The United States of America is a constitutional republic in North America founded in 1776 after declaring independence from the United Kingdom. Several regional disputes have plagued the United States throughout its history. The most prominent of which was that of slavery, which spurred a brief civil war causing the southern states to secede and form the Confederate States of America. Ever since the defeat at the hands of the Confederacy in both the War of Secession and the Second Mexican War, the US has shunned France and the United Kingdom and sought an alliance with the recently-united German Empire. At the outbreak of the Great War, the United States was one of the four primary members of the Central Powers.
By 1941, the US encompassed 34 states and numerous territories including the Sandwich Islands, occupied Canada and the Caribbean territories.

Government and Politics
Throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries, American politics were dominated by the Remembrance ideology. This ideology persisted until the Central Powers victory in the Great War, after which it faded from American politics.
Political Divisions
The two main political parties of the United States are the Democratic Party and the Socialist Party. The Republican Party, shamed after the War of Secession, was reduced to a regional party which rarely won any states.
Parties and Elections
Military
The United States military is comprised of four main branches: the United States Army, United States Navy, United States Marine Corps, and the United States Coast Guard.
Much of the United States military's equipment is either inspired by or directly adopted from German equipment. Most notable the grey-green uniform colors and the Mauser 98-derived Springfield 1903. A rare case of the reversal, however, is the American adoption of the distinct "coal scuttle" helmet in 1916, the research for which was given to Germany to develop the iconic Stahlhelm. This relationship would continue through the Second Great War, with German superbomb research secretly transported to the United States via U-boat.
The US was the first nation to realize the effectiveness of barrels in a mass attack with General George Custer's 1917 offensive, and was the first navy to construct an airplane carrier.
