Fractured: A Shattered World (OOC | Modern | OPEN)

[Sudbrazil]

It's really quiet down here. Guess I'll have to craft a post to break the silence.

That'll do it.

[Arvenia]

Wow, this RP is effectively dead.

[Zjaum]

Wow, this RP is effectively dead.

Unless any of you would care to revive it? I can update/post, but I need more activity from others.

[Third ZSeparatists]

Yeah.

[Speyland]

Wow, this RP is effectively dead.

Indeed.

[Arvenia]

Wow, this RP is effectively dead.

Indeed.

Wow, that was unexpected.

[Northern Poland]

Indeed.

Wow, that was unexpected.

Speaking 3 months later, ya'll tryna revive this or something? We could always try it in a new thread, with OP's approval.

[Arvenia]

Wow, that was unexpected.

Speaking 3 months later, ya'll tryna revive this or something? We could always try it in a new thread, with OP's approval.

I thought about making a new RP, be it a PMT one similar to my old "Anno 2054", an AH one set between the 1800s and the 1900s, or one RP set in a fictional world similar to "Particracy", except players get to make their own nations. I'd be prefering the PMT one, especially with the COVID-19 terrorizing the world right now. I might even have interest in reviving this RP, albeit I don't know if I want to. It has been a long time since I hosted a RP. Possibly next month (May).

The PMT one sounds interesting, I think as long as you have a good time scale and make sure to specify which tech advancements have happened to stop godmodding, it should be strong.

I could guarantee that. Just have to wait until May due to my obviously long inactivity.

Why do you have to?

Why do you have to?

I haven't been RPing for a long time, WiFi at home is limited AH and COVID-19 has made everything boring IRL. I hope for more time and I will come up with a synopsis, as well as tech.

If you want help I can offer my assistance. To be honest I have a lot of free time, so I could help work on it a lot.

I think I like where this is going.

What kind of RP setting do you want me to feature in my RP? I got:

• PMT RP set in the 21st century following political, social and economic disaster, which is similar to "Anno 2054" and/or "Fractured: A Shattered World".
• AH RP either set in the late 19th century or the early 20th century where players get to create their own country with a choosen POD.
• PMT RP set in a fictionalized world similar to "Particracy" and/or any AU RP.

Unless I can review the answers anytime soon, I might check them out next month or maybe this month through my mobile phone.

Too bad this RP is already dead. Thought about doing Switzerland, but I guess I won't.

I would love to do a PMT RP, but it got to wait until May this year.

[Arvenia]

Below is the timeline for my PMT RP that will open up next Friday (May 1, 2020). I took it from a previous RP (Anno 2054) and will be editing it for a while before my new RP is born. See this as a work in progress.

2013: Protests erupts in Turkey and Ukraine. French military intervenes in Mali and North Korea conducts an underground nuclear test. Edward Snowden exposes US mass surveillance and Tokyo is made host of the 2020 Summer Olympics. The Syrian government attacks the rebel-controlled town of Ghouta with chemical weaponry.
2014: Pro-Russian uprising takes place in eastern Ukraine. Western sanctions against Russia.
2015: Debate regarding Article 9 occurs in Japan following the murder of two Japanese journalists by ISIS. Terrorist attacks occurs in Paris, France. Saudi-led military intervention occurs in Yemen.
2016: Donald Trump is elected President of the United States. The UK votes for seccession from the European Union. Failed military coup in Turkey.
2017: Trump is sworn in as the 45th President of the United States. ISIS is greatly weakened by opposing forces in Syria and Iraq, political divide between left and right strengthens across the US and Morocco rejoins the African Union. President Robert Mugabe is overthrown by the Zimbabwean military.
2018: Anti-government demonstrations occurs in Iran, USA wages trade war against China, USA puts further pressure on Iran regarding nuclear deal and the lira loses value in Turkey. The US controversially withdraws from the Syrian Civil War, although the US eventually regrets it.
2019: The EU Copyright Directive enters force, thus restricting internet freedom in both the EU and the EFTA. A series of terrorist bombings strikes Sri Lanka, Notre-Dam mysteriously catches fire and the Sudanese military overthrows President Omar al-Bashir. The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia changes it's name to "North Macedonia" in order to diplomatically restore Greek-Macedonian relations. Coronavirus breaks out in Wuhan, China. Boris Johnson becomes Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is killed following a raid by the US military.
2020: Coronavirus spreads across the world, causing lockdowns to be imposed in various countries and certain events, such as the 2020 Summer Olympics and the E3, to be cancelled. The UK officially leaves the EU, which causes a terrorist group called the "New Irish Republican Army" (NIRA) to start a militant campaign for Irish reunification. Trump is re-elected as President, despite both his handling of the Coronavirus pandemic and the recent impeachment trial against him.
2021: With a promise to not be re-elected as Federal Chancellor (Bundeskanzler), Angela Merkel resigns as head of the CDU, handing over the party leadership to Albert Krusch, one of her most fanatical supporters, who manages to gain success in preparation for the 2021 German Federal Election. Once it is held, he wins and becomes Bundeskanzler. He starts to advocate for European integration, as well as a merger of the CDU and other political parties, which eventually becomes known as the "Democratic Unification Party" (Demokratische Vereinigungspartei). Japan officially edits Article 9, turning the Japanese Self-Defence Forces into the Japanese Defence Forces (Bōeitai), thus remilitarizing the country. The JGSDF, the JMSDF and the JASDF are replaced by the Japanese Ground Defence Force (Rikujō Bōeitai), the Japanse Naval Defence Force (Kaijō Bōeitai) and the Japanese Air Defence Force (Hikō Bōeitai), while a new branch called the Japanese Cyber Defence Force (Saibā Bōeitai) is formed to deal with Japan's weak cyber defence. At the same time, with the recent deterioration in the Korean-Japanese relations amid the Coronavirus pandemic, the far-right radicalizes in South Korea with a number of ROK sympathizers increasing in Japan and taking an extremist stance regarding Korean-Japanese relations. Pro-DPRK sympathy decreases as a result. Among the ideologies of the Korean far-right is "Hyeongje" (형제), a right-wing nationalist movement which calls for Korea to cut ties with Japan and being more closer to the West (including the US), as well as cracking down on left-wing politics and reuniting the Korean Peninsula under Seoul. Bundeskanzler Krusch begins to openly support NIRA, seeing it as both pro-European and anti-British. British-German relations deteriorates greatly due to Krusch' hateful stance on the UK.
2022: Due to the popularity of the Hyeongje movement and it's triumph over Juche among Zainichi Koreans, the Japanese government cracks down on the movement, fearing it would encourage anti-Japanese sentiment. With further influence from Bundeskanzler Krusch and the recent election of a pro-European government in Ukraine (which later joins the EU that year), the EU radicalizes and starts to make membership withdrawal more difficult by threatening withdrawing member-states with sanctions and later military occupation. The EU openly supports the NIRA, the Scottish National Party and the Catalan independence movement. Spain gets fed up with the EU favouring Catalan nationalists. Meanwhile, the Hyeongje movement gains momentum in South Korea when a political party adhering to it, the National Liberty Party (국민자유당/Gugminjayudang), wins the 2022 South Korean Presidential Election and gains control over the country, thus propagating anti-Japanese sentiment by deporting any "Chinilpa" (Koreans who collaborated with Japan before and during WW2) from South Korea and banning Japanese culture (anime, manga, J-Pop, J-Drama, etc) on South Korean soil, which sparks outrage in Japan. At the same time, relations between North Korea and South Korea deteriorates due to the Hyeongje movement being in control of the latter.
2023: Saudi-Arabia officially withdraws from Yemen and anti-government protests in Iran intensifies. The BND allegedly assassinates Jarosław Kaczyński, the head of the PiS (Law and Justice), as a way to halt Eurosceptic nationalism within the EU. This prompts both anti-German riots in Poland and ensuing arrests of Germans by a newly-formed secret police called the National Security Service (Służba Bezpieczeństwa Narodowego). Poland officially withdraws from the EU, followed by Austria and Italy. As a result, all three countries are economically sanctioned by the EU. The US, in response, economically sanctions the EU and sends aid to Poland, Austria and Italy, as well as Spain, who is also thinking of leaving the EU. Russia, seeing the European crisis unfold, annexes eastern Ukraine (thus absorbing both the Donetsk People's Republic and the Lugansk People's Republic) and then invades Belarus. Meanwhile, NATO officially splits when the US. Meanwhile, the far-right MHP (Nationalist Movement Party) enters a coalition government with the ruling AKP (Justice and Development Party) in Turkey, making the country further oppressive and nationalistic while using the Grey Wolves (Bozkurtlar), the alleged terrorist wing of the MHP, as the country's own "Schutzstaffel" when persecuting ethnic minorities and political dissidents, as well as executing covert operations abroad. The EU also orders the US to remove it's European military presence as part of Kruschist-orchestrated crackdown on US interests in Europe.
2024: The 2024 US Presidential Election faces a twist when Chris Shannon, an independent Congressman from New York, runs for President as a non-partisan candidate. Meanwhile, following rumors that Poland, Austria and Italy have allegedly planned to eradicate the EU by covertly encouraging withdrawal among member-states, the EU officially declares war on the three countires by sending military forces to invade them, starting the Central European War. Austria, Poland and Italy forms a military alliance known as the "Freedom Alliance" (Freiheitsbündnis/Sojusz Wolności/Alleanza Libertà/Szabadság Szövetség), which is soon joined by Spain and Hungary, prompting the EU to also invade the two countries. North Macedonia and Norway joins the EU and sends their armed forces to participate in the Central European War as well. Turkey also supports the EU, both financially and militarily, in the conflict.
2025: The British-American military forces carries out a joint offensive against the NIRA forces in Northern Ireland, prompting Irish military aid to both the NIRA and other Irish nationalist groups in the region. With Russia having annexed Belarus (as well as replacing Alexander Lukashenko wth a pro-Russian puppet leader) and set it's eyes on the Baltic countries, the EU intervenes. Meanwhile, the relations between North Korea and South Korea sours as internal conflict rises within the North Korean government. The EU, meanwhile, carries out airstrikes against northern Italy and western Austria for two months as part of "Operation Skyfall", which is carried out by the German Air Force, the French Air Force, the Croatian Air Force and the Slovenian Air Force. The French Army annexes Andorra and invades northern Spain while receiving aid from Catalan rebels. A BND-orchestrated coup d'etat in Prague puts the Czech Republic under a pro-European government who promptly suppresses Czech nationalism and imposes gun control, as well as sending armed forces to the Central European War.
2026: The EU occupies both Austria and Hungary, setting up re-education camps for citizens of both countries to be humiliated and later submit to EU ideology. Meanwhile, conflict between Iran and Saudi-Arabia arises over Iraq, prompting the EU to side with Iran (due to the nuclear deal) and the US to side with Saudi-Arabia. As the result of Kurds siding with the US and Saudi-Arabia, Turkey sides with the EU and Iran, while the Iraqi government remains forcefully neutral despite the risk of war breaking out. Meanwhile, President Bashar al-Assad is shockingly assassinated alongside his family by an airstrike against the Presidential Palace in Damascus. The assassination was blamed on various entities, mainly the US, ISIS and Kurds. Anyway, Syria falls into total anarchy as crisis emerges within the ruling party following the assassination, which prompts both Russia and Iran to jointly send in peacekeeping forces. South America descends into chaos as the Venezuelan Civil War breaks out and people starts fleeing to neighbouring countries. Meanwhile, the South Korean military occupies the Liancourt Rocks (also known as Dokdo and Takeshima), prompting brief retaliation by the JDF that lasts for two weeks.
2027: As the result of the Central European War, economic crisis surfaces among various EU member-states, mainly Greece, Sweden, France and Ireland. Germany and Belgium, the only countries to not suffer from economic crisis within the EU, intimidates other member-states in order to keep the EU alive. Meanwhile, China faces economic debt and South Africa descends into chaos as anti-government sentiment turns further militant. On the other hand, the US is facing further internal chaos as civil war brews. Poland gets eventually occupied by the Bundeswehr with the PiS leadership executed and Polish people sent to re-education camps to both abandon Polish nationalism and pledge allegiance to the EU. Remaining in the Freedom Alliance are Italy and Spain alongside support from the US military.
2028: As a last resort against Taiwanese independence, the PLA invades Taiwan, prompting military intervention by the US and Japan, despite the South Korean government protesting against Japanese military intervention. Some EU member-states, most notably Portugal and the Netherlands, collapses due to economic debt, thus resulting in them being temporarily occupied by EU military forces in order to preserve the EU and keep ensuing chaos at bay while the EU also punishes both governments for economic failure. The NIRA commits a terrorist attack against the UK Parliament, killing 75 people, including the Prime Minister, prompting both martial law in the UK by the British military and further action against Irish nationalists by Ulster loyalists. The Iraqi dispute goes further critical, resulting in Iran officially overthrowing the Iraqi government and replacing it with a pro-Iranian one under Muqtada al-Sadr, which further militarizes the crisis. Kurdish independence prevails as Syrian Kurdistan and Iraqi Kurdistan secedes to form the Democratic Confederation of Kurdistan (Konfederasyona Demokratîk ya Kurdistanê). In response to this, Turkey and Iran imposes martial law in Turkish Kurdistan and Iranian Kurdistan while the KDK faces a joint invasion by Turkey, Iran, Russia and Iraq. Allegedly, genocide is carried out against the Kurds by the AKP-MHP government, which the EU turns an blind eye on. Controversially, the US elects Chris Shannon, the new leader of the US Constitution Party, as it's President, angering both Democrats and Republicans, who all view it as a violation of the country's traditional two-party system.
2029: Chris Shannon inaugurates as the first Constitutionist President of the US, prompting both Republicans and Democrats to openly defy the new government. Ultimately, armed conflict breaks out between Saudi-Arabia and Iran. It becomes known as the "Second Gulf War". Both Iran and Saudi-Arabia indiscriminately bomb each other, while the RSSMF fires a missile at Istanbul, cutting off the bridge that keeps Turkey and Europe connected. In response, Turkey helps Iran with military action against Saudi-Arabia, just as Saudi-Arabia gets backup from the US. Russia and Iraq also supports Iran in the Second Gulf War. Meanwhile, France declares bankruptcy and withdraws from the Central European War, prompting Germany and other fanatical EU member-states to both bomb French cities and invade northern France as punishment for the military withdrawal, which they consider to be disrespectful towards the EU and Albert Krusch himself. In response to the European backlash against France, the USAF bombs the German cities of Munich, Dresden and Frankfurt, which causes further uproar within the US, as some states and organizations found these bombings to be unpopular and anti-humanitarian. The DV government and it's EU allies uses this as an opportunity to create anti-American propaganda and accuse the US of betraying liberalism while encouraging rebellion in the US among left-wing extremists and minority communities. As proven, the EU effectively orchestrates civil disobedience in the US among leftist groups and minority communities, prompting martial law by the US National Guard, the FBI, the DHS and various right-wing militias.
2030: Mexico descends into chaos as the War on Drugs intensifies and the drug cartels gaining further power within the country, just as the Mexican town of Chéran, due to it's anti-government stance, gets invaded by the Mexican military on behalf of the country's new government whose leader seeks to centralize (de-federalize) the country. Meanwhile, Africa descends into total chaos with governments collapsing and armed groups emerging. Political opposition towards the Krusch government grows more stronger within Germany, resulting in further crackdown on civil liberties by both the DV government and various pro-government groups. North Korea descends into chaos as Unit 684 overthrows the Kim dynasty and declares martial law. The US eventually makes Ontonagon (formerly the "Upper Peninsula of Michigan") and Puerto Rico the newest states in the US, adding the number of US states to 52. This only causes further confusion and anger among US citizens.
2031: For the first time in Japanese history, China officially drops a nuclear bomb on Okinawa, decimating the island and taking many lives, prompting the US to launch cruise missiles at the Chinese island of Hainan, as well as prompting the Japanese government to attack and deport Japan's Chinese community. Meanwhile, the internal conflict in Burma worsens as the Buddhist community radicalizes under the 969 Movement and the Burmese military invades Bangladesh, accusing it of supporting ethnic rebels. India and Thailand intervenes while ASEAN is facing imminent doom and the Indo-Pakistani relations worsening. The EU is facing further pressure from Russia, the US and the UK, prompting Germany to invade the Kaliningrad Oblast, which causes Russia to invade Ukraine, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria and Slovakia.
2032: Dissolution is nearing in both China and USA while the Korean Peninsula descends into chaos with the KPA invading South Korea, thus starting the Second Korean War. Despite the conflict having started, the US was busy due to internal crisis and Japan refuses to aid South Korea due to the Liancourt Crisis of 2026. Famine and plague goes rampant in Africa amid armed conflicts. Chéran is razed to the ground by the Mexican military, prompting vigilante action against the Mexican government by both the town's surviving residents and various Mexican self-defence groups. Meanwhile, Canada is facing a similar critical uproar as people turn against each other. Japan is facing imminent economic debt. Germany officially suppresses Christianity, claiming it to be a threat to both the EU and multiculturalism, which causes concern among EU member-states.
2033: Internal crisis strikes the Communist Party of China (CPC) while the conflict between Democrats, Republicans, Constitutionists and other US political parties intensifies. Eventually, both blue states (Democratic states) and red states (Republican states) starts to further defy the Constitutionist government by operating autonomous from it and heavily relying on their respective "state defence forces" (SDFs) for military protection from both each other and the Constitutionist government. The Russian government faces further anti-government opposition and the Iraqi people revolts against the Sadrist government, prompting crackdown by both the Sadrist authorities and the Iranian military. Meanwhile, Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Greece officially declares bankruptcy, causing further anger within Germany and other fanatical EU states, who quickly condemned all these countries through diplomatic sanctions. With Germany and Russia constantly fighting over Poland, nationalist opposition to both of them rises up among Polish citizens, who quickly form resistance groups such as the "Home Guard" (Gwardia Krajowa), the "National Liberation Movement" (Ruch Wyzwolenia Narodowego), the "White Fist" (Biały Pięść) and the CIA-sponsored "Polish Liberation Army" (Polska Armia Wyzwolenia). These groups terrorizes both the German authorities and the Russian authorities in occupied Poland for five years.
2034: California and Texas, albeit being respectively Democratic and Republican, campaigns for independence, prompting crackdown by the federal authorities, which helps fueling the internal strife that the US is about to face. Meanwhile, Uyghurs and Tibetans starts insurrecting against the Chinese government while Taiwan regains it's independence. The KPA is pushed out of South Korea while North Korea further descends into economic crisis and political uproar.
2035: Civil war breaks out in Germany between the left-wing government and the right-wing opposition. The German Air Force bombs Chemnitz, which had been turned into an opposition stronghold filled with right-wing nationalists, killing 75% of the city population. More EU states withdraws from the Central European War and military occupations ceases (except Germany and Russia still occupies Poland), but the invaded countries are badly damaged beyond recognition (especially Italy, whose northern part has been so devastated by the Central European War that balkanization could prevent nationwide recovery, and France, where the Fifth Republic had eventually collapsed as the French military formed a provisional government). Meanwhile, India is facing crisis as overpopulation worsens and separatism becoming more prevalent. As a result, the Indian government seeks to solve the two issues by ordering genocide against ethnic minorities, prompting further violence among Indian communities. Burmese military withdraws from Bangladesh, but radicalization by Buddhist nationalists continues as the country further descends into ethnic chaos with all ethnic groups, especially the ones who had made peace with the Burmese government, starting to violently rebel for freedom. Iran and Saudi-Arabia causes their war to negatively affect the oil market as many oil installations were badly damaged by airstrikes. Meanwhile, the AKP-MHP government faces opposition from both Kurds and other parts of Turkish society, prompting civil war to break out.
2036: The US officially withdraws troops from the whole world as a result of increasing problem within the country, as well as a controversial executive order by the Constitutionist government. China is further collapsing as a result of ethnic separatism, political strife and economic debt. In response, the Chinese government orders militant purge of ethnic minorities and opposition parties in the country. Martial law is declared by the JDF in Japan as political violence resurfaces. ISIS finally collapses. UN, AU, ASEAN, GCC, CIS, ECOWAS, SCO, SAARC, WTO, Mercosur, the Commonwealth of Nations, the Eurasian Economic Union and other intergovernmental organizations (except the EU) dissolves. Many countries (India, Pakistan, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Indonesia, Canada, etc) continuously collapses while armed conflict breaks out in the process.
2037: California secedes from the US, prompting the federal government to considering invasion, but is distracted by the internal strife that is arriving much faster to the country, as well as the frequent conflict between blue states and red states. Texas and Puerto Rico also secedes from the US without facing federal invasion. Meanwhile, Mexico collapses, prompting a US migrant crisis that alerts the most xenophobic militias that ever existed on US soil. In Texas, immigrants crossing through the Mexican-Texan border are gunned down by border guards serving the Texan government. Meanwhile, North Korea ultimately collapses with South Korea, still under Hyeongje influence, ensuingly occupying the country. During this occupation, the South Korean government dismantles WMDs and concentration camps, as well as modernizing the country, punishing North Korean government officials, shutting down North Korean propaganda, absorbing the KPA into the South Korean military, setting up a provisional military government to oversee the occupation and sending humanitarian aid to the starving North Korean population.
2038: Russia takes advantage of the US internal crisis by adding the secessionistic Alaska to it's sphere of influence. Meanwhile, the US breaks further down as both blue states and red states are arming up their state defence forces and USNG personnel for an incoming civil war, just as the federal government is considering to gain back control over these states through military action. Israel and Lebanon both descends into chaos due to ideological terrorism and economic debt. Catalonia declares independence at last, but has to avoid joining the EU due to the current situation within the organization. After a year of occupation, North Korea officially reunifies with South Korea. Poland is able to free itself from both Germany and Russia, but is equally damaged beyond recognition and would take years to rebuild itself from scrap.
2039: As Iran falls further into chaos due to anti-government protests, Saudi-Arabia ultimately faces the same problem as a seemingly democratic revolution erupts against the royal family. Meanwhile, Belgium descends into chaos due to emerging conflict between pro-European Walloons and Flemish nationalists while the German Civil War further intensifies. The US government is further weakened by territorial loss and armed conflict while Japan greatly weakens through both economic debt and political violence. Due to these situations plaguing the world, Korea becomes economically protectionist and militarily stands vigilant against both mass immigration and foreign aggression.
2040: Mormon fundamentalists successfully takes control over Utah and Arizona, thus re-establishing Deseret, while the US government loses further control over both blue states and red states, whose respective state defence forces are fighting each others, the US military, California, Texas, Deseret and smaller armed groups. Ultimately, the German government gets overthrown by right-wing militants who promptly captures Albert Krusch and his inner circle. Four months later amid trial against the former government, Krusch and his comrades are executed by hanging in the town square of Berlin. The EU officially collapses and many European countries have descended into chaos while Germany, now under a provisional right-wing government and with financial support from Switzerland, struggles to regain stability while purging itself of left-wing politics and hunting down other members of the old Kruschist government. Meanwhile, pro-Kruschist groups seeks to thwart the new government and restore Kruschism as the dominant state ideology. The UK descends into chaos due to economic debt and political conflict while Ireland collapses as the NIRA and remnants of the Irish government now focuses on restoring stability in both Ireland and Northern Ireland. The royal family of Saudi-Arabia have eventually been overthrown by pro-democratic revolutionaries, who are then fighting Sunni Islamic fundamentalists for control over the country.
2041: The US government officially collapses following a series of drone strikes against the White House and other key federal locations, sparking absolute dissolution of the country with the Republicans and the Democrats seeking to restore the country while still hating each other and controlling their respective states. China officially collapses after the CPC headquarters gets bombed by an airstrike while Russia is itself crumbling under economic crisis and armed conflict between the government and various armed groups. The Middle East totally descends into chaos as the Kurds struggles to maintain their independence. The Iranian government eventually collapses as a result of popular uprising and economic crisis.
2042: Australia descends into chaos and Latin American countries eventually collapses. India, currently balkanized, is seeing a chance in regaining stability (but not able to achieve unification) while Pakistan isn't doing it well. Some other parts of the world goes chaotic. Republicans and Democrats struggle to succeed the US as various secessionist countries and armed groups attack their respective states.
2043: The US is officially gone as it is now controlled by various countries that were born out of it. Armed conflict still prevail in the US as Republicans, Democrats and other US factions antagonizes each others, both diplomatically and militarily. European countries, especially Germany, starts to slowly recover and China is officially split up, but with a possible chance at stability among it's successor states.
2044: Chaos strikes New Zealand, New Guinea and the rest of Oceania. Russia officially splits up as a result of political uproar and economic crisis, although only it's European half is doing fine while armed conflict, prejudice and famine plagues the Asian half. Some African countries recover while the Middle Eastern chaos starts to die down. Japan attempts to invade Korea, but to no avail due to Korean military strength. In a very sudden move, many states in the East Coast, as well as the Bahamas and the Canadian Maritimes, began negotiating for the formation of a new country that would help solve their issues and promote their interests. The negotiations succeeds and therefore helps forming the "Atlantic Federation" (Atlantica), an efficient state built on values the US had long forgotten throughout the early 21st century.
2045: The post-US situation still remains critical while Latin America slowly recovers, although the situation also looks dire. Armed border conflicts breaks out in Eastern Europe, East Asia, South Asia and the Middle East. The Atlantic Federation get it's first permanent government inaugurated under a 65 years old Chris Shannon, who had merged both the Constitution Party and the Republican Party into the "Republican Constitution Party" (RCP).
2046: Armed conflict breaks out between Korea and the Manchu population. Australia and the Caribbean slowly recovers as most European countries regain stability, although hostility between them still remains.

2048: Ethnic violence breaks out in Central America and Southeast Asia while Japan recovers from economic debt and political violence.
2049: Korea invades Manchruia while armed conflict persists in the Asian half of Russia between various factions. A series of border clashes breaks out across the former US, forcing the Atlantic Federation to close it's western borders and also send in humanitarian aid to targeted border towns, which helps giving it a good reputation.
2050: South Africa, Central America, India and Southeast Asia regains stability, but ethnic tensions still prevail in South Africa.
2051: The situation in the US calms down, but remains uncertain. While armed conflict has died down, the situation in China still looks dire as successor countries antagonizes each others.
2052: The economic situation fully stabilizes, diplomatic relations are restored and newer countries are born. Chris Shannon dies at the age of 72, giving himself a respectful funeral by the people of the Atlantic Federation.
2053: The European part of Russia greatly recovers and a few more African countries regain stability.

I'd be interested in doing my usual cyberpunk Scandinavia thing.

I would prefer it if you re-wrote large sections of the existing history, though. It's probably more fun to play around with a slightly different early history than to set up another RP with the exact same premise. I would also recommend not having so much detail in the world history backstory.

Well, I plan on setting the RP in 2056, as well as editing large sections of the timeline. Are there any sections I should change? How different should early history be like?

i don't think including 2016-2019 is a good idea since, most of (if not all of it) happened irl
