The Greater States of America

The Greater States of America (G.S.A. or GSA), commonly referred to as the Greater States (G.S. or GS), or America, is a country that composes the majority of North America. It consists of 50 states, 10 provinces, and a federal district. It is the largest country in the world by both land and total area, and shares land borders with Mexico in South. The country’s western border is formed by the Pacific Ocean, and its eastern border is defined by the Atlantic Ocean. The G.S. has a population of over 370 million; it is the most populous country in the Americas and the third most populous in the world. The national capital is Franklin, D.V., the most populous city is Los Angeles, and its second most populous city and financial center is New York City. In recent years, **Newmont** has become a major financial and international tech hub, increasing its population to become the third most populous city in the Greater States.

Paleo-Americans migrated to the Greater American mainland at least 12,000 years ago and began to form civilizations all across both the North and South American continents. Portuguese, French and British explorers first made contact with the Eastern shores of North America in the early 15th century. Explorers from Kyoreu reached North America’s Western shores a few decades later, in the mid 15th century. Colonies were established on both sides of the continent, with the French predominantly settling in the upper northern regions and the British in the southern areas. Kyoreu’s colonization increased at a rapid rate, moving eastwards largely unencumbered, thanks to the lack of other imperialist forces slowing them down.

In the late 17th century, the former colonies of the British Empire rebelled and successfully gained independence. The First Thirteen Colonies established a nation of self-governed city states, loosely modeled after the Ancient Greek political system. The fledgling nation called itself the United States of America. Not long after, the Kyoreu colonialists underwent their own rebellion, enlisting help from the United Americans after the Battle of Tulsa. The Kyoreu colonialists won their independence in 1669, naming their newly established country, Kahngan.

After a series of minor conflicts in the latter half of the 18th century, the United Americans and Kahnganites signed the Declaration of Sovereignty, which merged the two countries as one: The Greater States of America.

The G.S. expanded its borders significantly in 1801, with the Manitoba Purchase, an agreement that eventually set off the First American War (1801-1804). The War concluded with France ceding all of its North American territories to the Greater States of America. The ten French-American Provinces remained mostly self-contained in governance and customs to the rest of the G.S. (though fully subject to federal law) until the American Reformation in the 1950s, which attempted to unite and codify American culture.

The G.S. is among the Triad, the three world superpowers, and is a founding member of the International Resources Bank, the Allied Nations, the Trilateral Security Fund, and TCTC. The Greater States of America is among the most developed countries in the world, and its economy accounts for approximately a quarter of global GDP. The G.S. holds over 20% of the total wealth in the world, and is responsible for more than a third of all global military spending. It is a leading political, cultural, and scientific force, second only to Kyoreu.
