Update Zero, and some new rules.
Update 0: January 2008
As soon as the various areas realized what had happened, they began to deal, double deal and double cross, until at last the modern nations, with the help of President Roosevelt, met in Washington. While the Mongols and South Americans did not attend, a treaty was still signed in New York City:
We, the signatures promise to put aside all conflict, debt and disagreements for the sake of a unified human race, so that we may get through this time.
Signed Julius Caesar (Rome), Queen Cleopatra (Egypt), Boudica (Celtia), Governor Burke (New South Wales), Jefferson Davis (CSA), Robert Borden (Canada), Lord Hardinge (British India), Adolf Hitler (Greater German Reich), Josef Stalin (USSR), Franklin D Roosevelt (USA), Winston S Churchill (Britain), Emperor Hihirho (Japan), Fidel Castro (Cuba) and Kevin Rudd (Australia).
Unfortunately Hitler, in his usual defiance of any signed agreement, invaded Russia anyway, and the rest of the world was powerless to stop it. Cuba was dangerous, but luckily it obeyed the Treaty of New York. New York City was ripped apart by gang wars, and the emergence of superpowers continues to worry the leaders of TimeEarth (as it has become known
)
Three New Rules
A. Everyone must have at least one superpower.
B. No playing as 2008 heads-of-state, as I dont want this to disintegrate into satire.
C. Write stories, THEY ARE YOUR ORDERS! (Think SteamNES)
