History
United States
When the area was apart of the United States of America it was called New York for the Duke of York and the city in the United Kingdom.
September 11, 2001
One of the most horrific terrorist attacks to occur on American soil occurred in New York on September 11, 2001. One that day two of four highjacked planes were flown into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in Lower Manhattan, and the towers collapsed. 7 World Trade Center also collapsed due to damage from fire. The collapse of the Twin Towers caused extensive damage and resulted in the deaths of 2,753 victims, including 147 aboard the two planes. Since September 11, most of Lower Manhattan has been restored. In the years since, many rescue worker and residents of the area have developed several life-threatening illnesses, and some have died.
Earth Humans
In 2000, when the Humansian Revolution started, the State of New York provided the most troops to fight the war. When the war deescalated in 2009, after Barack Obama took office, New York state officials focused on writing a new constitution for the future independent country. In 2010 state officials ratified the new territorial constitution which renamed the area to Greenview after a vote took place amongst the residents of New York. This constitution governed the territory until 2018 when Greenview was granted statehood. The current constitution was ratified November 19, 2018, one week and one day after being granted statehood. Greenview was the second state admitted to the Federation
Government
The Government of Greenview is composed of three branches: executive, legislative, and judicial.
The Governor is the State's chief executive and is assisted by the Vice Governor. Both are elected on the same ticket. Additional officers include the Attorney General, the Comptroller, and the Secretary of State. The current governor is Ed Benson (L-New York City), the vice governor is Christine Friday (L-Long Island)
The Greenview Legislature is bicameral and consists of the Greenview State Senate and the Greenview State Assembly. The Assembly consists of 150 members, while the Senate consists of 63. The Legislature is authorized to make laws, subject to the Governor's power to veto a bill. However, the veto may be overridden by the Legislature if there is a two-thirds majority in favor of overriding in each House.
The Judicial branch is headed by the Greenview Supreme court which also acts as the intermediate appellate court for many cases and the local courts handle a variety of other matters including small claims, traffic ticket cases, and local zoning matter, and are the starting point for all criminal cases. The Greenview court system is the largest court system in the Earth Humans.
