=== NPC VS PLAYERS ZOMBIE APOCOLYPSE===
*"The beginning of something big" - HomelandDuring the golden days of peace and common sense NPC vs Players was a peaceful and genuine server to play on with friends as the days passed DHS formed a Uniformed police division which later became (N.M.P.D) (NPC Metro Police Department) since there was a Roleplay map called RP_southside "to protect and enforce" One day a Police report was made by players that "RANDOM NPC's" were committing acts of cannibalism and attack player's bases, homes, and businesses. at the time (NMPD) was not aware of the new NPC mod updates that would involve ZOMBIE eventsPolice Officer Bradley was on duty that afternoon and as he was patrolling the east side of the car dealership he witnessed the first zombie and engage fired to protect the public until more started to appear that is when the call came through the station and alarms were blasting crazy in the dispatcher room "we knew that it was the start of something big" said Homeland
DAY 1. Riots ensued on NPC vs Players forcing to start FEMA checkpoints and use the PD, Hospital, and parking lots as safe zones. DAY 2. The National Guard was called in to assist and restore law and order within the server.
DAY 3. an unknown hostile force which started the rise of larping clans were attacking safe zones and government officials with an outgoing warzone between the dead and the living
===OPERATION: COBALT===
(FEMA) was leading the operation and has ordered an additional 20 National Guard troops to evacuate NPC vs Players to gain more slots and have a heavier military presence on the server and combat the hostile forces that were deemed a danger to the public safety of its citizens. ALL emergency services were overrun and the remaining (NMPD) responded to the last call which was helping players out of the server leaving NPC vs Players forever changed into this endless larping clan that forms and dies every 10 minutes.
===NEOTEKGAMING TERRORIST ATTACK:===
During the fall of 2018 Neotekgaming was annexed as part of the jurisdiction of DHS for Military Purposes to secure and recruit players as soon as military instillation and a small municipal government was set in place it gains the attraction of local players and staff that were interested in joining our purpose to help protect the servers from harm. the minute passed and seconds away from disaster was about to happen while playing on Gm_Bigcity DHS officials were enjoying an outstanding day talking to local players until an ACF plane struck one of the towers endlessly terrorizing officials and local players and random explosions took place inside of the "(FPS)" Federal Protective Service building killing Federal police officials. after that day it was thought to be the beginning of a new area that would expand DHS's boundaries beyond their imagination for national security.
===DHS welfare law ACT: ===
This law is officially passed in 2018 after the recent impeachment of homeland security to authorize justifiable tactics and power from the federal government in order to protect and defend the communities that fall under DHS jurisdiction.
The new law would give the power to support DHS with necessary resources to utilize under law and order and enact as the main branch of government whatever branch that falls under DHS is to follow orders and obey instructions from their superiors during an act of war or terrorism. There are Articles in place that could limit the use of power in order to prevent overrule or abuse of power when in the position of power or hold office will be responsible for their actions and can be prosecuted under the rule of law.
===The Emperor networks Invasion===
After the DHS Foreign Intelligence Task Force (FITF) Which was the Replica of the IAA at the time conducted a long-term investigation on the 9/11 Terrorist attacks on Gm_Bigcity the analysis by the team had a lead on Emperor networks a suspected group of META members caused a spike of attention upon the agency and its following servers. "Homeland" released a statement that proposed a declaration of war against the Terrorist group responsible for those attacks.
CHAPTER II: The Department of Homeland Security has recruited an army and marine military to occupy Emperor networks for the remaining days to track down and eliminate the Terror group until all members, accomplices, or anyone who was part of this group was found he occupation would continue. The server was given the name "Afghanistan" since the locals were fighting back against the military and had finally become an insurgency problem.
===OPERATION: NIGHTKILLERS===
It was Thanksgiving week and DHS (FIFT) have finally located and tracked down members of the supposed terrorist group a Black Ops UNIT was sent to eliminate the threats and which names and information will be withheld for security purposes. "Homeland was watching the live stream from discord with other members of DHS present and as the raid was in process "Homeland" said he was thankful to all his members and the agency for finally bringing this terror threat to an end at exactly midnight all terror threats offered a ceased fire and an offer was made for them to surrender. finally justice had been made and the terrorist group have pleaded guilty and offered their apologies.
==2019: ==
===The RP Exploration:===
New years was finally here and "Homeland" decided it was time to explore more options outside the META and Sandbox region that would help expand the capabilities DHS can gain or offer to more people, Relocation, service, and entertainment to have some good laughs with members and friends around communities many servers involved Major Police RP servers since there are many who have the police perspective it would make an excellent opportunity to recruit a mass majority of members to join DHS and help expand its borders by having a greater portion of personnel and a structured system to help bind the federal government at a larger scale.
===OPERATION: URGENT FURY===
An RP server called Drive RP was used as a meeting server or the main server for a secured site and is RP based to keep META or sandbox members from breaching the server. A meeting was called to announce a mobilization of the federal police to help assist local law enforcement in battling players whom oppose the government and pose as a liability to insurrect a riot against the evocity
=== The Black Mesa Incident:===
DHS has claimed an RP server due to it being government property to study and utilize WIRE tech and development but also reverse engineer wire tech from others the details will not be released since the purpose of the server is deemed classified. During the new founding sector of DHS, it was finally the time to advance in the tech and research development with WIRE and ACF tech in a secure location that was intended to do so. around one afternoon a server breach was reported by (*FPS*) officials that unauthorized personnel was detained inside the Black mesa facility checkpoints in sector F.
Afterwards an explosion occurred in sector C and forced to evacuate the facility at the time government officials were not permitted to roam around unauthorized areas so the RP server sent in the (HECU) Hazardous environmental combat unit to clear out an unknown hostile force later reported that science team personnel has been compromised within the facility. DHS was advised and sent in a Black Ops unit to help evacuate its own Tech and research teams out of the facility meanwhile the marines has direct orders to detain any personnel still inside the facility.
==2020:==
===THE SHINING SEA:===
DHS progresses throughout the year and with its power being in secrecy and having to be a mutual faction in the sandbox region and a recognized group in the roleplay region almost a vast economy was established and made for all servers under the jurisdiction of DHS and the new founding nation (*USFG*) UNITED STATES FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. "Its quiet in all borders" said "Homeland" it was the peace and enjoyment of finally achieving a community within garry's mod a new generation of the new UNITED SERVER DEFENSE" many servers where under the impression of DHS and its mutual representation of promises for the better half of garry's mod.
One day as homeland was finally resting in happiness and joy on a sandbox server called Apex Networks he received a discord call from strayed the (*AEF*) commader of the armed forces requested for assistance from DHS to the situation room that there has been a heated spark of tensions between nations that started the end of all things.
==WORLD WAR III==
The third world war was the sparkplug that caused a major firehouse in the META and sandbox region it had a massive impact on the economic growth for DHS and its federal reserve system in a way that could effect the status of every faction and server in the sandbox region. When "Homeland" received the discord call from strayed he was asked to fully support (*NATO*) New Aires Treaty Organization with necessary resources from intelligence agencies and tactical training from military officials.
#The (*IAA*) International Affairs Agency was founded by (*FITF*) Foreign Intelligence Task Force as the CIA Agency to spy on the players and gather personal information on all (*Watchlist*) individuals with justifiable cause
#DHS provided (*FPS*) as (*NATO*) Security forces to ensure law and order among NATO-occupied territories
#All DHS personnel will not interfere unless war crimes were committed or any criminal activity was suspected amongst the ranks
===APEX NETWORKS UNDER ATTACK:===
During the war Apex Networks was under the jurisdiction of (*USFG*) "Homeland" at the time and was present on the server in the Federal Police building conducting a training exercise with new recruits and giving them a lecture about the federal system. that afternoon a hostile force has started an attack on the server as later they were identified as (*TEC*) Technology Engineering Coalition their main battle was against (*NFU*) that was part of the (*Petrograd pact*) at the time were battling on Apex networks which prompted an international conflict since both of these faction were on DHS grounds and were instructed to leave or face military action as a promise not a threat (*NATO*) was informed of the situation then escalated into a fallout conflict between factions and WW3 started.
===TEC /DHS BATTLE :===
Many never recorded this part of WW3 Meta war, DHS was part of the battles within (*NATO*) itself (*TEC*) was occupying Apex networks Because NATO forces have failed to provide military assistance against TEC. "Homeland" has made a decision to SUCCED from NATO and be its own infrastructure of god and country to fight off the tyrannical TEC and reclaim apex networks. with all its military and might the (*USFG*) declared war on tyrannical TEC and blasted them off the face of the server forcing them to retaliate and invade DHS territories which prompted a war between Independent "Homeland" and the (*TEC*). as the summer was coming to an end so was the war (*TEC*) was finally dying and the rest of the IA factions that were allied since the first day of the war were also dying forming DHS on its own victory against (*TEC*), therefore, the war was officially over and on the (*NATO*) perspective they were dying as well by winter of 2020 the WW3 would be the last battle that the META would have in the sandbox region retiring AEF and other big-time factions that have been present in the META before DHS was founded.
==2021==
=== The search for survivors:===
The (*USFG*) has declared a national emergency to locate and document all remaining META members that were part of WW3 and has participated in war crimes ALL agencies were gathered to formally mobilize and discreetly scout servers for potential annexation and re-establishment of communication between communities. DHS has then founded a new agency that would later replace the (*FPS*) that is now known as (*NOOSE*) National Office Of Security Enforcement this new agency would replace the FPS and have more powers to engage in META activity and maintain law and order within the sandbox region but also to combat terrorism first hand.
===APEX NETWORKS DEPARTURE:===
The server that has to witness the disasters from the META has officially shut down due to unforeseen circumstances from the owner randomly disappearing and deleting all communication through discord. 'Homeland" proposed to scout a new server that caught his attention and the new server was called "Sanctuary Sandbox", it had No moderation presence, no ACF, but has some META status presence on the server the agency called it "MOONBASE" since there was no life what so ever we annexed it as a training server for "Builder's League United".
===The Great Inactivity:===
2021 became the first year ever to experience a silent depression of the META status in the sandbox region we've decided to take a small break for the fall and focus on the RP region to further entertain ourselves and as friends. as the year was ending we've invested time exploring and making thesis of WIRE tech to another level which will be discussed soon ahead.
==2022 ==
=== NPC vs PLAYERS OPERATION: Manifest===
DHS re-established the (*NMPD*) in order to maintain a municipal presence with the local players themselves to not involve the federal government although the server was reclaimed there was the oppression of clans attacking Police officers and the police station of course the re-establishment was a failure since the server decided to become a post-apocalyptical server involving zombies later on DHS assigned the (*USNG*) United States National Guard to police the server with the deputized guard and have police powers "Homeland" appointed 4 star General: John1945 to be in charge of the (*USNG*) and commander of NPC vs PLAYERS. To this very day, the server is still under DHS jurisdiction.
=== All Quiet In The Sandbox Front: ===
After a certain period of time DHS has maintained focus on its recovery from recession and branch collapse from this year 2022 has been a mind changer since analysis has shown a recent increase and decrease of faction activity in Garry's mod META, Homeland AKA Officer Grimes has long announced its FEMA response team to investigate certain parts of the Sandbox region to sort, collect and catalog any events for status updates. The Department of Homeland Security has still been maintaining a strong presence in secret throughout Garry's mod until this day there has not been an official report.
== The END is NEAR: ==
This is an official statement from the Leadership Committee:
-After years of confrontation and struggle, The Department Of Homeland Security had expanded its resource and manpower towards the Sandbox and Roleplay region we've finally made a conclusive analysis of the survival rate of the sandbox region after recent years the survival rate is over 38% due to the average migration of players and activity of screen hours being added, as new players Join Garry's mod they experience the average time of any server and it increases the activity levels by 44% leaving with a possible 3–4 years of the sandbox region to survive by the year 2028-2029 studies also show an addictive census of players who are very into the game are average players younger than 15 years old since they estimate their time playing a 20-year-old game.
=== The DHS future ===
-Many have views on this Government agency and its assets including working in this system have kept us working together in secret since late 2016. we started small, yet we worked small what matters most is keeping ourselves in control and protecting the territories that grant freedoms with the prosperity we will thrive towards municipal cooperation with servers and the players in them. Many will never understand the reality we seek here in Garry's mod is not LARPing but an opportunity to clean the rubble and put the blocks back together with stronger infrastructure and enforce the principals of a fair game with a great time of adventure and happiness no one is above superiority and or damnation of ideology, on the political scale it does provide a good perspective into this path of expansion on our government anyone who wishes to Join and participate into this new future are at liberty to be part of the greater good and thrive towards the corners of the sandbox and RP servers with marvelous opportunities Join now its never late..... - Officer Grimes AKA Homeland
