So the idea is that the Republic of South Carolina would be an NPC I guess. Gives a decent enough NPC for the other countries around it to use.

[b]History:[/b]

The Democratic Nation of Jackson is among the newest states in the Shattered Union. It is only ten years old and founded by the man known as Andrew Jackson McCullough. His backstory is shrouded in myth, with some saying he is a former Neo-Con general that deserted his men in Georgia, while others think he is a disgraced apostle of the equally mysterious Patriot. 

Andrew Jackson McCullough was said to have destroyed a raider camp on the banks of the Mississippi single-handily. It was on the ashes of that camp that the Nation was born. Taking in rejects, outsiders, and even the odd runaway slave turned the small community into a patchwork nation that keeps to itself and trades with merchants on the river. It is surrounded on all sides by the unfriendly wilds, raiders, and wild beasts. Further through the wilds are the much larger nations that may have designs on Jackson and its spot on the Mississippi. Despite all the hardships, the Nation survives. 

[b]Military Numbers:[/b] 200 to maybe 250, and it is made up of all the able-bodied men and woman who can fight.

[b]Military Units:[/b] The Jackson's military service is the Democratic Party, a militia group made up of those that can and are willing to serve. The Party is split into several different sub-units and platoons.
