large urban centres, most surrounded by wealthy suburbs. Forest and green spaces have largely been wiped out under the urbanization movement of President William Groomberg.

## Government

The President of New Frengland is considered the head of state, chief executive, and Commander-in-Chief. The President oversees the cabinet.

The President cooperates with Congress, a bicameral legislative body, to pass legislation. The President may veto any legislation that is passed by Congress. However, Congress may override that veto if it has unanimous consent from all members.

## Economy

Major mega-corporations and their many branches dominate the New Frenglish economy. A significant portion of economic activity is simply investment and banking, which has led many critics to refer to the country as "an economy that made itself rich by moving money around so many times that people lost track."

## Culture

Hockey and Baseball are dominant cultural institutions in New Frengland, with government holidays recognizing the World Series and the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

## Relations with Canada

New Frengland and Canada are considered the closest allies of any two countries in the world.

In a shocking turn of events during MPSP20, Alex Verret, then Government House Leader of the Young M.U.F.F.I.N. government, was elected President of New Frengland in an election he did not enter in before immediately being ejected from the post for having served in a foreign legislature, as reported by the National Roast.

The current Canadian Ambassador to New Frengland is Andre Roy, who is considered a hero in New Frengland due to allegations that he poisoned the mysterious President of Frengland.
