Description
So this is basically an ASB map for a Code Geass ISOT crossover with Pellegrino Shots's Zhirinovsky's Russian Empire (you can get it on Kindle). It's basically the United States and the Union of Independent States in 1997 (before the Kosovo Missile Crisis*) ISOTed to the world of Code Geass during the Black Rebellion. When both Zhirinovsky and Bob Kerrey (who becomes the President of the United States) discover that they're in a different world, new opportunities arise with the presence of the three global superpowers of the Code Geass world.After the ISOT, Zhirinovsky's Union of Independent States discover their new world to be perfectly ripe for chaos. Immediately, they began to make preparations for the invasion of Europe and the Middle East (although the anti-Chinese ranting that Zhirinovsky makes also terrify the Chinese Federation as they are also shocked at how much territory they've lost to the UIS as a result of the ISOT.
At the same time, Bob Kerrey is stunned and terrified to learn that his new neighbors in what used to be Canada and Mexico are replaced with an absolutist empire that displays the worst excesses of the British Empire he knew well. From the south, the Holy Britannian Empire relocated its imperial government to Mexico City after Pendragon was absorbed into the ISOTed United States of America. Now the US is also disappointed to learn that only Australia remains the only democratic nation in the world.
The result of the ISOT is that the UIS launches its invasion of the Balkans in order to secure its control over its occupied territory in the Republic of Serbian Krajina (the ISOT also affects UIS-occupied territories and Yugoslavia, but nations like Bulgaria and Greece are not from the Zhirinovsky-verse). Romania is shorn of its Dobruzhan province and CG!Bulgaria has been awarded not only Dobruzha, but Macedonia as well, to the chagrin of the Code Geass verse Macedonians who insist that they're a separate nation and not part of Bulgaria.
Out of the former territories of the MidEast Federation, only Iran and Kurdistan have been liberated by the UIS Army, though operating under General Chechevatov, one of Alexander Lebed's most trusted men. The Iranians of the Code Geass universe along with the captured EU scientists who are experts in Knightframe technology give the UIS the secrets of Knightmare technology, although the UIS has enough nuclear weapons to destroy entire Britannian industrial centers. Likewise, the US also possesses enough nukes to destroy any other city in the world, as well as Britannian military bases.
Sadly, it is the UIS who stands to gain from the vast opportunity to exploit the living hell out of the clusterfudge in Africa and to establish what has become known as the School of the Africas where children are being sent to train as child paramilitary soldiers who also go on to commit war crimes. Luckily for the Kerrey administration, the Order of the Black Knights are willing to team up with the US military in order to eject the Britannians out of Japan, as well as to reclaim northern Japan from the UIS-backed Tohoku Committee (some Poles who belonged to the USA of the Zhirinovsky verse are appalled at their similarity with the old Soviet-backed Lublin Committee).

I loved Zhirinovsky's Russian Empire. Reading about Zhirinovsky's genocidal antics makes me fortunate OTL only endured Boris Yeltsin's drunken antics. It is frightening to think we could have lived in a world where the downfall of Communism was replaced with something even more insane.
Why does UIS have such a military advantage? Isn't warfare more advanced in the world of Code Geass then in our world?
How does the Britannia elite view the US? Do they see Americans as filthy slobs devoid of modernity?
Is America in a severe disadvantage, and how is it coping with the loss of global trade and oil supplies?

To answer your questions:
1) To an extent, the warfare of the world of Code Geass is a bit more advanced than the military of the UIS, but at this point the FLEIJA bombs were only made in dozens. The UIS's nuclear missile stockpile would have been in thousands, but most of them were decommissioned under the Billion Kalashnikovs and One Nuke philosophy. As you may recall, the UIS simply ships its own weapons to rebel groups just for the sake of destabilizing the entire planet.
2) The Britannians would definitely hate the Americans even more than the Elevens, because they are a living reminder of the failed rebellion of Washington. Needless to say, the Britannians will not like any American textbook that depicts Washington as a hero who overthrew British rule in the Thirteen Colonies, and the Americans will gleefully support anti-Britannian resistance groups there.
3) America is at a severe disadvantage here, with the sudden loss of Middle Eastern oil supplies. However, it might have been a blessing in disguise as domestic oil supplies would kick up, and Al Gore in this universe will become universally hated for his green energy policy.
Now tragically, it is the world of Code Geass itself that will be subjected to the genocidal antics of Mad Vlad, and UIS made weapons will even end up in the hands of groups like the Black Knights and Peace Mark. Euro-Britannia would definitely be wiped out for good, and the Euro-Britannian nobility would find themselves locked up in the infamous Black Dolphin prison, or be sent on a comfortable exile in a Novo Gorod. Needless to say that the Canada-US border would now become the largest FORTIFIED border in the world! However, the USA would have the biggest military advantage here, even over Britannia, as their nuclear stockpile is far larger than the UIS nuclear stockpile. Although their overseas bases have vanished, they could easily rebuild their bases in areas that are facing the Britannian threat.

1. In others words, while the world of Code Geass may have cool armored knights and a devastating form of mind control, an entire army having Kalishnikovs is still far more effective then 300 of those Knightmares. And thanks to having enough nukes, the Britannians and Europeans don't dare venture into the UIS.
Yeah, I always found "A Billion Kalishnikovs and One Nuke" to be that mix of scary and genius-if your someone trying to create global chaos.
2. I see. So the Britannians hatred of America is less about "hating freedom" then it would be learning about a nation that was the result of "rabble rouser Washington" toppled their divine rule. Still the nobility who regard American ideas as a dangerous threat to their power and prestige, and would try to use any form of propaganda to depict Americans as "barbaric, buffoonish, and irrational people."
Americans, in turn, would see Britannia as a horrific "what if", had Washington and others failed. And they would greatly dislike the Britannians, since their oppression and image makes them such easy people to make fun of.
3. If you recall the world of the Zhirinovsky's Russian Empire, Mad Vlad was able to create an energy crisis without even stopping the flow of oil. Just by opening his mouth, and later engineering the Dubai Crisis (another really genius strategy), Zhirinovsky raised the price of gas to unprecedented levels. Not through any real absence of oil supplies, but by creating the fear of an absence.
Now imagine of that absence were real. In the 1990s, America was still important almost half of its oil supplies. So the shock would be even worse than 1973, or even Zhirinovsky. Even if Kerrey pushes harsh measures (rationing, carpooling, North Dakota), I doubt America could plug the gap before the UIS starts getting some fun ideas.
Why would Al Gore be hated for pushing Green energy?
Anyways, I would love to write an AH.COM TL based of this scenario. If I did, would you let me?

First, it would be impossible for Zhirinovsky to manipulate the price of Sakuradite because the UIS might not have their own supply. However, Britannian over dependence on sakuradite might be exploited by the UIS through the disruption of the supply flow.
Second, big oil companies and the control of the sakuradite ores would be major factor in Al Gore's unpopularity. There isn't any investment in green energy yet, but gaining access to sakuradite supplies will involve a heavy set of concessions given by the US towards the three powers.

For the moment, none so far.
However, the US will eventually get the Gekka while the UIS will be forced to rely on stolen Sutherlands, Panzer Hummels and Gun Rus. However, Lebed and the others may try to accelerate some anti-KMF countermeasures, mainly EMP based weaponry. Because of the policy of "A Billion Kalashnikovs and One Nuke", the UIS has also started to ship arms to the Black Knights and any other anti-Britannian faction around the world.

This makes Charles look good by comparison.
And the Russians despite not having Knightmares are competent enough to give the Europa United a run for its money.
Imagine that, a UIS-backed Kaname Ohgi vs Zero was forced to accept American help.
