History
The Nova Brittanica Isles were discovered by Sir Francis Drake, later colonized in 1653 by the British. During the American Revolution, Nova Brittanica colonialists sent their colonial militia to attack New York. The Americans attempted to conquer the islands during the War of 1812, but were also unsecsessful. During the American Civil War, naval assaults from Nova Brittanica hit both sides. Shortly afterwards Nova Brittanica became a kingdom in the UK, insead of a colony. King Micah was their first king.
King Starrus, first son of Micah, lead the nation during World War I. He died of an unknown disease shortly afterwards. His brother Houghton took control, even though he was insane. The people lead a short bloody revolution against him after he killed parliament. Now there is the Democratic Republic of Nova Brittanica.
Nova Brittanica was quite prosperpous, and was an influence in World War II. The Republic was still prosperous, yet cautious. They timidly sent out small forces in the Cold War to protect other republics.
Then the Republican Party sent out assassins to kill the newly elected President and Vice-President. They were angry about the collapsing state of the environment. Soon all out Civil War broke out, and eventually the Northerners won, who were the remnants of the old government. Afterwards the Nova Brittonians created economic alliances with several nations. The Nova Brittonians then won the British Londinian Civil War. When British Londian's Crown Prince rebelled, Nova Brittonian forces brought him down, and was given half of his territory as a reward. The Nova Brittonians were then invaded by Nazi forces, but they were repelled. Nova Brittanica then set up a colony on the moon, creating the birth of the Imperial Democratic Republic.

IC:

Addressed to the Offices of Mr. Abraham Washington & George Hamilton:

The Empire of Licentium hopes to extend the branch of friendship today to the Democratic Republic of Nova Brittanica. As a growing force in this bright new world, it is important for like minded nations to band together. We hope that in our efforts to prosper, we can unite under a common goal. Ergo, we extend to you an offer of economic and political alliance. Should you accept; we can discuss the economic specifics and perhaps talk of an embassy exchange. We eagerly await your reply.

After consultation with the President and Vice-President we are afraid we must refuse an alliance with a nation such as yours.

I personally found a blank map from here (http://geography.about.com/library/blank/blxindex.htm), then added city locations using Photoshop, since I lack Paint.
