In the disputed territories, both the USA and CSA claim to be in charge. Who is depends a lot on who has the most bodies in uniform (and the most guns) in an area at a particular time. Smaller places may tend to favour one side or the other, but if they're in trouble, they won't likely refuse aid from either side.<br/><br/>I probably should have posted some more background information before now, but I've been a bit busy with other things. I'll see about rectifying that shortly.<br/><br/>For a quick summary, off the top of my head there is the USA, CSA, the disputed territories (where we are now), the Republic of Deseret (Mormons) and 2 separate Indian nations. I know I have a map showing things, so I'll get that up as well.
