Guatemala City, Guatemala
1st May 1960

"Thousands of people gathered at the Guatemala City General Cemetery to say goodbye to the sixth President of Central America, Jonatán Maroto. Maroto was well-known for remodeling the entire Air Force and National Guard while improving the education and health of all Central Americans. A private funeral was held for his family and closest friends yesterday. Nathanael Blackwell, the former Vice President, was sworn in as the seventh President of Central America several hours after Maroto's death. He also met all of the cabin members throughout the day. The inauguration is going to happen in the matter of hours at the National Palace in Guatemala, where President Blackwell will speak to the people from the first time." ~ WIAM-FM

A couple of men listened to the radio while making several protest signs for the inauguration. Thousands of people were clearly against Blackwell, an American, becoming president of the country. Officials from the conservative party expressed heavily disappointed that the courts allowed Blackwell to become the president. While the liberal party cautiously released a statement saying how Blackwell lived in Central America for more than nine years, making him able to run for a government position. Like conservatives, liberals were questioning the decision.

One of the signs had the words: "Blackwell, ¡no eres uno de nosotros!"

"The sign looks good enough." Eustacio Santángel said to the teenager working on the sign, "Don't add anything that will divert our message to the American." Santángel was the president of the Students' Front, a socialist student organization at the University of San Carlos in Guatemala. He became leader of the upcoming protest against Blackwell since he was born in the United States and ran on a pro-capitalist stance during his time as vice president. Santángel looked at the time and whistled to men, who were finishing up with the signs.

"It's time to head to the meeting spot. Don't forget your signs and anything important because we will be outside for hours. Now, if you are ready, let's go."

After a ten minute walk to the meeting area, hundreds of people were already waiting to start the march while dozens were arriving. From parents to the elderly, everyone came to the plaza to send a message to President Blackwell. Santángel's group began to get ready to march when he saw one of his closest friends near the fountain and approached him. José Sanz was the journalist that recently published an opinion piece that called Blackwell 'the bastard president.' The nickname became popular in the matter of days after the article was published.

"Sanz, I thought you went back to Belize City?" Santángel greeted his friend with a question.

"I couldn't miss this massive protest before I return home. It's better to see something in personal than hear it over the radio. Plus, it gives something for my next article." Sanz responded to his friend's question while he finished up writing notes about the protesters.

"Well, almost everything is better than listening to the radio." Santángel reached into his pocket for a box of cigarette and offered one to Sanz. He laughed.

"No thank you. I have been smoke free for three months." Sanz proudly stated while his friends rolled his eyes and muttered something to himself. Santángel lit the cigarette, inhaled it, and then exhaled. "Your lost." he said.

As soon as he said that, some of the marchers heard that the inauguration had begun from the radios and began to march. Soon enough, everyone else began their march towards the palace while shouting their message to the president. Santángel noticed that the march was getting started and quickly asked Sanz if he wanted to join his group. He nodded and followed Santángel back to his group while he was finishing up his cigarette. Once they arrived at the group's location, Santángel looked around and dropped the cigarette to the ground. Then, he stepped on several times as he grabbed his sign.

"Alright, people. Let's march."




National Palace
1st May 1960

President Nathanael Blackwell read the speech one last time before his name was called as the music was playing. He knew that it the people aren't unhappy with him becoming president since he was an America. And despite telling people that he was raised in Central America, many still believed that Blackwell is an American puppet. The spokesperson clarified several times that he hasn't have any contacts with any blood relatives and government officials in the United States. Sadly, it hasn't stopped people from trying.

Once La Granadera (the country's national anthem) began to play, Blackwell knew that it was time. Time to face the people of Central America and convince the people that he will defend them from international threats. He gave his paper to one of the waiters and waited for his name to be announced. When he heard his name, the double doors were opened by the honor guard and Blackwell began walking towards the podium. He heard the crowd cheering and applauding while he shook some hands of government and military officials. Finally, he approached the podium and tapped on the microphone to see if it worked before he started his speech.

"My fellow citizens of this great nation, before I begin my speech, we need to have a moment of silence for President Jonatán Maroto." Blackwell waited a minute before continuing with his speech, "I am grateful and honor to be the President of this great nation. Even known I wasn't born here, I am a Central American. My parents and I left behind the United States during their civil war from Central America. Guatemala City was our new home and my father used his knowledge as a farmer to work at a banana farm. The American Dream failed my father and many other Americans; however, Central America allowed him a chance to rebuild. It was the reason why I decided to pursue for a position in the government. So I have a chance to help those who are still suffering from the economic depression of the thirties."

"Sadly, there are those who are accusing me of being an American puppet or a spy. I want to make it clear: I am not working from the United States. I understand that you are worried about a foreigner being your leader. But, I have been a citizen since the forties and I have proven that I would protect this country again and again. I don't know what more I can than to promise you all this. I will bring prosperity, wealth, and protection to Central America for the next generation. And when my time in office ends, I hope that you at least respect me from achieving those three goals. Thank you and God bless the Federation!"

The crowd erupted in applause when he finished his speech. As Blackwell waved at the crowd, he saw the protester in the background with their signs while shouting something inaudible. The police were doing their job and tried to calm the protesters. After waving for a few seconds, Blackwell left to head back inside the palace to begin working on the future of Central America.
Well, the good news is that I have been working on the post. The bad news is I don't know if I should include the president's inauguration speech or just time skip and mention parts of it. Regardless, I am almost done with the introduction post as Central America.

EDIT: Hell, you could of just looked at the unfinished post at my stash lel
I was working on it until the Overwatch Halloween Event began, lel. Other than, I have been working on it now that I have made the time.

By the way, you said that you will give us the discord link once we post on the IC? Right?

Federation of Central America

Central America.

History
While Europe was still fighting each other, Central America was planning reunification of El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Costa Rica. Nicaragua eventually joined the Federation of Central America when it was formed in 1922. Panama later joined and Belize was annexed once the British lost control of the area in 1930. Their infrastructure and industry was in terrible shape compared to North America and the government knew that they needed to fix it. Starting in 1925, the Federation introduced a bill that the former capital cities of Central America were guarantee improves in health, education, and industry. It was signed and enacted in 1928, a few months before the economic depression happened. When it did hit the region, everyone was affected.

The Federation's two biggest exports (bananas and coffee) wasn't enough to deal with the depression head on. People were getting tired of living in poor conditions and being without jobs. And in 1932, things looked bad for the Federation and it was nearly complete collapse from the young nation. However, the election of 1932 told another story for the region. President Héctor Pinto won the majority of the popular and electoral votes in the Election of 1932. President Pinto got people to work by signing a series of public work projects for the country (most of them dealt with the already poor infrastructure).

The projects managed to keep the peace for a while until President Pinto established the Central America Reconstruction Administration (CARA). The CARA was created to establish long term economic stability in Central America since they were considered to be the poorest in the Americas. While civil war was inevitably coming to the United States of America, the Federation of Central America was slowly getting used to the depression in 1937. President Pinto was elected for a second term and began to shift focus to the coffee and banana industry. Before Pinto's second term ended in 1941, he made the factories and farms more efficient in producing Central America's most important exports.

Jonatán Franco was when elected the third President of Central America in 1941. President Franco kept on using Pinto's ideas for several months until it was clear that the depression was ending. Then, he shifted his focus on the military. Even known he only served for one term, Franco began to upgrade both the army and navy with better weapons and vehicles of the time. Afterwards, Central America was slowly improving everything from the forties to the fifties.

President Jonatán Maroto, a former lawyer who was elected at the age of sixty-six, died in his sleep on April 20th 1960. As a result, the Vice President was elected President a few days after Maroto's death. Nathanael Blackwell was the first American to be elected as the Vice President and the President of Central America. His family originally came to Central America to escape the civil war in the United States like many other Americans. Maroto knew that he needed the American voters to win the election of 1957, resulting in Nathanael becoming his running mate.

Now many Central Americans are questioning the upcoming Blackwell administration. Will he stick to Maroto's plans or will he set his own up instead?
