NOTE: This is fiction. Sony Online Entertainment does not endorse this.
2004: George W. Bush defeated by Howard Dean in United States elections.
2005: Howard Dean assassinated when Air Force One is shot down "by accident" over Great Britain by RAF Harriers, conspiracy theorists note that Dean, Lincoln, and Kennedy have been the only 3 non-Illuminati US Presidents, all 3 were killed.
2006: Steve Jackson Games profits surge with the release of the internet game "Illuminati". (The project was kept secret.)
2008: European Union Armed Forces activated.
2009: People's Republic of China falls, Republic of China formed.
2012: Most of Western Europe unified under EU.
2013: UNA (United North America) formed, uniting Canada, Mexico, the United States, and several Caribbean Nations.
2014: Proletariat revolts in Russia, Communist government takes power.
Late 2014: EU, UNA, and China declare war on the NUSSR (new USSR), victory in 2015.
2016: General market depression felt in many sovereign nations (nations not aligned like the EU and UNA).
2017: EU breaks up after nuclear weapon detonates in Zurich during a summit. Nations blame each other.
Late 2017: Illuminati "comes out of the dark", coups the UNA, China.
2018: World War III begins.
2028: War ends, culminating in the detonation of nuclear weapons over Paris, Berlin, New Delhi, Tokyo, and Johannesburg. Almost 4 billion are dead due to the war. (World population pre-war 8 million). Illuminati control ALL of the Americas and Europe, China, Japan, India, Australia, most of Asia, the Middle East, and South Africa.
2030: Rest of world gradually unites- Illuminati domination of the world is complete. The Illuminati government is characterized by less of an emphasis on military might and more for the people. The people are more or less happy. This comes at steep price- individual freedoms are almost completely forsaken, as in George Orwell's 1984. Scholars still debate if Illuminati rule was that bad.
2030- 2120: Illuminati control the globe.
August 12, 2120: Neo-Fascist revolt succeds in taking over the states of Columbia (former United North America), Muscovia (former Russia), Beijing (former China), Tokyo-2 (former Japan (Tokyo completely destroyed)). They call themselves the "Terran Republic."
Late 2120: Revolt spreads to Airstrip One (former Great Britain).
2120-2132: The Great Revolution fought. Nuclear weapons again detonated over New York City, San Francisco, Mexico City.
December 2, 2132: Terran Republic takes control of the globe. Life becomes almost exactly like "1984". The records of the past are dramatically altered. Gradually, history changes until by the next generation, the Republic was formed by a treaty, and most of the events on this timeline have been erased or altered.
2134: Lunar colony "L-1" founded.
2180: Martian colony "M-1" founded.
Many other colonies founded on these planets.
3243: Wormhole found where scientists long theorized the 14th planet in our solar system was.
New dating system takes over from there: instead of "anno Domini" which means "The Year of our Lord", it turns into "AW" for "After Wormhole".
