The **Alexandria Safe-Zone**, or simply **Alexandria**, is a walled-off community located in Alexandria, Virginia, near Washington, D.C..

## Background Information

### Pre-Apocalypse

The Alexandria-Safe Zone was established in a neighborhood outside of Alexandria, Virginia, near Washington, D.C.. The neighborhood was a planned upscale community with its own solar grid, cisterns and eco-based sewage filtration with pricing starting at the $800,000 to $1,400,000 range. It was designed for sustainability.

## Post-Apocalypse

The upscale planned community was a safe-zone established by the military in the early days of the outbreak, containing a handful of supplies for a large group of people. Ohio Congresswoman Deanna Monroe and her family were attempting to evacuate D.C. and return to Ohio to help handle the crisis in her state. While doing so, they were directed by the military to the neighborhood, among other survivors from D.C., and ordered to wait for their return, which never occurred.

The evacuees used the supplies for their survival, including construction materials from a shopping mall nearby, which were used to build the wall. New survivors joined the community shortly thereafter. Deanna soon became their leader and saw promise and the rebirth of civilization in Alexandria. She believed who people were before the apocalypse mattered in rebuilding and sustaining the community. Reg Monroe, her husband, was a professor of architecture and took charge of building the walls. Her son, Aiden, was in ROTC and was made supply runner while her other son, Spencer, used the church tower as a sniper's post. She put Aaron and his boyfriend Eric Raleigh in charge of going outside to recruit more survivors due to their experience of working together for an NGO in Africa.

Over time, Aaron and Eric recruited enough survivors to establish a thriving community. However, they recruited a man named Davidson who was the leader of a small group. Davidson and his group did not agree with Deanna and could not work in the safe-zone. Deanna had them exiled and driven out by Aaron, Aiden, and Nicholas, another member of the community. Because of what occurred with recruiting a group of survivors, Deanna suspended the recruiting program from taking in larger groups and instead focused on lone survivors. As time went on, Deanna saw that her citizens were not prepared for the outside world and that being inside the walls since the beginning of the outbreak made them weak and inexperienced in surviving. Knowing that this made them vulnerable to the undead and to hostile survivors that wanted to attack the Safe-Zone, Deanna allowed Aaron and Eric to resume recruiting larger groups.

## Should I Fear? Should I Fearless?

### Recruiting Jaxx

Recruiters, Aaron and Eric were out scouting for people to bring back and they ran into Jaxx Stanley in Richmond, Virginia. They talked him into coming back with them, where he was assigned to be the entertainer for community events and found his true love, Sam Anderson. Jaxx was assigned to live with Aaron and Eric and the three have become really great friends. A welcoming party was thrown for Jaxx at the Monroe house where he performed two songs. Jaxx had went on a walk outside the walls of the safe-zone and found a horse from his uncle Hershel's farm. Jaxx brought the horse back and plans for constructing a barn are currently being made. Jaxx has made several other friends, those being: Olivia; the inventory manager of the community, Denise Cloyd; a local Alexandrian with medical skills, Jessie Anderson; Sam's mother, Ron Anderson; Sam's brother, and Deanna Monroe; the leader. Jaxx also became enemies with the community's bullies, but after talking out their differences, Jaxx now has allies in the four boys: Colin, Nathan, Vic and Kyle, fortunately before Kyle's death. Upon her death, Deanna told Rick Grimes and Jaxx that she expected them to lead the community together; that Rick better teach Jaxx how to lead and mold his potential or she would come back and haunt him. Jaxx also married Sam a few days after the walker horde breached the community.

## The Wall

The safe-zone walls are made out of mostly corrugated iron sheets, supported by steel tubing, which act as braces supporting the structure. The structure was erected by Reg Monroe and his sons using various materials gathered from the surrounding area, notably a shopping mall construction as noted by Deanna. Other residents also helped them.

Reg Monroe was the person behind the engineering of the wall, designing it to be strong enough to withstand the walkers.
