Aasamisag (Ozhibii'igan: Asamisúḱ), officially the Confederacy of Aasamisag and historically known as the Barrier State, is a country in the Great Lakes region of North America, bordering Canada, Louisiana, and the United States of America. Covering more than 300,000 square miles, Aasamisag is flanked by the Ohio and Mississippi river valleys, and encircles the Great Lakes. Ruled as a confederation of numerous tribes, mainly of Anishinaabe ethnicity, the Confederacy is highly decentralised and traditional in its system of government.
Formed in the 1790s at the behest of the United Kingdom, the Confederacy was originally intended as a buffer state between the British areas of North America and the newly-formed United States. In the 19th century, Aasamisag began to take on its own identity, defending its territorial possessions in the Franco-Aasamisagong War of 1816 and forming a close alliance with Mexico. The Confederacy stayed neutral during World War I but sided with the allies during World War II. After the post-war falling-out between the European Confederation and the Soviet Union, Aasamisag opted to stay neutral. Today, Aasamisag is considered to be a Middle Power, somewhat prominent on a regional level but mostly "average" in terms of international influence. It remains militarily neutral, and has largely stayed out of the ongoing Cold War.
