Senator Gaël Germany
At2mNnx.png

Gaël Germany (born February 25, 1971) is an American politician who has served as junior United States senator from New Belgium since 2010 and as U.S. representative for Ouisconsin's 4th district from 2004 to 2010. He is also a former professional footballer who plays for Neuenburg Eagles FC and a player the American national team. While he is in politics, he had fostered a relationship with the Social Democrats as a member even he left in 2014 after he departed over factional disputes between communardist faction and the combined progressives and centrist factions including president Kirsten Gillibrand that strained his relationship during the failed leadership bid.

As an advocate of social democratic, communard, and syndicalist policies, Germany known for support of syndicalist and technodemocracy. On the domestic side, he calls for constitutional reforms that implements secured e-voting, full secularism, empowering trade unions and labor rights by calling to appoint leaders and activists into politics, strict economic regulations, plebiscitarian democracy, and also advocates for the next Constitutional Convention which he outlined with the creation of three chambers comprising expert-dominated branch and A.I., pursues internationalist foreign policy by promoting the ideology and manifestos, and also ultra-secular but he praised elements of Secularity of the U.S. constitution and extreme strict protections of human and civil rights. Some commentators described his policies as aligned with the policies of Roosevelt, Suarez, Rockefeller, Hefner, and currently Gillibrand but most have described it also as 'successor to Danielan mentality' and communard populism which the Gaelism was named notable for his outlined manifestos.

Germany attended University of Chicago/Neuerstadt before graduating in 1993. While a student, he was the staunch supporter of late-president Danielan Suarez policies and successful policies which provided millions with upgraded education before entering sports career in 1993, where he became infamously popular as he finished off the battle during the historical match in FIFA World Cup in 1994 where the United States faced against the Soviet Union in the final match. After retiring in 1998 to pursue his political career, he married Miyabi Shiori of Japanese pop singer until in 2006 and successfully run as a mayor of Neuenburg which he marks his important policies that transformed the near-declining city into a popular city as it was based on his policies which he made up of experts including urban planners and architects that remarkably made his model on urban issues applied to other cities around the world. He won the election to the U.S. House of Representatives in 2004, representing Ousconsin's 4th district which includes the city itself, later co-founding Congressional Progressives and Workerist Caucus. He served as U.S. Representative for six years before elected as a senator from his home state. He was elected to the Senate and re-elected in 2016.

Germany was a major candidate for the Social Democratic leadership election in 2011 but although his expectations fell short as New Amsterdam mayor Kirsten Gillibrand sidelined and defeated him but his campaign have brought changes that slowly propelled the grassroots enthusiasm and small donors. In 2014, his controversial manifestos led to immense backlash from large sections of progressive and centrist factions within his party that Gillibrand have threatened to suspend his party's membership, in a move, he quickly left the party and joined with progressives, grassroot activists, trade unionists, communardists, and advocates to found the Workers and Socialists in May 2014. His bid to presidency have fell short also as low expectations and intense criticism from right-wing politicians including Ted Cruz, Stephen Harper, Candice Owens, Dick Cheney, and others as well as centrists from both Democratic-Republican and Social Democratic but despite that, he continues his campaign for calling to reform and hold new constitutional convention.

City of Covington-Newport
Crossposting from MotF: 228

The colonies of Virginia is never united with Pennsylvania due to continued Dutch presence which banded with other southern colonies into loyal ones even with the aftermath of the formation of the United States that led to tensions between the both countries for the control of lands north of Ohio River where the Americans have more concerned with the growing British/English encroachment into the Great Lakes as the British had more concerned about growing population of German Laurentenlander, the Anglo-American (New Englander and Columbian), Franco-Americans, and the Amerikaner (Dutch American) attempting to encroach into native lands especially lands south to the Ohio River has led to Anglo-American Disputes of 1790 which is shortly cut-off with the independence of the Commonwealth of Virginia, leading up to the War of 1812 where planter-led republic engaged with violent conflict with the Americans until the Peace of Toledo that defines the Ohio River as border between the U.S. and Virginia.

In response to growing population of Losantiville, Covington has merged with neighboring towns including Newport to utilize industrial revolution but although the immigration started in 1843 to counteract with the growing numbers of factories in the American counterpart. Germans, Irish, and the British had settled on the opposite as it opposed to French, Dutch, Spanish, Catholic Germans, and Italians on the north.

By the year 1900, the city has been grown to over 101k people due to immigration and growing competition with the northern counterpart which led to growth of aviation manufacturing industry as number of aircraft manufacturers has set up its large factories and headquarters in this city, followed by steel industry that led to accumulating wealth which is making up of large economic gains that soon slowly climbing into top cities in the entire North American continent by 1942.

At the end of 1950s where the country is experiencing liberalization with the city becoming main center for growing active civil rights movement and unionization movement that became much more stronger where nonwhite employees are demanding for fair wages but in the end, the corporates have acknowledge to refuse to demands issued by trade unions before things turned into ugly with ever-increasing hotbeds of violent political extremist activity where both left-wing and right-wing militants are shown up to engage with violent fights as battle for civil rights becomes turbulent until the very-violent Weeks of Lead that became a root cause for Walker-led coup d'état and his rise to power that led to ensuring decline despite his attempts to reinvigorate and diversify the city has failed.

By the dawn of the 21st century, the population slowly starts to rebound despite all main industries are slowly moving away from this place while the crime rates soars up high which led to tales of murders, massacres, robberies, and then attempted robbery inside the stores have accelerating the city losing its great importance and by 2005 the city has become more irrelevant until the 2007-2008 Industry 4.0. recession have accelerated the mass exodus, affecting most inhabitants as they are more experiencing big brunt of suffering under the hands of criminals and gangs including planned budget cuts for funding to police and fire department has caused tremendous impact that citizens are angry under reckless and incompetent mayor that almost nearly put this city on very tough times and by this point, there are stories of deadly major fires that engulf neighborhoods while a minor fire that completely puts the abandoned office building into dust.

For citizens of this city, there are grim realities that they faced: the rich and sometimes middle class who are upset over proposed budget cuts are forced to flee northward into Losantiville that became heavily guarded by border patrol or they choose to relocate to West Covington and Devou Park with gated communities and private security companies and police showing up following the 2017-2018 anarchy riots that led to sometimes, sizeable police force to restore order in an attempt to stabilize the desolated and hopeless city while the lower class and other middle class have faced the big brunt at the hands of criminals including gangs and drug cartel where they are experiencing horrifying stories of how their neighbors went missing or killed or telling about how the luxurious things or vehicles stolen by thugs, it is very hard for them to live in this city where there are no police force to control order, that they formed its own citizens defense force and community groups in another time to fight back.

Will this city's rising crime have forced Manchin or new president of Virginia to deal with this?
 
Second International War/Terran Wars of 1914-1918
Xb0XgR2.png
Second International War or Terran Wars of 1914-1918 (Great War) (as noted and called by the general including those from outside the planet) was the global war that lasted from 13 May 1914 to 14 December 1918. Contemporaneously known as the Great War or Weltkrieg or "the war to end all wars" where it led to mobilization of over 79 million people which includes 61 million Europeans, making it one of the largest wars in the history of the planet. It is also one of the deadliest conflicts in history with an estimated 14.2 million combatant deaths with overall 9 million civilian deaths as a direct result of the war, while resulting genocides and the related 1917-1918 Winter Flu pandemic caused another 75-120 million deaths worldwide, including 2.40 million Winter Flu deaths in Europe, 3.03 million deaths in South America and the Insular Atlantic, and overall 3.61 million deaths in Asia-Pacific region.

On 13 April 1914, where two Argentine tourists were also detained by Andean border forces which heats up, leading to Pacific Crisis where Argentine has cut off lithium and silver supplies to the Andean Confederation as well as openly support for Chilean separatists while Andean Confederation responded by cutting off gold, copper, zinc, and mineral trade which worsens the crisis and in East Asia, a looming Korean/Joseon succession crisis ensues with the pretender Prince Imperial Ui with strong Ning preference, leading up to Korean Succession Crisis and as the crisis had reached into Europe when the crisis in Balkan goes from hot to breaking point as the Russians have rallied in support of the Byzantine Greeks, Serbs, and the Bulgarians in response to Ottoman ultimatum to abandoned their claims in Rumelia region. By April of 1914, a great powers of Europe and Asia were divided: The Fifth Power Alliance, consisting Germany, Austria-Hungary, Ottoman Empire, Ning's China, and the Andean Confederation. The Quadruple Entente consists of France, Britain, Russia, and Japan while in Italy, it wasn't realized until in 1915 when an Italian nationalist assassinated Austro-Hungarian heir Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Pula, leading to April Crisis. In response, Austria-Hungary issued an ultimatum to Italy on 08 of April. Italy, then refuses to comply and moved into war-footing by joining the Quadruple Entente while issuing ultimatum to Austria-Hungary, demanding to demobilise and withdraw the investigation which the Austria-Hungary refuses. China also sends ultimatum to Russia, demanding withdrawal of troops and drop the support for the independence of Uyghurs and Mongolians while China is also demanded Japan to back down and give power to Prince Ui in Korea. When both Russia and Japan failed to comply, China officially declares war on both on 20 May while the Ottomans, Austro-Hungarians, and the Germans are rallying in support of China; the latter following suit on 25 May when French starts to mobilisation in support of Russia and Japan while also on 30 May, the Andean Confederation mobilises to honor the alliance with the Fifth Power Alliance.

As the war spreads, Germany is initiating strategy for war on two fronts against France and Russia was to rapidly concentrate the bulk of its army in the West to defeat France within 6 weeks, then shifting its forces to the East before Russia could formally mobilise, same as China as the Chinese forces under the bulk of seven million to be concentrated in an effort to force Russia to accept the defeat. On 5 June, Germany demands free passage over the Netherlands, in hopes of achieving quick victory against France. When the Dutch refuses, the Germans have invaded the Dutch Republic, violating neutrality on 30 May, the British then have declared war on Fifth Power Alliance, signaling the opening into Insular Atlantic front and opening intervention. The Ottoman Empire has entered the war on the side of Austria-Hungary, Germany, and China, opening fronts in Balkan (Rumelia), Sinai, and the Mesopotamia where the Persians have also entered the war on the side of Britain and France, thus spread conflict to the Africa and around the globe. The Entente and its allies have became Allied Powers, while the grouping of Austria-Hungary, Andean Confederation, China, Germany, and its allies into Central Powers.

The Germans advance into France was halted at Tillburg in the late 1914 but successfully driven out and the Chinese attempts to drive Russians at Blagoveshchensk in the early 1915 in which in turn the Western Front and the East Asian Front settled into the war of attrition, marked by long series of trench lines that changed little while the Chinese campaign in Korea has led to defeat of Qing Manchuria and provoking the country into civil war that led to deadly battleground while the Chinese had quickly seized its European possessions such as Hong Kong, Macau, and Guangzhouwan. In the Andes, the Andean Confederation has marked by greater success on Tucuman Front. While in parts of Latin America, Grand Para officially entered the war on the side of Central Powers while Willemine-Mauritius declared war after honoring its alliance with the colonial overlord, the Netherlands in hopes of sending troops to assist the Argentine forces on the Andes Front while Brazil declared war on late 1917 which led to Southern Cone Campaign into Southern American Campaign as the battle fronts have completely expanded overnight. The United States initially remained neutral but became important supplier of war material to Allies and Virginia had declared war on Central Powers in the mid-1917, sending countless of troops while both same as important supplier.

Serbia had officially knocked out in the late 1915 while Bulgaria had continued to fight on until the early 1918 when they signed the peace treaty with status quo. The 1917 January Demonstrations has led to harsh crackdown on protesters, further making easier for Central Power forces to drive into the deeper part of Russia where the continuous discontent amid rising cost of war has forced the Emperor Nicholas II to hold the constitutional referendum that led to February Riots wherein the Russia retains monarchy until on October where Bloody Strikes has led to assassination of Nicholas II, leading to March to Alyeska where members of the imperial family has been exiled to the colony while the new convention holds in Patsifistov[1] where the republic is proclaimed, the proclamation of Soviet Socialist Republic in the European parts of Russia, and the signing of Treaty of Frankfurt by the new government, ending Russia's involvement in war while in South America, the Road to Andes offensive begins with hundreds of freshly conscripted soldiers from the general populace plus with additional reinforcement from the Britain and other colonies and dominions as well as Brazilian troops has quickly driven the Andean forces out from Santiago in harsh attrition from the early 1917 until the mid 1918 and continued successful battles has led to War of the Confederation where Chilean separatists had proclaimed the eventual independence and subsequent collapse of Andean Confederation and while the Japanese, spearheaded by the British, French, and Freycinetia has initiated the Jungle Campaign that successfully driven large numbers of Chinese forces out from Indochina while the Japanese had successfully paralyzed the numerous warships in the Battle of Formosa Strait with the battles in the Korean Peninsula was broken by pro-Japanese Sunjong loyalists in the Battle of Hanseong. With its some allies defeated, revolution at home, and others are exhausted, Britain, France, Japanese, and Germans as well as Chinese had signed the Treaty of Berlin and Osaka, ending its fighting.

Second International War was a significant turning point in the political, economic, cultural, and social climate of the planet. The war and its aftermath has led to Great Crisis of 1916-1924. Defeated powers imposed with status quo with smaller but medium territorial and colonial gains plus with light to medium restrictions placed and the Treaty of Osaka has led to compromise but Allied powers have retained its possessions in China and recognized Sunjong as Emperor of Korea but the Russians have also demanded the independence until a pragmatic compromise terms. As a result of war, the Russian Empires has been ceased to exist, creating new states created from their remains while China has been downsizing its territories and a third international war just followed twenty years later.

The Map of Terra in 2020/2021 AD, nearly almost thirty years after the Revolutions of '91 that lead to peaceful but slow transition of Soviet allies including the Bucharest Pact members into full democracy despite difficulties that members such as Romania, Banat, Moravoslovakia, Hungary, and Poland kept the system but takes ten years of transition until the turn of third millennium way back twenty years ago.

United States, Japan, Soviet Union, and the Philippines are the superpowers alongside with France, United Kingdom, Germany, Spain, Italy, Bharat, and reunified China are the great powers but the two are superpowers still declining from centuries of reigning Western dominance that led to decolonization amid recovery from the Third International War as ideological competitions continues to prop up in former colonies that forced superpowers to engage with proxy wars but the intense cooperation, democratization, and stabilization due to colonization of Green Mars and Blue Venus with churning out settlers and descendants of humanity into areas that can populate, similar to what happened to Americas, Siberia, Southern Africa, parts of East Asia, and Oceania way back five centuries ago for explorations and discoveries but now, the offshore mining and extracting minerals from parts of two planets has led to strong resurgence while sometimes indigenous Martian and Venusian immigrants from the two planets immigrated here, brining all aspects of undiscovered and forgotten cultural works and ideas into the ideals of humankind in tense never-ending exchanges since the Columbus Exchange.

Now, but the dawn of the new era has plagued by many problems, threats from the human-settler state, Atarashikibo has now waging wars and extracting resources which later could appear on the homeward's orbit could pose a serious threat while others have feared that 2000 and 2010-2020s great optimism slowly soon chips away from the mainstream discourse as new but sometimes dangerous ideologies can even pop up like neo-Communism, Communardism, Workerism, Libertarianism, Neoclassical Centrism, and then populist but extremist ideologies hasn't seen since almost eighty years such as Disciplinarianism, Restorativism, National Directorianism, and others can pose a very ferocious threat to this Decades of Heyday wherein the American, Western European, Insular Atlantic combined into Pan-Atlantic and Western joins with the Soviet Eurasian/Russian and Japanese in dominating the world culturally as well as decades of long stability and status-quo while other dangers are far closer where colonies are ready to use very plentiful of resources and unknown, abandoned cultural works could be revival but in turn, they would turn against their human masters where the looming threat of Fourth International War is no longer on this planet, it could be the possible Solar Wars or in other, a deadly disease from the two planets could be enough to bypass modern human technology, combined with pre-Deluge Martian technology and early modern Venusian technology can later further await of second Deluge.

It is not yet decided that there will be a hopeful decade or bright future with plans of technological advantages such as FTL and other technologies can able to unlock the secrets to let the people in this Solar System leave for the new homes in other stars or will they wait aliens awaits us to intimidate into submission?

DOMINANT BLOCS:
  • American-Japanese Bloc/Western Bloc (Atlantic Union, Antarctic Ocean Cooperative, and Asia-Pacific Co-Prosperity Sphere):
    Western Bloc is the primary core dominant bloc of this planet, led by Philadelphia and Tokyo which is dominant as New Amsterdam, Osaka, Los Angeles-New Brussels, Paris, Sydney, Madrid, London, Berlin, Shanghai, or Cape Town. This bloc has shared a gigantic share of the planetary economy, civil development, civil rights index, standards of living, and democracy index where the bloc has large numbers of highly educated society, similar to Soviet's Eurasian Economic Union and leading players of Second Age of Discovery and its colonization also centre for immigration and settlement to predominantly human colonies in Mars and Venus as well. This bloc is very close and cooperative to the Soviet's Eurasian Bloc in terms of collaboration and settlement while back home that this bloc is still facing a big and tense stand-off with the Manila-led Global Organization for Cooperation which Manila is using misinformation, religious revivals, and influence in attempt to turn into a big blind eye in distracting them from lecturing on human rights abuses or intimidate hoping to speed up chances of collapse.

    Ideology: Social Democracy, Liberal Democracy, Egalitarianism, Progressivism, Social Liberalism, Centrism, Democratic Communardism, Democratic Socialism, Social Libertarianism, Techocracy, and Internationalism
  • Eurasian Bloc (Eurasian Economic Union and Calcutta Pact):
    Eurasian Bloc is the secondary core dominant bloc of this planet, led by Moscow and much closer and friendly to the Western Bloc/American-Japanese Bloc and it has highly educated and technocratic society, similar to Western Bloc as it became second in terms of civil rights index, civil development index, standards of living, and others because of strengthening of democratic communardism and the ideals of Kosygin, Bogdanov, and others including the ideas of progressivism and in fact, a successor to Invisible War-era Bucharest Pact and its allies. Eurasian bloc is also the second in terms of immigration and settlement to predominantly human colonies in two habitable planets while in the future, there such a possibility when will this bloc might merge with the Western Bloc into single entity that covers most of the entire planet could lead to a unified planet, if possible.

    Ideology: Social Democracy, Eurasianism, Progressivism, Democratic Socialism, Technocracy with Eurasian/Russian characteristics, Indian Socialism, Centrism, Islamic Socialism, and Egalitarianism
  • Tripartite/National Front Bloc:
    Tripartite Bloc is the third dominant bloc of this planet, a former bloc aimed at neutrality and calls for decolonization that joined into the orbit to refrain from joining Western or Soviet Bloc. Now, rebranded as a bloc of mixture of developed, developing, and undeveloped countries with allies and countries within the sphere of influence which consisted of four countries of great powers such as the Philippines, Egypt, Gran Colombia, and Bharat where these four are authoritarian, ultraconservative, and mixed capitalism. In the previous years, this bloc is now becoming more assertive and attempts to expand their influence by influencing other peripheral nations of Terra, indigenous nations of Venus, anarcho-capitalist Hippolyta, Atarashikibo, and allies in grouping with them to counter the powerful Western and Eurasian blocs while energizing ultraconservatism with characteristics whilst attempting to use proxy wars, trade and infrastructure deals, connections with religious organizations, and misinformation to ignite social tensions hoping to weaken the two titan blocs.

    Ideology: Statism, Nationalist Authoritarian Oligarchy, Traditionalism, Totalitarianism State Capitalism, Disciplinarianism, and Internationalism with Nationalist Characteristics

The PoD for the Philippines is the another revolt led by revolutionaries wins the independence through peaceful means in 1876 and became second Asia Tiger due to high economic growth even with the National Progressive had swept into power after the attempted pro-USSR coup d'état which led to formation of National Progressivist state with disciplinarian characteristics but a hybrid theocratic with technocracy which resembled to OTL China in terms of technological level.

What? No, I think northern Vietnam is an independent sovereign state under corporatist Centralist pro-Filipino state and Moluccas is owned following Operation Enduring Ground in 1955 after pro-Soviet coup but also a breed of terrorism activity, similar to OTL Xinjiang.

Um, they literally just said two posts ago that it was too ASB so was removed.
It was originally designated to be the first line of post with the map before revamping but it became too far controversial because I think the Transatlantic Tunnel becomes too ASB and it could have geological implications.
