Idaho in Supervolcano
Idaho was badly hit when the Yellowstone Supervolcano erupted. Even though it was generally up-wind of the eruption, falling ash covered the state. No one was sure how many feet, but the U.S. wouldn't have the fleet of bulldozers and trucks to remove it.[1]
Idaho in Worldwar
During the Race Invasion of Tosev 3, the Race's Conquest Fleet were able to establish a base in Idaho. Jens Larssen passed through Idaho on his way to scout out Hanford, Washington as a possible site for the American atomic bomb project.[2]
