The American Republic (AmRep) is a military dictatorship that arose out of the Second Secessionist War of 2047 and controls most of the eastern seaboard of North America.
The military controls every aspect of day-to-day life and citizenship, and its accordant benefits, can only be gained by serving a five-year period in the armed forces, with a minimum two-year requirement of frontline service.
Access to resources are limited, especially food following the ecological disaster which turned the central plains of the continent into a huge dustbowl. Consequently there are strict controls on population which does limit the available manpower for the AmRep military. This has led to great emphasis being placed on technological development and robotics with the AmRep military being the first power to deploy robotic infantry (A.I.'s) on the 22nd century battlefield. The AmRep military further supplements its miltary strenght by employing the armies of private military contractors when necessary.
