United States of North America

United States of North America

The United States of North America (USNA) is a fictitious country in "A Mind Forever Voyaging" (AMFV), a science fiction text adventure game by Infocom set in the year 2031. The USNA is the result of a fictional union between the United States and Canada. Although the text is not very clear, it appears that the United States Constitution is still in effect, and that the Canadian provinces individually joined the Union in the late 20th or early 21st century. Football (soccer) and baseball appear to be the most popular sports, while the metric system is employed in television weather forecasts. Washington, D.C. is the capital city.

In 2031, the USNA is beset with numerous domestic and foreign policy challenges. The protagonist in AMFV, named PRISM, is a sophisticated computer with artificial intelligence, who must determine whether or not a package of political reforms (dubbed the "Plan for Renewed National Purpose") will succeed in resolving those problems.
