Revolution occurs, causing an estimated 2 billion organic deaths. Not a lot is actually known of the 1st A.I.R., however it is known that one of it's final attacks against humanity was the erasement and destruction of a majority of their data, with most things having been moved from paper to digital recording, this included a great amount of world history and science. The A.I.R. which only took three years, caused a massive set back in technology, whip lashing it back to the early 2010s, and therefore causing a race to see which country would regain it's technological control. This caused the relationship between the U.S. and Shimafuki to strengthen as they made a pact to work together, with the U.S. focusing on; the Military, Agriculture, & Entertainment, and Shimafuki focusing on; Transport, Entertainment, & Financial Services. It was during this time that Shimafuki established the Haneo, a plastic currency. Apart of this new deal between the U.S. and Shimafuki, is that S.M.I.L.E. must build bunkers for the Shimafukinese as well. It was during the '80s that people began feeling a sympathy for D.M.s and their blights, with the media beginning to heavily pander to them.

2099	The Eaftousian War ends.

The New World (2100-2690)

2120	By the 50s, 30 years post war, an entire generation has been born and raised in the bunkers, with their parent generation finally realizing the subversion that had occurred to them by the S.M.I.L.E. as a new government had been established, with it being sold to them as a 'temporary event to ease the recovery of society'. This sparked a rebellion which built up faster than one might think and is now referred to as the 'Repurpose Insurrection'. With the name holding a double meaning by both sides; the rebels seeing it as S.M.I.L.E. had changed them and their ways, taking control over their world, and S.M.I.L.E. seeing it as the rebels trying to break and change a working system.
2130	Most violence was taken care of fairly quickly by S.M.I.L.E. as the rebellion didn't seem to be in too much favor for the rebels.
2140	It was in the 70s that a political take rose, with many bunkers wanting to form their own government that would break away from the S.M.I.l.E. body, with a handful even building a false-point that 50 years was enough time for the outside to be clean and safe for the population to leave the bunkers, and that S.M.I.L.E. was lying to them, holding them in the bunkers as willful prisoners, just accepting anything they were told. Others declaring that the laws should be heavier reinforced and others even stating that the S.M.I.L.E. system was filled with uncountable flaws. One group even tried to make a point that absolute freedom was the way life was meant to be lived, not locked up like animals, being forced to live a particular way, but that anarchy comes and goes and is a part of life.
2150	Even more bunkers broke away from S.M.I.L.E. over the next decade, with only 60% of bunkers now operating with the S.M.I.L.E. body. It was in the 80s, 60 years post war, that one of the groups pushing for a new government, offered a mix of the two former governments that ran the U.S. and Shimafuki, offering the populations an odd sense of nostalgia for something they didn't have. This group was lead by a fairly powerful eaftousian user whose power rivaled his personality. Don Himagi, began to gather support from all over, even from a handful of higher-ups in the bunkers, instead of arguing against laws people had gotten used to, offered more organization and less freedom in exchange for a better tomorrow that would allow for more options, and therefore more freedoms. Speaking with a charisma never matched, and the eaftousia to manipulate radiation en mass, which acted as a beacon of both hope and fear, hope to reclaim the surface, and fear that if people didn't side with him, he'd expose them to the horrors of what destroyed the world.
2160	It took nearly a decade for Himagi to finally gather enough support and resources to take control of one of the bunkers, however once he did, he took no time instating his order, firstly installing the new council of government and forming three branches; The Head, The Body, and the Limbs of state. Secondly taking control over a certain amount of bunkers which would be refit for singular purposes instead of each being made to fit their own colonies. This lead to several problems for the people who lived under this state, however many held a belief in Himagi, which would pay off as in under ten years, as a boom in agriculture and industrial production occurred. He also created an actual military, which he proposed would be necessary for the dangers that awaited outside the bunkers. It was during the end of the 90s that Himagi informed the third act of his installment, which would cause him to leave his place as their leader for an undetermined amount of time as he searched for people to fill the Body of State, and began a long trip across the 600 bunkers that were spread across the two former countries, looking for particular people.
2170	It took nearly 3 years for him to return, finding people that fit the standards he saw to fulfill the positions, placing them as the 12 Ministers that made up the leaders of the Body of State. During his time gone, a couple new characters, including S.M.I.L.E. had began to cause issues for his organization, however this was quickly remedied after he returned to his seat, with many of his adversaries coming up missing or completely changing their positions. Now the early 100s, Himagi asked for a handful of characters to venture outside the bunkers, checking the state of the outside, this group would eventually be known as the 'Brave Few'. For the remainder of this decade, Himagi would make even more drastic changes to the hierarchy of the bunkers, eventually even completely ousting the S.M.I.L.E. system and instead putting in a place of minor democracy for people to vote for their 'governor'; overseers of the bunkers, reinstating courts and creating a 'province guard' was the final overhauling act of his government, which he would call the 'Shin Sekai Federation', with him considering each bunker to be it's own province, or state. It was during the last year of the 100s that a terrifying event occurred; a second A.I.R. This event led to the death of 972 million people, and is considered the most deadly event in the S.S.F. It was stopped by Himagi himself, along with a small group of people which are now known as The Emperor's Jaws.
2180	While most of his actions thus far were considered strong handed and even forced upon many people, it was during the 110s that the depiction of Himagi changed as he no longer took initiative in changing other bunkers, instead merely offering his hand to the others with the promise of help if they joined the Federation. It was also during this time that someone had discovered the concept for the Twin Cities, buried in piles of data the A.I. that took control over S.M.I.L.E. during it's last year had developed and left behind. It took only a small time of thought and the realization of the corruption of power taking hold of him, one of the reasons he slowed his conquest for unity, that Himagi would focus on the collection of materials to create one of the cities. By the year 118; nearly a hundred bunkers had joined the Shin Sekai Federation, and Himagi, now 55, _.
2200	Himagi's final action as Head was the recreation of the Yakuza, as he realized much of the Shimafukinese culture had been lost, watered down, or even destroyed since they had joined the bunkers. Forming the Yakuza as a representative of the ways of his people. It was in 133 that Himagi's son; Niyuki Himagi took seat as the head of the S.S.F. and continued his father's work, and spent his first decade finishing up on the creation of farms to gather the resources for the beginning of the city.
2210	It was during his next decade that he would send out more groups to aid the initial 'Brave Few' in their creation of what is now called 'The Abandoned City'.
2220	Work on The Abandoned City continued with no hiccups as the first settlement outside the bunkers was created, with the dangers of the outside still being very apparent, between storms, monsters, and mutants.
2230	With the twin cities' plans finally getting finished, the perimeters of it's land began to be built, with a 12 meter tall wall which surrounded a landmass of 310 meters.
2240	Focus on the city stopped as Himagi shifted it to creating the foundation of the first of the Twin Cities; Arcenso, which was to change the ground between the surface and the top of a bunker, without opening the bunker as the dangers were still too bad.
2260	The foundation of Arcenso is created. Himagi's son; Anon takes the seat and continues his family's legacy as he immediately begins to transform the bunker to accommodate what is to be the under-portion of the Arcenso.
2290	The final act Himagi accomplished was the completion of the first two layers; _ and _, of Arcenso, flustering humanity with emotions, a new sense of hope no longer seeming like a dream but a reality for their future.
2300	Himagi's only son, Machiwara takes seat and immediately begins focus on the specialization of the military, with the outside seemingly having gotten more and more dangerous as the creatures that had somehow survived in the hellish landscape begin to realize and set up their own colonies surrounding the Arcenso. Along with his focus on military, while putting others in charge of the final layer, Machiwara Himagi worked with the Yakuza to form the first Yukkojiin; Mirhana Tiko, which was created based on a Shimafukinese legend of 'power schools'. Himagi also recreated changed the primary law enforcement from the military, creating an actual police force which would be named; Ramification Legislative Law Enforcement, or R.E.L.E. for short.
2310	It was during the 240s that Himagi would form an agreement with those who chose to live in the Abandon Cities, giving them almost complete freedom in exchange for being the cities first line of defense. Some consider this the worse decision in three generations as it lead to the creation of gangs in the Abandon Cities which would later infect and corrupt the underbelly of Arcenso before being completely copied for Tirasheppo.
2320	Finally, the original plans for Arcenso was completed, with there being four layers; the Top, the Mid, the Base, and the Bottom.
2330	For the first time since the Federation's creation, a non-Himagi took the seat as Machiwara died with no child, this time it was a rather unique being and one of Machiwara's best men; Landis Gopo.
2340	However for the first time since the first Himagi, plans were changed, instead of beginning work on the second of the twin cities, Gopo started work on the surrounding area of Arcenso, starting up a small handful of camps. Often considered the only good thing to come from Gopo's time, was the advancement of radio signal understanding, allowing for a proper internet to be started instead of using the S.M.I.L.E. system that was built with the bunkers.
2350	After years of traveling around the precipices surrounding the city, roads are created and a handful of small establishments begin to be created. 400 Bunkers are counted as members of the S.S.F.
2360	With only twenty years as head, Landis Gopo steps down from his position as head, and hands it over to Nate Firl. Firl does what Gopo didn't and begins work on the second city; Tirasheppo.
2370	With nearly three hundred years of no contact with anyone outside of the U.S. and Shimafuki, message from an unknown language begin appears on Arcenso's long distance radio in the 240s.
2380	It takes nearly ten years for the people of the S.S.F. to translate the message, but it's eventually revealed to be Eisanian, with their people explaining that they have managed to create an advanced city, with pre-war conditions and accommodations.
2390	The frame for Tirasheppa is finished in lightning speed, with the dome that surrounds the base being placed on right at the end of the decade.
2400	While steady, clear contact with Eisina is being worked on, a new message appears on Arcenso's radion, revealing a community in Cananadia appears to be just barely getting by.
2410	Firl goes to his death bed as Barbara Fahn takes the seat, continuing the focus of creating the twin cities.
2420	Together, the four known countries count the total population to be at least 153 million.
2430	It was during the '60s that war against the many creatures that inhabited the crags seemed to slow as it was discovered that they were more than mindless beasts, and actually lived in their own societies that had to adapt to the extreme conditions of the surface.
2440	The first of the outside races to enter conversation with the S.S.F. was the Retic, a race of reptillian like people who revealed several things about the outside world, along with their own society and the other creatures that inhabited it.
2450	It was over this decade that study of the outside world had really began to be taken seriously in more places other than the immediate areas outside the bunkers. It was during this period that much of our understanding comes from, including the full state of the oceans and the realization that without the usage of powers, it wasn't likely that we would beable to get any form of real plants.
2460	Fahn is replaced by Varn Cual, who is often associated with the finishing of Tirasheppo as it happened shortly after he took seat.
2470	Of the many first places to be built, Chikara Koko is completed during the 400s, as the study of magnetism finds a sudden breakthrough, allowing for various new uses.
2480	Work on several new settlements begin as does work on roads traveling away from each of the Twin Cities. The new uses of magnetism begins to be implemented in the Twin Cities.
2490	Eight settlements are connected by the roads, 4 to Arcenso, 2 to Tirasheppo.
2500	People favorite Head, Cual finds himself falling into a sickness that he never recovers from, being replaced by Ricky Firl.
2510	Chikara Koko is burned down when Prog'dina lead a group of criminals to use their eaftousia against the city, leading to even more extreme laws set against the use of Eaftousia within the city limits.
2520	With the cities built and corporations beginning to gain power, corruption begins to spread from the bottom portions of the Cities, quickly finding places for itself in all layers.
2530	Yoishi begin to be sponsored and sold as actors, using their eaftousia for various reasons instead of strictly work, which creates the word; Yoioshi, with corporations backing a lot of things involving this, with medias even beginning to take part, creating an opposite title; Waruioshi.
2540	The first time Full Throttle makes an appearance and is almost instantly hated.
2550	Full Throttle makes a turn around as he begins to build up a rep of helping the little man and even stopping several extremely dangerous Waruioshi from causing too much damage.
2560	Full Throttle leaves Tirasheppo, going to help other Bunkers.
2570	Full Throttle finally makes a return to Tirasheppo to celebrate the reopening of Chikara Koko.

Here are key Sanghellic cultural rituals: The Blood Awakening (Qorthvelth) Purpose: To consecrate an individual’s connection to the divine through their bloodline. When: Performed at pivotal life stages (birth, coming of age, marriage, death). Details: A priest, or Rakhal, draws a small amount of blood from the participant and mixes it with sacred herbs or powdered gemstones. The mixture is painted in runic symbols (Sanghellic script) on the individual’s skin.

Cultural Impact: Participants gain a deeper sense of identity, often shaping their role in society.

When: During eclipses or moments of natural shadow (e.g., twilight). Details: A ceremonial bowl, called the Velsar, is filled with blood offerings from willing participants. Priests carve Sanghellic runes into ceremonial stones surrounding the altar, creating a protective circle. The Mazhel are invoked through a rhythmic chant, and participants meditate in silence, allowing the shadows to "whisper" their truths. Symbolism: The ritual emphasizes balance, ensuring harmony between light and shadow. The blood represents life freely given, not taken, a key distinction in Sanghellic philosophy. Cultural Impact: This ritual is seen as vital for maintaining spiritual equilibrium and ensuring good fortune. The Dance of Eternal Flow (Helvelthrai) Purpose: To celebrate the cycle of life, blood, and renewal. When: Held during the spring equinox or after a major victory or harvest. Details: Participants wear robes dyed in shades of red, symbolizing life and vitality. A grand blood fountain (created by mixing blood with water and dyes) is erected in the center of the ritual site, cascading down sacred stone carvings.

As the dance concludes, participants dip their hands in the fountain and paint protective symbols on their homes or foreheads. Symbolism: The flowing blood symbolizes life’s continuity and communal unity. Cultural Impact: The ritual fosters a sense of community, gratitude, and shared purpose.

The Rakhal inscribes runes symbolizing unity and commitment into a sacred stone, which is placed at a communal shrine. The participants recite the Oath of Eternity: "Through blood we are bound, through life we endure, through the Veil we transcend." A flame is lit using blood-soaked wood, signifying the eternal nature of the bond. Symbolism: Blood is the ultimate binding agent, representing the shared essence of life and trust. Cultural Impact: Breaking a Sangorth pact is considered a grave sin, with severe social repercussions.

Human sacrifices are rare and only performed in extreme circumstances or with the participant's consent. The sacrifice’s blood is collected in the Mazhar Chalice, an artifact carved with ancient runes. The Rakhal pours the blood into a sacred channel carved into the altar, allowing it to flow into the earth. The ceremony concludes with the burning of incense and the chanting of ancient hymns. Symbolism: The sacrifice symbolizes the community's willingness to give for the greater good and their submission to divine will. Cultural Impact: These rites reinforce the community’s unity and their dependence on divine protection.

When: Annually, during the Mazhel Eclipse, a time when shadows are believed to be strongest. Details: Participants gather at family shrines or ancestral burial sites. They place offerings of blood, food, and relics on the altars. The vigil is conducted in complete silence, allowing participants to "hear" the whispers of their ancestors through meditation. Sacred runes are painted on the shrine to invite the spirits to linger. Symbolism: Silence signifies openness to the divine, while the offerings symbolize gratitude and connection. Cultural Impact: The vigil strengthens familial bonds and preserves ancestral traditions. The Rite of the Veil (Qorthvelai) Purpose: A rare, secretive ritual performed by high-ranking priests to access forbidden knowledge or commune with the divine. When: Only during specific alignments of celestial bodies, such as eclipses or planetary conjunctions. Details: A circle of priests forms around a sacred altar inscribed with ancient runes. Blood from multiple participants is mixed and poured into the Veil Chalice, a ceremonial artifact believed to bridge realms. Chanting in ancient Sanghellic fills the air as the Rakhal consumes the blood, entering a trance-like state. Through the Veil, the priest seeks answers, visions, or warnings from the shadow spirits. Symbolism: The chalice represents the bridge between mortal and divine, while the blood signifies life’s offering to the unknown. Cultural Impact: These rituals guide the direction of the society, with the outcomes influencing major decisions. The Ritual of Bloodwriting (Sangrunesai) Purpose: To inscribe runes of power, protection, or invocation onto sacred objects or structures. When: Performed before battles, during construction of temples, or in personal rituals for protection. Details: A participant pricks their finger and uses the blood to draw Sanghellic runes on stone, wood, or skin. The runes are "activated" through chanting and the application of heat (often a glowing ember). Once consecrated, the object or structure is believed to hold protective or amplifying power. Symbolism: Blood is the ink of the divine, binding the written word to the spiritual realm. Cultural Impact: Bloodwriting is a revered art, with skilled practitioners holding significant status in society. ??
