FORWARD
In 2022, Russia, for no justifiable or coherent reason, invaded Ukraine waging total war on what had been a peaceful very European small country of 40 million. The Ukrainian people fought tenaciously surprising the massive Russian forces. The EU and the US began supplying weapons and training. Russia was losing, both the war and international support.
The Russian leader, in desperation, and as he had threatened, finally resorted to using a tactical nuke. In response, NATO aircraft flew into the Ukraine shooting down every Russian helicopter and aircraft they found as well as bombing the living hell out of Russian forces. Russia immediately declared war against the NATO countries and the United States, that same day, declared war against Russia.
Meanwhile, Elon Musk, the CEO at SpaceX, had built a large interplanetary ship and was readying it for a voyage to a distant planet with 450 young volunteers from the US and UK. They knew this to be a one way trip and had signed up anyway. A few days before Russia deployed the tactical nuclear weapon the great ship lifted off perfectly and was on its way for what was to be a 5-year trip.
Two days later, Russia unleashed a thousand MIRV'ed ICBMs at the US and another thousand flew into all the European cities. Immediately and before any reached their targets, 5000 heavy nukes were unleashed toward Russia such that, within an hour of the war starting, it was all over! China and NOKO as well as Iran had also decided to attack America such that another 1000 weapons impacted every city, town and village all across what had been the United States.
Many thousands of missiles flew into China, Iran and NOKO completely destroying all civilization and incinerating several billion humans. Within a day, nothing was left anywhere. That was in October of 2023.
Our story begins 800 years later...
