The Central African States (CAS) saw its start in the huge collaborative effort by most all nations on Earth to prevent the 2031 impact of 17 cataclysmic-sized asteroids from hitting the planet. As part of the dramatic, multi-nation coordination, the African continent was provided a substantial amount of economic and structural support by the Eastern and Western nations. Large swaths of north, central and south Africa were turned into agricultural centers to better feed the world (in case of any asteroid diverts that failed) and central Africa itself saw a number of launch platforms erected to support the large number of orbital operations to take place.
Not only was the planet's efforts an unqualified success, but the results of the collaboration paid generous benefits to most nations, most notably those in central Africa. In most cases, instead of dismantling the spaceports built in the region, the Western Alliance and the new Eastern Coalition either provided the subject-matter experts for the Africans to continue using them, or provided the necessary education to African citizens to allow them to operate the sites themselves. Born into this period of assistance, with no obvious attempts to exploit, the nations of Angola, Burundi, Cameroon, the Central African Republic, Chad, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, the Republic of the Congo and Sao Tome organized their various assets (infrastructure, technology and education centers, personnel) into the CAS, in the first modern all-African space-faring organization. The peaceful inception similarly developed into a peaceful space presence: the CAS developed no defense-minded vessels, but instead focused first on asteroid mining vessels and, later, deuterium siphoning equipment, with the discovery of warp technology.
The Central African States had another influential role in Earth's early modern history: having witnessed the hugely constructive efforts of the UEDP to coordinate planetary assets and capabilities to solve poverty and suffering in those regions most stricken by the Post-Atomic Horror and, recalling the great accomplishments of the New United Nations in the pre-Swarm years between 2026 and 2031, the CAS proclaimed the Earth was now ready to face the interstellar neighborhood as one species. The CAS suggested a world government based on democracy and the advancement of all humanity and called for a world council to convene in rebuilt Paris to establish such a government. The UEDP was very accommodating in making sure such a proposal moved forward and a gathering of the Eastern Coalition, the newly re-united United States of America, the newly re-named African Confederation,and the leadership of the UEDP drafted the Traité d'Unification in Paris in 2031. The African Confederation was invited to be the first signatory to the 'birth certificate' of the new United Earth.
