[[Category:Angevinia]]
'''Angevinia''', officially the '''Angevin Commonwealth''' or the '''Commonwealth of Angevinia''' (Yankee: ''Commonwealth a Angevinia''), is a sovereign nation located in Northeastern Merica. Angevinia is bordered by Erie and the United States Emergency Government to the south, Rontroit to the west, the État Michif to the northwest, and Nunavut and Klaalit Nunaat to the north, though these borders are either maritime or cover parts of the Jamésie-Kativik autonomous agreement. Compared to other nations in Merica, Angevinia is a sizeable ## km2 (### square miles), making it the third largest nation on the continent, after Alaska and Saskatchekhanate. As of 2320, it has a population of around 47.3 million. The country's population centres are spread across the coastlines of the nation, but vast tracks of rural and untouched land still remain, alongside ample nature preserves. It is a Semi-Constitutional Monarchy, self-described as "Integralist with Falangist characteristics." The largest city in the nation is the Enenwoy-New Hahtland urban area, and the capitol is Awlbany. The "Declahration a tha Commonwealth" establishes the state as majority Catholic, but provides protection for religious minorities living within it's borders. It also describes the state as "absolute," with it's sovereignty derived from God and military power.
 
It's borders cover what was, in pre-Collapse terms, New England, parts of the Mid Atlantic and New York Metropolitan area, Québéc and the Maritime Provinces of Canada, Labrador and Newfoundland, Upstate New York, and part of Ontario.
 
Pre-Collapse, Angevinia was inhabited by various Native American and Aboriginal Canadian tribes before being conquered and colonized by primarily British and French settlers. It served as a religious hub for Puritanism in the south and Catholicism in the north. It was the site of many different cultures meeting, including Norse meeting Natives, Western Europeans meeting Natives, and English meeting French. Primarily divided into three (and occasionally four) parts throughout most of it's history, it was generally known as "New England," "Quebec," "The Maritimes," and "Newfoundland and Labrador." The first of these proved to be instrumental in the American revolution, and the remaining three were part of Canada or the British Emprie for most of it's pre-Collapse history. America emerged as a heavily New England-influenced nation during it's beginning, and solidified it's power all over what is now Merica through Manifest destiny. The majority of Canada's population lived in Ontario, Southern Quebec, and the Maritimes, and formed the bulk of importance in Canadian history. During the 1950s and onwards, these regions all experienced vast cultural shifts and changes, and helped form the American Empire and NATO, widely considered by historians to have been the most powerful Empire in human history. Despite this, cultural changes, economic problems, demographic changes, political instability, and climate change would together prove to be too much for the American Empire to handle, and that, mixed with pushes by far left, far right, and anarcho-primitivist extremists, would cause a civil war in the late 2020s and early 2030s, leading to an eventual collapse of American and Canadian society in the 2030s and 2040s. During the Second American Civil War, what is Angevinia generally sided with the unsuccessful Democratic Forces and Antifascist militias, which were methodically wiped out by defecting units of the American military, the Gilead Compact, and various far-right militias. Despite this, the ruin brought to America proved too much for it to recover in time before the Great Collapse in 2049, in which the world was thrown into chaos by the eruption of the Yellowstone Supervolcano at the hands of Kaczynskiist extremists.
 
Following the Great Collapse, the Angevin Commonwealth was founded after various towns and cities in what was the Connecticut River Valley allied with one another around 2100, and elected Karl Kosmaczewski as their first King. Kosmaczewski was, according to numerous sources, a "noted eccentric but good leader," and he sought to create what he considered to be the "American equivalent of Duginism" or "Caesar's Legion." Kosmaczewski pushed to revitalize what he saw as "traditional Northeastern Cultures" and began to methodically bring the rest of New England under his rule, first pushing east and then north, and bringing most of the region fell within Angevin control by 2134 at the time of Karl's death. Afterwards, they also expanded southwards into Deitsch territory, annexing most of what was Pennsylvania and began pushed the push north. In 2221 and into 2222, the Angevin Pahlament, under mounting pressure from the Royal Family and Royalist factions within the government, formed the Angevin Commonwealth, officially adding the other territories of their Kingdom alongside tributaries into one large Empire. The capital city is the historic Awlbany (Albany) and it is home to roughly over 3,350,000 people, making it the third largest city in the Commonwealth. The King is currently Planter John Dogood, the executive head of state. The Head of Pahlament is David Zekara, the appointed head of Pahlament. Pahlament, alongside society in general, is mainly dominated by the monarch-led Angevin Patriot(e) Party, or APP/PAP.
 
Throughout its long history, Angevinia has been a leading global center of culture, reform, tradition, and more, with it making significant contributions to art, science, theology, industry, and philosophy. Angevinia is a great power with significant cultural, economic, military, and political influence. A developed country with the a high standard of living, Angevins enjoy a good quality of life, and the country performs well in international rankings of education, health care, life expectancy, and human development. Angevinia is a member of the Forum for International Dialogue, and was a founding member of the Merican Union, with King Franklin II proposing the idea himself in 2299.
 
 
 
 
==Etymology==
Angevinia, translated, roughly means "land of the Angevins."
 
Angevinia comprises numerous regions, but the superregion known as "Angevinia" is a post-collapse creation that harkens back to reference the Angevin Empire, or the Empire of the Plantagenêts. This was a medieval Norman dynasty that ruled parts of England and France with smaller holdings in Ireland. Due to the shared nature of the medieval dynasty's holdings encompassing peoples of English, French, and Celtic stock, the term "Angevin" was repurposed by those living within territories largely inhabited by those groups in the New World after the collapse. English speaking Yankees, including many of Irish and French descent; French speaking Qadians and Québécois; and Celtic speaking Scoshuns all live within the borders of Angevinia, and seeing a similarity is not hard to find.
 
Since its formation and the cementing of it's status, the Commonwealth is more of a title than an actual meaning. Acting more akin to an Empire in function, the term "Commonwealth" for Angevinia harkens back to the days of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, one of the most populous states in what was America and New England before the Great Collapse. Additionally, the term "Commonwealth" was found favorable due to it's connotations of being more egalitarian for smaller groups in the nation, and most Yankees of Polish descent view the term favorably due to European history as well.
 
While post-Colonial languages of European descent refer to Angevinia directly as a Commonwealth, the official native languages don't do so directly. Two of these languages, Iroquoian and Algonquian, are half-reconstructed languages and were made to be "pan-native" languages depending on their language family. Two other ones, Mi'kmaq and Innu-Inuttitut, are revitalized, already existant native languages. All of these language have extremely complex grammar systems which makes direct translations into Colonial languages difficult. In Iroquoian, Angevinia's official term, rather than "Commonwealth," is "Ganonsyoni Angevinia," which roughly translates to "Angevinia, The Lodge Extended Lengthwise." On the other side of Angevinia, the Algonquian language refers to the nation as the "Angevinia Nutohkemminnit," or "Place of our Angevin Land." While "Nutohkemminnit" originally referred to a now submerged place in eastern Massachusetts, the term has been re-fitted by the Angevin government and the Algonquian people to refer to the country as a whole. The other two native languages refer to Angevinia in a similar way, calling it "Tuggavik Sivuk Angevinia" in Innu, and "Agewinia'gi" in Mi'qmak..

===Languages===
Angevinia has an astounding twelve official languages, with an additional two being used as "lingua Francas" or official government languages for the sake of document keeping. Legally, each of the twelve languages are held in equal regard, though in reality, Yankee English, or "Yankee," is the one most commonly used, spoken by almost all the population in some way, with around 76% of the population speaking Yankee as a primary language at home.
 
Yankee is, technically, a dialect of English. Based on the evolution of the famous pre-Collapse "Bostonian" accent with influences from other nearby regions such as New York City and parts of Canada, Yankee is notable for it's "r-dropping" and changing of -ing noises to -in noises. Whether this evolution was forced by nationalistic and regionalistic political policies, or if it came about naturally is difficult to say. In addition, another language, though widely considered a creole, is Newfie English, usually called just "Newfie." It's a complicated and slang based form of English with a heavy amount of loanwords and grammar structure from European Gaelic languages and now the Scoshun language as well, with occasional influence from Native, French, and Basque too.
 
Additional languages include: Scoshun, which is the evolution of the Scots and Irish Gaelic dialects spoken in Nova Scotia. It is one of the few lively Celtic languages still around, and one of two spoken in the Americas, the other of which is Wladdic in Y Wladfa.
 
The Qadian language is a Francophone language spoken in the rural areas of northern Angevinia, and along the coastline of St. Lawrence fishing villages and those on the coast of the Bay of Fundy. It's close and has a high level of mutual intelligibility with Québécois French, which is the other Francophone language in Angevinia. Québécois French is the second biggest language in Angevinia, with roughly half the total population having some command over the language.
 
The Deitsch language is spoken in the far south of Angevinia, in the Deitsland, mainly by the Amish. It is a Germanic language, much like Yankee, though it is much closer to forms of lower German than forms of English, despite heavy influence from it. The other non-English based Germanic language in Angevinia is Yiddish. Primarily spoken in and around the Enenwoy area and parts of Southern Connecticut and the Capitol region, Angevinia is the last bastion of the Yiddish language and ''Yiddishkeit'' in a linguistic sense after Zion's "re-Hebrewization" policies of the 2130s.
 
In addition to the languages above, which are descended from various Indo-European languages, four of Angevinia's twelve official languages are native or native reconstructions. These are Iroquoian, more found in the west of the nation; and Algonquian, Mi'kmaq, and Innu-Inuttitut, found in the east and northeast. Due to the two languages' original component languages such as Mohawk and Seneca for Iroquoian, and Massachusett and Abenaki for Algonquian being mostly moribund by the time of the Collapse, what little speakers the languages had post-Collapse were put into mandatory linguistic schools by the Angevin government starting in 2154, after various native scholars spent a few years developing each language.

===Religion===
Angevinia is, due to heavy immigration from {{wp|Ireland}}, {{wp|Poland}}, {{wp|Portugal}} and {{wp|Brazil}}, {{wp|Mexico}}, and other countries in the past plus the Qadian and Québécois populations, mainly Catholic as a nation. Noticeable influences from the Protestant-Puritan past are evident, however. Unlike many other nations, Angevinia has clauses that allow for freedom of religion. Religion is heavily regionalized, with most parts of Central and Northern Angevinia being primarily {{wp|Catholic}}, and most Yankee, Francophone, and Native language speakers are Catholic as well. Religious minorities mostly exist in the form of {{wp|Mennonite}} or {{wp|Amish}} Deitsch speakers, primarily located in the the South, {{wp|Orthodox Jews}} that are primarily located in and around Enenwoy and Montréal, and smaller minorities of various {{wp|Protestant}} Sects and {{wp|Wiccans}} exist spread throughout the nation.
 
Prior to the Collapse, today's Angevin territories went through phases of religiosity and atheistic tendencies. Prior to the arrival of European colonists, most of the native populace followed their individual tribal religions, though this changed with the introduction of Christianity. The first Bible published and printed within Angevinia's history was in the now extinct Massachusett language by John Eliot, and was called the {{wp|Eliot Indian Bible}}, or the ''Mamusse Wunneetupanatamwe Up-Biblum God''.
 
Angevinia was originally Protestant, specifically Puritan, in the South. The Northern French-speaking parts were primarily Catholic, though immigration and the slave trade brought small groups of {{wp|Jews}} and {{wp|Muslims}} to other parts of the continent, specifically the {{wp|Thirteen Colonies}}.
 
The hold of religion would wax and wane throughout history, with the First Great Awakening starting in Western Massachusetts and Northern Connecticut. Due to immigration, what was New England spent a long period of time being the most Catholic region in America, by percentage and by amount of practicing Catholics. Afterwards, starting during the middle of the 20th century, the influence of religion in what is now Angevinia slowly lost its grip on society, with most of central Angevinia being upwards of 25% {{wp|atheist}} by the time of the Collapse.
 
The Deitsch community had always maintained a specific set of Mennonite and Amish styled beliefs. After being taken over by the Angevins, much to the surprise of the world, the Deitsch were allowed to maintain their religious autonomy. To this day, even compared to other Christian groups, the Catholic Church in Angevinia, noticeably more conservative than in other nations, manages to maintain a surprisingly productive and positive relationship with the Mennonite churches. Smaller groups of Protestants also existed up in the far northern communities, and the Innu-Inuttitut language has a high amount of German loanwords, brought over by Moravian Presbyters in the 1700s. Most modern non-Mennonite or non-Amish Protestant churches are of the Quaker or Neo-Puritan variety.
 
Most Angevin Jews are located in and around urban areas, though pushes to make rural Jewish life a "thing" in Angevinia has proved successful in recent decades, with around 40% of all Jews living in rural areas. Most of them are either Haredim or Hasidim, though other forms of Judaism exist too. Angevinia is home to the most Hasidic Dynasties in the world outside of Zion itself, with the three biggest native Angevin Hasidic Dynasties being the Tosh (located in Montréal), the Satmar (located in Enenwoy), and the Boston Dynasty (located in Lunenberg). Enenwoy has a half-Jewish population, and most surrounding towns and boroughs are majority or almost all Jewish.
 
Wicca is another large minority religion in Angevinia, and has received a large following due to Angevinia's traditional "superstitious" or "Witchy" culture. Many Wiccans also partially or fully practice other religions and integrate Wiccan teachings or beliefs on the side. Due to the existence of "magick" being caused by genetic mutations after the Yellowstone eruption, Wicca and magick have entered into a nearly every day - but still somewhat shunned and awkward - position of Angevin life.
 
{{wp|Spiritualism}} is a small but generalized religious movement in Angevinia, experiencing a small number of growth in recent years. Most Spiritualists are syncretic and combine teachings from many different groups, like Wiccans, but don't commit specifically to one group.
 
{{wp|Native religions}} also exist in Angevinia, but have largely been replaced or syncretized with other religions, mainly Catholicism. As of 2320, the most divided religious community comprised of Natives are that of the Mi'kmaq, who are divided up between the Knights of Columbus, a traditionalist Catholic faction, the Sons of Glooskap (an indigenous belief organization), and a small amount of syncretic groups.
 
During and after the Collapse, religion took hold of Angevinia again, with Catholicism -- promoted by Chicagoland and traditionalist Catholic factions ("tradcath") of the Gilead Compact -- becoming a common religion, and eventually the primary religion, taking over Atheism and Protestant Christianity by 2100. Angevinia, while not formed as a Catholic country ''per se'', notes that it has a heavy Catholic tradition, and has "traditionally Catholic nations" within it's borders. Today, the general government opinion on the "religious question" seems to be a rather simple "it does not matter, provided you are religious to begin with."
 
Angevinia has three patron saints, Saint Karl von Habsburg of Austria, {{wp|St. John the Baptist}}, and Saint {{wp|Kateri "Catherine" Tekakwitha}}. Saint Karl was selected by the first Angevin King, Karl I, as a representation of a model traditionalist and Catholic Monarch, and Saint Kateri was selected due to her being born in the territories in modern Angevinia, alongside being one of the first Catholic Saints in Merica. St. John the Baptist is the national saint of Québéc.
[[File:Kateritekakwitha.jpg|thumb|An artist's rendition of Saint Kateri Tekakwitha (1656-1680).]]
 
Angevinia is divided up into 30 Roman Catholic Provinces, including 57 {{wp|diocese}}, divided up from 10 {{wp|archdiocese}}.
 
===Immigration and Migration===
Angevinia maintains a very small immigration office, located on the outskirts of Enenwoy. A customs office is maintained and this is mainly for state officials and tourists that occasionally come into the country and state officials and tourists leaving the country on diplomatic visitations. Additionally, merchants leaving Angevinia to trade internationally must carry a passport with them at all times.
 
[[File:PassportAngevinia.png|thumb|left|An Angevin passport format. Note how each term of "Angevinia" is displayed.]]
 
As is the case with practically all other nations in Merica, immigration to and from Angevinia is practically unheard of. However, Angevinia does maintain immigration records, and it does allow a small amount of people (under 200 a year), to immigrate to the nation. Most of these people come from the Jamésie-Kativik autonomous agreement zone, and are considered "tribals," or people of indigenous or other descent who are stateless. The remainder of immigrants generally come from bordering nations, the British Isles, the Europan Confederacy, Sénégambie, Zion, or Antartída. There is a very intensive vetting process to get in as well, and all immigrants are required to "pick a culture" and assimilate into it as much as possible.
 
Angevinia does not espouse ethnonationalism like some other Merican states, but believes that immigration in most numbers dilutes the overall cultures of the nation. This is generally believed to stem from paleoconservative policies from the era of the Second American Civil War.
 
Emigration from Angevinia is likewise rare. This is due to a high quality of living, a high cultural assimilation rate, and because most neighboring Merican nations harbor similar policies regarding immigration. In the past 25 years, 491 people have emigrated, mainly to Cascadia, New Afrika, and Dinétah. Most of these people were "Pheenies," or "Phenotypes," a term referring to ethnonationalists or ethnic supremacists. The only nation to receive a sizeable amount of non-ethnically motivated immigrants was Antartída, followed by Rontroit, who took around 60-70 persons each.
 
===Health and Healthcare===
Angevin healthcare is delivered through a series of Commonwealth based systems of publicly funded healthcare. This is called Medicare. According to the Angevin Constitution, healthcare is a natural right for all Angevin citizens regardless of, according to section three, "anything." Due to the economy not using money domestically, medical supplies are pooled for use by the general populace in various hospitals throughout the nation regardless of cost in case of specific needs. These include prescription and non-prescription drugs, painkillers, physical trauma equipment like casts and splints, eye and dental care, and occasional experimental treatments. Angevin healthcare attempts to firstly be holistic and natural before delving into more artificial ways of medicine and healing, though it's not uncommon to see the two mix.
 
Pre-Collapse, New England had some of the best hospitals in the world, a trait that is still carried onto this day.
 
Due to increased international cooperation and trade in the field of medicine, more advanced systems of care have been built throughout Angevin hospitals. Because of friendly relations with scientifically advanced nations such as Rontroit and Antartída, the already advanced Angevin healthcare system has helped discover cures for many different diseases that came back after the Collapse, including successfully vaccinating the wildlife population against rabies. Through cooperation with European Confederacy and Antartídan scientists and researchers, a universal cure for most forms of cancer was discovered in 2256. A cure for rarer, prion based diseases like Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) and Familial Fatal Insomnia (FFI) was discovered via work with Rontroiti and Bod-pa scientists in 2268. Work with Russian scientists helped to cure and even reverse osteoporosis, and work with scientists from Sénégambie helped cure the Marburg virus.
 
Abortion and forced euthanasia are illegal, mainly due to religious influence. A "right to life" policy is maintained, which bans both unless extreme circumstances exempt people from doing so. It additionally maintains an extensive suicide prevention and mental health program. The government runs a suicide prevention hotline for the whole nation. Despite this, Angevinia is rather eugenicist with childbearing, and anyone considered to have a major genetic disease, low IQ, or those of "bad moral standing" are barred from having children, or raising them. The lowest 5% of the national IQ range is banned from having children too. Children likely to be born with disabilities such as birth defects, learning disabilities, or mental illnesses are not euthanized or aborted, but healthcare professionals attempt to dissuade parents from proceeding if a substantial risk is detected.
 
Birth control in pill, hormonal, or implant forms are banned. Condoms are not, though some people discourage them due to religious stigma.
 
Most health statistics place Angevinia above the GT10 baseline. Life expectancy is very high, at 82.7 years total, with 84.4 for women and 80.9 for men.
 
Drugs maintain a precarious position in Angevinia. All hard drugs such as heroin, cocaine, and meth are banned though enforcement proves difficult sometimes. The only long lasting "foreign intervention" run by the Angevin military are anti-drug operations in the J-K autonomous agreement zone. Being caught smuggling, making, or selling hard drugs carries a penalty of death, with the government holding the position that drug usage and addiction is "degenerate" alongside being damaging to individual and public health. Hallucinogenic drugs, such as mushrooms, ayahuasca, and DMT are, while not illegal, generally tightly controlled by the government and handled mainly by religious organizations of Wiccan or Native beliefs. Marijuana is legal, though this is mostly for CBD oil treatments, as being "high" carries a heavy social stigma.
 
===Race===
Race is not a big deal as it is in Angevinia as it is in other Merican nations. A culturally diverse nation, Angevinia seeks to generally view it's citizens as followers of different cultures rather than divide them by race. However, Angevinia still maintains a racial demographics chart for health reasons and statistics. Racial equality is assured by the constitution, and most Angevins are generally beholding of "non-racist" beliefs by the world standard. It is believed that Angevinia's strangely "colorblind" race politics are a byproduct of the pre-Collapse American race policies common in the 1980s to early 2010s.
 
The majority of Angevinia is White, followed by Angevins of Mixed, Black, Native, Jewish, Asian, Indian, Latino, Arab, and "Other" in that order. In official documents, Ashkenazi Jews are generally classified as a subgroup of White. This caused the Cascadian Territorial Imperative to bar trade with Angevinia for a fifteen year period in the late 2200s.
 
The overall government belief seems to be one of "different but equal," and many cultures seem to have subgroups depending on race. Black Scoshuns, Asian Qadians, and even White Algonquians exist, but they generally tend to be small minorities, and the largest groups tend to have the most racial diversity, these being the Yankees and the Québécois. However, many in Angevinia have mixed or negative views on miscegenation, and generally see it much like immigration, as something that "dilutes" culture. This debate doesn't seem to be going away either. Mixed race people, however, are protected from discrimination, and most Mixed-race people in Angevinia report little to no discrimination at work or school.
 
Racial extremism or supremacism is heavily discouraged by both the government or society as a whole due to past conflicts with the "Pheeny" nations of Merica.
 
===Education===
Inside Angevinia are some of the oldest and most renowned institutions of higher learning in the world. Harvard College was founded in 1636 at Cambridge, Massachusetts, to train preachers, the first such institution in America. Yale was founded in Saybrook, Connecticut in 1701, and awarded the United States it's first doctoral degree in 1861. Yale moved to New Haven in 1718, where it remained until the Second American Civil War. The Battle of Yale destroyed most of the college due to Federal Artillery Command declaring that Yale University "had been lost." New Haven was taken by the ocean, and Yale was re-established in 2232, in Torrington, Connecticut. Seven out of eight pre-Collapse "Ivy League" schools were located within Angevin borders. This includes MIT, originally located in Cambridge, now located in Lunenburg, Massachusetts. McGill university, located in Montréal, was also widely considered to be one of the best universities in Canada before the collapse.
 
Various college "consortiums," or groups of colleges closely affiliated with one another, are also common in Angevinia. These include the Wormtown-Cape Consortium, the Five College Consortium, three different SUNC consortiums, and numerous others spread throughout the Commonwealth.
 
At the pre-collegiate level, Angevinia reformed the pre-Collapse education system into a mix of public and private styled education. Some boarding schools exist, but the average public school is based on a town or a regional basis. Attempts at keeping schools small are made, with an effort placed on community cooperation between students. Most schools have between 1,000 to 1,500 students max, with the average being much smaller. Most schools in the region promote a healthy mix of academics and practical schooling, with most students being able to learn a variety of baseline academics, practical skills, and languages as well. Most high schools in Angevinia have been or previously were operating at some point during or even before the founding of the American Empire, with the oldest surviving in the nation being Hopkins Academy, located in Sunderland, after the original buildings were taken by the Quabbin Sea.
 
There are many academic journals and publishing companies in the region, new and old, including The ''"Angevin Jurnal a Medicine"'' (formerly The New England Journal of Medicine), and the University Presses of Hahvard and Yale.
 
All education in Angevinia is free.
 
Angevin education is widely regarded as some of the most advanced and highest quality within the modern world.

===Transport===
Despite having a low population density, Angevinia's transport sector is well developed and considered to be one of the best on the continent. Though much of it was destroyed during the Second American Civil War and the Collapse, most of Angevinia's roads have been rebuilt along with bridges, railways, and airports. They are regarded as efficient. Airports aren't as common as they were pre-Collapse, however, and Angevinia maintains only one international airport, which is primarily used by government and military officials. It is located in Athol, Massachusetts. It does, however, take in a number of international tourists each autumn on account with allowed quotas and "leafer" seasons. All trains in Angevinia are bullet trains with the exception of subways, and rail lines connect all major cities to one another. Boat travel is also common due to long shorelines and a maritime culture.
 
Each Commonwealth in Angevinia has it's own Transportation Syndicate, responsible for planning, developing, and building transportation routes throughout the Commonwealth and providing transportation services with other DTS organizations. Every major city has it's own local TS, which oversees transport in the city and surrounding area. The New Hahtland Transportation Syndicate, or NHTS, it the largest of these, followed by the Enenwoy TS (ETS), and the Montréal TS (SdTdM). All major cities also have a below and above ground subway system, and a tram-trolley system. Subways are used primarily for city-wide travel, and tram-trolley systems are usually used for shorter distances. One of the first metros in the USA and the worldw as the MTBA metro, located in Boston.
 
AGTRAK provides all inter-Commonwealth rail travel throughout the nation. One train connects the entirety of the nation, the ''Vermonter,'' which was in service prior to the Second American Civil War. With it's route expanded from northern Vermont to one from Labrador to Joyse, the train essentially does a round-trip of Angevinia every day, though the route uses different trains to speed things up.
 
Bus transport is available in most suburban and a few rural areas, and is governed by regional or local TS. Most northern regions, islands, and the Deitsland Commonwealth are more rural areas with bus services.
 
Almost all families in Angevinia own at least one personal vehicle. Most vehicles are solar powered or run on some variant of biofuel. Most vehicles are based on pre-Collapse models with extensive modifications, though in recent years, due to more world stability and government incentives, locally designed models are becoming more and more common. The same is reflected on boats, with most families in coastal areas having some sort of sea faring vehicle.

In other regions of Angevinia, such as Deitsland, horses and buggies are common. In more rural areas with extensive farms, horse travel is a common mode of transportation for short to medium distance travel. The Angevin government currently has a goal to provide most Angevins with at least three easy methods of transportation by the end of the century.
 
===Energy===
All energy within Angevinia is renewable and considered "green" and is required by law to be so. Overall, the most common forms of energy are solar, wind, hydroelectric, and biofuel. In certain areas, geothermal power is generally used as well, though primarily for heating buildings. Government programs in recent decades ahve attempted to make each home and businesses in Angevinia self-sufficient in energy production. As of 2320, roughly 83% of houses and 44% of businesses are self-sufficient, and 95% of government and military buildings are.
 
Solar power in most common in the west and south, due to wide open spaces. Wind power also appears a bit more, but most wind farms within the boundaries of Angevinia are off the coast. Hydroelectricity is used mostly in the central and northern regions of the nation, where dams and levees are common. Thanks to bio-engineering from nations such as Rontroit, biofuel is much more efficient in the 2300s than it ever has been. Rarely used, biofuel is generally an automotive and long-distance transportation based fuel.
 
Hydroelectricity is achieved through multiple sources. The most common source of hydropower conventional, followed by tidal hydropower. Conventional is a hydroelectric style derived from potential energy of still or dammed water. The largest hydroelectric dam in Angevinia is the Southampton Dam, and the second largest is across the Quabbin Sea, the Hampden Dam. Tidal power stations use tides to generate poewr, and are common due to tides being easily predictable. Tidal power is more common than "conventional" nowadays, though conventional produces more energy. Run-of-the-river hydropower is used in small towns and towns by rivers. A constant supply makes it easy to store energy for later, and it additionally allows smaller and more remote towns to become autarkic with energy production as well. If all rivers were used, an estimated 31% of all energy in Angevinia could be produced from it.
 
Wind turbines are located in a large variety of places, and many cities and larger towns -- even those not in the west and south -- have small wind turbines (and occasionally solar panels as well) above more modern lampposts and some buildings. Additionally, most highway sign posts have at least one turbine built into them. In some cases, they can even use the wind produced by passing cars to power themselves.
 
Biofuel is generally comprised of various forms of natural biomass. Fossils fuels are not really used in Angevinia or most other nations. Contrary to pre-Collapse definitions, solid biomass that is burned as fuel such as kindling, pellets, or briquettes are classified as biofuel by the government. Liquid and gaseous fuels are also counted as biofuel. Since most biofuels tend to be able to regrow fast enough, it is considered renewable energy. The majority of biofuel in Angevinia comes from grass, algae, and chaff. Wood and peat are occasionally used, but this is mainly for heating homes.
 
In the past, both New England and the Maritimes were the most energy-efficient areas in the US and Canada as a whole. This was generally offset by high prices on electricity, which is no longer a problem.
