"They say a man plants a garden because he believes he has a future. Is that why we do what we do? Because we believe we have a future? And if we don't have that, then how do we justify what we've become?" - Alexey.



30 years after a great war ended in mutually assured destruction the remnants of humanity still struggle desperately to survive. Their own worst enemy? Themselves.

This is the story of a survivor who struggles with the mental anguish of his past, morality and what it means to be human in a world only fit for monsters. In the frozen bones of Post-war Russia, there are no heroes and no villains, only those who are dead, and those who are not.

Darkness of Ours (RusAme) by Amaura1406

The year is two- thousand, twenty-seven. The USA has collapsed. America is dead. The Cabinet of States has arisen from its ashes. Their very own Countryhuman, Cabi, in charge. Unbeknownst to the new government, a plot has been brewing in the shadows. A plot that is determined to wipe them off the face of the earth. It is something so dangerous, so ludicrous, that only a madman would consider going through with it. But that was exactly what he was; a madman. Russia, driven to grief over America's loss, makes a plan to bring him back. However, Cabi has her own plan that she is willing to enact. One that could rid the competition. One that could secure her place as leader. One that she is so ambitious, so desperate to uphold, that it may drive the world to its breaking point. Violence is coming. Terror is culminating. But hope is reviving. •-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-• Welcome to Darkness of Ours. This is a continuation from a previous book called Light of Mine. I highly recommend that you read Light of Mine before starting this, but if you find that too long, too cringy, or too much of something else, there is an informational chapter at the beginning of this book.

FALLOUT: Sievert - Volume 1: The Forsaken by LynneJJW

Fallout is based on what people in 1998 would think people in 1950 would imagine the world would be like in the 2070s, then nuked. Fallout is more about the people and communities that try to move forward after a nuclear devestation, those who thrive, and then those who are drifting off, and those who have hit such a bottom that they have no further to fall. Many communities will rise from the nuclear ash for most to fail. In this world, there are no good guys; there are no bad guys. Everyone is just trying to get by and survive. The story takes a first-person point of view from a character who is pushed out of her home and into an unknown world. This world is mostly under control by two main factions at war though; one being the self-proclaimed United States and the other being the self-proclaimed owners of the counter, the Enclave. This story has many ups and downs and level offs. It has frustrations, situations, shows emotion, and thinking of the main character. It will read dynamically in its speed and depth in specific details as this girl looks for a new home in the post-nuclear wasteland in the year of 2300.

Death Stranding Season 1 by peouep

The year is 2050, and the world is a shadow of what it once was. On December 31st, 2049, a massive asteroid struck Earth, unleashing devastation on an unimaginable scale. The collision engulfed the planet in flames, erasing entire cities and wiping out 80% of all living beings. Once-vibrant landscapes have turned to barren wastelands, and the remnants of humanity are scattered and struggling to survive in the aftermath of the cataclysm. What remains is a harsh and unforgiving world where survival comes at a cost, and trust is a luxury few can afford. The story follows 11 Smith, a man who awakens on January 9th, 2050, in the center of a massive crater-the impact site of the asteroid. Disoriented and alone, he discovers that the Earth is now a desolate wasteland, filled with dangers both seen and unseen. As he begins his journey, 11 encounters allies like 24, 42, 22, and 12, each with their own burdens to bear. Together, they uncover the truth about the asteroid and its far-reaching consequences. But lurking in the shadows is 3, a powerful and enigmatic adversary determined to control what's left of humanity. Joined by the ruthless 41 and 48, 3 will stop at nothing to achieve dominance in this shattered new world. *NOTE* Everyone is mortal in "Death Stranding." Meaning anyone can die.

TROIKA - Countryhumans USSR x America by Arrin99423

The world is electrified. Everything runs on electricity, from lighting to transport, life support to social media. Oblivion. Then, grid is down. And the world turns dark. And doesn't turn back on. America, the most forward thinking and innovative Western idealist, has answers. Her feminist values push her neck to neck with her male peers. She is one of the first to figure out that the grid will eventually fail, because of the vein of fossil fuel instability, trying to raise the alarm. When the grid does fail, she doesn't even get the satisfaction to say 'I told you so' before she is forced to collaborate in the TROIKA - a trio of biologist, engineer, and geophysicist that must find an immediate and then long-term solution to power the earth. Oh, and she has no choice. USSR, a cynic planner and injured war veteran, has questions. Torn between his eastern roots and western intelligence, he struggles to fit in, curb his aggression, and deal with personal loss. Instead of notifying the world of the impending grid failure, he builds a vast arsenal nuclear plants to power his land against the rules, and when the grid falls, his lights and machines keep running. When finally his arrest occurs, he finds himself in a unique situation, offered a position in the TROIKA - but if he declines, then a life of darkness behind bars awaits him. The goal of the TROIKA is simple: Be quick, be correct, be ready. It doesn't take long for USSR and America to loathe each other on principle, each with their own goals and ideals, clashing on everything from fashion to economics. Can they push away their pride and save the world, maybe even themselves? Or will their bitterness engulf everyone in thick, oily darkness forever? A single choice will ultimately decide their fate. TROIKA: The Future is Nuclear. The Future is Unclear. NOT for sensitive readers, please do not read if you cannot handle violence, loss, terminate disease or mature content - 16+ Thanks!

Stuck With The Enemy by TheOldJazz

With the rising concern of nuclear weapons countries and organisations are trying to settle on a safe agreement. Unfortunately, not every country is cooperative and after a purposefully caused accident, four countries find themselves stuck in quite the predicament. !!Book Warnings!!: •Countryhumans •Quite A Lot Of Bad/Inappropriate Language (aka swears) •Possible Offensive Content !!!!!!! This book is fiction and made for entertainment purposes only. It is not entirely historically accurate. !!!!!!! !! If you're a reader/seeing this on another site that's not Wattpad, then my book most likely got copied and pasted onto an unsafe fanfiction app page. !! Cover was made by me, I might update it (probably not because my art skills suck). Started/Published: 06/11/2020 Ended: 11/1/2021

Wings | Fleeting Feathers Book 0 by ThatOneBookWorm619

+ Co-written with Meteoritezr + First rule of living with the Flock? No names. Nothing real anyway. You don't survive with your humanity, you shed it, or it sheds you. Zombies were said to be impossible, that they'd never happen, well obviously whoever said that had underestimated human curiosity. It started with the melting of the Poles, which uncovered diseases that hadn't been seen in millennia. Obviously, when a flesh-eating parasitical virus was found, scientists in all their glory decided to study it, which led to the greatest calamity in human history. Warning: This is the original book 1, it is now considered more of a prelude/building character relationships arc than a book. This provides backstory and sets the foundation for the characters and their relationships. The action starts in the new book 1 - Migration. - TW: Gore, Cursing, Death, etc. Not recommended for anyone who can't stomach gore or other zombie stuff or LGBTQ+. Homophobia will not be tolerated in any way, shape, or form -

Words to Live By - A Countryhumans SovAme Story by SendInTheGuns

SLOW UPDATES America is a living country, a personification of what she fought so hard to free. The Soviet Union was something similar. Everybody knows about the political battle between these two powerful women, and how they nearly destroyed the planet in their strife. Everybody knows of the way they hated each other, all while fearing the other as well. But it was not always this way. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Edit: Redrew the cover art, now with watercolors. Art is mine. If you see this story anywhere that isn't Wattpad, it is stolen. This story contains mentions of the Soviet Union, as well as Nazi Germany. Please proceed with caution if these things upset you.
