<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.
