The Republic of Huron is a country located in the Midwestern region of North America. It consists of 5 regions and 1 capital territory. It shares borders with Pennsylvania, Delmarva, the Gulf Confederacy, The Midwestern Federation, and Dakota. It has a population of 47 million and an area of 305,368 SqMi. The capital and most populous city is Chicago.

Pre-Columbian Era
Paleo-Indian cultures were the earliest in North America, with a presence in the Great Plains and Great Lakes areas from about 12,000 BCE to around 8,000 BCE. Prior to European settlement, Iroquoian people lived around Lake Erie, and Algonquian peoples around the rest of the lakes, and a variety of other indigenous nation-peoples including the Menominee, Ojibwa, Illinois, Pottawatmie, Huron, Shawnee, Erie, Fox, Miami, Meskwaki and Ho-Chunk (Winnebago). With the first permanent European settlements in the early seventeenth century, all these nation-peoples developed an extensive fur trade with French, Dutch, and English merchants in the St. Lawrence, Hudson and Mohawk Valleys, and Hudson's Bay, respectively.

Colonial Period
The first French explorations of the Illinois Country were in the first half of the 17th century, led by explorers and missionaries based in Canada. Étienne Brûlé explored the upper Illinois River in 1615 but did not document his experiences. Joseph de La Roche Daillon reached an oil spring at the northeasternmost fringe of the Mississippi River basin during his 1627 missionary journey.

Over the next decades missions, trade posts, and forts were established in the region. By 1714, the principal European, non-native inhabitants were Canadien fur traders, missionaries and soldiers, dealing with Native Americans, particularly the group known as the Kaskaskia. The main French settlements were established at Kaskaskia, Cahokia, and Sainte Genevieve. By 1752, the population had risen to 2,573.

After the Seven Years' War between Britain and France, the Illinois Colony was given to the British Empire and was combined with the Province of Quebec.

Owing to an influx of Loyalist refugees from the American Revolutionary War, the demographics of Quebec came to shift and now included a substantial English-speaking element from the former Colonies.

Post-Colonial Era
Starting in July of 1778 a wave of rebellions tore through the southern portion of Quebec. In 1779 the Revolutionaries met up and agreed to name their future country "Huron".

In June 1780, Virginia agreed to ally itself with Huron and began sending troops through Huron. One month later, in July, the Huronians and Virginians stormed Southwestern Huron, surrounding the British controlled towns in the area, and capturing the major town of Kaskaskia. In 1783, much of Detroit had been captured by the Huronians. In 1787, 9 years after the war began, Britain, Virginia, and the Revolutionaries met up to sign a peace treaty and Britain agreed to recognize the independence of Huron.

At first, the government of Huron resembled martial law, but soon after a more stable government was created. In 1787, Huron became the first country in North America to abolish slavery. The first presidential elections were held a few months after independence, and Arthur Clair ended out winning, though he was impeached 2 years later and replaced by Charles Byrd.

In 1788, Marietta was chosen as the capital of the nation. In present-day, Marietta is a tiny town in southeast Huron with a population of just 14,000. The capital later changed to Chillicothe in 1799.

On August 7th, 1789, Huron applied to join the United States, and joined on March 1, 1803. In 1833, the capital was changed to Chicago.

During the Great American War, Huron allied itself with the Union and deployed 961,379 troops. Huron's central location made it an important region for supplies and troop movements from the Eastern Union to the Southwestern Confederacy.

After the war, Huron became and agricultural and industrial powerhouse, with booming urban areas such as Chicago, Detroit, Indianapolis, and Columbus. In October 1871, the Great Chicago Fire destroyed downtown Chicago and the Presidential Residency was also burnt down.

In the early 20th century, the economy started booming after the invention of the automobile. During the Great Depression, urbanization decreased. During World War II, Huron deployed many troops in Europe after the Declaration of War by the United States. The war effort led to a decline in manufacturing of non-war goods.

In 2017, President Rauner passed a bill prohibiting police from illegal immigrants because of their immigration status.
