The program was a TV miniseries called
Amerika. It was set in the year 1996 after America had lost the Cold War to the USSR and was occupied by UN Peacekeepers after being disarmed (The Peacekeeping Force was called the UNSS or United Nations Security Service). The Russians divided the USA into Administrative Regions (For example the states of Illinois, Iowa, Missour, Nebraska, Kansas, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Dakotas was the Heartland Administrative Region).
