The following would have to be mine, in the order of which intrigue/get at me most.
1.) The Allied States Of America - From Jericho
Why? Well, I'm a Southern Californian, and therefore, am a Westron American, not that it's something to proud of really (it is, but it isn't, so whatever). IRL, I love the Union and would never forsake her in mind and heart any day. But in Jericho, where most of the entire half of the American West secedes from the country to form the Alliance, that kind of excites me. Imagine. A Second War Between The States. This time, not North and South, but rather, East and West. Like, "There's Major Whats-His-Face standing like an iron wall - rally behind the Californians!", sounds pretty epic if the 'Stars And Rails' (what I call the AS flag) was ever going to be flown for a real nation.
2.) The Federal Republic Of Erusea - From Ace Combat 04
The antagonist nation from the storyline of one of the first combat flight arcade simulator games I ever played in my 14-year old life, Erusea, is one that I also like. Even though they're mainly portrayed as the bad guys, they are really just a desperate and embittered people willing to do anything to gain retribution for what the Ulysses asteroid did to them and their peoples. Plus, the game cutscenes give a very somber and human grace to the character of Yellow 13, the Erusean ace pilot heading the legendary Yellow Squadron. Apart from that, they controlled the Stonehenge Turret Network (some awfully gargantuan ring of low-radiation intercontinental railguns) and Megalith (a heavily armored ballistic missile fortress), which were pretty cool indeed.
