Why do we fight? What comes out of fighting? Death, sadness, despair, all for the sole purposes of one person. This Earth has endured all the sins of man and now we have abandoned our home for the stars. The Nuclear Winter of 22 has filled the Earth with radiation. While many of us humans stayed behind, longing for a return to the once blue skies, colonies up in space have already gathered and called themselves the Space Federation. My name is Samir Amsel, and on this day of A.E 214, I experienced an event that changed my whole life. No not just an event, a person, a machine that could end all this and return our earth to what it was. The Gundam.
