The Empire State

The Empire States is made up of what was once the states of New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. More than any other nation the Empire States have gained the status as the continent's leading political power and chief trading center. The Empire States chief rival is the ISA to the east, though it might be shifting with recent raids from the south by the Confederation of Dixie. Another rival oddly enough is a continent away. The Nation of Hollywood is envious of the wealth and prestige of Empire States which has create friction between the two nation and has gone as far as threating embargoes on motion pictures from Hollywood by President LaGuardia.

Life in the Empire States is centered around the four great cities, especially New York City which is often referred to as just "The City". With limited farmland and no where to expand the Empire States have had to imposes strict laws on growth of it's cities. With farmland being protected from industrialization the cities of The Empire States have grown up instead of out creating giant concrete forests.

For entertainment in the Empire States most enjoy listening to the Empire States Broadcasting Network to there favorite shows like "Paladin Blake and the Privateers" or going out to a Broadway show which is often prefered to motion pictures. Though there is a prohabition law it only prevents the importation or manufacturing of Alcohol.
