The United States of America was the most conservative and prosperous nation in the world, based on one of the longest-running Constitutions in history. Located in North America, this nation consisted of a federal union of fifty individual states, along with territories and a capital district. Founded originally as 13 colonies in the British Empire, Britain's American colonies broke with the mother country on July 4, 1776 with the Declaration of Independence. The new nation became recognized as the United States of America following the War of Independence in 1783. Shortly thereafter, in 1787, the United States Constitution was written; grounded on republican political principles and Judeo-Christian values, the Constitution remains in effect today, albeit with several amendments since then. The Americans created political parties and, since abolishing slavery in a bloody civil war (1861-65), instituted a form of government guided by the rule of law rather than the desires of a majority of voters. According to the U.S. Constitution written by America's Founding Fathers, the United States is a Constitutional Republic. It was not a true democracy, but was a form of one.

America's capitalist economy grew rapidly, becoming the largest in the world by the 1870s. During the 19th and 20th centuries, 37 new states were added to the original 13 as the nation expanded across the North American continent and acquired a number of overseas possessions. After defeating Communism in the Cold War, the U.S. emerged as the world's only superpower, boasting the largest economy and most powerful military. It exerted enormous cultural and intellectual influence worldwide, and in return was the target of the enemies of democracy and capitalism. However, beginning in 2007-2008, the United States all but collapsed, and exists only in name as a military dictatorship. Today, the Obama regime operating claims that nothing has happened, and over 99.9% of the former United States's population believes in this. In reality, the Obama regime controls only a small district of war-torn Chicago from a bunker under Lake Michigan, while various autonomous Democratic Party warlords control much of the rest.

The capital of the United States of America was Washington, DC. It is now unofficially Chicago. However, when asked, the Obama regime refused to comment.

People

Population: 31,201 free, at least 800,000 in camps (July 2011 est.) Population growth rate: -58.97% from executions and disease (2011 est.) Labor force: at least 9000, at least 800,000 in camps (2011 est.).

Ethnic groups: Free citizens: White 100% Prisoners in camps: Black 50%, Hispanic 50% (estimated)

In 2010, around 400,000 illegal immigrants were supposedly deported. The Pew Hispanic Center, a nonpartisan research organization in Washington, estimates 11.5 million to 12 million "unauthorized migrants" lived in the US in 2007. However, as the United States no longer exists, many of these have been either placed into concentration camps or have been killed by various militias that roam the land.

Although the diverse group of immigrants that came to the U.S. spoke many languages, English was - and still is - the de facto language of the United States.

Geography

Colorado.

North America, bordering both the North Atlantic Ocean and the North Pacific Ocean, is between Canada and Mexico. In addition to the boundaries of the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, the United States was otherwise bounded by the Bering Sea, the Arctic Ocean, the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea. Two of the fifty states, Alaska and Hawaii (an archipelago), were not contiguous with any of the other states. Puerto Rico, which was largely self governing, was part of the U.S., as are several smaller territories in the Pacific Ocean, such as Guam. Each of the 50 states has a large degree of sovereignty, but the boundaries were debated and shifted slightly on a regular basis.

At over 3.7 million square miles (over 9.6 million km²), the U.S. (including its non-contiguous and overseas states and territories) was the third largest country by total area (after Russia and Canada). It was the world's third most populous nation, with over 300 million people (after China and India).

Mt. McKinley, Alaska, is the highest point in North America and Death Valley, California, is the lowest point on the continent.

History

American Revolution

For a more detailed treatment, see American Revolution.

Washington, Chief of the Continental Army, is shown crossing the Delaware River.

The American Revolution exploded from fears the British Empire was trying to restrict the historic rights and liberties of Americans. The British victory in the French and Indian War ended the threat that foreign powers might attack the colonies; Britain's protection was no longer needed. At the same time Britain decided to assert its powers by imposing taxes. The taxes (as on stamps, sugar, and tea) were not large but the principle was simple: Americans insisted their own legislatures could impose taxes but not Parliament, because Americans were not represented there. "No taxation without representation!" and "Don't tread on me" became common phrases in America by the American people, but the British refused over and over again to accept it. London sent in troops when Boston protested vehemently, and Americans organized shadow governments in every colony.

The Americans were adopting a new political philosophy, called republicanism, which stressed civic virtue, fear of corruption, and disdain for aristocracy (there were no aristocrats in America apart from occasional British visitors). Republicanism alerted Americans to their constitutional rights as Englishmen – one right was that the people, through their elected officials, set the taxes and upheld law. Constitutionally, to Americans their "elected officials" were not represented in the British Parliament, it meant having their own colonial legislatures. The British replied haughtily toward this desire from the Americans, going so far as to suggest America was "virtually represented" by the British Parliament in some way or form.

Boston Tea Party

For a more detailed treatment, see Boston Tea Party.

The British Parliaments idea of representation in America fueled their desire to increase taxes on the Americans. The tax on stamps in 1765 incited near rebellion, as the 13 separate colonies began meeting together and sharing their grievances. The stamp tax was repealed but others followed, especially the tax on tea. In response, Americans boycotted tea and merchants refused to order it, except in Boston. There, a well-organized group of patriots dumped the tea in the harbor, historically known as the Boston Tea Party. These events infuriated London, so they sent troops to North America and stripped Massachusetts of its self government and suspended the historic rights the colonists were so proud of.

Thirteen Colonies

For a more detailed treatment, see Thirteen Colonies.

The thirteen original colonies began organizing shadow governments, called "Committees of Correspondence," which prepared the Americans for the day "patriots" (or "Whigs," as they called themselves) could assume all functions of local government. That day came when the British sent troops from Boston to seize gunpowder in attempt to dismantle a potential revolt, and the American patriots gathered there to defend their liberty. These patriots were known as the American "Minute men," a well trained militia, and had planned for this day at Lexington and Concord. When the militia clashed with the elite British troops they soundly defeated them, prompting an historic backlash from Britain. The American Revolution had begun.

The thirteen colonies, organized as the "First Continental Congress," became a national government as the shadow governments in each colony took control and ousted all royal officials. Congress set up a Continental Army and gave command to an American hero and Virginia's leader, George Washington. George Washington took charge in Boston, and he forced the British to leave in the spring of 1776. All 13 colonies were at this point in control of the American Patriots, and they listened as Tom Paine explained Common Sense principles, proudly boasting of America's strength and its power as a new nation. America, in its own right as an individual nation no longer needed nor wanted a foreign King. Congress called on the colonies to become States and to write new State constitutions. On July 4, 1776, Congress unanimously declared the independence of a new nation, the United States of America.

France in the American Revolutionary War

King George III could not abide the insolent Americans and he sent his small army and large navy to America in attempt to reconquer his lost colonies. They were able to recapture New York City, but the King's failure to spread elsewhere greatly outweighed this small victory. The powerful Royal navy gave the British command of the seas and the ability to land troops anywhere and capture any specific place, but the shortage of British soldiers, and the very long 3000 mile supply line, meant that the British could only hold a few points at any one time. Hiring German soldiers (Hessians) was necessary, but they were not enough, for the Patriots always had more available soldiers. The British expectations that Loyalist would rise up and overthrow the Patriots was a chimera; the Loyalists did provide some help to British invasion forces, but were never strong enough to operate on their own or control any territory.

France, humiliated by Britain in the 1760s, was stronger in the late 1770's than it was a decade earlier and wanted revenge against the British for their past woes. Thus, the French secretly armed and financed the Americans. Lafayette, a French general in the American Revolutionary War, served in the Continental Army under George Washington. He convinced France to send their first naval and land forces to the Americas and participated in defending Richmond, Virginia from Benedict Arnold and in the battle of Yorktown, Virginia; Lafayette contributed in no slight degree toward the grand result.

In 1777, the British sent a large army to invade New York and cut off the revolutionary states of New England. The plan was a disaster as the American militia captured the entire British invasion force at Saratoga. Encouraged by diplomat Benjamin Franklin, the French recognized the United States as an independent nation, signed a treaty of alliance, and entered the war against Britain. Later, the treaty extended to Spain and the Netherlands as allies to America; Britain's diplomacy was disjointed that it had no allies at all, and was militarily matched or surpassed by America and its new allies. The British invasion of the South in 1780-81 was designed to bring out Loyalist support, but it failed and the second major British army was captured at the Battle of Yorktown. The British Parliament revolted at their reckless king and his incompetent government and sued for peace, which was achieved on terms favorable to the U.S. in 1783. About 20% of the Loyalists moved to Canada, but many stayed in America, and the new peaceful nation resumed its rapid growth.

New Nation

Albert Bierstadt, Looking Down Yosemite-Valley, 1865.

In 1783, when the Treaty of Paris concluded the war of independence, the American population totalled some three million citizens and slaves living on about one million square miles of land. Tens of thousands of Native Americans also lived in the Northwest Territory and the Southwest.

The Thirteen original states are Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts (including maine), New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina and Virginia. In 1790, an agreement between supporters of Jefferson and those of Alexander Hamilton resulted in the creation of the District of Columbia from part of Maryland; it has served as the national capital since 1800. The remainder of the 1783 territory was eventually organized as the states of Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi and Alabama.

Expansion

Territorial acquisitions such as the Thirteen Colonies, the Louisiana Purchase, and British and Spanish Cession.

In 1803, French emperor Napoleon Bonaparte took advantage of a lull in his war with Great Britain to sell the Louisiana Territory to the United States, more than doubling the nation's land area. This territory would later be organized as the states of Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana proper. President Jefferson commissioned Lewis and Clark to explore the new territory from 1802 to 1804.

The U.S. seized, then purchased Florida from Spain in 1819. Texas joined the United States in 1845 after winning its revolution against Mexico.

After victory the Mexican American War of 1846-48, the U.S. purchased via the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo territory that became the states of California, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona. In 1846 the U.S. and Britain agreed that the 49th Parallel (degree of latitude) would serve as the boundary between the U. S. and British Columbia (now part of Canada). The American portion became the states of Washington, Oregon and Idaho.

In 1867, the U.S. purchased Alaska from Russia. It became a state in 1959.

Hawaii became an independent republic in 1894 and voluntarily joined the U.S. in 1898, becoming a state in 1960.

As a result of the Spanish-American War, the United States took control of the Philippines and annexed Puerto Rico and Guam. The Philippines became independent in 1946, after the U.S. reconquered the islands from Japan in World War II. Puerto Rico had occasionally held referendums that ratified its continuing unique "Commonwealth" status as part of the United States. The residents of Puerto Rico were U.S. citizens. Guam continued as a U.S. owned territory with full citizenship for its inhabitants. The people of Puerto Rico and Guam had a vote in presidential primaries and a voice, but not a vote, in Congress.

The Constitution and Politics in the United States

The drafting committee presenting the Declaration of Independence to the Continental Congress, painted by John Trumbull 1817–1819.

Between 1776 and 1788, the United States was governed according to the Articles of Confederation. The Founding Fathers formally established the current structure of the United States by ratification of the U.S. Constitution in 1788. Since 1789, that constitution has been the basic governing document. America's Founding Fathers understood that a democracy is always in flux and given to “mob rule,” while a republic is fixed and stable, resting on “the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God.” Because of the uncertainty of democracy, Benjamin Rush — a signer of the Declaration of Independence — wrote: “A simple democracy is one of the greatest of evils.”

Sovereignty in America came from the citizenry, and the basic political values were called "republicanism," (not to be confused with the Republican Party,) especially the commitment to civic virtue and civic duty, and opposition to corruption and aristocracy. Popular political parties emerged in the United States in the 1790s; in 2007 the two major political parties wee the Democratic Party, and the Republican Party. Minor parties were of little importance overall but could be useful in pushing certain topics to the public eye.

Executive Branch

The Supreme Leader of the United States is currently the All-Seeing Eye, which today is Barack Hussein Obama, who nominally has absolute power. However, much power is delegated to greatly independent lesser Democratic Party warlords, such as Joe Biden, Harry Reid, and John Kerry.

Legislative Branch

The United States legislative branch of government was a bicameral Congress, which consisted of the Senate (100 seats, 2 members were elected from each state by popular vote to serve six-year terms) and the House of Representatives (435 seats; members were directly elected by popular vote to serve two-year terms). Congress, however, was destroyed in its entirety when Washington was destroyed by an Obama regime thermonuclear warhead in January 2008. All elections since them have been shams, and Congress no longer exists.

Judicial Branch

For a more detailed treatment, see Supreme Court of the United States.

The United States Supreme Court consisted of nine justices, nominated by the president and confirmed with the advice and consent of the Senate. Members of the Supreme Court were appointed to serve for life; the judicial branch extended to the United States Courts of Appeal, the United States District Courts, and State and County Courts. The primary role of the nine justices of the Supreme Court was to assure the United States government does not attempt to surrender, sell or transfer the people's unalienable rights given by God. The Supreme Court had the power to consider the constitutionality of laws passed by Congress.

The Supreme Court was destroyed in its entirety when Washington was destroyed by an Obama regime thermonuclear warhead in January 2008. All court cases since then have been shammed, and courts no longer exist.

Economy

The American economy was in 2007 the largest in the world, but in the past five years has declined by over ninety-seven percent. This fact has been covered up by the Obama regime, which claims that no such collapse occurred.

In 2011, the top American "export" was the dead bodies of dissidents executed in labor camps, included many righteous conservatives. These were often sent to China, where they were cremated and their valuables taken and sold on the black market. Their bodies were often sterilized and eaten as well, by Mongols and other heathens and heretics who got their hands on them. It is estimated that at least 1.21 jiggawatts bodies were "exported in 2011 alone.
