United States government

The **United States government** is a democratic republic designed to oversee, run, protect and serve the United States of America and its inclusive states. It is led by a President, a position currently filled by Paul Weisinger.

## History

The United States government was formed, presumably decades ago, as an overseeing group for the United States of America. A President is elected every 4 years to lead the government. They also created multiple branches, including A.R.G.U.S., the United States Army and the United States Air Force. They also began licensing other businesses such as Ferris Aircraft, LexCorp and Wayne Enterprise in contracts to manufacture equipment and vehicles for their use. In 2016, Paul Weisinger was elected as the 45th President of the United States.

### Starro Siege (2020)

When A.R.G.U.S. was alerted to an incoming unidentified object, the government ordered their branches to be on high alert, ordering the agency and their military to eliminate the object if it came into their atmosphere. When it was later revealed to be an alien invader, the government ordered the Air Force to launch an attack, led by Colonel Steve Trevor, Jr.. General Sam Lane, Director Amanda Waller and several other military leader assembled to devise a strategy to effectively stop the siege. They called on Lex Luthor for ideas and were urged to simply leave it to the "real powerful people". The President refused to hide in a bunker and instead remained adamant that a full-force attack would work. When it didn't, seven heroes came to defeat the attacker, resulting in a victory that the government failed to achieve. They were forced to recognise their efforts but warned them to not interfere in their affairs.
