Esteemed diplomatic facilitators, please find attached the location and borders of the Meritocratic Mandate of Cascadia, a melt-pot of immigrants and compliant natives created in the early 1700s when, according to legend, Europeist bureaucrats and officers were visited by a pair of wise men calling themselves the Brothers Margharita. They spoke of a mandate from heaven to create a pure meritocractic state in the wilderness of the American West, a place where all citizens were given resources commensurate with their ability and work ethic - where labour and wisdom was rewarded without being crushed like in the capitalist and royalist states. Soon the Mandate established a number of frontier towns which blossomed into cities as immigrants from around the world flocked to the promise of pure total meritocracy. The Brothers Margharita were never seen again, but most citizens believe they will return in the Mandate's time of need.
