About this ebook
Welcome to the year 2163 AD. It has been 144 years since the 2019 collapse of the government of the United States of America. In the aftermath of that collapse, several regional governments were organised across the North American continent. Now, in the seventh decade of the twenty-second century, the various North American governments are being invited to unite in a new coast-to-coast federation, known as The Federal Union of Independent North American States, (the FUINAS), under a constitution in many ways similar to the United States Constitution of 1789. These governments, however, in order to help keep the FUINAS from suffering a fate similar as that of the United States of America, want certain guarantees that weren’t in the original US Constitution written into the FUINAS Constitution. These guarantees, known as the “Fourteen Principles of Federalism,” an analysis of each of them, and the justification for their inclusion in the FUINAS Constitution, are the subject of The Federalist Manifesto of 2163 AD.
Paul R. Hanks
Paul R. Hanks, composer, guitarist, translator/interpreter, teacher, incurable history buff, and most recently, writer, presents to the public his first book: The Federalist Manifesto of 2163 AD. He and his wife, Pat, live on a rural Lake Erie peninsula.

A Word from the Author
27113.jpgHow will future generations look back on our time? Will they see what we think of as our most pressing issues with the same degree of importance that we attach to them? Or, will other historical factors be plainly visible to them that we cannot yet see; factors that will require time to emerge before they can be clearly noted, studied, and interpreted? The Federalist Manifesto of 2163 AD presents a fictional view about what Americans living in the seventh decade of the 22nd century might have learned from our time, about how they might evaluate our era, and about how they might adjust themselves accordingly. The manuscript was finished prior to the end of the year 2012. Everything the book presents as possibly having happened beyond that time was fictional at the time it was written. What the future holds for the United States of America remains to be seen, and how Americans living in the 2160’s will see our times can only be, of course, the purest of speculation. And now, may I invite you to come along on an imaginary journey to the seventh decade of the 22nd century?
Editorial Note—July 4, 2163 AD
27116.jpgThe States and the Federal Government of the Federal Union of Independent North American States, (along with the other governments of the world whose official language is English), in order to help preserve and protect the integrity of the English language, both in its spoken and written forms, do whole-heartedly and enthusiastically endorse and adopt the Oxford Orthographic and Grammatical Standards,
as adopted by the Royal Academy of Arts and Letters, as ratified in the city of London, in the year 2084. All publications by the Federal Government of the Federal Union of Independent North American States reflect these uniform standards in grammar, syntax, and spelling.
Preface
27118.jpgHis Brittanic Majesty acknowledges the said United States, viz., New Hampshire, Massachusetts Bay, Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia, to be free, sovereign and independent states, that he treats with them as such, and for himself, his heirs, and successors, relinquishes all claims to the government, propriety, and territorial rights of the same and every part thereof.
So reads Article 1 of the Treaty of Paris of 1783, in which His Brittanic Majesty,
George III, acknowledged, and legally recognised, that each one of the former British colonies listed above were "free, sovereign, and independent" States.
In 1787, just after the adjournment of the convention in which the United States Constitution had been drafted, a woman was reported to have asked Benjamin Franklin, "Well, doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?" Dr. Franklin was said to have given the following reply: "A republic, madame, if you can keep it." The people of the United States of America kept that government from 1789 until it collapsed in the years between 2017 and 2019.
Now, in the year 2163, 144 years after the collapse of the United States of America became final, most of the various governments of North America have decided to unite anew, in another continent-wide federation. The advantages for them to do so are numerous. However, the reservations, doubts, and fears that they have about doing so have seemed just as great, or even greater, than many of
