Three Vaults

The Three Vaults was an unique network of Vaults 31, 32, and 33 in Los Angeles, California. Where most Vaults were designed to function independently, the Three Vaults were interconnected by passageways that separated them to contain threats, but allowed them to come to each other's aid in times of need. Three democracies in three Vaults, the light burning in the darkness, was the official line.Betty Pearson: "We must remember how good we have it here in Vaults 31, 32 and 33. Three democracies in three vaults. Separated to prevent the spread of threats, but connected to aid one another in times of need. We are the lucky ones. We are the light burning in the darkness. And we will carry on until the day we bring that light to the surface. "("The Past")
In reality, the network was a social experiment continuing Bud Askins' pre-War HR research program, an evolution of Bud's Buds.Norm MacLean: "Is this where my dad's from?"Bud Askins: "You'll never find out. Oh. He's gonna find out. These are Bud's Buds. My Buds. America outsourced the survival of this country to the private sector. But it would have been insane to keep a failed nation alive. So, we kept Vault-Tec alive instead. A well-trained staff of highly supervised junior executives from my own assistant training program. Because the future of humanity comes down to one word: Management."(The Beginning) Vault 31 contained dozens of graduates of the program in cryo suspension, overseen by Askins transplanted to a small robobrain chassis. This would allow Vault-Tec to survive as the United States collapsed, while Askins used the other two Vaults as breeding farms for his eugenics program, to create a class of super managers to "inherit the earth".Norm MacLean: "So what's Vault 32 and 33? Just people to be controlled?"Bud Askins: "What? No! When you put it like that, it sounds downright morally questionable. They're our breeding pool, the ultimate expression of HR R&D. Genetically selected to breed with my Buds to create a class of super managers. People with positivity, people who make lemonade. People who will inherit the Earth after we've wiped the surface clean."Norm MacLean: "We wiped the surface clean?"(The Beginning)
