Perhaps similar to the Federation's state-sponsored Icarus Armories, the government has a binding contract with munitions companies such as Cascadian National Industries to manufacture war machines, oddly including the Mercenary Cabal-originated ACG-01 Chimera, and was presumably given leeway to manufacture them in case they went to war. They also maintained a sparse amount of rules with the Federation and, before the Cascadian Conflict, worked with them to support less fortunate countries worldwide. It used its capital to link up the Periphery and the rest of the world as well as flow world commerce in and out, and is centered around the Port Authority Building. The government, in its early days, had to quell factional infighting and maintain unity by establishing large military bases. The formal signature of the official government is the "Free and Civil Government of Cascadia."
Depending on which path the world is taking, the now-rebuilding nation may see itself lead the crusade directly. The conflict also wreaked literal hell on earth for Cascadia through Federation use of cordium weapons, which led to the Prospero and Presidian Disasters and resulting in the deaths of millions and much of the country being irreparably ravaged.įollowing the disastrous end of the war, Cascadia rallied to itself Periphery states attacking the Federation and became a haven for mercenary groups.
Together, they eventually drove Federation forces out of its territory, leading to a ceasefire. However, when the Federation began using Cascadian resources to expand by conquest in recent years, Cascadia sought to withdraw its Federation membership, leading to the Cascadian Conflict where the nation collapsed into infighting between pro- and independence/anti-Federation factions.Īlthough the war initially went poorly for Cascadian independence, with much territory taken by the Federation including the capital city Presidia, the Cascadian Independence Force, the largest group opposing the Federation, rallied and was able to continue waging a conventional war against Federation forces with aid from mercenary groups. Ĭascadia became an associate member of the Pacific Federation in AC 382 and worked with them in a number of endeavors, including dealing with the first artificial exclusion zone in Solstitium and helping them win the Oceanian War.
Little is known of its history over the next 400 years, although it is known they had hostile relations with the Dustlands for an unknown period of time. Its founding cities included Presidia, Prospero, and Solstitium. Cascadia was formed just before the start of the After Calamity Era to normalize relations along the Western Seaboard, having suffered a lot of internal strife between city-based and regional factions.
