United States of America WIP
 * Government
 * Venezuela: The Congress votes narrowly against an invasion of Venezuela. This had angered some pro-war supporters but the government decided that they would leave the rest up to those near Venezuela instead of having themselves intervening.
 * 2032 Democratic Primaries: With Korea's behaviour being quite unpredictable, Hammond's support had skyrocketed in the Democratic primaries at the end of 2031 after Korea was found to be supporting China and later revealed to have started plans of trying to sow dissidents in South Asia according to rumours that had emerged within the protests of Korea, with Reed's support now hanging on 52% to 48% of Hammond. Other candidates such as Tulsi Gabbard had already stepped down at this point (in November 2031) as it was impossible to take back support from someone who tries to run a populist campaign, where Gabbard had endorsed Kasim Reed as a candidate for the Democratic Party in the 2032 elections and saying that Senator Hammond is "a deranged person who is mentally focused on a small irrelevant nation". On 18th December however, Hammond fought back on multiple politicians, and insisted that he focused on the general people's opinions and saying to those who endorsed Reed "will suffer consequences when we don't know when Korea is a threat and it's people are for the past four years and they'll regret it." Hammond also promised on 29th December to deal with Korea through "industrial espionage and sabotage", "international crime reparations" and sanctions if he were elected, which decreased his support by a bit due to his uncertain nature of trying to cause a theoretical Third Korean War. The DNC is scheduled to be set in early July 2032 and if Hammond gets a hand on this by becoming the presidential candidate, then the Democratic Party gets trashed.
 * Proportional Voting Debate: As the 2032 elections neared, it was becoming clear that if Hammond rigs the electoral system to his favour, the United States is screwed at this point. Thus the amendment to proportional voting was quickly passed by the Congress initially on October and ratified by 17 states (mostly the east and western states of the United States) quickly by the end of the year. However they still need two-thirds support of making the 30th amendment in effect to instead equally distribute the electoral system through population and not by the Congress.
 * Military
 * Venezuelan-Guyanese War: ​​​​​​We support Guyana by any means.
 * Intervention: With more intervention happening throughout the whole nation and number of ZCP personnel subsequently increases asmore and tempted to join to know information, but the risk of having more of these soldiers are putting a strain in trying to hide information. So a decision is made so that by the end of 2032, they can began toughen the rules as they had enough personnel to deploy across the United States and push into psychological aspects of the test and be tempted through simulations if they are compelling not to leak data and lots of agreements.
 * Economy: Stagnant and recovered.
 * Research
 * Other projects: It gets even more relevant to this day.
 * Martian Manned Mission (December 2031): Publicly, NASA announced that they have launched a mission codenamed "Project Helios" but NASA had decided not to release any more details for multiple reasons which includes sensitive information, so journalists won't gain any information regarding to it until further notice. NASA and the government discouraged any recording of the launch in Cape Canaveral for this mission as five men including two Zalgos which are on another lander that is closely attached and sealed away. The purpose of the mission is to observe as much as possible upon approaching Mars in orbit, the atmospheric landing and all samples and other observational data available on the area. The ZCP will send out additional information once they approach Mars about an estimated two to three months time and see if there were any changes immediately when these Zalgos were launched into space. For now, they have to observe any effects that the Zalgos have on space and if they are affected by any means of no gravity or changes in behaviour.
 * Diplomacy
 * Venezuela: We strongly recommend that you lay off the claim over western Guyana. Your border disputes that have being persistent for almost two hundred years won't do anything.
 * Iceland: The United States funds Iceland's military by sending in some essential equipment to upstart a recently militarised country.
 * Korea: We threaten sanctions if they continue to try to attempt increasing their influence across the world in a defying way. (This is not directly the action of Hammond yet, but the US feels like they have started to make themselves decrease reputation among other nations and make multiple excuses by apologising, this is the point where they began trying to push military tensions)
