Description
Here's another take on my own fanmade version with Future Compass. Though this one is based on the infamous Future Compass meme, depicting potential various outcomes/results of the setting, depending on what course of direction has been chosen in one path.Together with few cues from The New Order mod for the Hearts of Iron IV, I'm aiming to make the perfect template on future compass with crisp and original as possible. It will depend on how they are navigating the post-Gilead warlords, in attempting to choose the course of direction for the future of a shattered continent. In some addition, images are references to the Orwellian, Cold War, contemporary, SciFi, cybperpunk, solarpunk, and dystopic inspirations of the universe in the fanfic version of the Handmaid's Tale.
This is a work of fiction and fanmade. No political/ideological involvement and depiction will not be part of endorsement.

In the following decades after the death of the Lord's Regent Jacob Ziegler, his sandcastle of the global empire lies shattered and crumbled into a chaotic, post-apocalyptic warlordism as stranded loyalists, death/doomsday cults, messianic cults, religious extremists, Communists, syndicalists, fascists, supremacists, remnants, and neo-Soviets has garnered an opportunity to rose up against the crumbling authority with reports of mass riots, uprisings, and mutinies that are far remain unpredictable as global communications would collapse and instances of blackouts had darkened the planet.
According to the American cases, warlords has earned enough an opportunity to rose up and ousts the remaining local governors as Gilead's central authority continues to crumble apart and left loyalists stranded. Nick Blaine, the supposed leader were caught and stranded in Colorado as he orders the remaining Guardians to 'restore' the order in the former state as warlordism cuts off vital transportation links.
In the East, George Warren, one of the highest-ranking General of Guardians of the Faithful has assumed position as the 'temporary' leader of the Holy Gileadean Empire while tasking his military resources to put down an attempted uprisings and stabilizes the overall situation. However, one of his superior naval fleets were either lost or stranded as communications with his continental commanders were cut-off due to unforeseen circumstances following his predecessor's death, Warren has been tasked to 'reinforce' the border of the Atlantic District in exercising the precautions, although in reality, his actions were sending the messages of killing someone, like tourist or envoys who were trying to establish the diplomatic relations with the mad Field Marshal.
Every non-loyalist Districts were quickly fallen into the hands of warlords, cartels, bizarre cults, and others but it also allowed the remnants of the original Mayday to seize control of the regions that were already crumbled into anarchy. Remnants of the Cascadian Communes, Northwest Liberation Front, and the state national guards were coalesced into the Cascadian Refugee Zone as thousands of refugees from other districts had fled the grim reality of Gilead's own global empire that is already collapsed into oblivion.

For some trivia, I'll give the interesting influences:
- An Equal Society With Prosperity - is a reference to Star Trek's post-capitalist progressive society, in addition to an alluding temperate progressive victory.
- Ecological Communal Democratic Reforms - is a reference to the reformation of a reunited Northern America should Northwest District Garrison reunite the continent and pursues softer and drastic reforms before taking a decades-long transition into an ecological-communal democracy which enshrines the environmentalism and green progressivism.
- Red Roses Shines Much Better - is a reference to the electoral platforms/policies upon electing the left-wing Democratic Socialists of America through ending of corporate/neoliberal-led influence and fostering policies that brought the country into a prosperous and progressive society under the red roses, should political party win the possible election or a faction reunites the America
- A Repeat of New Bethlehem - is a reference to the potemkin project in The Handmaid's Tale, claiming that Gilead is 'liberalized' nation as there were no hanged corpses or handmaids sighted in the street. Very technocratic and paternalist-based vision should a dissent faction reunites America under a modified Black Eagle.
- International Protectorate Mandate - alludes to how a reorganized and powerful Antarctic Resistance, who have decided to go on with an adventure to rebuild the scarred planet by sending 'peacekeepers' of mercenaries, remnant national armies, warlord cliques, and mutineers in seeking to re-establish 'civilized order' by turning the entirety of North America into an international mandate. It was the most radically blessed ending with repercussions.
- A Better and Healed Constitution - should a remnant unifiers reunite the Northern America. It means in a translation from euphemistic/idiomatic form that a warlord clique who unified the United States and Canada should pursue reforms to ensure that a painful moments will never repeat again and the outcome is where a reformed United Federations, a successor to the United States and Canada democratizes.
- Death From Above - is a nod to TNO's After Midnight Imperial Airborne Brigade. It points out to the worst outcome wherein the Aerial Guardians, lead by a notorious General Pedro 'El Muerte' Garcia united the Northern America by the grace of machine guns, missiles, jets, drones, and noxious clouds. It will be dangerous and would turn the continent into a deadly wasteland afterwards.
