I'm pretty far into Shadowrun Returns and it isn't even mentioned once.

    OK thank you for the nuance. It wasn't the yes/no answer I was hoping for, but it does give me some background. What powers do nation-states have in this universe then ? Link me the rules if it's easier.

      Some more than others and usually the ones that have a dragon backed corp or syndicate tend to have more influence but usually in their region. Like Lofwyr & Saedur-Krupp pretty much run the United German States, Lung & Triads in China.

      But honestly the governments of nation-states are essentially puppets for the megacorps or syndicates.

      Like the Great Ghost Dance is an example of how the UCAS wasn't really able to do much to stop the creation of the Salish-Shidhe and elves + a dragon were able to carve out the Tir Tairngire
