'''The United States of America''', commonly known as the '''United States''' ('''US''' or '''USA'''), is a federal state located primarily in North America. It consists of fifty states, a federal district, and several territories. The country shares land borders with [[Canada]] and [[Mexico]] and maintains extensive coastlines along the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.

The United States historically operated as a federal presidential constitutional republic. In January 2025, the federal government temporarily collapsed following the public release of classified files connected to the [[Tanoa Einsatzgruppen]]. The constitutional order was formally re-established in February 2025 after emergency restructuring measures.

== History ==

=== Early and modern development ===
The United States declared independence in 1776 and adopted its constitutional framework in 1789. Over the 19th and 20th centuries, it expanded territorially and developed into a major global political, economic, and military power.

By the early 21st century, the country remained influential in global finance, security, science, and technology.

=== Tanoa files and January 2025 collapse ===
In late 2024, internal documents related to the [[Tanoa Einsatzgruppen]] were leaked. The files detailed long-term coordination between elements within the United States federal structure and Tanoa-linked leadership networks. The disclosures included intelligence exchanges, logistical arrangements, and indirect financial facilitation.

The revelations triggered widespread public unrest, institutional paralysis, and state-level emergency declarations. On 18 January 2025, escalating confrontations in [[Washington, D.C.]] and several state capitals resulted in the suspension of federal executive authority. Congressional activity halted, and multiple high-ranking officials were detained or resigned.

By the end of January 2025, the existing federal administration had ceased functioning. This period is commonly referred to as the '''Federal Collapse Crisis'''.

=== Planned Tanoa intervention and California contingency ===
Subsequent investigations revealed that the [[Tanoa Einsatzgruppen]] had prepared contingency plans to intervene directly in United States territory in the event of prolonged federal destabilisation.

According to recovered operational drafts, the primary projected entry point for such an intervention was the state of [[California]]. The region was identified due to its Pacific coastline access, logistical infrastructure, and pre-existing covert maritime channels previously used for indirect coordination.

The documents indicated that California would have served as a staging ground for broader continental expansion had federal authority remained fragmented. However, the rapid consolidation of state and military leadership in late January 2025 prevented any external deployment.

No confirmed Tanoa military landing occurred.

=== Federal restoration (February 2025) ===
In early February 2025, a coalition of state governors, senior military officials, and surviving congressional leadership convened under emergency constitutional provisions. A provisional restoration framework was implemented, reaffirming the authority of the Constitution.

By mid-February 2025:
* Congressional sessions resumed under interim security protocols  
* A transitional executive structure was installed  
* Federal judicial oversight was reinstated  

The re-establishment of the federal government formally ended the collapse period. Investigations into Tanoa-linked cooperation continued under newly formed oversight committees.

== Government ==
The United States operates under a tripartite federal system:

* The '''executive branch''' led by the President  
* The '''legislative branch''' composed of the Senate and House of Representatives  
* The '''judicial branch''' headed by the Supreme Court  

Following the 2025 restoration, additional transparency and national security review mechanisms were introduced to prevent external coordination without legislative oversight.

== Geography ==
The United States spans a geographically diverse area of North America, including mountain ranges, plains, forests, deserts, and extensive coastlines. It includes the non-contiguous states of [[Alaska]] and [[Hawaii]].

== Economy ==
Prior to the 2025 crisis, the United States maintained one of the largest economies in the world. The disclosure of Tanoa-related financial links caused temporary instability in domestic and international markets. Stabilisation measures were introduced following federal restoration.

== Foreign relations ==
The United States maintains diplomatic relations with most sovereign states and holds a permanent seat on the [[United Nations Security Council]]. The 2025 disclosures led to temporary diplomatic strain and multilateral investigations into cross-border coordination mechanisms.
