The United (Unified) (Confederated) States (Republics) (Realms) of (North) America (Avalon) is a surprisingly robust concept, temporally speaking. Historical inertia seems to approve of a large, continent-spanning democratic republic arising in North America at
some point between 1700 and 1850 AD. Perhaps the various iterations of the USA serve some purpose in the grander scheme of things. Or possibly it’s an ongoing coincidence. TimeWatch hasn’t really researched the situation, and is not particularly interested in the mechanics of it, either.
