Butte is a sovereign city-nation of Montana — big sky ranching, mountain passes, mineral wealth. Montana sits above it as the federation head, the Crown of the bloc, the way Washington DC once stood over America. Butte runs its own treasury, its own resources, and it offers citizenship to anyone who asks. Claim it, found your nation, and your capital lands on the real coordinates of Butte.

Apply for CitizenshipMontana is the Crown
Montana doesn't compete with its cities — it presides over them as the federation head, the seat of the bloc, the way Washington DC once stood over America. It sets the bloc budget, fields the federal army (108,720 soldiers, 3,951 tanks) and holds a balanced posture. If you go to war, you can pay the Crown in SFC dollars to fight alongside you, provided it's backing three or fewer wars at that moment.
