North Dakota



North Dakota is the largest state by both population and area in the Minnesotan Republic in north-central North America. It was formerly a U.S. state before the Nogales nuclear war. It is the only state in the Minnesotan Republic that corresponds to the entire territory of a former U.S. state. The state has a population of 1,741,872 as of the 2295 census, making it the most populous and largest by land area state in the country. The state's capital is Bismarck and its largest city is Fargo.

North Dakota borders Rushmore to the southwest, East River and very briefly Traverse to the southeast, Lake Country to the east, the Canadian provinces of Manitoba and Saskatchewan to the north, and the Yellowstonian state of Ammachuke to the west.

Politics
North Dakota is a heavily Conservative state in Minnesotan politics, as it had been in U.S. politics prior to the Nogales nuclear war.
