"Consider America a rotting warehouse filled with vermin. We must take all that we can from it before it falls in on itself. It must be stripped clean. The smallest germ, once planted, can spread to kill the largest giant."
Kim Jong-un[src]


The New Korean Federation of Occupied America, commonly known as New America or Liberated States of America,[1] was a puppet state of the Greater Korean Republic in the former Western United States. It was established on January 16, 2026[2] after the Korean People's Army invaded America in 2025 and subsequently dividing the western United States from the east by irradiating the Mississippi River. It appears in Homefront.

Description

The New Korean Federation of Occupied America consists of the Western United States under GKR occupation. The puppet state was ruled by the Korean People's Army in which they were tasked to siphon and export the Western United States' natural resources to Korea.[3] The NKFOA was effectively divided from the Eastern United States after KPA forces irradiated the Mississippi River, turning it into an impassable and inhospitable barrier, to prevent U.S. military forces from overwhelming the KPA occupation.

Citizens living in Occupied America are oppressed and terrorized by the KPA in which many are "evacuated" into detainment camps for forced labor and/or reeducation, or sent to execution. Since the start of the occupation, various guerrilla groups such as the American Resistance and some scattered U.S. military units launched attacks against Korean personnel and installations. However, these attacks were usually met with severe reprisals, bringing more violence to the civilian population and the creation of stricter laws.[4]

The KPA do not completely hold any presence in less valued areas, which were badly damaged by the EMP attack and left unrepaired, and leaving American settlements in these affected areas isolated from the world.[1] Some bandit groups, such as survivalists, settled in these ungoverned regions where they preyed on both KPA personnel and Americans.

In late 2027, the NKFOA began to waver as the U.S. Armed Forces, with aid from the Resistance, launched a major offensive on San Francisco and succeeded in taking control of the city. The American victory in the Bay Area became a turning point in the guerrilla war against the Korean occupation, as the U.S. military planned to retake the occupied states with impending military support from the European Union.

Flag

Flag of the New Korean Federation of Occupied America

The flag of the NKFOA features the United States (Star Spangled Banner) flag in a red hue, with the logo of the Korean People's Army in the center. This would indicate a country specifically built out of a military regime. It is mentioned that most of the equipment confiscated from the U.S. military by the KPA bears the flag. It is likely that the KPA hastily painted over the Star Spangled Banner markings already on the equipment.

The KPA apparently cared little to update the U.S. flag to reflect the occupied states as the KPA had been focus on controlling the Western U.S. rather than the entire continental U.S.[3] It is likely they keep it as is for propaganda purpose.

Oddly, the Star Spangled Banner and local state flags can still be seen flying above KPA controlled towns such as Montrose, Colorado. The KPA likely has no reason to remove the flags, keeps them for propaganda, or resistance fighters continuously replace the flags after the KPA has stripped them down.

Emblem

Emblem of NKFOA in Homefront

The emblem of the NKFOA is a modified version of the North Korean emblem, showing the occupied territories of the Western United States superimposed on what is apparently the Kim Jong-un Dam (which was formerly Hoover Dam) that replaced the Sup'ung Dam.

Government

The NKFOA was a puppet state of the Greater Korean Republic and was ruled directly by the Korean People's Army. Allegedly its governing bodies were in "transitory roles" until the Americans "achieve" Juche and were able to maintain peace and order on their own.[1] The GKR set up a military headquarters in San Diego, CA in order to "aid the glorious liberation of the American people."[1]

After the invasion, the KPA had took over former U.S. military bases, airports, industrial sites, sports arenas, Big Box Stores, college campuses, etc. The KPA divided the NKFOA into Areas of Responsibility — based on the Unified Combatant Command structure of the U.S. military — in which these areas were designated around general purpose output and potential for KPA use.[9] Hawaii and the West Coast cities were used as export hubs for oil and technology to Asia. The Rocky Mountain and Midwestern states were divided into areas for agriculture, machinery, oil, and ores factories.[10] Several Special Zones were set up and placed under more direct authority, with a heavier number of KPA troops.[10]

Collaborators were encouraged to support the Occupational Forces by informing on criminal or resistance activities.[2]

Human Rights

Removal of Citizens

KPA removing citizens from their homes in Napa, California on March 18, 2026.

The NKFOA operated on the civil legal system used throughout the Greater Korean Republic.[1] Contrarily to the GKR's propagandistic claims of "helping" and "protecting" the American people, and respecting international laws for prisoners of war,[2] the people living in Occupied America were brutally and inhumanely treated by the Occupational Forces. Under the direct orders of Kim Jong-un, the Occupational Forces have imprisoned, starved, and killed an unknown number of men, women, and children that are deemed as "impure".[1] During the initial invasion approximately eighty-thousand people were deemed as dissidents — consisting of thought leaders, local politicians, bloggers, and student protesters — and were gathered and executed with their remains disposed in mass gravesites.[10]

A loose conglomerate of autonomously operated Military Tribunals and death squads administer nominal jurisdiction over occupied areas.[1] There was no independent judiciary committee and no recognition of individual human rights. The legal system was a weapon used to push state ideology on the masses, with rulings based purely on the theory of Juche.[1] Citizens were subject to random detentions, "disappearances" and extrajudicial killings without the right of council, trial or judicial review of any kind.[1][2] Punishments and executions were handled in various ways in the different Areas of Responsibility depending on the Area's commanding officer, such as hanging condemned prisoners from electricity poles in local townships or conducting nighttime executions with the disposal of bodies done by cremation.[11]

U.S. citizens who were conscripted to work for the Occupational Forces were threatened with imprisonment and "rehabilitation" if they refused to collaborate.[10] Hostage-taking of family members were also practiced to further enforced the loyalty of American "employees."[10]

Civilians were required to carry biometric ID on their body at all times and were subjected to random search and at ID checkpoints.[2] A mandatory curfew was enforced beginning from 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM.[2] Violators to these rules would be sentenced before a "liberation" military tribunal.[2]

Demographics

Race and Citizens

"I was scared, but he let me pass...just another dirty kid on a bike." - Resistance courier. San Francisco, CA. July 17, 2026.

The NKFOA was a "melting pot of dissimilar races, ethnicity and nationalities."[1] Prior to and during the early days of the occupation there have been race riots in the West coast. Korean immigrants, Korean-Americans, and anyone of East Asian descent were attacked by American rioters out of anger towards the GKR. Hispanic and Latino Americans were also attacked due to anti-immigration laws and hostile sentiment.[12]

There were many refugees fleeing into the Mexican and Canadian borders or detained in detainment camps. The KPA was often hostile to religious groups. KPA specialist Salmusa executed a Christian radio crew. There was at least one Muslim American imprisoned at the Montrose Labor Camp.

Health

Since the GKR's attack and invasion of America in 2025, medical facilities and supplies west of the Mississippi were low to non-existent. Few American citizens in occupied territories had access to proper medical treatment outside Occupation People's Hospitals, which lack organization, supplies, standard medical technologies and sanitization. The infant mortality rate in America had nearly doubled in the last 2 years (13.78 deaths/1000 live births).[1]

Famine, disease, malnutrition and murder stemming from the occupation of America have contributed to a reduction the average life expectancy of American citizens by 48.3% (53.98 years).[1]

Economy

The GKR established a nationalized work system where food, shelter, healthcare and education were allegedly offer free to the American people. With no uniform currency, no privatized businesses and no valued capital; goods, aid and services are largely exchanged via barter or through state controlled distribution centers. In reality these centers were used by the occupying forces to implement radical swings in supply to destabilize the population. An excess of 85% of the population lived below the poverty level.[1]

American civilians were offered to work under a "labor-for-food" program, and even encouraged to turning over firearms to the authorities in exchange for food.[2]

Natural Resources

Although large amounts of America's natural resources have been depleted, enough reserves still remain that would have brought the U.S. back to past levels if carefully regulated under a strict rationing system. Under the false pretenses of a "liberation for a better America", the Korean occupation's main goals had been the systematic excavation of natural resources to then be transported outside of North America.[1] The GKR's Resources Extraction Operation deliberately manipulated the American people, using them as slave labor to drain the occupied territories of its remaining resources (natural, technological and intellectual).[1]

Western America's resources are shale oil, coal, ore, copper, lead, molybdenum, phosphates, uranium, bauxite, gold, iron, mercury, nickel, potash, silver, tungsten, zinc, petroleum, natural gas and timber.[1] The KPA established large-scale facilities across the occupied territories, with particular focus on large oil shale deposits in the mid-western United States, as they use advanced extraction technology developed by China.[1]

Communications

Almost 95% of all electronic means of communication within the continental United States were destroyed in the 2025 EMP blast. After the occupation, mobile telephone communication was entirely IP based with little capacity for voice communication. Limited text messaging capabilities were the primary means of communication in occupied America.[1] The Internet was made up of an ad hoc OLPC mesh based network requiring computers or laptops to be no more than 1 mile apart for connection.[1]

Media in the NKFOA such as KPAR 88.3 FM, among others, were state-controlled. There are several underground networks in the Occupied States, such as the Voice of Freedom which continues to broadcast to the American people via secured radio channels and denounces the GKR at every opportunity. The GKR had made the viewing of these broadcasts and reporting on the Voice of Freedom illegal under penalty of death.

Transportation

There were more than 7,000 airports, 90,000 km of railroad and 3,000,000 km of roadways in Occupied America.[1] Modern methods of transport have been severely limited due to the severe economic crisis and the effects of the EMP blast of 2025. The EMP blast relegated 98% of airplanes and approximately to 90% of all automobiles useless.[1]

The EMP blast coupled with the general neglect of the Occupational Forces resulted in the destruction of the American transport network.[1] The Occupational Forces used surviving remaining railway systems for the transfer of coal and oil supplies to the west coast for shipment to Asia.[1] The Occupational Forces also had a nationalized slave train running from central Texas to Oklahoma City and a cargo rail running from San Francisco to Salt Lake City. Without working roadways, Americans in the occupied areas were isolated and disconnected from both locally and globally.[1]

Diplomatic Relations

The NKFOA was only internationally recognized by the Greater Korean Republic's member states and their allies.

United States

The United States is in a state of war against the GKR and does not recognize the validity of the occupation of its sovereign territory. The federal government supported strong yet fragmented resistance to the occupational forces.[1]

Separated by the irradiated Mississippi River, the NKFOA controls a five mile area across the eastern side of the Mississippi by radiation. In addition to the deadly radiation in the area, every bridge crossing the river is guarded on both sides by ground combat drones operated remotely from nearby KPA stations. So far, only Ben Walker has been known to cross this border into the United States.

Canada

Numerous American refugees are aided by the Resistance in crossing the border into Canada, sometimes via tunnels. There are some U.S. military forces who fell back north into Canada and are likely working with the Canadian military and regrouping to retake the United States.

Despite the apparent dissolution of the NATO defense alliance due to global economic woes, it is presume Canada does not recognize the NKFOA due to Canada's long standing alliance with America and the Koreans' oppression. Additionally, Canadian territory may have been radiated due to the effects of Operation Water Snake.

Mexico

Separated by the Rio Grande and the Mojave Desert, numerous American refugees attempt to escape across the Mexican border, some in tunnels formerly used by drug cartels. Mexican Federales were ordered to shoot border crossers on sight. Ben Walker mentioned in a news report that yachts with women and children from the Port of Galveston sailed to Mexico, in which it is possible the Mexican government (or at least the Mexican people) is now accepting refugees.[13]
