The Future Revived (Map Game)/The United States of the Middle East

The United States of the Middle East is a confederation created by its leading state, Turkey, after wars with Islamic State and Iran. The Federation Document, which binds the nation's eight states in a confederation, has ties to the Magna Carta and the U.S. Constitution.

Economy
The Middle Eastern economy is one of the best in the world. The Middle Eastern Dollar is the standard form of currency, although each state has its own currency as well. The Euro is also accepted, mostly due to German refugees that fled nuclear attacks in their country. Each Middle Eastern citizen is given one house, one electric car, and enough food to survive. Each male will receive a job and will be expected to do his job for 10 hours each day for 6 days a week., and will receive 5000 dollars a week. School costs about 100 dollars a month and each student shall receive a basic education.

Government
The government of the USME is similar to that of the United States in the year 2015. A national government which consists of two branches, the executive and the legislative branch. The executive leader, or the president, controls the city of Ankara, 10,000 personal soldiers. He also can sign laws and he controls the leaders of armed forces in the country. The legislative branch creates the laws and sends them to the state legislatures. A majority of 6 out of 8 states must agree to the law before it goes to the executive, who then signs or vetos it. Each state has 100,000 soldiers to conduct border patrol, terrorist investigations, and fight rebel groups.

Diplomacy
The USME is the co-founder of the Global Senate, an organization created as a new UN. They are allied to Rumas, Occitania, Escosicia, and have close ties to the REA, PC, and Japan. The eight states of Turkey, Kurdistan, Iraq, Azerbaijan, Palestine, Syria, Persia, and Georgia, also maintain good relations with the federal government.
