History
In 1990, 10 IBM-brand electronic servers, along with an IBM 2260 Video display unit, were purchased by Aspen University and moved to the West Hall and first began use as a computer system with the sole purpose of use by technicians and professors at the university. After a 1992 coding competition consisting of 50 students across the campus, 22-year-old Eric Seagle had coded the first prototype of E-Cyclopedia after a collaborative project between three friends.

Now, what the [EXPLETIVE CENSORED ACCORDING TO E-CYCLOPEDIA GUIDELINES] is Ursa Major?

Ursa Major is a Conworlding and semi-alternate-history-ish worldbuilding project that tells the tale of a universe where a final war has destroyed the planet, and all that remains struggles to rebuild and rise from the ashes.

Ursa Major takes inspiration from the massive worldbuilding projects you've seen on websites such as ConWorlds, Althistory, or even the ones so big they have their own websites. It also takes inspiration from the Hearts of Iron 4 mod, The New Order: Last Days of Europe. While that may seem random, as WWII and WWIII are on opposite ends of the war spectrum, we aim for the same type of worldbuilding to fully flesh out this timeline.

It's October 25, 1962. The Cuban Missile Crisis is at its height, and you're an Air Force guard stuck guarding Duluth Sector Direction Center, a military installation in St. Louis County, Minnesota, or as you call it, the middle of [CENSORED]ing nowhere. Brandishing your rifle, you stare out into the woods, before a shadowy figure hopping the fence catches your eye. Scared that it's a soviet spy, you unleash at least 81 pounds of lead attempting to hit the thing. A sabotage alarm sounds in the sector, and the surrounding bases, the moment shots are fired. As the thing skitters away, you feel slightly stupid, realizing it was only a bear.
Unbeknownst to you, you became the sole cause for World War III, as multiple multiple nuclear-armed interceptor aircraft being launched at the nearby Volks Air Field. In a timeline where you were luckier, a car speeded down the tarmac of the Air Field, signaling the planes to stop, as no war had actually begun. However, in this world, nobody dared to stop these planes, fearing war had truly begun. Now, these planes, during a time of crisis, would begin shooting at friendly B-52s and SAC B-47s, along with preparing nuclear weapons to drop on the USSR. Entering Warsaw Pact airspace, these planes would be shot down by anti-aircraft guns, starting an actual war. Congratulations, you barmy 1-eyed cabbage-humper.
