The Gamer Resistance

The Gamer Resistance is a faction of militants located in and around Old Chicago, Illinois. The faction is the succession to the short-lived United Socialist Gamer Republic that rose to prominence during the First Furry War. After that tragedy of Retard Hill and the death of many thousands of Gamers, including such legends as Dawko, Tommyinnit, and Dream, the Gamers escaped further west, and began the construction of 3 massive underground cities: New Chicago (located under old-day Chicago) the New Pacific Arcology (an underwater dome hidden off the coast of Oregon) and the San Antonio Bunker Network (a collection of military bunkers and old laboratories running deep under San Antonio) Unfortunately, only one of these cities survived the USF/Furry Empire's rise to power, with the Arcology being nuked with a single massive depth charge-like warhead called the Pacific's Fall. The San Antonio Bunker Network was destroyed by civil unrest in Gamer ranks, with the almost 30,000 Gamers underground eventually killing each other out of paranoia and fear. Whether there are still survivors down there is unknown, as the Network hasn't been opened in almost 29 years.

However, New Chicago remained the strongest and retained the most populous at 400,000 Gamers occupying the underground city. Over time that number has grown to almost 600,000, with plenty of space left in the almost twenty-mile by twenty-mile underground city-fortress. It remains one of the largest underground structures on the planet, rivaled only by the legendary Aperture Laboratories, which has still to this day not been discovered.

Over 30 years, the Gamer Resistance grew, producing offspring over the years and teaching them the way of the warrior. However, some chose not to take this path, either expanding the city or producing the weapons needed to one day fight back. And finally, on April 16th, 2021, they did fight back, winning the Battle of Old Chicago and setting in motion a new global age.

## Government

The Gamer Resistance's government is primarily a council, with a now-aged Token Fat Kid acting as Chief, and presiding as Speaker of the Council over 4 other members representing Nintendo, Xbox, Playstation, and PC gamers. Some Gamers are currently pressing for a VR representative in the council, due to how much VR is used for combat training with simulations like Superhot VR. In addition, there has been some mostly-joking talk among veterans as to the election of someone to represent the KFC Console. However, younger soldiers who never tasted KFC, an Old World relic, are confused by this.

## Military

The Gamer's military is divided into several main "sub-classes" as well as other smaller organizations like the New Youtuber Brigade and the Minecraft Engineering Corps. However, the main rank and class composition can be found below:

## New Chicago society

New Chicago's society is vast and distinct, with Gamers from all ethnicities and all walks of life. The city itself is divided into 3 levels. The first, the Aviation Level, at half a mile houses the Gamer Airship Fleet of 7 airships, as well as the VTOL craft, fighter jets, and dropships run by Gamer pilots. These ships can leave via a massive vault door built into the ground and hidden by dust and dirt, which can slide open both ways and allow the now-tested craft to leave. The second level, the City District, is the most expansive at 2 miles underground, and houses the city of Old Chicago itself, as well as the Council and the neighboring Military District, which houses active soldiers. The lowest level, the Engineering District, was built low to mask noise at 4.2 miles underground, and is the location of all manufacturing foundries and resource mines.

New Chicago Gamer Society was originally more segregated, with Gamer Girls and Gamer Boys living in separate locations to prevent an overflow in "new population" from rising, but this was changed after 5 years in isolation with Executive Order 69. Now all ethnicities and genders live together in the city.
