Second American Civil War

The Second American Civil War was a multi-sided civil war that occurred in the Continental United States, as well as spillovers in Canada and Mexico. The war was led between then-president George Foster and various domestic and foreign forces that oppose both the Americn government and each other (in varying combinations).

Unrest began to boil during the administration of David Jefferson Adams against his genocidal policies and self-proclaimed "work camps" that were being established en masse across the country. The unrest had its peak on September 27, 2052, when Adams was killed in a car bomb. Riots occurred all over the country, and a frantic George Foster's attempts at controlling them failed. He did not campaign for the upcoming 2052 election, and attempted to sign an executive order disqualifying himself from the ballot and the election, but Congress vetoed his decision. The 2052 election was won by an Independent candidate, Jonathan Nez. During the final days of George Foster's short-lived presidency, more and more acts of violence happened, and it seemed to get worse over time. On January 18th, 2052, President Nez would almost be killed by a lone gunman, which would be the straw that broke the camel's neck.
