1919,
Peace Conference
Paris ,France(Versailles Treaty)
"Mr. President Wilson, said Raymond Poincaré. "I think it is necessary for Germany to pay for the reparations and for which I highly recommend to put them under military control. These bombasticity can no longer be tolerated. Ever since the Prussian War, German hasn't been fair with us. I remembered being ten years old when that tragedy happend." " pour la protection de l'Europe." He explained. "Mr. President, I understand that you want to punish them as much as I do, but we need to think about the greater future. We cannot have a world with peace if we take this drastic action. I insist for the sake of the world's morality, that we take this action with leniency and rebuild this war torn world we live. You do not have to agree with me, but if you don't want this to be the war to end all wars, be my guess. Lets start this by living a world united by democracy and prosperity for the greater future." Explained President Woodrow Wilson.
Then the Prime Minister Loyd George pointed out : "I honor your morals Mr. President, but my ideas can also be an appeal to Europe's future."
1. Trial of the exiled Kaiser Wilhelm II;
2. Punishment of those guilty of atrocities;
3.Fullest indemnity from Germany;
4. Britain for the British, socially and industrially;
5. Rehabilitation of those broken in the war; and
6. A happier country for all."Prime Minister, I agree that the Kaiser should be triad, but punishing the innocent will not achieve peace, but rather insidiously spark retaliation and sooner or later, we will be called to arms to fight another war for our own mistakes."
The big three created a comprise and the trial of Kaiser Wilhem was successful after the Versailles Treaty was signed on June 1919. The trial took place in the Netherlands and he was charged guilty for his War crimes and exiled from European, while being forcefully guarded on an island across Europe, till he died in 1970. As for the rest of the world, the United States rebuilt the damages of the war and continued to revolutionize their culture and technology. This war, truely ended all wars.............or did it?
Throughout 1920-1980, society began to change. Mainly from a few industrialized nations, into a worldwide spark of innovation.
Ford Model Ts were mass produced and each design was improved and redesigned. Radio became society's new machine along with its home made movie projector screens. Leaders and entertainers around the globe would habitually brodcast their sensation, as it got the attention of a lot of people. Sooner or later, Airplanes and Zepplins became available for continental travel. Zepplins became the new line for cruises and as many as thousands would spend their money going on continential flights.As for the league of nations, they would remain in power for about 65 years. Under their leadership, many wars were prevented and tensions decreased in Europe and as well as other parts of the world; however, that didn't stop certain crime syndicates from influencing the organization. Mobsters often had their political and economic influences among the world leaders. As a result, they were given tremendous power and access to monopolies. Hundreds of Billions were made within these illegal businesses and tons of drugs and narcotics. This got the attention of some local government officials. Some would attempt to release information, but would soon meet their demise. Sooner of later, these monopolies would create a large gap between upper classmen and lower. No one seemed to be fall in the Middle in this new paradime. Though, society didn't remain silent.
In 1985, an organization known as the black syndicate took over the world, spreading fear and chaos. The damage across cities reached billions to trillions of money. The League of Nations were no longer in charge of society. Under their leadership, they established a Worldwide Totalitarian state, with a few conditions. People were free to practice religion, same sex marriage, and own business; though the business had to he approved by the Syndicate. If they didn't approve of your business they would immediately have you executed ,as a liability to society. About 10,000 executions took place each month and everyone of them were former industrialists and Mobsters. Though at some point, they began targeting innocent civilians who were suspected to be against the regime. Though after 20 years of their reign, a man named Jax decided that it was time to fight back.
From 2005-2007, a series of battles took place throughout cities. Each night was full of bombardments and gun fire. Zepplins, Planes, tanks, and armed Riflemen fought against the Syndicate. Jax's Revolutionary group were known as the Victorians. Their outfits were inspired by the victorian era, but with machinery enhancemnts and armory. They often stole flying ships and zepplins from the enemy, weakening the Black Syndicate.
Eventually, Jax and his crew found themselves victorious and the entire world was liberated,Jax took his position as head councilmen of the new League of Nations and vowed to never sacrifice the world's freedom.
Though a decade of peace can only last for so long, before chaos arrives. Within the army, new laws were being passed out to improve combat abilities , requiring every soldier to use mechanical enhancements. If not followed, they would be discharged or even thrown in prison. As a result, the United States succeeded from the League of Nations and set up a blockade to prevent any civilian from entering Europe's boarders. Jax was enraged and decided to arrest anyone affiliated with the US. Though people would soon be displeased with his dishonesty.Jax was later found dead in his office on January 11, 2018. A bullet to the head was enough to end a great man's life. Rumors began to spread that the United States sent a covert assassin after him. From that day forward, the League of Nations declared war on the United States. Nations such as China, Japan, and all of East Asia stayed neutral, while Nations such as the USSR allied with the United States.
The League of Nations were unable to pentrate boarders. Due to major blockages set up by the US and USSR. The first blockade was set up at the Eastcoast of the US with naval ships and Zepplins patrolling 24/7. The 2nd blockade was created at the Border's of Russia and the Balkans. The last boarder was created in the Mediterranean sea, by Greek Naval Ships. Though that didn't stop conflicts to arise. Many wars, ravaged through Europe's Mediterranean Sea and as well as many coastlines. Unfortunately, neither side was able to gain the upper hand. The death toll rose from a few thousands to Millions.
Eventually in 2020 the League of Nations began to recuit covert spies to join the US forces. Their job was to create chaos within the country and weakin our infrastructure. Day by day, hundreds of these covert spies would go city by city, murdering, raping, looting, and kidnapping innocent civilians, inorder to spread panic. The strategy was to distract the US and penetrate the boarders.
One day, something horrible took place. Much closee to home. On the night of March 7,2021, a series of raids took place in my small town,in Pratts, Kansas. My family and I were forced to hide as mercenaries, began to bombard our neighbors. Unfortunately, they found us. My mom told me to run and hide in a closet. I looked around and all I saw was darkness and a small shade of light. Mother,father, brother, and sister were all tied up. I can hear their screams as they begged for mercy. Moments after, they were gone. Slaughtered from the rest of my life. I cried and cried, but remianed silent as these men and woman vacated the house. I felt as if I had died that day and every night would be a new nightmare. I tried to conquer this fear as I grew older. Joining the armed forces and liberating the US. Though I would soon find myself back in the closet, thinking of that night.
