The World of Electric Dreams

THE YEAR OF 2081


 * The geopolitical situation of 2081 would remind many of those old enough of the cold war of the 20th century. Great world powers stand in great contrast to eachother, yet none of them eager to go for eachothers throats. While the world situation may appear dire to the average person of Acropolis, the truth is far more complicated.
 * While rivals, the great world powers still do rely heavily on eachothers imports. After the global oil shortage of the 2040's, the Federated States of America's primary import of oil comes from their arch-nemesis of the Union of Sovereign Soviet Nations. And just as so, the Union of Sovereign Soviet Nations also import many goods such as synthetic plants or meat from the FSA.
 * Internally, the Federated States of America are currently ongoing a great economic depression after the boom of the 2070's. This economic depression came to be after a great plague of decease hit the American synthetic food production, causing food prices to sky-rocket as more and more food turned useless. Many peoples of the workforce who could not afford such necessities turned to the deceased meats of the market, which killed thousands as a result. However, there does appear to be brighter days ahead, as the food production has begun to stabilize itself.

GEOPOLITICAL ALLIANCES


 * Four major blocs stand as the current hegemons of the world as of 2081. Each of these are loosely bound by either ideological means, or common geological interest.

OFN


 * OFN or Organization of Free Nations is an intergovernmental military alliance between various European and North American countries. The organization implements the Freedom Alliance Treaty that was signed on 7th March 2049. OFN constitutes a system of collective defense whereby its independent member states agree to mutual defense in response to an attack by any external party.


 * These nations include: the Federated States of America, the European Democratic Union, the Republic of Visegrad, the Canadian Republic, Republic of Scotland, the English Union and the Irish Republic

5th International




 * The 5th International is the reorganized remains of the Warsaw Pact. Following Gorbachev's reforms of the 1990's, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was reorganized into the Union of Sovereign Soviet Nations. As a result, a new geopolitical force followed: The 5th International.

 * It's comprised of the nation states of: the Union of Sovereign Soviet Nations, the Asian Workers and Farmers Republic, the Indochinese Peoples Union, the Workers Republic of Romania and the Yugoslav Workers Federation.

Pacific Union of Prosperity


 * The Pacific Union of Prosperity or PUP was formed as a response to the increasingly growing threat of the 5th International towards Japan. Having felt economically isolated from the OFN and America, Japan opted to rather create their own military bloc of their own. The Pacific Union of Prosperity stands as an intergovernmental military alliance.Gamer.png

League of Mosul


 * the League of Mosul or LM was formed during the 2040's global oil shortage as an economic intergovernmental alliance of various oil-rich Arab nations. Through the development of time, the League of Mosul evolved into not only an economical alliance between the nations of the middle east, but also one of considerable military might.
