JUNE 2ND, 1944: SOUTH REBELS WITH AID FROM ITALY

The Southern United States, former United States, have risen up in rebellion. The rebellion is said to have been months in the making. With our recent gains in Italy, Dictator Mussolini has armed the Confederates in an attempt to draw our Armed Forces out of Italy and back to the USA to put down the rebellion. The rebelling states, Texas, Oklahoma, Kentucky, Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Arkansas, Missouri, Louisiana, New Mexico, and Arizona, have all declared independence and have formed the old Confederate States of America (albeit some new states) and declared Richmond their Capital. Faced with the country split in half, it seems that for Franklin Roosevelt, history may be repeating itself. But the President seemed un-fazed when asked what he would do about the situation. He said this, "This is a modern era, we are not barbarians like we were in 1861. We shall reason with the Confederates and see their side of the story. Remember that we are all Americans. Whether it is Confederate or United." The President has yet to say what will be done about about the Italians and Mussolini, including our troops there. He also mentioned something about postponing an invasion of the French coast. He said that had no matter. May God Bless America, or America's.

In other news, the Germans have made large progress in slowing the Soviet advance due to huge troop transfers from France......

I would think the Germans and Soviets would sign a treaty of some sort due to a stalemate, and the Americans, well, that's up to you.
