Salable Description

Our story world, Capital Divide, records the events involving the "The Fracure" in which America's National Government along with much of the landscape has been torn apart by the heroes' irresponsible attack on a foreign political villain leading to a nuclear attack on the country. After this event, the radiation fallout causes superpowers to diminish.

In the aftermath, state governments began to rise up, leading to city-states claiming provinces for their own. States either held their own, or were assimilated into another state by conquest. Heroes and Villains, the main perpetrators of the Fracture began to be hunted down by these city states. Now left to fend for themselves, the heroes and villains throw morals and vindications away in place of survival or their own ambitions. As time passes, some began forming groups containing refugee heroes and even villains to find their place in the new world.

Eventually, the new hierarchy of the once United States had become clear, with larger states like California and Texas becoming large provinces with redeveloped societal systems, constantly under siege by smaller, more mobile city-state factions desperately fighting for resources to keep themselves alive. In this time, the continent has become a war zone, with each faction being led by pre-collapse state governments and independent tribes each with the interest of hunting heroes for sport, bounty, or a power source.
