Prolog: The Foundations of Conflict
In 1787, because of the Ambitions of Virginia, the Constitutional Convention failed. Both the NewJersey Plan and the Conneticut comprimise were denied approval by Virginia, feeling they left to much power in the hands of the Central government. The Revolution had brought many changes. The untimely death of Thomas Jefferson during a comute from Richmond to Philidelphia has lessened the drive for Unity. Because of the actions of Virginia, holding almost a 1/3 of the population of the colonies, would divert America down a path of violence and Chaos. Territorial conflicts between the colonies will lead to war and bloodshed. Some states can survive this, others cannot. The Leading states in power are Virginia, Pennsylvania, and New York. Other states will have to make alliances. North and South Carolina reunite to Form the Republic of Carolina. Mass(and by proxy, Maine), Conneticut, and Rhode Island form the NewEngland Confederation. Other states form close relationships but no official alliances such as Pennsylevania and NewJersey, or that of Virginia, Maryland, and Deleware. New Hampshire was invited to be in the NEC(New England Confederation) but declined. Georgia became Isolated from the rest of the states. It formed close ties with the nations of Europe. The government remained as it was under Great Britain. The Head of state still referred to himself as Lord Govenor. The mass exodus of Loyalists from the other colonies opened up new opprotunities for Georgia. The Lord Govenor opened their borders to the Loyalists, which will lead them to future conflicts.
