The United Commonwealth of America (UCA), commonly known as the United Commonwealth (UC), Commonwealth, or in pre-1983 Contexts, New England, is a Country primarily located in North America. The 'Core' Commonwealth is bordered by Canada to the North and the Midwestern Union to the west. It is officially a federation of 14 states, two Canadian-American Joint territories, three "Sister Republics", a federal capital district, and several Indian Reservations. Although claiming 14 states, the country only controls 8, the other 6 being under the de-jure (and internationally recognized) control of the Western Rump State.
Following the collapse of the United States in the wake of the Three Mile Island incident, the remnants of the American government fled to the west coast, and little more than a year after the collapse, the New England states joined together and proclaimed the United Commonwealth, claiming the United States and her ideals of democracy had been betrayed, and that New England would carry the so called "Torch of Democracy". Soon after, the state governments of New York, as well as what was left of New Jersey and Pennsylvania would vote to join the Commonwealth.
The United Commonwealth is a founding member of the Tokyo Accords and TTARS, as well as the BRUCA Agreement (a successor to the 1943 BRUSA Agreement), as well as being a member of the United Nations, World Bank, a Contested UN Security Council member, and an observer in the Organization of American States. The National government of the Commonwealth takes much of its functions from the United States, being a presidential constitutional republic and liberal democracy with three separate branches: legislative, executive, and judicial. It has a bicameral national legislature composed of the House of Representatives, a lower house based on population; and the Senate, an upper house based on equal representation for each state. Less autonomy is given to states, with its "Sister Republics" maintaining near full independence, with Hawaii being officially neutral in most affairs. The nation has a political culture that emphasizes liberty, equality under the law, individualism, and limited government, however maintains some more authoritative policies. The UC ranks among the world's highest in innovation, human rights, and higher education.
