Great American Federation

The Great American Federation (GAF), is one of the four nations of the that make up the League of Terran Nations after the "Great Exodus" to flee Earth. It is a very diverse nation with all sorts of cultures based on the old American countries and home to various corporations.

History
The Great American Federation was founded during an epic war to fight over the last of Earth's resources. The war escalated to the point that nuclear weapons were used in the War of Alliances that some were shot down in the north pole of Earth. With the planet's magnetosphere disrupted, Earth was plunging close to the sun and to be roasted with everything on it. An emergency plan was made that included the creation of spaceships that were meant to travel to a new habitable planet far from the old Sol System. The Great Exodus was launched in 2093 with many ships carrying thousands of cryopods.

Forty-two fleets traveled across the stars until something went wrong. A gigantic wormhole appeared and drew every ship into it due to its strong gravitational pull that flung all the fleets to different corners of a new galaxy. Six fleets made it to a new solar system in the new galaxy they inhabit. One of the fleets were part of the GAF and made it to a two star system and landed in a habitable world orbiting the second yellow star.

Culture
Despite being a combination of different nations, there is some diversity. The GAF follow some of the guidelines of the United States' Bill of Rights and Constitution. Yet many of the cultures are similar to that of Brazil and the Caribbean nations such as the love for music and dance, regular festivals, and many of the arts with a small hint of Canadian folk dances and USA rock bands.

The people are known to be quite liberal with their freedom and enjoy it very much.

Economy
The GAF is largely well known for the amount of corporations that maintain the economy with new innovations and technological wonders. Many of them include new virtual reality holo-gaming, new spatial mining techniques and devices, new line of space engines and luxury frigates. The GAF boasts the highest GDP growth rates and has the lowest employment...and that's true. Making the Federation the wealthiest nation in the Terran System along with the laissez-fair policy.

The Azure Islands of planet America is also a very luxurious and desirable vacation site in the system.

Politics
The GAF is well known for its tight politics when it comes to internal affairs among the different parties. Just as the people are diverse, so are the opinions of the five main parties. Each party is consist of twenty members which make one-hundred representatives in all.

Democratics
The Democratic Party is rather similar to the one from the United States as well as many others that follow. And just as before, they are based on the liberalism of the people. They also support, workplace safety regulations, equal opportunity, disability rights, racial equality, regulations against environmental pollution after the downfall of Earth, and criminal justice reforms. They dress in red and their symbol is an arctic hare.

Republicans
The Republican Party is a more conservative about the cultures and policies of the GAF. They care about the GAF way of life, humanism, the traditions and values of the many cultures they had before the Great Exodus and ensure everyone's liberties stay the same with no hinges to democracy. Republicans oppose transhumanism despite almost the entire galaxy is full of strange gases and substances as they believe in the preservation of the human genome with the exception of having small augmentation needed for daily life. They wear dark navy blue and their symbol is an American buffalo.

Asintmah
The Asintmah Party is named after the Athabaskan goddess of nature and earth; the first woman on Earth. They are a more ecopolitics (green political) party that focus on the preservation of nature after many ecological downfalls of Earth and make sure that it won't happen again. Like the Republicans, they oppose transhumanism as it is unnatural and since they believe they are the last humans, the human genome should be preserved. They wear green and their symbol is a eucalyptus branch.

Federalist
The Federalist party is comprised of representatives of corporations that insure the rights of the companies aren't impeded. They ensure the government won't interfere with the businesses of the corporations and keep the laissez-fair policy intact. They also ensure the rights of every individual of the government aren't violated by any new laws that pass. The Federalists also support progression and are the more rational and scientific party that are more logical than most. Although they also represent the majority of corporations paying for taxes. They wear yellow and their symbol is a maple leaf.

Patriot
The Patriot party prefer to be in the political center to ensure there aren't any far left-wing or far right-wing movement shifts in power. They keep the balance of power in the senate as they moderate the politics of the GAF while ensuring no political extremes that could cause many unrest. Not only are they politicians, they are also members of the military. They wear white and their symbol is an American bald eagle.

Geography
The GAF has claimed the entire continental planet of America, that is the second planet that orbits the second star, Solaris Novus. Only three continents exist along with 25,000 catalogued islands. The environment is similar to Earth. However, the lifeforms native to America are similar to the ones from Earth yet given a more alien look to them.

In order to keep the majority of the natural environment, large arcological towers were made to preserve the environment.

The Flag
When the GAF was founded, there has been some difficulty making the flag due to politically correct groups keep on complaining on the designs. The GAF went through many different kinds, but the leaders have had enough with the complaints and choose the one currently in use. Many PC groups complained that the Caribbean representation is on the left side, which to them means the Caribbean is in the Pacific, but they "never complained again after a while". It is possible that the PC groups have been silenced or have been disbanded. Whatever the reason, the GAF got their flag.
