(Based on the book, NOT the movie. Meaning no cures or vaccines, only fighting the dead)

2012
The world has seen its first international peace since 1816. No country in the world is at war. However, the black market is flourishing, with illegal organ harvesting and smuggling rampant in second and third-world countries.

Deep within China, evil lurks. A virus has spread among local communities. Now, world peace is under threat by a new enemy that can wipe out human civilization...

Non-mutated Virus Info:
Spreads through physical contact (I.e, Bites)
Bats are the only animal that can spread the virus
Originates in China
Virus: Quasi-Stellar Star Civilizations

I might join as the American Federation. Long story, but basically:

Teddy Roosevelt wins in 1912
Hoover finally wins in 1928 as an alternative to a progressive hegemony
Fails.
Huey Long wins the 1932 election, with Vice President Hiram Johnson.
After Vice President Johnson’s death in 1941, and the US’ involvement in WWII, Hubert H. Humphrey is VP.
Humphrey wins the 1952 election after Long retires.
Civil rights, democratic socialism blah, blah.
Cold War goes on for longer, forcing the Pan-American nations into the American Federation, the Europeans and friends into the Union of Free Nations, and everyone else into the African Union and Eurasian Conglomeration.

Accepted, but Europe, Africa, Asia, and South America are left open for other people. (As in, no African Union or Eurasian Conglomeration)

Now, would I be able to be in this in North America, specifically New England?

If yes, the story goes as
New England wins war of independence
New England wins again surprisingly
The Rockefellers take over

And that is it.

We were born in Germany and France During a Revolution of the HRE in which we fought back against them in familiar terrain, beating them and still keeping our sovereignty, but we have the same history as germany and France combined.

The diversion is the winning of the Indo-Pakistani War of 1947–1948 by India.
With this victory India receives eastern Pakistan, (modern day Bangladesh). During the late 60s India signs a pact with USSR for protection against China. This stops any further aggression between China and India. Because of this deed the Indian government became more and more left wing. It culminated in the storming of the voting house in 1993 it caused chaos for the next 4 years. Finally the Socialist Republic of India. It now is the 3rd largest economy in the world, and is an economic hub of the Indian Ocean.

Since I am in the region of Southern Italy, guess I will be Italy, as that is the IRL nation where Cannonio is. A difference however is that the monarchy stays, even though it is a figurehead now. This also makes it more patriotic and nationalist as they have a long-lasting symbol to look towards. This makes Italy enter a period of rapid advancement during the 1960s and 70s, and becomes a rival in power to the UK and France. However, it has to stay peaceful otherwise nuclear will will begin as an escalation happens. During the 1990s, it helped out the Croatians and Bosnians in the Yugoslav war in exchange for a bit of islands on the coast. There have been a few attempted assassinations of the King by nationalists, but if that happens, there will be an heir that takes his/her place.

Novaya Equestria: Novayan Commonwealth
Brief history: The Novayan Commonwealth is a nation in Asia. Located on the Novayan archipelago in Southeast Asia, Novaya is a federal parliamentary semi-constitutional republic under a hereditary military dictatorship led by the Grand Marshal, the resulting legacy of the German Empire colonizing the Novayan archipelago, whose people willingly allowed the Germans to take it over after winning the Novayan Revolutionary War in 1891 against the Spanish.

1521: Spanish colonization of the Novayan archipelago
1891: Novayan Revolutionary War, German colonization of the Novayan archipelago
1918: American colonization of the Novayan archipelago, joint German-American colonization of the Novayan archipelago
1946: Independence of Novaya


Additional Stuffs on Novaya if World War Z is taken into account:
I. Novaya had established the first five colonial settlements in Antarctica after Operation Highjump due to fears of a nuclear war but also due to a zombie apocalypse. Each started out small (each having 100 or 1,000) before they develop. Transportation were dog sleds and snowmobiles, the latter of which were either electric vehicles or green vehicles.
II. Novaya is one of the only few nations that are smart enough to know what is going on and how to actually act on it. They have the brains, they have the guts, they have the sheer audacity to always win. Basically, the Novayans are a nation of literal smartasses, unlike some or most nations IRL.
III. Novaya has a small active military force (200,000-300,000) but a large reserve force (1,200,000-1,300,000). Every Novayans were responsible gun owners.
IV. Novaya is a hereditary military dictatorship, though the people hold equal power. So consider it a sort of semi-constitutional stratocratic monarchy.
V. The Novayan archipelago is actually the Philippine archipelago.
VI. Novaya likes and wants to colonize space.
VII. Novaya might become the new home of the Chalcedonian Church, historically the state church of the Roman Empire before the Great Schism. It's composed of the Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant sects.

RP Nation: think Costa Rica and Panama joined together in one country, also possessing the Galapagos Archipelago.

Basically, after Costa Rica's separation from the Federal Republic of Central America in 1841, it remained interested in joining Panama. Although, it was not until 1903, when Panama became independent from Colombia that they finally became a single nation. Later on, with support of the US, they bought the Galapagos off Ecuador to build a military base, but the plans were scrapped and it simply remained as it is today.
