I think Aaron is taking issue with the fact you're essentially trying to recreate the United States in an RP that is about the aftermath of its breakup. If you made a nation that encompassed two or three states, it wouldn't be so much of a problem but you're trying to claim a large number of states AND say they're economically powerful AND militarily powerful. Everyone else within the former USA is trying to tell a good story while it seems (judging by your application) as if you're trying to recreate the US to steamroll over everyone else, as well as leaving potential new players out. If you want my advice, it would be a good idea to keep the "remake the old USA" idea but centre it on a much smaller area (say, 2-4 states as opposed to 13).

I could see a possible small border conflict or diplomatic solution occurring due to the situation of the world.

Seeing as you and [@Chairman Stein] are the fellow Asian players, I'd like to ask about the current situation in the Phillipines and Korea. Are they American/Chinese? Are they independent? Are they a republic? I feel like setting up a good canon will help with constructing my posts.

Oh and I'm okay with you claiming all the old Japanese colonies (Shenyang, Dailian, Taiwan) but IC, Japan is going to claim Taiwan, Korea and all the other former colonies are "Occupied Territory" and probably will try to retake them in the future.
