Since My Acquisition of the United States follows the exploits of Holy lander Sir, an Austrian-born criminal who is tricked into buying the United States in an event known as the Big Lie. Sir becomes inadvertently trapped between several powerful international players, including the Monarch Brothers, who formerly leased the United States and continue to reside on the land. Sir must drive out the Monarch Brothers while establishing a shadow government to pass laws that increase his power. These laws and Sir’s deeds put the United States on the brink of war as world leaders begin to question Sir’s ability to maintain control.
