| The '''United States of America''' was a federal constitutional republic comprising over sixty different districts. The country was situated almost entirely in the western hemisphere: its fifty contiguous states (four of which being technically commonwealths),<ref>[[Wikipedia:U.S. State|Wikipedia]]</ref> and Washington, D.C., the capital district, lay in central North America between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, bordered by Canada to the north and Mexico to the south; the state of Alaska is in the north-west of the continent with Canada to its east, and the state of Hawaii is in the mid-Pacific. U.S. territories, or insular areas, are scattered around the Caribbean and Pacific. As of the present, it has the third largest population on Earth, and the largest economy on Earth. As of 2525, the United States has formed a loose association with Mexico and Canada to form the [[United Republic of North America]].

| ==United Nations==
| |
| It is supposed that [[New York City]] in the state of New York is the location of the supreme United Nations headquarter, commanding the [[UNSCDF|UNSC Defense Force]], [[Colonial Administration Authority]], and the [[Colonial Military Administration]] as it was currently based there in the 21st century but it could also be in Paris in the country of France. However [[HIGHCOM]], the High Command of the UNSC is based in [[Sydney]], [[Australia]]. It may have been reorganized upon the formation of the [[United Earth Government]] into the [[United Republic of North America]].

| ===United Nations Space Command===
| |
| The [[UNSC]] probably has hundreds of bases in the United States. One such facility is the [[Chawla Base|ONI Chawla Base]] in Boston, Massachusetts. Although, many more have been mentioned.{{Verify source}}

| | |
| ===United Republic of North America===
| |
| The United States, along with [[Canada]] and [[Mexico]], have formed the [[United Republic of North America]]<ref>''[[Halo 3]]'', level ''[[Floodgate]]''</ref>. However, the time of the formation is currently unknown.

| ==Locations Of Note==
| |
| *[[Chawla Base]] in [[Boston]] was an [[ONI]]-controlled and directed UNSC base that held the [[Deep-Space Artifact]] the [[Covenant]] were after.
| |
| *[[Cleveland]] was one of the locations attacked by the Covenant during the [[Battle of Earth]].
| |
| *Tactical Autonomous Robotic Defense System Testing Facility in [[Chicago]], Illinois, which forms the Multiplayer level [[Foundation (Level)|Foundation]] of [[Halo 2]]
| |
| *[[New York]] is an important location on one of the [[ILB]] stories and it's also home to some of the main characters.
| |
| *[[Sergeant Avery Johnson]] grew up in the [[Greater Chicago Industrial Zone]] (formerly [[wikipedia:Chicago|Chicago, Illinois]]).
| |
| | |
| ==Trivia==
| |
| *Although many other countries in the [[Halo universe]] have undergone radical change both politically and territorially, the United States would appear to have maintained some element of its sovereignty following the rise of the [[United Earth Government]]. Though this is not explicitly stated in Halo canon, in I Love Bees [[Rani Sobeck]] makes direct reference to the [[wikipedia:Fifth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution|Fifth Amendment]], implying that the [[wikipedia:United_States_Constitution|Constitution]] is still the foundation for law in 26th-century America. This is further supported by the continued existence of the [[wikipedia:Internal_Revenue_Service|IRS]], and several characters in Halo canon being described as Americans.
