## History

### During Apocalypse

During the apocalypse, the states of California, Arizona, Nevada and Utah suffered from not just zombies, but also Super Mutants that were part of Unity, Terminators ravaging the lands and wiping out much of humanity, the Simian Flu has effected the apes of local zoos and started an uprising, some vampires of the Sabbat started going out on a killing spree and gang violence ran rampant. Many parts of California and Nevada got hit hard by a series of earthquakes that reduced much of civilization to rubble. Caesar's Legion, a Roman Empire-esque civilization from Fallout, started their invasion in Arizona. However, they ran into trouble with a giant tarantula from the sci-fi film, Tarantula!, and an army of rampaging spiders from a nature-horror film, Kingdom of the Spiders. Creatures from Tremors started to terrorize the deserts of Nevada such as Graboids, Shriekers and Ass Blasters.

Vegas has its own problems with a war between Randall Flagg from The Stand and Robert House from Fallout with each side trying to gain control. Utah gets surprise visits from robotic animals from the games, Horizon Zero Dawn and Horizon Forbidden West that graze through their state while also suffering from the animatronics from the novel, Five Night's at Freddy's: Silver Eyes. There are even werewolves lurking in the mountains close to the Great Salt Lake and Salt Lake City. Aliens from the Area 51 games; 1995 arcade game, 2005 console game and Blacksite: Area 51; started terrorizing the people of Nevada and turning people into some strange mutants. Same with aliens from Duke Nukem while the rest of the other states have many cowboys, both historical and fictional, raiding across the land along with Native Americans. Bones of dinosaurs started to rise from the earth with SCP-745's attack anyone on the roads.

But all is not lost. Members of the New California Republic from Fallout, the Desert Rangers from Wasteland, the Camarilla from White Wolf's Vampire: The Masquerade, DedSec from Watch Dogs and Big Hero 6 heroes came to save the day along with various other organizations. Even receiving help from an old fictional hero, Zorro, and his various versions. Even members of the Evolved Apes started to join in to help.

### After Phase I

It took time to recover in the passing weeks, but on October 20th of 2020, the California Republic was formed. Al Gore came into office with many voted him in. Khan, a former member of a splinter group of Caesar's ape colony, became a prominent member that represents the apes and various other races in the California Republic as vice president. Same with an elf, Amberle Elessedil from the Shannara Chronicles, as national justice. They even made peace with Robert House and let him control New Vegas as an economic zone that is independent from the nation.

With the deal with Robert House, the California Republic started to use Garden of Eden Creation Kits (G.E.C.K.'s) to make many desert areas fertile after removing many Graboids and their evolved forms. They used them to terraformed much of the land while making many water ways in order to make it habitable and to provide food for the populace. Yet some areas remain deserts to turn into solar power plants to provide electricity. Although some areas have been declared national by the new government to preserve the environment.

The new government focuses on social and racial equality for all species that reside in its borders, ecological reforms to safeguard the environment and reduce pollution along with climate change caused by it, social welfare and more. Although there are still some zombies that terrorize the land and members of the Super Mutant's Unity still try to claim the land even with their Master destroyed. People are also finding more Vaults from Fallout as they survey the land for any other projects.

Not long after, they attracted the attention of the newly reformed United States known as, The United Nation States of America. Joe Biden promises autonomy for all the other nations yet combined in order to become a greater nation. Al Gore and Khan, along with the rest of their congress, had a meeting about this to discuss on how to move forward. Some debated that joining would cause problems, but not joining means they might end-up going to war with the others for dominance. And so, they agreed.

They try to negotiate on with the Republic of Pacifica on regaining some of the state of California back, but only got some of it despite it being desolate.

### Phase II

When the galaxy got bigger and the real universe became more crowded, a consecutive order was given to have all micronations to be deported to other worlds. The micronations refused to go, but had little choice to do so.

## Society

The California Republic is a progressive nation state in terms of social, technological and ecological. It also treats many of its inhabitants as equals while prohibits persecution and discrimination on the basis of gender, ethnicity, race, sexuality or religious belief (so long as said religion does not advocate violence or sentient blood sacrifices). It is willing to accept any and all species within the nation. Thanks to this, the California Republic became one of the most popular nation states in the UNSA.

However, there are laws that limit production and industry to ensure the safety of the environment and to reduce global warming. People are also following laws that are similar to that of Singapore to prevent any more pollution, no matter how small. They also enforce a tax for anyone that litter or companies that increase carbon-based gases. The higher the pollution, the more taxes they have to pay. They also follow many social reforms that were inspired by the Democratic Party alongside Green Party ideologies as well. This includes environmental protection, corporate governance reforms, better welfare for the labor forces, free healthcare and education, and many more such ideologies.

It is also home to the technologically gifted and magically powerful. The San Fransokyo Institute of Technology (SFIT) maybe new, but it is home to the best and brightest where new inventions and ideas are being made. The San Fransokyo Art Institution (SFAI) is home to many artists with great inspirations and express their talents. The San Fransokyo University of Magic (SFUM) is the newest out of all the fictional schools that came into being. As it states, it is a university that studies the limitations and various forms of magic that came into existence. But schools such as the University of Utah, University of Phoenix, University of Nevada and the New Vegas Research Institute studies both magic and technology.

### New Vegas

The Free Economic Zone of New Vegas, or just simply New Vegas, is completely different. It is liberal but it focus more on tourism and gambling with all sorts of vice that the body would love. As an independent city-state, along with some of its surroundings, are free from any taxation or enforcements of the California Republic. Same with laws. Robert House manage a fine city where many adults can come and play while obeying completely different laws that are enforced by the Securitron robots.

New Vegas has one of the largest trade ports in the UNSA as well as a popular tourist attraction for many with spaceports located not too far from the Vegas Strip. Many come over to enjoy the sights, the casinos, the attractions and a few performances.

## Government

The government of the California Republic is headed by the subsidiary president who has a strong authority over the government alongside the California Congress. But as a member of the UNSA, it does have to follow the president along with the cabinet. It is a federal and constitutional republic that values the rights of all living under it. The Republic Cabinet is comprised of representatives from the four states and there are four representatives in each state.

The federal government is relatively limited, with most authority resting with the state and especially local administration.

## Economy

While the Free Economic Zone of New Vegas is independent, there are other forms of economics and businesses for the California Republic to do in the free market. Much of their electricity and power comes from renewable energy as they plan to have zero emissions coming from the factories and other industries. They supply many consumer goods that are manufactured in the country or traded from Asian countries from the United Asia-Pacific Federation and the Australinea Commonwealth. They even manufacture automobiles that have bio-reactors or use plankton as a fuel source with the only by-products being water and oxygen.

Agriculture is also a major resource in the California Republic with much of their deserts transformed into fertile farmlands and new waterways to help provide. Corn and maize are used as the primary source of grain in many parts of the country. Other foods include apples, aloe, potatoes, carrots, pears, coffee and berries. They also supply some desert foods such as banana yucca, prickly pear, Nevada agave, ginseng, pinyon, barrel cactus fruit, buffalo gourd, honey mosquete and Mojave yucca. Other than normal foodstuffs, they do have some fictional ones such as super corn, xander roots, sidi gourd, lamta, and driss. Livestock involve mutated Bighorners and Dewbacks.

As a green government, they also focus on many renewable energies ranging from solar, hydroelectric, wind and geothermal. They also made special power plants that can turn garbage into hydrogen particles that recharge the plasma burner and transport energy to the grid. They also make advances in technology and magic to keep the environment clean and ensure a prosperous future.

## Military

The military is comprised of various factions that helped rebuild much of the California Republic. That includes the Desert Rangers from Wasteland, the army of the New California Republic, Jacobstown Super Mutants, vampires from the Camarilla, Khan's splinter group, SCP Mobile Task Forces and many more. Even members of Caesar's Legion ended-up joining the California Republic after their humiliating defeat by spiders. These veterans train the next volunteers to ensure the safety and stability within the republic. SCP works with the California Republic to contain any form of paranormal threats alongside the Californian Magic Department.

As stated, the Californian Magic Department studies all forms of magic thanks to the Elves and Gnomes from the Shannara Chronicles and the vampire clans from White Wolf. They study magic and use their magical abilities to fight against any other magical forces. That also includes demons from the Shannara Chronicles that came from a desert wasteland between Arizona and Nevada. DedSec found a way to have the Terminators serve in the military and override any previous programming they had.

Jaegers from Pacific Rim are also deployed to prevent kaiju monsters from entering onto their shores.
