'''Tussenland''' ([[Amerikaens]]: ''Tussenlandt,'' French: ''Toussenlande''), officially the '''Federation of Tussenland''', is a nation in North America.

Along with [[Mexico]], Tussenland stretches across the American continent bordering both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.

The creation of the Land Agency eventually led to the establishment of [[Crÿnssensland]] and [[Ruytersland]] and the expulsion of many indigenous Americans to [[Opdamsland]].

In 1927, President [[Maurits Teysmin]] proposed a pre-emptive strike against [[Alyeska]] to neuter [[Russia|Russian influence]]. This was vastly unpopular, leading to the election of President [[Cornelis Laurensz]] in 1929 & Tussenland's involvement in the [[Great War]].

Laurensz's blunder was considered a national embarassment, with the National Assembly forcibily removing him from office not long after.
