Legal Nation Name:
Unified Territories of America
What Areas Do You Control:
California, Utah, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Montana, Wyoming, the Baja Peninsula, and Colorado
Flag or Banner:
Political Party:
The American Reunification Party currently holds power in the UTA, and is led by Commander In Chief Richard MacEoin.
Type of Government:
Military Dictatorship.
Military:
The UTA military is, of course, controlled by Norton. Each of the four branches (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines) is led by an appointed "Branch Chief". The Branch Chiefs are as follows:
Army: Christopher Huerta
Navy: Richard Ančjo
Air Force: Yuuki Sora
Marine Corps: Yeong Suk
The total active combat personnel number for the UTA Armed Forces is approx. 862 thousand. Most of these personnel are in either the Army or the Marines (Approx. 400,000 and 62,000 respectively). The Navy has approx. 200,000, while the Air Force is matched perfectly at 200,000. The Marine Corps is the smallest due to the UTA's policy of American reunification, which keeps it out of overseas wars. In fact, there has been talk of simply merging the Army and Marine Corps into a single branch as the two are more or less treated as one entity already.
The Army and Marine Corps make extensive use of "Soft Exosuits", which are a derivative of the cutting-edge power armors that are beginning to make their way into the world's armies. Unlike such power armor, Soft Exosuits offer no extra protection. They do, however, greatly increase the carrying capacity and mobility of soldiers. These exosuits are nowhere near as rare as powered armor, and are standard issue in the UTA. Powered Armor is being developed, and prototypes are in field testing already. Even so, some in the military hierarchy believe that the focus should be on improving the soft exosuits instead of introducing powered armor.
Ground vehicle design hasn't changed much since before WWIII, though new technology has been implemented. Artillery designs utilize railguns, which allow the shells to have a higher explosive capacity and an adjustable velocity. These railguns have nowhere near the destructive power of naval ones, however, and have much smaller ranges. Tanks still utilize traditional propulsion methods, however, as the power requirements for railguns have yet to be reduced to such a range.
The Navy of the UTA is disproportionately large to its military doctrine, having inherited the old USA Pacific Fleet and it's five aircraft carriers. Alongside these behemoths are 10 Cruisers, 20 Destroyers, and 15 Littoral II Combat Ships. Naval weaponry is where the technology of the late USA truly shows its potential. Lasers are widely deployed, as are high-power railguns. However, nothing has changed since WWIII. The railguns might be powerful and long-range, but there hasn't been a single upgrade for anything but carrier-launched planes since the UTA was formed. As the plans for reunification go forward, however, new designs are being drawn up in preparation for combat with the navies of the other American successor states.
Last but not least is the Air Force, which works extremely closely with the Army. It extensively utilizes drone technology, though for the most part only in ground attack aircraft. Fighters tend to be manned for quicker response time, as well as the prevailing belief that pilots will fight better if their lives are actually in danger. The UTAF also controls the nuclear weapons formerly stationed by the USA in UTA territory. This has never been officially disclosed, and no weapons have ever been tested due to fear of igniting a war. However, their possession of such weapons could easily be inferred due to the fact that they are a successor state of one of the recognized nuclear powers of the pre-WWIII world.
Productions:
Aerospace products, information technology, natural gas, and high-tech military products.
History of the Nation (Easy Pz):
Main Race:
68% of European descent, 10% of African descent, 20% of Asian descent, 2% Other (Native North/South American, Pacific Islander, Alaskan Native, etc).
Main Religion:
The UTA is mostly Christian, which is split into Protestant and Catholic sections far more equally than it's neighbor nations due to its large population of Hispanics/Latinos. Atheism and Agnosticism are also more popular than in neighboring countries, and the secular Government pushes a policy of religious tolerance.
