The Void

== About ==
The Void, (aka. Tuštybė, Пустотата, الفراغ, Widmo) was a Bistonian organization and movement. It was founded by a former professor named Matis Dominykas in the year of 1960. Initially a movement dedicated to stopping all sorts of nuclear confrontations and the research on deadly biological weapons in Bistonia, the Void eventually grew to become a doomsday cult, leading to its infamous reputation as one of the worlds most dangerous organizations, having been banned across several countries such as Sidan and Crimsonia and having even been designated as a terrorist group. A majority of the organization's leaders were sanctioned and put on blacklists by numerous countries. The organization was notorious for illegal possession of firearms, which were owned by the organization's paramilitary wing. During its peak in the 1980s, the organization had several branches operating in numerous countries.
The organization grew with new members annually within the 1960s and 70s after the death of its leader, Matis. During its initial years the movement would have a difficult time due to the nature of the organization's intentions, which were often deemed as radical during the 70s. The group was split into two separate organizations in 1972, which soon brought a conflict on the streets of Bistonia's capital as the two organizations fought together with their paramilitary wings through the use of mass shootings. The mass shootings which were orchestrated by members of the two organizations soon gave the Void a terrible reputation within the Bistonian public opinion and the Bistonian government declared a state of emergency, soon arresting most of its leadership. The organization remained in obscurity following the aftermath but soon had created a new leadership and expanded new branches overseas, attempting to spread the awareness of the devastating effects of nuclear warfare. It was also around this time that the organization had begun to purchase military-grade equipment illegally. The organization made a comeback in 1986, when they stormed Bistonia's parliament, prompting the Bistonian government to execute one of the group's leaders.
In the modern period, the Void organization has vastly transformed from what it was in the 1980s. Following the end of the Cold War and the possible threat of a nuclear war declining, the organization had gradually fallen out in the 1990s. It disbanded its paramilitary wing in 2001, believing that the organization had strayed further from its original purposes. Many of its members have left the organization, and the organization was downsized following the moving of its headquarters from New Vilnius to a much more isolated location in Central Bistonia, and soon their branches had either split from the main organization or have disbanded. The organization had now largely shifted completely from what it had used to be decades ago and had participated in charity and humanitarian organizations, and have even raised funds to improve infrastructure in Central Bistonia. Their attempts to restore their reputation to others gained traction in 2012, when the organization announced the completion of a bridge connecting a town that was destroyed in 1988, and have set up programs which advocated for green energy.
== Prelude ==
Matis Dominykas Jr. was born in 1925 during the Crimmitonian rule in Bistonia to a wealthy family. Because of this he was provided higher education outside of Bistonia in the Crimmitonian capital city in Kradovo, eventually enrolling into Kradovo University and graduating from there by 1943. By the time he had graduated from there the Second Great War had already taken a toll on daily life in Crimmitonia and soon he had to move to New Vilnius. In the post-war period, Matis had saw the chaos unfold during the events of the Crimsonian Civil War, and witnessed the execution of his father at the hands of Crimsonian rebels in 1950. In exchange for not meeting the same fate as his father, Matis was soon forced to become a brigade leader at a collective farm which had been established in Northern Bistonia. During his time there, he had witnessed the terrible conditions of the farmers by the central government. He attempted to improve the working conditions of the collective farms, only to be given a warning by the local authorities that if he did not stop he would soon meet the same tragic fate as his father. In his manifesto written in 1961 which formed the backbone of many of the Void's 
== Founding ==
I used to research biological weapons in favour for the Crimsonian government, until the famine in 1956 caught my attention. I saw the photos of them starving to death, on the streets.. people eating eachother. I wanted to work on modifying fertilizers and crops in order to stop the suffering, but they said it wasn't concerning, and discredited me for my attempted work. I knew I couldn't trust them, because my father died in the hands of those people. So I made a decision, which ultimately saved me, and this is where I began repenting for my sins. I began working once again as I was recruited in exchange for citizenship in my own homeland, Bistonia. And once again they recruited me to experiment, research and test deadly chemicals in war. All of them were the same. I couldn't stop them, and I was sacked, but my citizenship was there. So, I chose my own path, I chose to create a movement where the world will unite to begin the purification and the elimination of those who can think they exceed the paths of humanity, by making it know that it can destroy itself.
- Matis Dominykas Jr.Matis Dominykas Jr. founded and created the movement called "The Void" 5 days after he was fired from the New Vilnius Research Facility for misconduct, during his early days of creating the movement, he founded a book allegedly with his experience within the New Vilnius Research Facility, and describing about the project, including his personal opinions on the matter, and how he wanted to stop world governments from using the deadly weapon and how it should've been destroyed, including why it was necessary to join his movement and believe in his theories.
Several other researchers who were fired by the chairman of the facility also joined and contributed to the creation of the movement, however they wanted to create a different view and ideology of the movement, modelling the movement into a sort of doomsday cult, with its own ideology, religion and ideals, the reason to why several researchers turned it into a cult was unknown, however a rumor was circulating that these researchers had lost their mind after realizing the catastrophe about the incident. This contributed to The Void movement having a reputation of being a cult instead of a movement to stop world governments.
However the Bistonian government and the New Vilnius Research Facility condemned the actions made by Matis Dominykas Jr. claiming that there is no such existence of "The Void" and that stopping world governments from using such nuclear weapons and the destruction of humanity as another attempt to boost members, morale and popularity for the movement, they also tried major attempts to capture and interrogate him.
However, Matis Dominykas Jr. life was shortlived as in late 1960, after the creation of his movement and cult, he was eventually found by a mercenary force allegedly funded by the St. Ark Federation, and shot in the streets of New Vilnius, after his death, the legacy he brought onto founding the movement was admired by many several members from the former research facility, and inspired many others to rise up against world governments for truth and eliminating the so called "Void Project"
== Beliefs ==
In the movement of The Void, there were many several beliefs for the movement, however, the main belief of the movement officially known and written by Matis Dominykas Jr. in his book about the concepts and his personal opinions on The Void, his beliefs were to give humanity the right to freedom of speech, have the freedom to think and have equality within the human mind, although the movement's main objective was to halt the research of the Void Project, the main beliefs are written within his book and he demanded that many people should follow these beliefs.
However, throughout the years, the movement and so called cult and their beliefs have changed drastically compared to what Matis Dominykas Jr. had expected, most of these beliefs include the destruction of authoritarian governments and a united world government with free human rights and equality, and the elimination of currency and economic systems including the dissolution of the class divide and the elimination of conflict and total destruction of war.
Most of these beliefs created by The Void have also drastically changed after nuclear war broke out and destroyed humanity within an hour, in post-war Zedrutian, the last organized and largest division of the movement had completely different beliefs instead of freedom of speech, and human rights, in this wasteland version, the movement aims to eradicate humanity and replace them with the creation of mutants, however after their destruction this was never met.
== Rise ==
After his death, Matis Dominykas Jr. and his book convinced and influenced many conspiracy theorists throughout Bistonia to rise up against the authoritarian rules of society and world governments to stop the project, and influenced many of the youth culture to join the movement and the so called cult, most of these conspiracy theorists had spread the word of the so called concept of "The Void" throughout many of the population and this began the rise of the movement after his death.
In 1961, the movement began to soar as a massive movement aimed to stop world governments and facilities from creating such deadly weapons, during this year, the New Vilnius Research Facility had realized the rise of the so called movement, and made many attempts to counter the rise of violent attacks and raids throughout the facility, in the end they reinforced many of its sectors and entrances, making the facility the most secure in the world.
During late 1961, conspiracy theorists and members of the movement began to worship Matis Dominykas Jr, claiming that he was about to bring the truth and that the Bistonian government aimed to silence the population about the truth of the deadly weapon, despite the fact that it was by the St. Ark Federation down south.
Youth culture groups also began joining the movement, however by early 1962, The Void began a slow transition into a movement into a cult comprising of it's own religion, ideologies, beliefs and their own military force, Matis Dominykas Jr's book also began publishing worldwide and into the United States of Megaton and Columbia and many other known world governments, further escalating the spread of the concept of The Void including the movement. 
== Worldwide spread ==
Months prior to the worldwide spread, the book written and published by Matis Dominykas Jr. began publishing and spreading throughout all countries including the United States of Megaton and Columbia, St. Ark Federation and into Mesothemia, like many other people, this influenced many people to create seperate groups of the movement with many different beliefs and many form of movements.
The worldwide spread contributed and led to many other people influenced by the books and the beliefs of Matis Dominykas Jr. to create seperate divisions of The Void in many other countries, however most of these seperate and foreign organizations related to the book and their beliefs in achieving total freedom of humanity are small, however the most strongest foreign organization related to the book was located in the United States of Megaton and Columbia.
The worldwide spread of the ideals published by Matis Dominykas Jr. had threatened the interests by world governments, and there began the prosecution.
== Condemnation by world governments ==
In the mid 60s, the doomsday cult movement known as The Void emerging from the ideals and beliefs from a former scientist had threatened world governments and their interests, including the funding of the project, as conspiracy theorists and members influenced by the books and the words from the movement forced many of their hands into revealing most of these documents affiliated with the project, further increasing condemnation by world governments, most of these countries responded with sanctions, while some responded with critical actions to the movement.
The first condemnation of the movement by a government was in the United States of Megaton and Columbia, demanding several leaders and several important members of the movement to halt what they were allegedly doing, the reason for the condemnation was the threat of national security being leaked to the public opinion, and throughout the decades the United States of Megaton and Columbia had launched sanctions towards its members for planned terrorist attacks and protests against world governments, and in the 70s the United States of Megaton and Columbia declared the movement as a terrorist group.
The second condemnation of the movement was by the Republic of Bistonia, as the movement damaged the countrys reputation, despite Bistonia's policies of freedom of speech and laws preventing the government including agencies into interfering movements, cults and many other religious sectors, the Republic of Bistonia condemned the movement for allegedly threatening national security and completely paralyzing progress in research and science, it was seen as a desperate move and attempt to halt the movement from achieving their beliefs and concepts.
Another condemnation against the movement was by the People's Republic of Crimsonia, as the movement began spreading throughout their cities, the People's Republic of Crimsonia heavily criticised the concepts of The Void and Matis Dominykas Jr. because of his betrayal, claiming that the movement is a fraud and claiming that the movement is completely destroying law and order within their cities, because of The Void's reputation being a cult, they were also prosecuted and hunted down, including members of the communist party claiming that the so called void and their aims are complete fake and impossible.
Mesothemia responded with arrests made to publishers and library owners who had possessed a stock of the books, and condemning the actions by the movement, Mesothemia and several other countries demanded that the movement should not be harsh, not much is known about their relations about the movement. 
== Protests ==
During the rise of the movement through the 60s and the 80s, The Void had a long history of being associated with protests across countries such as Bistonia, Crimsonia and the United States of Megaton and Columbia, most of these protests involved targeting government members and buildings including raiding a parliament in New Vilnius, however most of these protests were not as big and not popular within the public opinion, and most of these protests were not planned or either successful at achieving their goals.
However, not much is known about the movements attempts and protests throughout the countries, but during Mr. Braun's last broadcasts in New Vilna Radio, it was allegedly reported that members of the known group had raided the parliament quarters in New Vilnius, and that their leader had been detained for interrogation and released on bail, this was the first time that Bistonian police had cracked down on the movement in a furious attempt, in the end, the leader of the movement, one of the last scientists that contributed to the movement had been sentenced to death.
A full broadcast and mentioning of the protest is written here.
Today is Wednesday, 17th February 1986, and we are up to some very devastating news. The doomsday cult organization called The Void, allegedly created by scientists of the New Vilnius Research Facility, gathered to storm parliament, this sotmring was halted by police and the leader of the organization was arrested and released on bail. 
A second broadcast mentioning the cult can be also written here.
Members of the doomsday cult organization, The Void, demonstrated against the courts act to sentence the leader to death for stealing documents in government offices.
A third broadcast by Mr. Braun was recorded describing the aftermath of the leader of The Void, after his detainment and bail, he was executed for raiding parliament and desecrating government offices later on after the broadcast in 1986.
The doomsday cult organization, The Void, suffered after its main leader was sentenced to death, key members of this supposed doomsday cult were also arrested.
However, it is not known whether the movement would continue to protest for their beliefs to be achieved by world governments.
== Terrorist Attacks ==
During the 70s and 80s, the youth culture inspired and influenced by The Void was mislead about the beliefs created by Matis Dominykas Jr, and over 20% of its members had never read his book about the concepts of The Void and his beliefs, because of this, members of the movement began following his movements in the wrong path, causing terror throughout the streets in the pursuit of political aims, and violated theories and the ideology created by Matis Dominykas, because of this, the movement gained a bad reputation within the public opinion and globally throughout the world, this also contributed to an event called the Great Split and the Great Purification.
Most of these terrorist attacks involve the assassination of political officials and the constant prosecution of known critics to the movement including those who debunked the theories created by the founder of the movement, most of these terrorists attacks were common in most well known countries where the movement's presence had a strong ground.
Because of these terrorist attacks carried out by seperate believers of The Void, the movement gained a bad reputation and further distanced foreign groups associated with the main organization of the movement in Bistonia, leading to the Great Split and the Great Purification, a catastrophic event for the cult including many civillians who were innocent and not involved with the event.
== Conspiracy theories ==
Because of the background of the founder of The Void and the mass influence gained by controversial conspiracy theorists, The Void had a history of conspiracy theories claiming that world governments were behind disasters and catastrophic events, including alleged alien sightings, most of these conspiracy theories were debunked and most of these were attempts to boost morale within The Void.
=== 1989 New Shingleton Incident ===
The 1989 New Shingleton Incident was a catastrophic incident and was mainly blamed on by the People's Republic of Crimsonia, however members of The Void claimed that it was a completely different scenario and that the New Shingleton Incident wasn't caused by Crimsonian terrorists, they allegedly blamed the United States of Megaton and Columbia and the St. Ark Federation, claiming that they were commencing an operation to end the Crimsonian-Bistonian War and end Crimsonian terrorist attacks.
However, this conspiracy theory was easily debunked as the St. Ark Federation had no affiliation with Petrusca Village or the person behind it, Zhukov, and bitter relations between the Federation and the United States of Megaton and Columbia made this alleged operation impossible, however in the end no such evidence was gained to achieve the theory.
=== 2003 Columbia Attacks ===
The 2003 Columbia attacks were the most deadliest transportation attack in the United States of Megaton and Columbia, killing nearly 4,000 people in the attacks, however The Void movement claimed that it was a much more different scenario aswell and had a detailed theory claiming that the Columbia Attacks were false.
The conspiracy theory about the Columbia Attacks was that it was a controlled demolition and that it was used as a justification to completely destroy the Democratic Republic of Sidan, this theory was known as the Columbian Theory, where it was stated that the United States of Megaton and Columbia and the government used the controlled demolition to justify the genocide and rampant conflict in the Arabic states, this was a well known theory within modern-day Sidan.
However, this was easily debunked as the Columbia Attacks was not a controlled demolition, although it was used as a justification to completely rule and spread their influence on Arabic states, the main theory about the Columbia Attacks were debunked.
== Prosecution by world governments ==
Because of the reputation gained by terrorist attacks and the ideals and radical beliefs by Matis Dominykas Jr, governments across the world in the 80s had prosecuted and cracked down on the movement, making The Void the most prosecuted organization throughout the world, because of this, most foreign organizations related to The Void were forced to handle their activities underground and in hidden areas.
The first prosecution of the organization was the Democratic Republic of Sidan in 1971, the military government saw The Void as a terrorist organization and due to its radicalist islamist views, it saw The Void as a secular and evil movement aimed at destroying religion including its artifacts and monuments, because of this, The Void was heavily censored from libraries and pages throughout the country including any mentioning of the group, it was also banned from the Democratic Republic of Sidan years and many members faced torture or beheadings.
The second prosecution of the movement was the People's Republic of Crimsonia later on in 1974, throughout the early years, the People's Republic of Crimsonia saw The Void as a cult and group attempting to spread their own ideology and beliefs including their theories, because of this, the country heavily criticised many of its leading members including books, The Void was also banned from the People's Republic of Crimsonia and unlike Sidan, most of these members were forced to undergo rehabilitation into society.
Another prosecution by another government was the United States of Megaton and Columbia the following year in 1974, because of the dangerous threat posed to the government and the danger of national security, The Void was banned from doing activities, with their books also being burned and prohibited to read and possess, however the prosecution of the movement was very light in the United States of Megaton and Columbia.
The last prosecution was the St. Ark Federation the next year in 1975, because of the same dangerous threat posed to the Federation, the movement was banned from doing activities and spreading their beliefs, including the banning of the founders book, and most of the members and leaders were forced to undergo rehabilitation into society, similar to the actions of the People's Republic of Crimsonia. 
== Public opinion ==
Public opinion and their thoughts on the movement and the cult led to mixed reactions of the rise of the movement, terrorist attacks and prosecution by world governments and the ideals and beliefs stated by Matis Dominykas Jr, the public opinion on the movement claimed that the ideals written by Matis himself was completely right while the concept and existence of the Void Project was completely wrong, and some claim that it was unnecessary to spread terror and form a cult surrounding his ideals.
Public opinion towards the movement in several countries painted a different picture and different thinking of the movement, for example in the Democratic Republic of Sidan, many others in the city of Rbyealramal claim that the movement was associated with the devil due to their ideals involving the destruction of religion in achieving a free and purified world.
The conclusion about the public opinion's thoughts on the movement is that Matis was right in his beliefs for a free world and disagreed with the existence of the Void Project, and disagreed on why his theories were right and disagreed on the explanation on why everybody could join his movement.
== The Great Split ==
The Great Split was a massive catastrophic disaster for The Void movement, as many foreign organizations and overseas movements linked to The Void seperated into two groups, attempting to fight eachother to put their different beliefs on the high ground, and eventually ended up in causing an event later on known as the Great Purification, the Great Split was controversial and nearly destroyed hopes for the movement to rise, the split eventually affected most members and civillians in several countries such as the Republic of Bistonia, St. Ark Federation, United States of Megaton and Columbia, and many other more.
During the 70s and 80s, the youth culture inspired and influenced by The Void was mislead about the beliefs created by Matis Dominykas Jr, and over 20% of its members had never read his book about the concepts of The Void and his beliefs, because of this, members of the movement began following his movements in the wrong path, causing terror throughout the streets in the pursuit of political aims, and violated theories and the ideology created by Matis Dominykas, because of this, the movement gained a bad reputation within the public opinion and globally throughout the world, this also contributed to an event called the Great Split and the Great Purification. Most of these terrorist attacks involve the assassination of political officials and the constant prosecution of known critics to the movement including those who debunked the theories created by the founder of the movement, most of these terrorists attacks were common in most well known countries where the movement's presence had a strong ground.
Because of these terrorist attacks carried out by seperate believers of The Void, the movement gained a bad reputation and further distanced foreign groups associated with the main organization of the movement in Bistonia, leading to the Great Split and the Great Purification, a catastrophic event for the cult including many civillians who were innocent and not involved with the event.
The Great Split began with both sides of the movement causing a infighting, this eventually led to the split of the main movement in Bistonia, and fractured into two different factions which would later on face eachother against eachother in the Great Purification, with the opposition side of the movement being called the Underground Void and the original side being the Concept Void, both sides have different beliefs and different aims.
Then, eventually foreign groups began splitting eachother and joined both sides of the Underground Void and the Concept Void, further splitting the movement apart away from the main goals of the movement and cult, and eventually the death of the main leader would end the process of the Great Split and after his death, the movement had been split into two organizations with different beliefs, this affected foreign organizations linked to The Void movement worldwide, later on after the Great Split, many influential members and conspiracy theorists aimed to cause an event known as The Great Purification.
== The Great Purification ==
The Great Purification was an event where in 1972 the Void movement gained national attention worldwide as the fractured organizations of the Underground Void and the Concept Void began a full on war against eachother which involved assassinations of members and influential people associated with the movements, and causing terror to erupt across the streets of cities in foreign countries where the movement had a presence, and thousands died in the process of the purification.
Months prior to the event, the Great Purification was planned by influential members and conspiracy theorists still remaining in the Concept Void, the Great Purification was planned to be an attempt to assassinate members and influential high key members of the Underground Void to force all of its members and the entire administration of the organization to merge again as one single organization, the Great Purification was also an attempt to exterminate many members that tarnished the reputation of the movement and those who have different beliefs that damaged the reputation of the original founder of The Void, hence the name the Great Purification.
The Great Purification began in 1972 in the city of New Vilnius in the afternoon, as members of the Concept Void began gathering weapons to raid the main headquarters of the Underground Void, eventually the raid of the main headquarters was considered a success and the Concept Void seized the main headquarters of the Underground Void, losing their main center of command, eventually thoughout several countries, the Concept Void began using their members to form militia groups to tackle down the Underground Void and convince the group to merge with them back together, eventually hundreds of influential members, conspiracy theorists and many other innocent members of the Underground Void were shot, kidnapped, and missing, however the group was unaware of the attacks made by the Concept Void, however they attempt to retaliate in the middle of the Democratic Republic of Sidan and succeeded in destroying the presence of the Concept Void in Sidan.
Eventually because of the crack down of the Underground Void, many countries began deploying their troops to protect the streets of main cities throughout the global world, preventing a small chance of many people being shot and leaving more survivors having a chance at escaping the terror caused by members of the Concept Void, eventually many world governments began cracking down on key locations and buildings of the Concept Void, and because of the crackdown, the Concept Void halted its operations on the Great Purification, ending the catastrophic event.
The Great Purification lasted over 5 days and in those days, the Great Purification brought devastation to the Underground Void and many of its members and locations, as the Underground Void was reduced to more than 2,480 members, leaving the Concept Void to be victorious and the main successor of the movement, and officially reuniting the organizations, however the Underground Void began hiding in many areas in the Democratic Republic of Sidan, and currently hides to the modern day.
== Zebralien Conspiracy ==
In the organization of The Void, the movement by the late 60s had hundreds of known conspiracy theorists all across the global world that were connected to the Zebralien Conspiracy, one of the most controversial and most often spoken conspiracy theory in the movement, claiming that there were a group of extraterrestrial beings. 
The Zebraliens were extraterrestrial beings from a different galaxy and universe million light years away, these extraterrestrial beings were hypothesized to be one of the most superior races and beings of the universe and many theories claim that they had formed an advanced galactic empire that span throughout many different worlds called the Zebralien Empire, this galactic empire had xenophobic policies and reigned terror in planets on their rule, they treated different beings in these planets and galaxies as second class citizens and the Zebralien army were far more advanced than any civilization militia, having built large scale airships and large cities designed for the high class, most of their airships were spotted across Bistonia. 
The Zebralien Conspiracy claims that world governments were forming an alliance and forming a connection with the Zebraliens, with UFO sightings across Bistonia as evidence to support the claim, however many world governments denied the alliance and formation of connection with extraterrestrial beings and also denied the conspiracy as being fictional. 
== Federation War (1974 - 1976) ==
The Federation War (aka. War on the Sea) was a war between the St. Ark Federation and the Republic of Bistonia which began in May 18th 1974 and ended in June 12th 1976 by the Treaty of New Shingleton, the war lasted 2 years and ended in an estimated 600,000 people dead and the Commonwealth of United Nations recognizing the genocide that occured and launching sanctions and bombarding the country, it is only mentioned in the New Shingleton lore.
The goals of the St. Ark Federation were nearly similar to the justifications of war in the Crimsonian-Bistonian War, their plans were to conquer and assert it's dominance over the Bistonian Sea, after Bistonia's announcement of discovering oil beneath their waters, and is rich in resources, the St. Ark Federation also plans to annex the Catholic majority South Bistonia and the second largest city in Bistonia, Mazoji.
However, during the conflict between Federation and Bistonian troops, The Void took advantage of the situation in the Federation War with alleged conspiracy theories claiming that the Federation did not want to achieve in conquering Southern Bistonia, but obtain the nuclear weapon of the Void Project, however this conspiracy was completely debunked and that the Federation did not aim to obtain nuclear weapons, and only wanted Southern Bistonia.
During the Federation War, the movement also took advantage and settled into the Scattered Islands without being noticed, there they converted an old building into their headquarters, and by the events of New Shingleton in 1989, the old building was claimed by the St. Ark National Democratic Forces after they forcefully evicted them out of the Scattered Islands.
==Crimsonian-Bistonian War (1987 - 1990)==
The Crimsonian-Bistonian War was a war between the People's Republic of Crimsonia and the Republic of Bistonia which began in 16th July 1987 and ended in 23rd August 1990 by the Treaty of Kraibrezhen, the war lasted 3 years and ended in an estimated 1 million dead and the Commonwealth of United and Free Nations recognizing the mass genocide that occured, it is also mentioned in the mapping lore and New Shingleton.
The justifications of war by the People's Republic of Crimsonia was to dominate the Bistonian Sea and establish a puppet state in Bistonia and support communist insurgencys in establishing the Bistonian People's Republic, and also ended the Republic of Bistonia in a coup d'etat.
Like many other controversial events, the movement took advantage of the conflict and began spreading their presence secretly in the city of Mazoji, however many influential members in the movement planned and aimed to takeover the city of Mazoji in an effort to preserve the movement and protect the command structure of the movement within the city in 1988 after the Siege of Mazoji, however this failed as Bistonian troops began marching into the city.
== Overseas movements ==
Prior to the creation of overseas Void movements across the global world, The Void movement had been growing in size rapidly after the publishing of the book, because of this, The Void began using its money to invest in the creation of seperate Void movements across the world which would be controlled by the center of command in the city of New Vilnius, however most of these investments turned out to be completely useless as world governments began persecuting the movement overseas, and the Great Split and Great Purification would split these foreign groups apart.
=== Republic of Bistonia ===
The Republic of Bistonia is where the movement's main command center is located, in the city of New Vilnius, it is where the movement was founded from the ideals of Matis Dominykas Jr, and the largest branch is located, however The Void did not face any persecution from the Bistonian government due to its policies prohibiting persecution of cult groups and movements, this left the movement advantage to grow without any problems. However the Crimsonian-Bistonian War and the Federation War would nearly cause the movement to fracture. The Republic of Bistonia condemned the movement for allegedly threatening national security and completely paralyzing progress in research and science, it was seen as a desperate move and attempt to halt the movement from achieving their beliefs and concepts.
=== United States of Megaton and Columbia ===
The United States of Megaton and Columbia is where the largest branch of the movement is located and where most of the movements conspiracy theorists originated from, their headquarters were in the downtown areas of New York, however not much is known about the information of the largest branch, although the Great Split affected the branch of the movement including the Great Purification, because of this, the United States of Megaton and Columbia designated the movement as a terrorist group. Because of the dangerous threat posed to the government and the danger of national security, The Void was banned from doing activities, with their books also being burned and prohibited to read and possess, however the prosecution of the movement was very light in the United States of Megaton and Columbia, which allowed the movement to get away with its actions.
However to this day, the USMC branch of The Void is still banned from the country due to its actions in the 70s and many members face persecution, the movement and cult remains hidden throughout the states and the movement had withdrew their presence from the larger cities in the United States of Megaton and Columbia.
=== People's Republic of Crimsonia ===
In the People's Republic of Crimsonia, The Void had created a branch inside the country and along with many other branches of the movement invested into the group, the movement began spreading throughout cities in the country, and with many other countries banned the movement from operating within its borders in the 70s later on, the Crimsonian government heavily criticized the concepts of The Void and the original founder of the movement, they claim that the movement is a fraud and that the movement aims to completely destroy law and order to their cities. They were also prosecuted and hunted down.
The PRC branch of The Void had been banned from the country from operating until the collapse of Crimsonia in 1995, by the events of 1989 the branch of the movement is hiding and operating in unknown areas throughout mainland Crimsonia after the Great Split and the Great Purification, fearing the purge of many of its members in the state.
=== St. Ark Federation ===
Although gaining a bad reputation by the movement for hiring mercenaries to execute the original founder of the movement, Matis Dominykas Jr. in New Vilnius, The Void had invested thousands in helping the creation of a seperate branch of the movement in the St. Ark Federation, however due to the Federation's policies, they had been constantly persecuted and most of the influential members associated with the Federation branch were executed or assassinated in Bistonia, the branch had a difficult time setting up their official headquarters including the books.
However, later on in the Federation War in 1975, the Federation passed a law banning The Void movement from operating publicly, including their books from libraries across the Federation, the reason for the ban was the threat of national security and the dangerous presence carried on by the movement, however by the events of New Shingleton in 1989, the Void movement had been completely exiled from the mainland, and their headquarters were hidden in the Scattered Islands.
=== Democratic Republic of Sidan ===
The main command of the movement in Bistonia had funded and invested thousands in creating a seperate branch of the movement in the Democratic Republic of Sidan, however due to the beliefs, the population in Sidan organized angry mobs that heavily persecuted its members, some going as far as to execute and behead them, however the government had done nothing to combat the situation, however the Great Split and the Great Purification further escalated the tension, and the branch was forced into hiding, Sidan was also where the Underground Void's last presence was located. 
The Void still remains operating in the Democratic Republic of Sidan in a hidden and unknown area, however the Great Split which split the group between the Underground Void and Concept Void had devastated the operations, however the Underground Void along with its funded private militia, pushed out the Concept Void's presence from Sidan, retaining and preserving the ideals of the Underground Void. The military government saw The Void as a terrorist organization and due to its radicalist islamist views, it saw The Void as a secular and evil movement aimed at destroying religion including its artifacts and monuments, because of this, The Void was heavily censored from libraries and pages throughout the country including any mentioning of the group, it was also banned from the Democratic Republic of Sidan and many members faced torture or beheadings.
In 1989, like many other seperate branches of The Void, had been forced to operate in secret and hidden places across places across Sidan, and withdrawing their presence from Rbyealramal, Nahrjadid and many other more cities in Sidan, however the invasion of the Democratic Republic of Sidan in 2008 gave the underground movement freedom to roam around with their presence.
=== Republic of Zedrutian ===
In the democratic constitution of the Republic of Zedrutian, adopted by the national assembly in 1985, guarantees a multi-party state with freedoms of religion, speech and assembly, prohibition of practice of forced medical experimentation, torture, corporal punishment, and the acknowledgement of the inviolability of the home, the right to form trade unions and the right for the population to strike. The legal system of Zedrutia is based on the principle of civil rights, governed by the code of civil law.
Because of this, The Void had invested in alot of money into the seperate branch of The Void within the Republic of Zedrutian, because of the government's neutral opinion and reaction towards their actions towards the movement, the movement eventually gained stable ground and the ability to roam their presence throughout the Republic of Zedrutian and their cities, and creating a militia dedicated to defending the cult and movement from any attacks, eventually the seperate branch of the movement became stronger compared to seperate branches of the movement worldwide.
However, the Great Split and Great Purification did not also affect the branch in the Republic of Zedrutian, including their eventual decline, however the beginning of the Third Great War and predictions of an all out devastation and destruction of humanity would force the movement and cult to halt their funding and invest and fund to build hundreds of nuclear shelters across the country for its members, this eventually contributed to the Void militia causing an uprising, eventually it would be put down and by the time they were completely destroyed, the nuclear bombs had destroyed and devastated humanity in an hour, and many members had fled to nuclear shelters.
== Murders ==
Throughout the history of the movement, many of its influential members, leaders and people who were not involved in the movement had been murdered for being involved in the movement, this contributed for the movement as being one of the most prosecuted movements worldwide, with the first leader of the movement, Matis Dominykas Jr. being shot in the streets of New Vilnius by mercenaries hired by the Federation.

== Leaders ==
Throughout the years of The Void movement and cult, the movement had dozens of leaders through the decades, some were peaceful while some were violent, with some being overthrown by members of the movement including getting executed governments, however most of these leaders did not contribute very well to the movement and these are a list of leaders who had contributed alot into the progress of the movement.
=== Matis Dominykas Jr. ===
Matis Dominykas Jr. is the original author of the book and the original founder of The Void, originally a leading scientist in the New Vilnius Research Facility, he was fired along with many of his colleagues for misconduct, 5 days after he was fired from the New Vilnius Research Facility he wrote a book describing about the project, including his personal opinions on the matter, and how he wanted to stop world governments from using the deadly weapon and how it should've been destroyed, including why it was necessary to join his movement and believe in his theories, along with many of his colleagues he founded the movement and sealed his ideals and beliefs inside the movement.
However, his leadership did not last long as Matis Dominykas Jr. in late 1960 was found by a mercenary force and was shot in the downtown streets of New Vilnius, after his death the legacy he brought into founding the movement was admired by many members from the research facility and inspired influential people and conspiracy theorists to unite and rise up against world goverments for truth and eliminating the Void Project, 
, he was eventually found by a mercenary force allegedly funded by the St. Ark Federation, and shot in the streets of New Vilnius, after his death, the legacy he brought onto founding the movement was admired by many several members from the former research facility, and inspired many others to rise up against world governments for truth and eliminating the so called "Void Project".
=== Kristijonas Algimantas Paulauskas ===
Kristijonas Algimantas Paulauskas was the successor of his colleague and leading scientist Matis Dominykas Jr and ascended his position 3 days after the original leaders death and funeral, he was also originally one of the leading scientists of the New Vilnius Research Facility until he was fired for misconduct along with many other scientists, during the administration of Kristijonas, he promoted and allowed the movement to spread along with the ideals and beliefs, he also admired the ideals of the book and also organized protests and invested thousands of cash into creating a militia, he also allowed freedom and promised a safe haven for conspiracy theorists and influential members.
Eventually, his rule over the Void movement ended, as he was found by the same mercenary force that took down Matis Dominykas Jr and was also shot in the downtown areas of New Vilnius, the reason for this assassination was because of the threats that he posed to the St. Ark Federation after funding a militia dedicated to protecting the movement and for national security reasons.
=== Leonas Tomas Žukauskas ===
Leonas Tomas Žukauskas was the successor of the former leading scientist of Kristijonas Algimantas Paulauskas, he was one of the last remaining founding people of the movement and the last leading scientist that joined and contributed to the movement, he ascended to his position as leader of the movement a day after the assassination of Kristijonas Algimantas Paulauskas and in a speech promised to continue the policies of Kristijonas Algimantas Paulauskas, however he abandoned his aims at continuing and violated the ideals and beliefs he would remain to continue as stated in a rule section of the book written by Matis Dominykas Jr.
He carried along a reign of terror under his rule, as he purged opponents and changed his beliefs and ideals within the movement, he also led the Concept Void into victory in the Great Purification and descended into total madness in the aftermath of the catastrophic event, making him one of the most tyrannical leaders of the movement and one of the most wanted people throughout the countries and world governments.
Eventually, his reign of terror ended in the year of 1986 when he organized a strike on parliament in the city of New Vilnius which failed, in reaction to the strike that was commenced by Leonas Tomas Žukauskas, the Bistonian authorities detained the leader for interrogation and he was released on bail by his supporters, however after a trial he was sentenced to death months after the strike and he was hanged afterwards, ending an era of the movement being led by former leading scientists from the New Vilnius Research Facility.
=== Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki ===
Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki is one of the last legitimate leaders of the remnants of the movement in the following years after the Third Great War and the destruction of humanity in 2079, he was born inside a nuclear shelter in 2098 funded and built by the movement in the former shells of Yarezovsk and was raised by Polish parents, when he reached 20 years of age the entire nuclear shelter and all of its inhabitants evacuated the shelter in 2118, during his early years, Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki along with many of the inhabitants of the shelter began to recreate the former movement and preserve the ideals and beliefs of Matis Dominykas Jr.
Eventually, during the recreation of the movement, Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki was exposed to a high amount of radiation in the basement of an abandoned cathedral from the prewar era of Zedrutia and he was mutated beyond recognition, instead of having terrible emotions, he saw the mutation as a sort of gift given to god himself, and in many routinely rituals by the elders of the cult and movement, he would eventually kidnap most of the inhabitants from the former bunker and expose them to high doses of radiation and brutally mutate them in an attempt to form his own version of the cult, eventually it worked and it led to the Second Great Split in post-war Zedrutia.
Eventually, Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki would eventually face his greatest enemy inside a pre-war giant robot, however he would eventually lose control due to the malfunction and neglect of the robot, and then the machine would eventually explode, destroying Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki's body into pieces but remained conscious, he would eventually die afterwards at the age of 57 in the year 2155, and then eventually his cult would be reduced to remnants.
== New Vilnius Research Facility Response ==
Throughout the spread and the peak of the Void movement, the New Vilnius Research Facility had made statements regarding to the movement for decades, these statements had positive and negative opinions on the matter of the movement and the book that started the movement, the response included a denial of many controversial projects and horrific acts in the name of research, and the massive investment for tougher security aswell.
The administration in the New Vilnius Research Facility denied any existence of the Void Project despite major evidence backing up the existence of the project, and claimed that the sector involved in the creation of the so called Void Project was meant for a different purpose and not for studies and research into nuclear weapons, eventually throughout the years, the New Vilnius Research Facility began dismantling parts of the sectors and converted it into a sector meant for weapons research instead of nuclear ones.
They also responded to the actions of Matis Dominykas Jr, despite his death in the hands of foreign mercenaries, the New Vilnius Research Facility also denied any involvement in his assassination, and claimed that the contents of the facility described within the book was fake and considered the book as a sort of fictional diary in an attempt for Matis Dominykas to gain power and eventually destroy all of the research within the facility, the administration also denied the horrific conditions within the facility, as it guaranteed safe research and abided by the laws of science. The administration also claimed that his reason for being fired from the facility as misconduct was fairly justified, and that it had nothing to do with the halting of the alleged project.
Because of the actions of the New Vilnius Research Facility, the administration bribed hundreds of officials to coverup the existence of the project in exchange for a high potential of obtaining the deadly nuclear weapon, and also hired many mercenaries to assassinate those who were eventually going to expose the horrific actions in the New Vilnius Research Facility, the administration continued to deny the bribes and the involvement of mercenaries as an attempt to retain the facilities reputation, and sometimes throughout the global world sent many of its high ranking officials to infiltrate the movement itself.
In response regarding to security, the New Vilnius Research Facility spent millions of dollars sealing the project and heavily guarding the surroundings and presence of the facility, sometimes even planning to construct a shield to protect the facility with an entire subway system the only way for entry, however the planning of a massive shield to guard the facility was halted due to it being considered impossible. The New Vilnius Research Facility also built massive walls surrounding the facility and had the most advanced security systems inside the facility to prevent any information from coming out into the public opinion.
In conclusion, the New Vilnius Research Facility will continue to deny any existence or proof that the Void Project existed including most of its humanitarian violations, and the administration would do anything it took to stop any information coming out of the facility and a possible breach in the research facility itself, the administration would hire many mercenary groups to take down any possible influential member of the movement and would send spies to infiltrate the facility to gather information.
==Cold War Aftermath (1990 - 2001)==
During the late 80s, the world of the Eastern Bloc has seen drastic change as radical policies involving the transparency and openess of the press led to the eventual collapse of the Eastern Bloc, leaving the Union of Ruralia and the People's Republic of Crimsonia as the remaining Mesothemian communist states, eventually collapsing afterwards due to instability within their cities.
Because of this, the Void movement lost support by the population as total nuclear war became a thing of the past as the world began opening up and many dictatorships began to collapse, the movement also began to dwindle in members and many conspiracy theorists began leaving the cult and movement and went into rural areas within Bistonia, the Void movement also lost hundreds of millions of cash and the movement was on the verge of losing its support and would eventually decline and collapse. Throughout the world, the last remaining seperate group of the movement, the Underground Void, still remained prosecuted and threatened by the leading branch of the group, however most of these threats eventually dropped throughout the 90s.
Eventually, as the fate of total nuclear war had been finally sealed, world governments throughout the world had begun the process of cracking down the rest of the structure of the movement, investing millions of dollars raiding headquarters of the seperate branches of the cult and detaining former members involved in the movement, however the crackdown on the movement failed and the Void remained and continued to function until its eventual destruction in 2079.
==Decline==
After the collapse of the Eastern Bloc, the movement lost support of the people including their sources of income years prior, and a major crackdown on their militia and members connected to the movement forced them to hide their operations somewhere within the nearby towns in New Vilnius, this eventually contributed and escalated their decline in the 2000s.
The movement had lost millions of dollars and many members at a rapid rate in the late 90s and had been reduced to just thousands of members in seperate branches, despite laws enacting openness for the movement to spread further in countries like the Republic of Sidan, the movement still continued to decline, the sales regarding the book written by Matis Dominykas Jr. which led to the group losing their main source of income.
== Modern Day ==
In the modern day, the movement is widely regarded as a completely dead movement with barely any attempts to make the movement function, while some branches of the movement retained the same beliefs and actions in the past, some branches of the movement including groups of the movement continued to function properly and transitioned some of the structure left within the movement into charities, the movement mostly relied on donations from people including what was left of their support, the movement invested into charities and provided humanitarian aid towards poor children in third world countries, investing in the construction of houses and the aid of people in poverty and famine despite their bad reputation earned in the 80s.
Because of the movements drastic change, the movements center of command cut funding on their militia group and ceased operations in the group as part of a amnesty agreement by world governments, it also had to give up most of its assets considered dangerous to use, including most of their weapons considered important within the government, the movement also distanced itself from inflicted violence to eradicate world governments and proclaimed itself neutral towards them, despite their neutral behavior they continued to aim for the destruction of authoritarian governments and a united world government with free rights and equality under their rule, and the elimination of currency and economic systems including the dissolution of the class divide and the elimination of conflict and the total destruction of war.
The fate of the veterans of the movement depend, and their fate is uncertain, as after the decline of the group, many veterans flocked to smaller groups that had a small similar goal within their hands while many veterans gave up their aims due to the bad reputation they cost the movement, many people from the former militia group were also upset about the dissolution of their armed militia and after it ceased operations many of its men resorted to creating their own organized militia using the money left from the movement.
Conspiracy theorists and many influential members within the movement fled to the mountains of Central Bistonia and some of them in the overseas branches had to come clean to the government and some had given up their aims and moved on to their normal life, while some gave up their position in the movement and continued their role as conspiracy theorists, many influential members were also arrested as part of an amnesty agreement by world governments, some of them were executed for their crimes while some were released for insufficient evidence.
== Prelude to the Third Great War ==
In the 2050s, the rise of authoritarian governments led to the verge of the Third Great War happening, the Void movement had long abandoned their aims of humanitarian aid and charities across the global world and took advantage of the rise in authoritarian governments, eventually throughout the early 2050s they had regained their popularity in numbers across the globe and many branches were revived, the movement also began operations on the once dissolved Void militia in an attempt to stop the opposition from paralyzing the development of the cult and movement.
During the prelude, many conspiracy theorists had hypothesized that the rise of authoritarian governments and the eventual beginning of the Third Great War would eventually result in total nuclear war and the constant use of the Void nuclear bomb, because of the prediction, many members of the movement had invested in the construction of 120 nuclear bomb shelters which were proven resistant towards nuclear bombs despite not knowing the true affect of the Void bomb, many of these shelters were meant to hold members of the movement in an attempt to preserve themselves from nuclear detonation.
As with the rise of the movement so did the rise of persecution and condemnation by governments worldwide, they restarted their process of attempting to liquidate the movement and attempt to crack down on the rise of the movement and its popularity including raiding many headquarters and nuclear shelters constructed and funded by the movement, however most of these persecutions committed by governments were in small scales due to the rise of tensions which will eventually contribute to the beginning of the Third Great War and the beginning of the destruction of humanity.
== Third Great War ==
Eventually, tensions between the countries in 2060 eventually led to the outbreak of the Third Great War, the final war to end all wars and conflicts within the world, and would result in the devastation of humanity and the collapse of civilization itself, and forcing most of humanity to hide underground and rebuild, it was a war with the Kradovo Alliance and the Commonwealth of United and Free Nations hoping that one day their flag would eventually fly across the whole world.
During the Third Great War, the movement had hypothesized in a private meeting that a nuclear war would eventually occur with the Void being used as a weapon to destroy humanity, the movement began alerting many of its influential members and conspiracy theories across the global world and in branches to flee to these nuclear bunkers before the decimation of the world, however most of these people refused as an agreement with the world organizations earlier prohibited the use of nuclear weapons which would decrease the chance of nuclear war ever happening, while some joined out of fear. The Void also began withdrawing its presence in cities and migrating their presence in underground metros, bunkers and sewer systems and even preparing the formation of communities that would benefit post-war society, and most of their artifacts considered religious would be placed in high key bunkers including most of their assets.
Despite their early preparation and a high chance of the movements survival, the movement had its side backs during the Third Great War, the Void militia which was organized in the 2050s earlier had been neglected for decades without any proper maintaining and proper training for their men assigned in the role of preserving the movement, some main members of the Void militia see themselves as more important than the survival and preservation of the movement and some began their protest in response to the neglect, however eventually the Void militia had a mutiny and many bribes made in attempt to halt the mutiny failed, in 2079 before the nuclear war, they began raiding nuclear shelters filled with most of their members.
== Dissolution (2079) ==
By 2079, the Third Great War had spanned decades and the situation for both sides were dire, the Commonwealth of United and Free Nations had been dismantled after their headquarters were raided by the United States of Megaton and Columbia in New York and after the purging of their main command and structure, and many remnants of the organization continued to fight against the Kradovo Alliance, and contributed to the mass uprisings in many countries worldwide, in the United States of Megaton and Columbia, a large scale uprising erupted and forced the United States of Megaton and Columbia to fight eachother for power over the country, including mutinies and mass purging and kidnappings.
Because of the situation within the Third Great War, the process of attempting to preserve the movement from nuclear annihilation was successful, with thousands of its influential members and conspiracy theorists including many civillians and members settled deep within the nuclear bunkers built by the movement, with many reservations and money flowing in, the process of migrating most of their members within the underground bunkers were successful, however there were many setbacks, the nuclear bombs occured which completely destroyed the movements main command structure and humanity pulled it down.
However, there were many setbacks which contributed to the further destruction of the movement and its members of the Void movement, the nuclear bunkers that were constructed and built were not specifically designed to handle the Void nuclear bomb which allowed elements of the black smoke to seep within the doors sealed in the bunkers, and most of these underground bunkers were crowded and had no farm to sustain itself underground, the bunkers were also designed to have doors to fail automatically in certain areas due to their bad reputation earned by members in the main command headquarters of New Vilnius.
World governments years prior to the Third Great War had destroyed most of its security systems inside the underground bunkers as part of their process of liquidating the rise of the movement, while some were fixed, most of these security systems which would help prevent radiation from seeping in and many other things were neglected because of the high cost of the repair of the systems, most of the administration of the Void ignored these claims, stating that the bunkers built worldwide for the preservation of their cult were naturally designed to prevent radiation.
The largest setback to happen within the movements last days was the Void Mutiny, the Void militia which was organized in the 2050s earlier had been neglected for decades without any proper maintaining and proper training for their men assigned in the role of preserving the movement, some main members of the Void militia see themselves as more important than the survival and preservation of the movement and some began their protest in response to the neglect, however eventually the Void militia had a mutiny which would eventually contribute to the possibility of the movement ever emerging again from the post-war world.
The Void militia had raided many of the movements headquarters and underground bunkers and purged all of the members remaining in them, killing hundreds and claiming that the movement saw the underground bunkers as an important asset more than themselves, however the mutiny was too late as many countries began bombing themselves with nuclear weapons, which caused many of their men on the way to die of the blast, with the rest of the survivors dying to radiation.
Eventually, nuclear war struck in the morning hours of Bistonia and worldwide in the morning hours of March 15th 2079, however many people showed up to the underground bunkers in small numbers, with the rest of the people reserving spaces for the bunker having being either overslept or claiming that the alarms were tests, which caused a large majority of the anticipated members in short numbers, however the situation worsened further as leading members of the Void milita led a mutiny and raided many of its headquarters and underground bunkers.
The bombs landed and in hours Bistonia and many other countries had been struck with the Void nuclear bomb, immediately spreading most of the black mist throughout the landmass and throughout cities destroyed in the impact, eventually most of the world was coated with the black smoke element as a result from the Void nuclear bomb and many animals were mutated overnight from the impact. 
As members of the movement along with the leaders of the movement began moving into the nuclear underground bunkers, problems immediately arose as the bunker was too overcrowded with many strikes, the setbacks that included the malfunctioning of several security systems and ventilation systems began killing the inhabitants remaining within the vaults, eventually radiation and black clouds started moving into the ventilation systems and covered most of the underground vaults with it, the black clouds were concerning as it would result in many of the people exposed to the element immediately dying.
Many people within the underground vaults attempted to breach out the outer heavy door with many tools and many attempts, however these doors were intentionally designed to seal them within the underground bunker permanently, and most of the inhabitants of the underground vault died due to exposure to the black and toxic smoke within the ventilation systems, those who survived had transformed into mutants and remained within the underground bunkers for a lifetime, 
As for the last leader of the movement, he eventually ended up in his own traps after a routinely ritual went wrong as the bombs dropped, he eventually found a wrong underground bunker and left most of his personal belongings outside, however this underground bunker was specifically designed to fail and was designed for members who were disobedient, eventually the leader along with his followers were exposed to the black smoke in the ventilation systems, and attempted to open the heavy door leading to the bunker which automatically failed, he died an hour later of intoxication.
Eventually, the nuclear impact and the black smoke brought down the rest of the movement along with civilization, with their ideals and beliefs having been destroyed and most of their members left surviving did not manage to carry on the preservation and recreation of the movement, eventually the movement was destroyed after the destruction of humanity in 2079, and ended centuries of operating.
Despite their destruction in the underground bunkers, many few members, conspiracy theorists and influential members survived the catastrophic disaster in the underground bunkers, mainly due to their locations, some of them survived mostly in post-war Bistonia and Zedrutia, however over the years they had moved on from their aims to reemerge from the underground bunkers and restart the movement and had raised families in these underground bunkers, decades passed and in 2082 the underground bunkers in post-war Bistonia were located in a map by the main command headquarters in New Vilnius and were raided, there most of the predecessors of the former members of the cult and movement were exterminated, only leaving 30 people descended from the movement to survive. 
In post-war Zedrutia, things were going well and not a single accident occured, this is mainly due to the movement of the branch in Zedrutia declining architects mainly involved in designing underground bunkers from Bistonia and hiring their own architects with better planning and better security systems, because of it, there was any little flaw in the design and the systems of the underground bunkers in Zedrutia, allowing many of its members to survive. 
In these underground bunkers of post-war Zedrutia, most of these underground bunkers had abandoned their faith in recreating the movement and moved on to create new lives underground, while some had retained and inherited their faith in recreating the movement, in 2090 most of their resources required to operate the bunkers had dried up and some had reopened to the post-war society, while some deserted away from the bunkers, Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki is one of those deserters. 
== Reemergence ==
In 2118, 39 years after the Third Great War and the destruction of civilization, the post-war wasteland had changed drastically, the last remnants of the movement in Bistonia had completely been gone and the last members had moved on from the aims of the movement in the post-war wasteland to settle into new lives after the incidents in the underground bunkers, with Zedrutia being the last post-war wasteland to have a slight presence of their members in underground bunkers, society had begun to emerge from bunkers and rebuild society and build towns, however most of these towns were vulnerable to raids. In the following year, what was known as Yarezovsk is now known as a raider and radiation infested city and a former shell of itself, as many people were exposed to the last substances of radiation from the nuclear war decades earlier, most of these people transformed into mutants which quickly infested the city and worsened the conditions.
In 2118, inhabitants of Bunker 4192 had emerged from the underground bunkers and planned to recreate the movement again with what was left in the middle of Yarezovsk, while some inhabitants declined and moved on, the rest of them agreed to the reformation of the Void movement and transition it to a group which will aim to aid people in the wasteland, while many locations were planned, the successor to the group of the new Void movement had discovered an abandoned cathedral in the middle of the city of Yarezovsk, there they had settled and established the main command centre of the new group, and became the first headquarters of the new Void group. 
However, there were many problems that quickly emerged within the cathedral as many mutants and bugs emerged from the basement of the cathedral, because of this, the group had assigned a group to inspect the basement and gave them weapons to assist them in taking down the source of the mutants, Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki, a 20 year old altar boy for the cult was one of the groups assigned to the task of inspecting the basement, however hours later, the inspection turned into a disaster as half of the group were killed by the mutants, with survivors emerging and some of them having minor injuries, however, Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki remained stuck within the basement and was exposed to a high amount of radiation he had disturbed, he suffered for hours in the basement as he began his slow transition into one of the mutants in the basement of the cathedral, eventually one of the members noticed him and by the time he was rescued his condition was too dire and late. 
Eventually, Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki had recovered from the high radiation exposure, but he was transformed into a mutant and he was unrecognizable to many members in the cult, however Zdzisław was not devastated or emotional to his new looks, instead he saw himself as a man who can change the wasteland forever and design the world under his rule, eventually Zdzisław's reign of terror began from this moment after his transition into a mutant, although many cult members wanted to reject him, the book written by Matis and rules given to the group years prior prevented him from exile, with Zdzisław claiming that the movement only needed him to create a new world order, and that the book prevented him from leaving the movement. Days after his mutation, Zdzisław began kidnapping members during the routinely rituals carried out by the leader of the movement within the cathedral, and trapping them into a basement to be exposed to the radiation and mutate them. 
Most of these members kidnapped and trapped within the basement transformed into mutants inside the basement filled with radioactive material, and Zdzisław had rescued and pretended that he was not the perpetrator and that they were all victims, this led most of the mutants to join his side within the movement and eventually contribute to the shifting of ideology and eventually the beginning of the Second Great Split. Most of these beliefs created by The Void have also drastically changed after nuclear war broke out and destroyed humanity within an hour, in post-war Zedrutian, the last organized and largest division of the movement had completely different beliefs instead of freedom of speech, and human rights, in this wasteland version, the movement aims to eradicate humanity and replace them with the creation of mutants, however after their destruction this was never met. 
== Ideology Shift ==
After the mutation of 15 of its members within the cathedral, the situation within the cathedral was tense. The mutants began joining Zdzisław's side and began trapping most of its disobedient members into the basements to begin their process of transformation, eventually Zdzisław saw the beliefs of the new movement as false and wrote a rulebook and a book for his new side of the movement, changing the main ideology of the Void into something else, the new group aimed to eradicate humanity and replace them with the creation of mutants in hopes of making a new and different version of mankind in the hopes of rebuilding under their rule.
Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki stated within his ideologies and beliefs that the Void shouldn't be considered a movement to stop world governments from using nuclear weapons, but a movement in the creation of a global empire in one race and claimed his movement will achieve anything it took to eradicate the final path of humanity and paralyze the recreation of civilization in hopes of preserving the world for mutants, his ideology was massively xenophobic and his ideology was flawed as he did not have enough manpower required to eradicate humanity.
The ideology shift transitioned and strengthened the movements position from a small group of people to a massive mutant militia that had posed an intense threat to the remaining underground bunkers deep within Yarezovsk and the outside world, continuing to expand its massive mutant army in numbers and mutating most of its outside wastelanders.
== The Second Great Split ==
The Second Great Split was a post-war event in 2119 in the cathedral in Yarezovsk, and involved many members that had not been transformed by Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki's minions within the cathedral disagreeing with the new ideology stated by him after his illegal takeover of the cathedral, the Second Great Split contributed to the breakup of two groups which would further distance themselves, with eventually Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki beginning his spree of terror on the wasteland in the following year afterwards and the rest of the members forming their legitimate section of the movement.
The Second Great Split began in early 2119 after Zdzisław began his spree of transforming many of the members within the cathedral into his personal minion to advance his agenda, eventually the leader of the cathedral began opposing the actions by Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki and planned to trap most of his minions and the mutant leader within the basement and attempt to flee from their presence, however this plan was a major failure and the leader had ran away from the cathedral along with his members, allowing Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki to take over full control of the cult illegally and claim the high ground for himself.
After a meeting with Zdzisław's personal minions and members who had not been transformed, both sides claimed themselves as the legitimate successor of the once known group, after a long hour argument the meeting had escalated further into a violent fight and because of this, Zdzisław and his personal minions placed a vote in order to exile human members, however by the time the vote was passed, many of the members had already fled in time away from the mutant groups presence and had cut contact and further spread throughout the destroyed city of Yarezovsk itself.
The Second Great Split and the legacy carried on in the later years led to Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki further securing his rule and establishing a new Void cult on his beliefs, and this event placed the final nail in the coffin for the fair beliefs of the once former cult, replacing it with much more xenophobic and authoritarian structures within the movement.
== Rise of The Void ==
After the Second Great Split within one of the last groups related to The Void, Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki had further secured his rule over the cathedral and the cult without any intervention by members of the group and declared himself as the true and legitimate leader of the cult, during the early years of his rule, Zdzisław had changed the structure and the functions of the cult entirely based off his own beliefs, although he admired and was inspired by Matis Dominykas Jr, he had forced many of his minions and followers to believe in his own creations and abandon his ideals and establish new political doctrines.
Eventually, Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki had commenced a plan attempting to restore the cult to its former glory, in his plans he aimed to create a mutant militia in an attempt to takeover the city of Yarezovsk and its outskirts to establish a world government and eradicate humanity completely without any delays, his ideals would be called the Great Rise, a well organized plan. His plans would officially start the following year and began with the abduction of many wastelanders surrounding the cathedral and began experimenting with them inside the basement of his cathedral, which had been now converted into a research area including an area that would involve the mutation of humans into mutants. The process was slow, but eventually he would manage to create a small but unorganized force of mutants. 
In 5 years of the Great Rise, there were enough mutants to sustain mass production, eventually Zdzisław's mutant army of men had grew rapidly into a potent military force, eventually over the years many of his men began appearing across the wasteland wreaking havoc on new communities across the wasteland in post-war Zedrutia and had reigned terror on many wastelanders, eventually his mutant army would expand throughout the communities and slaughter human survivors, in the following year the mutant army had stretched east to west, surrounding the former shell of Yarezovsk and further threatening the communities.
As a result of the Great Rise, the Void had finally secured its new position as a major power within the wasteland, with many members influenced by the ideology of Zdzisław and the cult had grew to over a hundred thousand members and imprisoning many communities in Yarezovsk, it was close to achieving the perfect society as part of their result and now became a major eyesore to the post-war wasteland of Zedrutia and many people alike.
==Yarezovsk, Zedrutia (2154 - 2155)==
In the year 2154, 70 years after the Third Great War would eventually contribute to the destruction of civilization, the former shell of Yarezovsk and their surroundings had been surrounded by danger and conflict again, as many factions in the post-war wasteland began popping up while some attempt to wipe out the Void, many people in post-war Yarezovsk and communities established by survivors after the bombs faced starvation, famine, raiders and major conflict, with the cult, The Void, threatening the situation within Yarezovsk.
By 2154, The Void had grew into a massive military organization, it had cut Yarezovsk from contact with the rest of post-war Zedrutia and had starved them to death, with Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki being the main leader of the cult, however the achievements were not enough for the new military and political organization and many influential members had control over the divisions of the mutant army, they also had sought out to conquer the rest of Yarezovsk, however before it could be achieved, it had to raid many underground bunkers related to the movement before the war with many people remaining in an attempt to gather more troops and manpower for the war against Yarezovsk and the fate of humanity. However, Zdzisław did not account for the interference of a man known to be from the communities of Yarezovsk. The war on Yarezovsk was also on the verge of beginning in a year.
However, there were many setbacks of the cult, even if they had conquered Yarezovsk, The Void would fail along with Zdzisław's plans, mainly due to the flaws of his cult structure, many influential members who had controlled military divisions had worse relations with Zdzisław by 2152 mainly due to his tolerance and would contribute to alot of infighting within the cult, eventually by the events of Yarezovsk, influential members along with military divisions were on the verge of fracturing with the death of Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki one year later putting the final nail in the coffin.
The largest problem that also concerned the development and rise of the cult in the post-war wasteland is the lack of weaponry and ammunition, despite having a large army and had spanned across Yarezovsk, Zdzisław's army of mutants had lack of ammunition and weaponry required for organized combat, their main source of gaining weaponry was from raiding small caravans and seizing most of them from their conquered communities, despite their reliability, these weapons were low in quality and were frequent to jamming, and the problem that would eventually be the cherry on top for the lack of weaponry was ammunition, most of the caravans and communities had a small supply of decent ammunition for a large military force which would still not supply all of their men with new ammunition, in conclusion they had little to no ammunition to sustain its large army and eventually contribute to the collapse of the cult. 
== Destruction (2155) ==
The Void as a major military organization and cult was on the verge of success, until in early 2155 the military organization would suddenly face its complete destruction after the death of Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki in the hands of a so called "Great Enemy", in which The Void claimed that he had posed a threat to the progressive state of the military organization months prior, with the split of influential members placing the final nail in the coffin for the miltia, and ending the dire situation within the city of Yarezovsk, and forever changing the post-war wasteland for years to come.
Before the complete destruction of The Void, the militia had begun its operation into raiding vaults and nearby communities with several raids being a decisive victory for the organization, however this contributed to Zdzisław's great enemy emerging from the underground bunkers and eventually help out people within the wasteland, the militia had tried everything to track him down including interrogating many people to know his path, however eventually after 23 days, he had tracked down Zdzisław and in early 2155, he had arrived in Zdzisław's main command centre in order to exterminate him to save the post-war wasteland, as Zdzisław began to confront him, Zdzisław had stepped into a pre-war robot in a desperate attempt to eradicate him in order to make the operation and war stabilize quickly.
However, there were many problems with the robot prior to Zdzisław's confrontation with his biggest enemy, the robot was barely maintained and despite lasting for a hundred years, many of its circuits allowing further control of the robot including many weapons would malfunction within the robot, sometimes even detonating the weapon inside the robot, the circuits also slightly changed the robots movements which prevented Zdzisław from moving properly.
Eventually, during a clash with his enemy, the systems within the giant robot had malfunctioned due to the damage inflicted during his combat, eventually Zdzisław was shocked to the point he was paralyzed and eventually within 20 seconds the giant robot began detonating rockets still remaining inside within the giant robot, in the process of the explosion, Zdzisław had been burnt alive and his entire body exploded into pieces, he would eventually succumb to his injuries minutes later and then eventually Zdzisław had passed away at the age of 57 in 2155, hours later his body would be eventually discovered and retrieved into the cathedral, where a proper burial was given to what was left of Zdzisław's body, with his legs, torso and head remaining, his death sparked the fracture and destruction of The Void entirely.
Eventually, 5 days after his burial the operation commenced by the militia had been halted and eventually many influential members had distanced themselves away from the movement along with their divisions and army due to the lack of leadership and the unstable political structure of the cult, further collapsing the militia and further opening Yarezovsk in contact with the rest of the outside world, but eventually these divisions would be wiped out and eradicated by groups hosted by local sheriffs in an attempt to destroy the mutant armies to protect the communities in Yarezovsk, in the process only 2 divisions containing over 5,000 mutant men remained.
Throughout the years, The Void as a whole ceased to exist and disintegrate after many of its successors had been killed including the lack of leadership, many influential members had either moved on from the agenda of the cult and had directed many of their mutant men to create communities and have jobs, some had surrendered to the local sheriffs in the end and a trial was held in a newly established post-war country, although most of these men had moved on to create communities, some retained their nomad behavior and continued to roam the post-war wasteland of Zedrutia, expecting things to change under their rule, many factions had been created but some were disintegrated aswell, many of these mutant veterans continued to live through centuries and continued to tell the tale of the former cult.
== Remnants (2155 - 2302) ==
Although many members and soldiers had burned bridges with the cult and had moved on to create communities and jobs, with some retaining their nomad behavior, roaming throughout the wasteland of Zedrutia and forming factions, the structure of The Void continued to exist throughout the wasteland until 2302, the remaining structure of the cult was given the alias as the Remnants, who were the last group of people who still retained their beliefs and sympathy for the now deceased leader, Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki, most of these remnants were persecuted due to their background and continued to operate in one of the last functioning underground bunkers.
Remnants began to form around 2155 after the death of Zdzisław Felicjan Winogrodzki in the hands of his enemy and after the disintegration of the group, many members and influential members continued to swore loyalty to Zdzisław and promised to continue his ways and beliefs in a safer way, many of these remnants moved out north to Yarezovsk and many underground bunkers had opened their doors for the remnants to continue their operations, however there were many setbacks as the remnants did not have an official leader and many groups were isolated or had either posed a isolationist policy. For the remnants of the militia, a few mutants related to the militia disagreed with the ways of moving on and followed many of the remnants, their new purpose was to defend them from any possible threat instead of attempting to raid local communities to gain wealth, mutants and many more, many continued to protect the remnants in the underground vaults.
Eventually, after hundreds of years of the remaining political structure continuing to function, many members remaining within the former cult had surrendered to soldiers patrolling the post-war wasteland of Zedrutia, many of these members were detained and sent to trial in the city of Yarezovsk, after hundreds of years, the last group of members had been finally convicted for their crimes in the past centuries ago, ending the final remaining structure of the group, and finally placing the final nail in the coffin for the group.
== Aftermath ==
In the aftermath of the disintegration of the cult in 2155, many people cheered over the destruction of the cult and the inhabitants of the post-war city of Yarezovsk had been finally able to roam across the wasteland in trading, as for the caravan companies, it gave them opportunity to expand further north without any complications with the mutant armies, in the aftermath a new era began for Yarezovsk and humanity had finally began to walk on its legs again to rebuild society once and for all. As for the cult, many influential members and mutant militias had freedom to break away from the cult and slowly contributed to the disintegration and collapse, most of them moved on while most of them moved on to create fierce factions.
The Void had lasted for 342 years starting from the ideals of Matis Dominykas Jr. to eventually the Yarezovsk Trials in 2302 officially dismantling the remnants of the structure, The Void had carved a deep legacy within world governments and many of the youth culture including the post-war eras. Many mutant veterans of the cult saw it as a reminder not to give too much people power, and continued to live to tell the tales of the cult.
== Legacy ==
The Void movement created by Matis Dominykas Jr. carved a deep legacy and had a major impact on the public opinion, excluding the bad side, the movement had potential to overthrow governments to replace democratic and free ones, and had potential to stop the nuclear Void bomb from being used by world governments as weapons to destroy humanity, many democratic movements had been inspired by the movement and changed world politics forever.
As for the negative side, the movement had reigned terror on cities with events such as the Great Split and the Great Purification, with their actions being violent in the pursue of their own political agenda, with fierce infighting in their movement, in conclusion despite having major support by the people, the movement had many setbacks which would contribute to its further destruction.
== Ideology ==
In the structure of the movement, The Void had many ideologies comprising left-wing and right-wing elements, however their main ideology was called Voidism, an ideology that supports freedom of speech, human rights and the right to free thinking and equality within the human mind, and the destruction of authoritarian governments and the establishment of a world government with the elimination of currency and economic structure including the class divide and the elimination of conflict and total destruction of war.
Voidism is mostly centered in left-wing politics with the same elements from liberal policies and inspiration from other left-wing ideologies, however a different version of Voidism, called the Far-Voidism, is placed within far-right politics, Far-Voidism compared to Voidism has a fierce belief, contributing to the massive infighting within the movement and eventually, the Great Purification.
== Media attention ==
Media attention towards the movement had been neutral or otherwise fierce, however not much is known about the media attention given towards the Void movement or its leaders, members or conspiracy theorists affiliated with the group, however the only media attention mentioning the Void is the New Vilna Radio by Mr. Braun and his broadcasts in 1986, years prior before the Crimsonian-Bistonian War.

== Final Message ==
Hello readers, this is another message from the writer myself, mistyerisa.
After over a few weeks, I have finally finished the Void page and finally I can move on to several other pages currently work in progress and then finally make new pages and finally complete the Mapping Lore, this page really did take a long time to make and it's why we haven't made new pages in over a week, nor have we completed the further details of the lore of the countries.
We had many setbacks unfortunately, but i'm glad I finally completed the page.
