Independence Rising

In "Independence Rising," the United States has become a symbol of unchecked corruption, greed, and government overreach. With its economy collapsing under trillions of dollars in debt and its political system riddled with lies, deceit, and criminal behavior, the American people-especially in the southern and midwestern states-find themselves left with no choice but to consider secession. Federal politicians escape justice for horrendous crimes, while ordinary citizens are punished for far lesser offenses, igniting widespread anger and disillusionment across the country. The final straw comes when the Texas Rangers uncover damning evidence of corruption within Texas' own government and refuse to allow the federal authorities to interfere. When the FBI attempts to arrest the Rangers and take control of the cases, Texas defies the federal government. Soon after, Texas and other southern states formally declare their intent to secede, sparking a war of independence. War is inevitable as the Republic of Texas and its allies push back against the federal government's oppressive regime. Texas, along with other rebelling states from Florida to Virginia, fights to reclaim freedom and independence, forming alliances with Russia, China, and other global powers who help in their battle. The war spreads across the country, with battles fought on multiple fronts as the loyalist states try to hold on to power. The war ends with the defeat of the federal government, leading to the dissolution of the United States. The Republic of Texas emerges as the largest and most powerful new nation, while other regions, including the Tribal Nations, are granted their own independence. The former U.S. states are left to rebuild as sovereign nations, while Texas takes the lead in forming a new world order built on cooperation and peace. Despite the destruction and chaos of war, the world enters an era of unity, where the corruption of the past is replaced by hope for a better future.
