American Continental Armed Forces The American Continental Armed Forces has, at its core, the structure and weapons of the former Armed Forces of the United States of America. Given the American Continental Federation's dedication to the reunification of the former U.S. and Canada and revanchist sentiments, the nation continues to move closer and closer to a technocratic stratocracy where most elected offices are held defacto by experts or military personnel. The virtual one-party Democratic Party state has led to an expanded and strengthened military always at the ready with an emphasis on advanced technologies, specialist infantry, air dominance and unconventional warfare.
