Summary
The Ohio Confederacy is a largely rural, isolationist country in midwest North America. Ohio's culture and modes of operation have been greatly influenced by militarization preceding the First Anglo-American War.
Government
Ohio is mostly ungoverned, with the state government having little other job than putting up bounties for criminals. The region has lived under this system for many decades, even before the Balkanization of The United States, due to the slow descent of the United States of America, which had pulled large amounts of federal funds for policing, schooling, and healthcare, from the rural midwest, while still expecting farming quotas to be fulfilled.
Urban Ohio
Centralization of the United States after the Year of the Blaze led to much of Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, Columbus, Cleveland, and Cincinatti, being rapidly depopulated. Since this rapid push for emigration, Cincinatti, Fort Wayne, and Cleveland have all been declared ghost towns, and scavenging their ruins is a common activity for rural citizens. Other cities have still held out, but cultural polarization has led to urban residents being outcasts in their own country. Most of Ohio is split between small towns of roughly 150 to 2,000, most of which are undocumented. As such, this makes a population estimate essentially impossible.
Culture of Paranoia
Since Operation Mossback, areas of Ohio and west D.C. have had a heavy culture of isolation, and paranoia towards the outside world. Where Operation Mossback taught the civilian militias in these areas to be suspicious of outsiders, and secure their operations, this has evolved into total paranoia towards almost anyone outside your social circle.
