Allied Nations

The Allied Nations, abbreviated A.N., is a multinational military force in the 1994 movie, Street Fighter, where it opposes an enemy known as Shadaloo, headed by a drug lord and military General named M. Bison. Bison's role in the movie is to demand the Allied Nations twenty billion of their currency within three days, or he will have his soldiers execute several Allied officials that they are holding hostage, which would leave Colonel William F. Guile feeling accountable in his mind. However, Guile manages to defeat Bison and have his friends rescue the hostages, and they escape before the hideout collapses.

During the movie, the Allied Nations are seen on the uniforms of some members (such as Guile and Cammy) when shown in a stealth boat that Bison later attacks.

Other appearances

The A.N. made an appearance in the Street Fighter cartoon episode, Keeping the Peace. It is revealed that Guile was court-martialed for going against orders and attacking Bison's stronghold. Sawada became Colonel and the leader of Guile's old team. In the episode, T. Hawk also appears as a member of the A.N. and still holds the rank of sergeant, as in the film, despite wearing traditional attire. He had previously appeared as an ally of the Street Fighters in a previous episode: "Desert Thunder".

Sawada and T. Hawk return in the episode "The Hammer Strikes", now collaborating with the Street Fighters. The episode continues the arc that began in "Desert Thunder".

In "Desert Thunder", T. Hawk had infiltrated the organization of mercenary Satin Hammer to recover a secret high-tech weapon. However, his mission is compromised by ghosts from the past and an unexpected attraction to Hammer. During the operation, his feelings put him in conflict, but when Hammer threatens the Pentagon, T. Hawk decides to side with the Street Fighters.

In the "The Hammer Strikes", despite their rivalry in the previous episode, Sawada is now considered an ally of the Street Fighters. During their journey to the Himalayas, Sawada works in sync with the group he once despised. The mission takes the Street Fighters to the temple of Dhalsim, where they discover a stolen nuclear warhead hidden away. Sawada claims that the warhead is the property of a A.N. signatory nation and was scheduled for testing that month. Guile realizes that he knew about the bomb's existence and that its deployment on the mission was no coincidence. Sawada, however, refuses to comment, claiming that the information is classified.

Dhalsim reveals that the test would take place on sacred ground near the temple, putting his people at risk, which prompts him to take action on his own.

T. Hawk volunteers for another mission against Hammer, although Guile shows hesitation, fearing that the sergeant's personal involvement could get in the way. Guile recalls that the last time T. Hawk was almost accused of treason. Even so, Hawk insists: he and Hammer have unfinished business.
