The Incorporated State of Issaquah-Snoqualmie is a small survivor state located in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains in the former US state of Washington. Due to irradiated regions around Seattle, Tacoma and Bremerton separating the small Cascade towns from larger states such as Victoria and the distance to the Pasco Free State, the state is largely independent and communes regularly with other small Cascade communities not yet officially a part of Victoria or the PFS. Despite this, Victoria does not recognize the independence of Issaquah-Snoqualmie, but does not officially enforce Victorian law in the isolated community.
