North American Confederacy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The North American Confederacy (NAC) is a fictional government in the alternate history created by L. Neil Smith in the novel The Probability Broach and sequels. It is patterned on the Articles of Confederation, but with a much greater emphasis on individual freedom. As of the "start" of The Probability Broach in 1986, the NAC consisted of the entire continent of North America (including the states of the US, the Republic of Texas, and the various independent states of Mexico and Canada) as well as Antarctica, the Moon, and the major colonized asteroids.
