- <h4>Introduction</h4>
- <p>
- The year is 2140. After numerous wars and several environmental
- disasters, only two world powers remain; the United Civilized States
- (UCS) covering the American continent, Western Europe and North
- Africa, and the Eurasian Dynasty (ED)covering the coherent landmasses
- of Eastern Europe and Asia. The damage caused by the long wars led
- both world powers to evacuate the population to recently built
- underground cities. Australia and most parts of Africa were
- sacrificed during the long wars, which lasted several decades. Highly
- toxic biological and chemical weapons were developed on these
- continents, leaving them so badly contaminated, that no human life
- can survive there. Not even the use of robots and machines is
- possible. The general opinion was that these continents would forever
- remain uninhabitable, and they were wiped from every map. Most of the
- world's population forgot that this land ever existed.
- <p>
- The UCS system is one of stochastocracy (coincidental rule). The
- population enjoys a lazy and decadent life. They live for their own
- enjoyment and let machines (so-called "Black-Tech"-robots) do all the
- necessary work. The population has no interest in politics, leaving
- the rulers to be chosen randomly using computers. The Eurasians are
- governed by the dictatorial Khan Dynasty. These days Tiao Zhan Zhe
- Khan (his name means Provocator of War) rules the ED.
- <p>
- Due to the environmental problems caused by the wars and the
- contamination of most parts of his country, the 34th Khan Yong Shi
- Khan (Brave Warrior) ordered the development of a technology to
- replace parts of the human body with mechanical parts, a way of
- reducing the population. Now, in the reign of the 37th Khan, these
- goals have been achieved. The population has been transformed into
- ascetic and extremely powerful androids. The "human" body now
- consists of rudimental organisms which support the brain and
- numerous mechanical components, which have been developed for
- specific android tasks. Population growth is controlled by using
- cerebral transfer to create new androids. An android's brain cells
- are used to clone a new body and the mechanical parts are built
- around it.
- <p>
- Natural resources are becoming scarce and have to be extracted above
- ground. There have been a number of small conflicts between the UCS
- and the ED, the last of which escalated and became a fierce and
- bitter war - the final world war. Only one side can win. This final
- war will decide who will get the last of the available natural
- resources and ultimately rule the world.
