Texas seceded at earliest opportunity in 1989. The Lone Star State now is a
major player in the North American sphere. With industrial giants Militech and
Petrochem, as well as the smaller firms Carrington and Ewing Oil within its
borders, a steady supply of money into the national coffers is guaranteed.
Now, let's
get things straight: no-one pays any income tax here, nor does the Corps pay
any business taxes. What the Corp do pay for however is the
rent for space for
expanding and prospecting. In return for this, the benign Texan government
keeps any unwanted competitors out. The citizenry does only pay for their
bullets which as per usual is taxed to 20% as seen in Home Of The Brave.
Texas is at friendly terms with USA and Gods Country as well as NEF.The relations
with the feminist CSA and the traditionally macho Texas remain strained however.
As for Mexico, the only thing preventing a war is the fact that both nations are
packing nuclear heat...
