Old World

History
Hundreds of years before the story takes place, a nuclear war between two Superpower nations broke out. The nuclear attacks lead to a wide-scale EMP, shutting down and even destroying most of the world’s technology. Not long after, a nuclear winter set in, lasting for 20 years and killing off most of the human population. Even now, decades after the winter has ended, most of the Old World is uninhabitable, covered in dangerous levels of radiation from the nuclear attacks.
