The State of Africa

Ghana - Open conflict with the Legion

With the unchecked spread of the Saharan desert, Ghana and its dense system of rivers and rich soil became highly sought after by more militaristic neighbors, the government of Ghana had begun to supply 'Les Yeux de la Terre', the largest eco-terrorist group active in Burkina Faso, in an effort to keep that nation too distracted with internal conflict to move against Ghana.
The gambit backfired after five years of quiet success, as the Ghanian support was discovered, allowing the Ivory Coast and Burkina Faso to declare war with legal protection. Today, Ghana exists as little more than a 50km swath around the capital, Accra, and has become little better then a free port for piracy and smuggling in the region.

Guinea - Legion Controlled

Having never recovered from the economic degradation caused by the Ebola outbreak of the early 21st century, coupled with the rapid loss of farm land and water due to the spread of the Sahara desert, Guinea no longer exists as a state. It has become a lawless region of city states, ruled by various vicious warlords. Much of the nation is without power or running water.

Guinea-Bissau - Legion Controlled

Decades of severe deforestation and over-grazing of cattle herds has led to severe deforestation. Despite ample rivers, lakes, and underground aquifers in the region, Guinea-Bissau was devastated by the spread of the Sahara desert. Coupled with constant raiding by Guinean warlords, the nation no longer exists.

Ivory Coast - Legion Controlled

The decades following the 2011 civil war were hard on Cote d'Ivoire, and by the mid-20s it looked like the country would collapse into a fresh internal conflict, likely leading to the separation of various districts. President Ibrahima Aboubacar used evidence of Ghana's funding of eco-terrorist groups in Burkina Faso as an excuse for military action against Ghana, which led to a huge surge in public support, especially as resource rich Ghanian territory helped fuel the nation's economy. Today, President-For-Life Ibrahima Aboubacar still rules.
