The African Confederation was an independent supranational organization and key geopolitical power in the 21st Century, having reached its greatest geographic extent with the accession of South Africa into the union in 1991. Though originally created as a standards organization and a form of unified front against foreign interventionism in the African continent, by 2015 the African Confederation had effectively became the first of the Supranational blocks to become a nationstate in its own right, having established the African Confederate Armed Forces, Aerospace Foundation of Africa, and a variety of intelligence agencies, along with central structures of legislative government and a central bank with its own currency, the African Dollar.

Because of Africa's wealth and influence in the lead up to the Third World War, the African Confederation had enormous impact on the shape of the war through the Adis Ababa Declaration and the Treaty of Cairo, which largely limited the extent to which nuclear weapons were in use during the war. Post-war, the African Confederation was a founding member of the Western Sphere Hegemony; cooperation between the AC and the Oceanic Econo-Political Union in the lead up and earliest periods of the Third World War are largely credited with the defeat of the Eurasian Soviet during the war, and African Confederation manufacturing and logistics are largely credited with the overall allied victory.
