Isaiah 2:2-6 - In the last days the mountain of the LORD's temple will be established as the highest of the mountains; it will be exalted above the hills, and all nations will stream to it. Many peoples will come and say, "Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the temple of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths." The law will go out from Zion, the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. He will judge between the nations and will settle disputes for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore. And He will judge between the nations, And will render decisions for many peoples; And they will hammer their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, And never again will they learn war.
The nation of Gilneas, what was left of it after decades of war, had been annihilated by the ravaging zombie hordes. The famed Greymane Wall stood little chance against millions of the beasts. The Kaiser, government, and few nobles managed to escape.
Beautiful Archeuland, rich in 'honor and victory, was a burning plain. The shining capital of Massouba was destroyed. Thousands were dead and dying.
The once great empire of Prussia, which had spanned from the Lithuanian foothills to the shimmering lake Erwin, was fragmented, war torn, and destroyed even further by the zombie apocalypse.
Is it Ethelgrad? Is it Acharastan? Both were brought to their knees by the mindless hordes, and the scourge of war and nuclear winter.
Deian-Salazar was overtaken.
The great Commonwealth was destroyed, and its President believed dead.
Usea was united but had lost millions.
The plague had continued into the new world Deuneusia. The colonies were all but ended.
Fort Genevievia, meant to be the crowning achievement of security, was overrun; without survivors.
Emperor Markus III of Archeuland is suffering great injury, and rumor has it that he has abdicated.
The islands of the sea held out as long as they could, but even they felt the scourge of war.
The Baughistani islands were fragmented and seething with the heat of a multitude of detonated nuclear weapons.
But mankind held out against the foe, driving them back at immense cost. Millions died on both sides. Inevitably, the undead hordes across the world will slaughtered and defeated, and men once again reclaimed their homes and countries. By then, many things had changed. There were new nations vying for supremacy in a virgin land.
For the Genevievian nations to be triumphant and prosperous again, they would have to band together to rebuild and improve their world. Whether or not they did was a decision that stood the test of time.
This is your new world.
OOC: Welcome to the new Genevievian roleplay! In the aftermath of this zombie apocalypse, with countless millions believed dead, we stand at a crossroads in history of our world. We must now band together to survive in this new land. If we wage war on one another, none of us will survive. We must now work together to rebuild our world, and this time, make it better.
Ideas:
1. Adding probably a hundred new NPC countries to the world map. All of these, except for two or three empires, will be small city-states and plots of land feudalistic in size.
2. Working on the Papal States, the only nation whose capital evaded the zombie attack
3. Working on the history of Genevievia, backstories, etc
