World Conference Room

Sealand, British Province

"…and that is why totalitarian government is good thing, yes." Chinese Federation finished.

The other nations groaned. China never shut up about this sort of thing.

"Thank you, China, for that very…informative speech." Sealand said, half-heartedly. "Now, anyone else have anything they need to bring to attention?"

Every nation raised their hand.

"Anything that doesn't involve your bickering with your neighbors?" Sealand clarified.

Everybody set their hand down.

Sealand groaned. 'I hate hosting these meetings.' he mentally whined. 'We never get anything done.'

"'Scuse me, Seh'land." a very accented voice said. "But, I think we goin' tah need to make some changes 'round this here meetin'."

Sealand groaned again. "What kind of changes, South?" he asked reluctantly.

The speaker, the South American Union, smiled maliciously. "I be thinkin' that we best be taxin' them weakah nations. Since we be so pawaful, it be the only logical conclusion."

Sealand sighed. Why, oh why, did South act the way she did. Why couldn't she be quieter, like her older brother North American Union; who, at present, was busy trying to flirt with Xernid…wait, what!

"North, please stop trying to flirt with Xernid. You know she'll just…"

WHACK!

"…hit you again." Sealand finished with a cringe.

"I know, but I hope she might someday come to live at my house." North replied, slightly dazed from Xernid's punch.

"In your dreams, you overconfident spawn of America." Xernid replied with a psychotic smile even scarier then South's.

North looked slightly offended. But only slightly. "Hey, Dad was a cool guy. Don't hate on him."

Sealand sighed. North was a pain, but at least he wasn't a megalomaniac like his little sister.

"You sure you don't want tah be taxin' dem poor countries, Seh'land?" South America asked again.

Sealand let loose groan number four. "Alright, now let's continue this meeting. Next on our list…"

By the year 2286 A.D., most of the 21st century nations had perished. However, new nations rose up to take their places…

The North American Union and the South American Union were both founded in A.D. 2093. The previous country in the Americas, the United States of America, fell to an attack by part of his own country, the South American Territory. After the execution of America and Liechtenstein, ending the American-Liechtensteinerin Alliance. South American Territory then divided the previous American territories between herself and her brother Hero (His father was a little obsessed with heroes.). Despite being distraught over his parent's deaths, Hero still accepted the North American continent, renaming himself the North American Union. South did the same on the South American continent. Besides the two main landmasses, North also received the territories of Liechtenstein and Hawaii, and South kept the mineral-rich South Africa for herself, much to the dismay of United Africa.

Sealand, like China and Xernid, was one of the few 21st century countries to live, and even thrive, into the 23rd century. Starting out with only a fort, Sealand remained small until the fall of the United Kingdom and Ireland in 2045 A.D. Sealand then recruited a small mercenary army to help take over what remained on the British Isles. Today, Sealand also spans through France and several other parts of Northern Europe.

The Chinese Federation, or China, has existed for over 4000 years. Their culture has remained relatively the same over the years, despite heavy westernization. Today, China spans throughout the Southeast and even onto the islands that used to make up Japan.

New Switzerland, or Switz, was founded in 2134 A.D. as a revival of old Swiss customs. His father, the original Switzerland, had fallen in 2024 A.D. to Austrian invaders. Today, New Switzerland spans across all of Old Switzerland and, coincidentally, Austria. Switz is also the cousin of North and South.

Xernid, formerly Belarus, spans across the Baltic States and the westernmost part of Russia.

The Aussie Empire spans across Australia and Oceania.

United Africa spans all of Africa, save for South Africa and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The Muslim Empire spans all of the Arabian Peninsula.

Oh, those wimps in Italy are still around, too.

But none of these nations expect traitors among them, preparing an attempt to take over the world.

South American Union, the State of Brazil

South American Union sipped some of her guava juice as Xernid and Muslim entered her office. It was very spacious, with walls lined with ornate decorations, as well as beautifully intricate furniture all around the room.

South smiled innocently, as if they were a few friends getting together to discuss politics, not attending a meeting to discuss world domination. The Muslim Empire almost dropped his guard. South, with her blonde hair and bluish-green eyes, was the spitting image of her mother, Liechtenstein. Back when he was known as Saudi Arabia, Muslim had actually met the now-dead nation and her older brother at one of those stupid UN meetings.

"Welcome, my dear allies." South said, in an surprisingly unaccented General American. "As you know by now, I wish to create an alliance. Our goal will be to take over the world. Are you interested?"

Both Muslim and Xernid nodded their heads, suddenly terrified to be in the mere presence of South. Every atom in their bodies screamed for them to run away.

'She is like an evil, twisted version of that sweet girl I met so long ago at the UN summit.' Muslim thought to himself.

South smiled, but it wasn't out of happiness. It was the smile of a predator about to gut its prey. "Excellent, now if you'll just sign here…"

"Waaaiit! I am a coming. Please a wait for me." A slightly girlish boy's voice called from the corridor.

South swore. "It looks like that idiot, Italy, found us. Whoever tipped him off is so getting the firing squad."

Italy smiled panted heavily as he entered the office. "Whew, I thought you were going to start the meeting without me. So, what is the plan Miss South?"

South stood up straighter, slightly grateful for Italy being polite. "We plan to conquer the rest of the world. Would you care to join us? After all, since you fought with the late Germany in World War II you should be an expert at his military tactics. After all, the only reason he lost the war was a faulty leader. None of our nations, save for Ita…never mind, has the same problem. So I will ask you now Italy, would you join our alliance."

"Of course, Miss South. I can make us all pasta." Italy said, while nodding furiously.

"Alright then." South began. "Dismissed." The other countries then filed out of South's office.

"Ah, the sweet smell of foolish countries." South said with a smile as she returned to sipping her guava juice.
