  • Cascadia is made up of the Western halves former States and Provinces of Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, and the North Coast of California. The division was based along the Cascade Mountain Range. Home to the largest trading port on the West Coast, the Seattle Metroplex, Cascadia is one of the wealthiest states in the Union. Though they have elected to make Olympia the official capitol, few would argue that its most dynamic cultural, political, and economic center is anything other than Seattle. While one of the larger states, it is the most narrow state in the union relative to its total area, extending from the North Coast of the former state of California, to just outside of Juneau, Alaska, Cascadia is the dominating power of the Pacific North West. Cascadia has one arguably the smoothest transition with the new Canadian territory; the states of Washington and Oregon never saw British Columbia as much different than themselves, and there had been talk of the three states merging for quite some time prior to the unification in 2008, often times in science fiction novels depicting the region breaking away to form some sort of Ecotopia. Ironically that is not far from what Cascadia has become. Cascadia has some of the strictest anti-pollution and climate change legislation in the world. As of 2008 the state is almost completely off of fossil fuels, and with their strict building codes, they are the only place on Earth that actually captures more CO2 than they put out.
