The area is controlled by the Mexico Norte Province, a confederalist Mexican faction with considerable resources and several northern Mexican states under its control - to some extent.

PainGov attacked SD using nuclear weapons during the 2.nd American civil war and thereby destroying much of the amassed forces there.
