ECONOMY
Atlantica’s economy is strong. It is a member nation of the American Northeast Trade Union and freely trades resources with its other member nations. Its big cities, including Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Albany, are centers of finance and light industry, especially in chemicals and engineering. Atlantica is largely dependent on Canada and Foundrya for oil and natural gas, which has led to recent brushes towards acquiring drilling rights both offshore and in other nations such as Colombia and Venezuela. Being in the crossroads of Foundrya, Appalachia, New York, Quebec, Canada and New England, and controlling the Hudson River, Atlantica has risen to a place of prominence in trade. Atlantica controls the Territory of Cancun and its offshore interests. The cost of living is middle-to-high.
OVERVIEW
Atlantica is considered one of the most powerful nations on the continent. Initially containing the former capital of the U.S. and several of its financial centers (including, originally, New York City), Atlantica was for years considered by the international community the strongest successor to the mantle of `America’. It was newly elected first Atlantican President William Scranton (Independent, Pennsylvania) who, in an iconic moment, stood on the approaching tank in the National Mall during the Columbia Coup meant to interrupt the 1981 transition of power. It has maintained a strong international presence, favorable reputation and alliances overseas. During the 1994 Redivision, Atlantica lost significant land (including New York City, half of New Jersey, a third of New York state, two thirds of Pennsylvania, and most of Virginia). Atlantica has mostly enjoyed stable, moderate leadership in the Independence Party. The administration of President Oliver North (Republican, Hudson) pursued an aggressive foreign policy in hopes of solving the oncoming energy crisis, eventually resulting in the disastrous Cancun War with Texico. While the War did result in Atlantica gaining control of a prominent strip of beach in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo, it also resulted in Texico taking over three additional Mexican states and Jamaica. In recent years, President Joseph Biden (Independent, Delaware) has initiated a national healthcare package and a new railroad system, but has come under fire for using eminent domain to reclaim commercial land for agricultural use.
