	* Central American Federal Union (CAFU) – CAFU ~~comrpises~~ the ~~former~~ nations of Guatemala, Belize, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and North Panama. During World War III, Colombia made an attempt to seize the Panama Canal under the claim of attempting to prevent the US Pacific Fleet from using it (Panama had a treaty with the United States which offered unfettered access). Their attempt succeeded, but the Colombian forces continued to invade further into Panama before annexing the nation. The current member nations of CAFU rallied to drive Colombia southwards, but they only succeeded in liberating the Panama to the Canal – they were unable to proceed southwards beyond the Canal due to entrenched Colombian forces. The month-long conflict ended when a treaty was brokered by Mexico, who didn’t want to have to worry about a war brewing to their South while they were planning the invasion of the United States. Following the conflict, the nations who fought off Colombia formed a defensive coalition which grew into a wider political union in the post-war era. Smuggling remains a problem for CAFU, with CAFU’s inability to police their northern border with Mexico remaining a point of contention between the two nations. Relations with Colombia remain strained, and the Panama Canal is officially designated a Demilitarized Zone, but regulation of this zone is poor.		* Central American Federal Union (CAFU) – CAFU comprises the nations of Guatemala, Belize, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and North Panama.

	'''INTERNAL CONFLICTS:''' Similarly to their main competitor – the European Union – the internal political environment of the Russo-Asian pact is very calm. Trade and cultural interconnectivity between the member nations prevent any form of real military conflict, so the conflicts that do arise are related to political gaffes and mismanagement. The bigger source of possible conflict is the EU vs Russo-Asian Pact dynamic.

			'''EXTERNAL CONFLICTS:''' Russia is generally considered to be in a state of undeclared hostilities with Chechnya at any given time.

	* Confederation of Independent States – The former nations of the Soviet bloc that remain allied with Russia still dance around Russia like courtiers circling an emperor. Constantly caught in the balance of pandering to their powerful ally, and attempting to maintain control over their own populaces, these nations form a physical buffer around Russia, lending them some breathing room in return for guarantees of protection.		* Confederation of Independent States – The former nations of the Soviet bloc that remain allied with Russia still dance around Russia like courtiers circling an emperor.

	* Anti-Psionics Bias – Psionics are still not well-received by the general populace on Earth, mainly due to concerns over privacy. Hate crimes against those with psionic abilities were prevalent in the early 2020s. Attitudes have softened a bit since then, but there is still a general attitude of “don’t trust them.” Psionic abilities must be registered with the SDA, failure to do so is a crime.		* Anti-Psionics Bias – Psionics are still not well-received by the general populace on Earth, mainly due to concerns over privacy.

	Geopolitical Tensions – The image that “humanity is united and peace reigns supreme” is really only that – an image, and one that the media is still hesitant to push. While there hasn’t been an open, active large-scale military conflict inside the Alliance since the Belt Rebellion in 2022, border disputes still rage across the world. Every now and then one flares up into a day or two of actual shooting conflict, but for the most part the conflicts remain limited to posturing both in and out of the political negotiating rooms.		* Geopolitical Tensions – The image that “humanity is united and peace reigns supreme” is really only that – an image, and one that the media is still hesitant to push.

	* Relics of WW3 – Even a decade removed from the end of the War, the scars of World War III are still found from time to time. Major metropolitan areas have been repaired, but unexploded ordinance turns up in Europe and the Middle East from time to time when construction work is underway, and there are more than a few dark secrets of the war sealed up across the planet.		* Relics of WW3 – Even a decade removed from the end of the War, the scars of World War III are still found from time to time.

	* Spirit Beasts – Enraged by the misuse of the planet and environmental destruction wrought by humanity, some of the more powerful spirits on the planet have decided to ‘teach those pesky humans a lesson,’ so to speak. After their initial attacks in the early 2020s, the SDA was tasked with overseeing defense against these powerful creatures of destruction that strike without warning and in any possible location. It’s theorized that there may be an additional reason why these beasts began to appear, and that they may have some undetermined other goal.		* Spirit Beasts – Enraged by the misuse of the planet and environmental destruction wrought by humanity, some of the more powerful spirits on the planet have decided to ‘teach those pesky humans a lesson,’ so to speak.
