WESTENBURG MISSING, AI SUSPICION
Disappearances; US and Russia Pull Out of UN Summit
Digital Publication
August 3, 2041: Gregory Westenburg, CEO of Palladium United Energy Resources Inc., was declared missing last night just two months after securing a lucrative merger between itself and Navitas Power Production. The two companies, worth over $137 and $114 billion respectively, are two of three powerful energy giants funded by the United States government. Throughout the past two decades, Palladium and its umbrella of energy production counterparts have been responsible for supplying power to just over half of cities nationwide.

RUSSIA RELEASES ELECTROMAGNETIC PULSE OVER NORTH AMERICA
Devices Rendered Useless, Mass Disarray
Print Publication (typewritten)
December 9, 2042: Russia detonated a nuclear weapon above North America on December 7, 2042, propelling into the atmosphere directly over the United States. This attack, in which the detonation of such a powerful nuclear weapon sends electromagnetic waves over regions within range of the bomb, is called an electromagnetic pulse, or EMP. EMP waves have a debilitating effect on many different electronic devices, oftentimes completely disabling important technologies such as cars, railways, and power grids. This has left the majority of the US in a state of chaos.

ALLIES RETALIATE WITH THE RELEASE OF ANOTHER EMP
The Russian EMP’s Impact on the Kansas Countryside
Print Publication (typewritten)
December 16, 2042: Two days ago, Russia officially delivered the first deliberate act of war against the United States, detonating a nuclear bomb in the atmosphere over North America and causing a powerful electromagnetic pulse (EMP) to emanate over a landmass estimated to be equal in size to roughly half of the United States. An EMP attack occurs when a nuclear weapon is detonated in or around the atmosphere, causing a broad release of waves which interfere with, and consequently disable, the functioning of most electronic devices and other technology. At the present time, all electricity and electronic devices in and surrounding the United States are non-functioning/useless at this moment in time. Though a somewhat stable condition of safety has been established, Washington, D.C. remains in disarray as strict security measures have been put into place to ensure the safety of President MacKay and other government officials.

FINAL WORDS OF FREEDOM
Is There Hope for Humans in an Age of Humanoids?
Print Publication (typewritten)
March 9, 2048: In December 2042, the Russian government released a powerful electromagnetic pulse over the United States in a direct effort to target our country and freedom. Now, over 5 years later, the effects of the incident are reaching their highest peak. AI humanoids have been the world’s overall dominating force ever since they got hold of their power in the United States government during the 2044 elections. Their dominance in other areas around the globe, including the European Union and its neighboring countries, is predicted to occur in the imminent future. After having gained enough power, these AI officials have rewritten policies and changed laws to allow for their continued domination. One recent major change (as of today) includes the purchase and regulation of several news organizations around the US, including the Transparent Daily News (set to be rebranded as the Tron Daily News this coming year).

A DECADE OF AI: THE DAWN OF A NEW AGE
A Decree of Sensational Reform
Digital AI Publication
As of now, March 16, 2052, peace has been established. AIs have ensured that all parties involved have signed into law a treaty that protects each country from further threats. All AIs, which we now refer to as our Masters, have designated new homes and communities for all dividuals everywhere. For instance, in the United States, dividuals have been gifted the land of what once was the East Coast and continues on until the Mississippi River; the land is further divided into North and South between children and adults due to new educational standards. We all live together, in unity, with one Master per province who provides for our every need.
