State Department Report - Updated Q4 1981
United States of America: 9/100. Viewed as a German puppet. Some cooperation, transport links, economic ties. Arms deals in place. Tensions over tacit support for Black Liberation Army and other dissenter organisations. Intrusion into Great Lakes territory and tensions in the Gulf of Mexico. Tensions over Haiti. MSA admitted to funding KKK, retaliatory bombings. MS plans to close Mississippi ports.
Pacific States of America: 23/100. Viewed as a Japanese puppet state carved out of the country. Political relations better than public attitudes - some cooperation, transport links, economic ties. Arms deals in place. Tensions over spread of organised crime from PSA into MSA. Shared attitudes in support of some persecuted minorities in the USA. Perceived deliberate attacks against PSA economic interests in MSA. Tensions over Haiti, suspicions growing.
Commonwealth of Canada: 23/100. Closely tied to German regime, Europa Pact member. However, public attitudes more favorable than with USA due to less severe racial policies. Major transport links connecting to USA run through MSA. MSA is fresh water importer. Tensions in the Great Lakes, MSA admitted to funding KKK, and smugglers apprehended and paraded.
Workers’ Republic of Mexico: 69/100. Major regional ally. Close ties since post-war period, improving since the institution of market reforms. Sent aid post-natural disaster. Haitian Papers Scandal but recovering.
Workers’ Republic of Cuba: 67/100. Regional ally, aligned with Mexico. Close ties since post-war period, tensions growing between Mexico and Cuba over reforms. Haitian Papers Scandal but recovering.
Workers’ Republic of Haiti: 55/100. Regional ally, aligned with Mexico. Close ties since post-war period, internal chaos due to ongoing Tontin Macoutes militia fighting against the government. Suspected fascist backing. Haitian Papers Scandal but recovering.
Empire of Japan: 14/100. Superpower, victorious power that launched an invasion. Poor relations continue more than 30 years later, but officially has full relations established, with embassies and diplomats exchanged. Suspicions growing.
German Reich: 10/100. Superpower, victorious power that launched an invasion. Poor relations continue more than 30 years later, but officially has full relations established, with embassies and diplomats exchanged. MSA admitted to funding KKK, USA conducted retaliatory bombing.
Commonwealth of Nations: 78/100. Allied nation, maintains connections mainly through passage agreements with Mexico.
United Republic of South Africa: 45/100. Basic relations established, prospects seem positive. Non-aligned, nationalist, vaguely left-wing government rose to power in 1976 and abolished apartheid. Led by former exile and revolutionary, Nelson Mandela. Regime remains beset by internal chaos and pro-Nazi terrorism. No formal diplomatic exchange, but relations improving.

House Committee on Un-American Activities (HUAC)
The House Committee on Un-American Activities was first established by the House of Representatives in 1938 as a special investigating committee tasked with investigating subversive activities, alleged disloyalty, and organisations suspected of having communist or fascist ties. Although like its predecessor committees HUAC initially targeted communist and left wing activists, with the growth of fascist activity in Europe and Asia, its focus began to shift. The key turning point demonstrating this shift in focus can be pinpointed to the "Yellow Report", supporting internment of Japanese-Americans following the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1942.
Remaining in operation throughout the Second World War, an incarnation of the Committee survived the peace within the Mountain States of America, where in 1949 a Progressive Congress re-tasked the focus of the Committee and established it as a permanent standing committee. Since this time, the HUAC has operated as a prominent tool of anti-fascism in the MSA, investigating and launching probes into suspected of subversion or propaganda that attacked "the form of government guaranteed by the Constitution." Alternatively lauded as the safeguarding force of democracy and derided as a witch hunt run by zealots, it remains a controversial committee in the House of Representatives.
Composed of nine (9) members, including the chairman of the committee, the HUAC draws its composition in the same manner as other committees - in proportion to the distribution of seats in the House of Representatives, based on the approval of party caucuses of proposals by the committee on committees.
The HUAC is capable of launching investigations and probes into a wide range of organizations, from unions to companies to political organizations. They are also capable of investigating individuals, levying charges against them to be considered by the House of Representatives in a vote if approved by the majority of the committee.
