The People's Republic of the St. Lawrence, colloquially known as The St. Lawrence, is a sovereign state located in North America.

The area of what is now known as the St. Lawrence was first settled by English and French explorers. The first settlement was Quebec City by the French, followed by others such as Boston, Portland, and Montreal.

Before the end of the 18th century, the British invaded French Acadia, but the French were quick to retaliate. The Treaty of Utrecht forced Britain to cede their colonies in New England to France.

In 1803, the Republic of the St. Lawrence declared its independence from the French. The St. Lawrencites were able to gain their independence within a few years with the help of colonial powers that rival the French.

In 1960, a coup d'etat was successfully executed, ending the Republic era and establishing a Communist regime.

Aggressive towards its neighbors and having a large military, its most notable campaign was the Neu Memel Campaign. By the end of the war, the St. Lawrencites controlled about half of the land controlled by Neu Memel before the war.
