The year is 2278 and two centuries ago was the start of the apocalypse that caused the inevitable end to mankind and is what caused the Earth to become what it is today. In the year 2054 the development of energy weapons started namely plasma and laser. The development of these potent ordnances concluded when the Great War started and to this day a very diminutive amount remain due to the conclusion and them being lost in the Wasteland. In unison with plasma and laser, thick armour was forged and it could withstand vast amounts of injury it was later named Power Armour and it is now a relic from a prehistoric war.
The ancient conflict between America and Russia had intensified after finding a material known as Premathane. This material sent out colossal volumes of disastrous radioactivity as well as annihilating and obliterating whatever stood in its caustic path. Both America and Russia had recovered vast amounts of Premathane from an unnamed island; they began to generate nuclear-powered bombs. Both sides of the conflict panicked at their utmost enemy were regulating such power. Both countries began to surreptitiously enlist others into their cause; they couldn't trust each other with the power the Premathane bombs had given them. They were ready to declare a War that would terminate the world. So all of the countries formulated a plan to save innocent inhabitants, they built the most High-Tec Fallout bunkers they could at this time. This included them being tailored with Water decontaminant systems (Otherwise known as water purifiers), enough beds to house a significant ample amount of people, an economical way to accumulate food in sufficient stocks and the only metal to endure the power of the Premathane. The Fallout bunkers were referred to as Vaults, the Vault dwellers had to wait agonisingly as the Great War started.
America and Russia were submerged in an all-out war that plunged the Earth into pandemonium and confusion. It came to the time of the Great War that would cause the Earth to never recuperate back to its once luscious state. Russia bombed the whole Earth, obliterating it.
As the Great War finished, the fighting completely ended. The Vault Dwellers began to emerge from the Vaults in pursue their former lives. Though the Earth was dissimilar, it had been soaked in the blood of innumerable lives, plants black and desiccated. Earth would certainly not be the same again. The troublesome radioactivity turned animals into malicious, unearthly and chill some abominations. Humans turned into Raiders and zombies from immense absorption of radiation. Life was virtually extinguished entirely.
With Earth now a desolate wasteland, a burden was put on the shoulders of said Vault Dwellers, their duty to refabricate societies, re-establish homes, restore the peace to the wasteland and forge a future. A future in which there were no hostilities or confrontations. A future that would allow mortal man to begin rebuilding Earth.
