NationStates

The drums of war recoil as the cannons roar, and the rifles peel across the land of the free, and the home of the brave. In a surprise maneuver, rouge elements of the U.S Military, headed by Marine Commandant Robert Stull seizes control of the Capital, deposing the federal government in a Coup d'état, and declares a military-run, provisional government to in their words, restore the Republic.

Yet, for many states of the Union, from Massachusetts to Alabama seceded in a frenzy, forming their own independent republics, and even confederacies between the newly formed republics, out of disgust, and an unwillingness to live under the perceived tyranny of the military regime.

It has been weeks since the crisis, and from the ashes form new nations, ready to seek foreign recognition, yet, like the war over 150 years ago, Stull is unwilling to just let them go. As time goes on, border conflicts, small skirmishes and the occasional enfilade takes place as all factions seize their own military installations and recruit members of the former army and beyond, with members of the former outside of Stull's jurisdiction largely deserting to their state government. As war looms closer, this may supersede the American Civil War, the deadliest conflict in US History, and this time, there it is with no end in sight.

Yet, with this no end in sight, Uncle Sam exerts his war cry, for the sons and daughters of Columbia to rise to the occasion, and prove their strength, their resolve, and their composure

If I missed you, tell me.

Reserve President of Massachusetts/New England (Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine, probably Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Vermont soon), obviously, I was VP of New England in the original thing, but the Governor's resigning because he can't support this revolt. Is Virginia gonna be split between you and the Stull dictatorship?

Also, you should probably make an application form.

Reserving Vice President of New England for Alexander Breckenridge.
Following Cross' assumption of the Presidential office, Breckenridge was named Vice President, with his Seat as Secretary of State being filled by Wanda Goodman.

Eberhardt is going to have the West, we can hash out just what later. Trying to think of names, thinking of the cheesy-but-good "Constitutional Republic"
Could also go with "Freedonia", or just "New America"

As I see it.

Maryland, N.C., D.C., Virginia-Stull
Mississipi, Arkansas?-Williams
Alabama, Georgia, S.C.-Taylor
Florida-?
Texas-Lone Star, probably, perhaps Eberhardt
Penn/York/Mass/etc.-Cross/Breckenridge
Dakotas/Nevada/Oklahoma etc-Eberhardt
Arizona/New Mexico-Probably Eberhardt, perhaps Lone Star
California, Washignton, etc.-Probably a Democrat, Finelli
Midwest-the big no man's land. Probably decent support for Stull, Cross perhaps. I see this as likely being taken by a Democrat and made into an attempted neutral state.

You may also have some strife in the Northeast, Maine/Hamp/Vermont etc. could go Democrat.

Bruh. Come on, bruh. It's either New England or the Commonwealth of New England. Also, we'll probably seize all of upstate New York, the rest will be contested.

Breckenridge will convince New York City to join New England instead of becoming independent, which they inevitably would otherwise. They'd much rather have Breckenridge than the False Marine President, thats for sure.

Looks like its dying to have a bible verse written on it.
In other words, I think its good for what you're going for.

Well, there is always this option.



Does the standard version look better with a border? Feels like the Minuteman is sort of hanging, though I suppose that would be better in actual air rather than on a webpage.

Original option with border is my personal choice.

Just did a population check for fun.

Stull-24 (38)
Williams-10.5
Taylor-20
Florida-20
Texas-27.5
Cross/Breckenridge-14.5 (34.5)
Eberhardt-24.5 (33.5)
Finelli-50
Midwest-72

Seems fairly well balanced.

You do not like the vaguely Reich-like one? For shame.

Hey, put me up there in the OP. Call it the "Constitutional Republic" as a placeholder.

Alright, because I do have shit to do, from now on, Prolieum and Neo-Chicago are also the Co-OPs of this RP, feel free to accept apps.

New England flag, shamelessly stolen. Six stars are Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont.

Hey, I actually rather like that.

Got it.

I think that we should hold off on going through until the Democrats show up, and can see this. Notably, Nemov and Finelli are from California and New York, which are big-time heavy hitters.

It looks good to me. We will have to hash out just how much of the surrounding area is theirs. Cross?

Looks good, but we'll definitely have to figure out territory. Maybe the Four Corners states? Depends on what's left.

Possibly problematic. With present states, Eberhardt has him surrounded, so he may just have a big military in a little bit of territory. It depends heavily on what Texas does-if we get a player to take that, they will likely grab Arizona and New Mexico as well.

Ok I have Texas. Shouldn't we be focused on taking out the General instead of forming new countries? Texas is still a state but is emergency power has been given to Kiser.
