by USRemnant101

The Enclave has been left shattered after its defeats in both the West and East. Now is the time for High Command to begin rethinking its policy towards the outside world and for a special operations team to sift through the ruins to find a secret vault that might save the Second Republic of the United States.

History of the Enclave

The history of the Enclave is one of its most important aspects. With this history the Enclave is able to make the claim that it is the legitimate government and successor to and of the United States of America. The Enclave has an extensive record of both pre-war and post-war history pertaining to the United States of America. This section of the archive will focus specifically on a broad history of the Enclave from its founding to our current situation here in both Fort Lewis and Chicago.

Pre-War History

The Cold War (1947- 2051)

The Cold War was a long state of political unrest between the three major Blocs. These being the Western Bloc (US/ NATO), the Eastern Bloc (USSR/ Warsaw Pact) and the Far Eastern Bloc (China/Mongolia). During the first years of the Cold War the US and USSR were major rivals. In 1949 however a new power ascended in the Far East, the People's Republic of China. With the rise of China as a superpower the relations between the US and USSR begin to improve and eventually they would become somewhat allies during the Cold War both wanting to take power from China. One of the ways the was US trying to weaken Chinese influence was through proxy wars. The Cold War would continue until 2051 relations between the US and China began to improve if only temporarily. In 2051 NATO was disbanded and the European Commonwealth was formed by the major European powers.

- The Vietnam War ( 1959-1961)

This proxy war was fought between the US and China. After WW2 the country of Vietnam was granted independence by the French. Bickering between Nationalist and Communist forces let the United Nations dividing the country at the 17th parallel forming North and South Vietnam. The United States begin to build military installations in South Vietnam in order to put pressure on China. By 1959 the North Vietnamese were ready and began an invasion of the South attacking US military bases. These attacks led to the United States declaring war on North Vietnam. By 1960 half of North Vietnam had been conquered and reintegrated into the South. By late 1960 Chinese forces join the war and annexed what was left of North Vietnam. At the begining of 1961 the war was over and the Republic of Vietnam was formed as a US puppet in Southeast Asia.

American invasion of Mexico (2051)

By the late 2040s fuel shortages were beginning to become the norm. This and many other factors led to Mexico becoming extremely destabilized and a large increase in violence. The United States began to pressure Mexico to solve it's political problems and end the pollution which was seeping into the southern States. Mexico was unable to organize itself and the United States viewed this as a national security threat. In 2051 the United States invaded and later annexed Mexico in order to decrease violence in what was once the Border and to secure Mexican oil. Mexico would remain under military occupation until the Great War.

The Resource Wars (2052-2077)

All the wars fought from 2052 onwards will be known as the Resource Wars due to the fact the majority of these conflicts will be over fuel, oil and nuclear materials.

The Niagara Sabotage

The Niagara sabotage was a Chinese counterintelligence operation run in 2062. The goal of the operation was to steal US military documents about Chinese intelligence agencies. The plan failed however and all the spies were arrested and either executed or sent to the Turtledove Detention Camp.

Sea of Tranquility Conflict (2064-2065)

The Sea of Tranquility conflict will be a proxy war fought between the United States and China by there colonies on the moon. By the 2050s most major powers had established multiple military bases and colonies on the moon. The Mare Tranquillitatis or the Sea of Tranquility is were the United States established a moderately large colony and a military base. Nearby the Chinese built a large military base. Soon fighting began between American and Chinese forces. The war would mostly be fought through small to large skirmishes with very few battles being fought and by early 2065 both forces agree to a ceasefire.

Sino-American War (2066-2077)

In the spring of 2066 China's fuel crisis reached an all-time high. In its trade talks with the United States China became much more aggressive. However the United States government was unwilling to export any oil to China. With the deteriorating situation between China, the United States established a military presence in Alaska in order to prevent a Chinese takeover. With its shrinking oil reserves China claimed the last deep sea deposits in the Pacific which were then allegedly sabotage by United States Special Forces.In the winter of 2266 Chinese military forces landed in Alaska in order to capture Alaska's oil pipelines and Reserves. This would be the start of the Sino-American War.

The Battle for Anchorage (2066-2077)

In 2067 the United States deployed T-45d Power Armor Units for the first time to fight the Chinese at the Anchorage Front Line. In 2073 China began extensive use of biological weapons leading to the United States developing the Pan-Immunity Virion Project (PIVP) which would later be known as the Forced Evolutionary Virus (FEV). By 2076 the T-51b power armor was was developed and sent to fight in the Anchorage Reclamation. On January 10th 2077 Alaska's liberated from Chinese occupation and on January 28th 2077 at 16:32 any and all remaining Chinese forces were eliminated.

The Annexation of Canada (2067-2076 Canadian resistance occurred until 2077)

Relations between the United States and Canada began with the establishment of the Anchorage Front Line and US demands for the US Army to take control of Alaskan oil pipeline in Canadian territory and during the battle for Alaska the United States used Canada in order to move forces to the front in Alaska. In 2067 the Canadian Government granted control of the pipeline to the United States. Soon the US began drawing on Canadian resources to fuel the war with China, which ruined Canada's economy. Many in the States began to refer to Canada as "Little America". Canadians began to riot and in 2072 there was an attempt to sabotage the pipeline. This was all the excuse needed to begin officially annexing Canadian land. US forces under the command of General Buzz Babcock invaded Canada and were then garrison there. Babcock is quoted as saying "That was the last straw. You know what's been stopping the Reds from pouring into downtownJuneau? American soldiers, that's what. And now we've got to worry about someone - Chinese, Alaskan, or otherwise - taking out the pipeline? I don't think so. Effectively immediately, United States troops are beginning a complete takeover of all Canadian assets and resources. Little America is ours. But let's face it - it always has been." In 2076 Canada was placed under a military occupation and all civil rights were suspended to Canadian citizens. Any and all who opposed the occupation were shot on sight however fighting would not end until 2077.

*Retaliatory American Invasion or Yangtze CampaignGobi Campaign (2077)

By 2077 Chinese forces were in full retreat and the United States took the initiative and began a grueling campaign on the Chinese mainland. US operations in China would be divided into two campaigns the Yangtze and Gobi. The Yangtze Campaign would be fought near the Yangtze River. With the deployment of Power Armour Units to the mainland Chinese supply lines broke down and the cities of Shanghai and Nanjing fell to US forces. The Gobi campaign took place near the Gobi desert in Mongolia. The Chinese military had built a vast Network of strongholds straight through the Gobi Desert which US forces attacked and destroyed pushing South into China proper.

*Domestic Problems

During the Sino-American war the US faced many domestic issues. The most important of these problems was the New Plague otherwise known as the Blue Flu or Limit 115. This plague had an extremely high mortality rate. Symptoms of the plague included in early cases flu like symptoms followed by profuse sweating, swelling and hemorrhaging. After about three to five days those suffering from the New Plague suffer death. This plague caused 200,000 deaths and lead to the first national quarantine of Four States Commonwealth. The war caused a food shortages stateside and many began to protest and even riot. In mid 2077 Power Armor Units were deployed to put down a food riot for the first time. There were also many communist elements that helped with Chinese infiltration and helped organize strikes.

The Enclaves Foundation

The Enclave can trace its origin to the pre-war United States government. High-level government officials and important corporate figures began to form a continuity of government plan for the nuclear war that they felt was inevitable. Secret fallback positions were established for part of the United States government to retreat to and the vaults were funded by the government for both the preservation of US citizens and to test others. On October 23rd 2077 nuclear war broke out between the United States and China, whom had already been fighting over the last resources on Earth. High ranking elements the United States government fled to Safety in order to enact their continuity of government plan. The new United States government would be headquartered at Control Station Enclave where they would write a new constitution and form the post-war United States government.

Post-War History

Enclave Expeditions

For decades the Enclave remained on Control Station Enclave and continued to advance their technology with the invention of the XVB02 Vertibird and Advanced Power Armor Mark 1 (MK1) along with its Tesla variant (MK1T). After the radiation begin to subside Enclave scouting parties began to explore California, shortly after the defeat of the master. There they found Super Mutants, Ghouls and highly irradiated humans. Enclave leadership declared them all a threat and stated that they needed to be eradicated in order to restore American democracy. More scouting parties were sent out and eventually the Enclave discover the Mariposa Military Base where the Forced Evolutionary Virus (FEV) had been developed before the war, which had accidentally led to the creation of the Super Mutants. Shortly thereafter the Enclave begin to research the FEV and using slave labor gather from the town of Redding, collected samples of the virus. Many from Redding begin to turn into Super Mutants and after learning that they would be executed, staged a revolt against the Enclave personnel stationed there using stolen equipment. The Enclave troops were forced to retreat from the site but not before gathering their samples and destroying the entrance to the facility behind them trapped in the mutants inside.

FEV Curling-13

With the samples of needed FEV the Enclaves United States Chemical Corps began to develop a chemical weapon to kill all the mutants on the mainland and develop a cure for that weapon. It was named FEV Curling-13 after Lieutenant Colonel Charles Curling who invented it. The Chemical Corps needed to make sure Curling-13 worked. Subjects were collected from both vault 13 and the village of Arroyo. The tests proved successful and the Enclave prepared to deploy the weapon, until a tribal named The Chosen One activated Control Station Enclaves self-destruct sequence putting the enclaves plans on hold for the time being.

The Retreat

After the destruction of Control Station Enclave and the subsequent deaths of the president, vice president and Congress what was left of the Enclave retreated to Camp Navarro and a few scattered outposts. In 2242 Senior Researcher Autumn was contacted by the new president John Henry Eden and told to bring a large contingent of the remaining Enclave personnel to the Raven Rock complex (Site R). In 2246 forces from both the New California Republic and the Brotherhood of Steel began what is known as the Sacking of Navarro. They launched an assault on the facility and took it from the Enclave. With the fall of Navarro Enclave forces in the west were scattered with a small portion fleeing North to Fort Lewis while the rest either integrated into the NCR or formed small pockets of resistance under a new local command.

Reconstruction

As Senior Researcher Autumn crossed the country he left a small Detachment in the City of Chicago to establish itself. When Senior Researcher Autumn arrived at Site R the new president John Henry Eden assumed authority over the Enclave and began to industrialize the Enclave again. Many improvements to technology began under Eden's Administration including the creation of the eyebot, Advanced Power Armor Mark 2 (MK2) with its Tesla variant(MK2T) and Hellfire Power Armor(MK3). Enclave forces in the East begin to rebuild their strength. They established themselves both at Site R and Adams Air Force Base as well as sending out Enclave eyebots into the Capital Wasteland to spread Enclave propaganda. After the death of Senior Researcher Autumn his son Colonel Augustus Autumn was placed in command of the DC detachment of the Enclave.

The Purifier Conflict

In 2277 Project Purity, a massive water purifier ment to clean the water in the DC Tidal Basin, was captured by The Enclave just before the Brotherhood Affiliated scientist in charge of the project got it to work. The purifier was still missing the GECK which it needed to begin functioning. Colonel Autumn waited for the lone Wanderer ,the son of the head scientist of Project Purity, to retrieve the Geck and then capture him. When Brotherhood forces learned of this they mobilize their forces to assault the purifier. Brotherhood troops with the help of Liberty Prime ,a massive combat robot, punch through the enclaves defenses and the purifier fell to the Brotherhood. Not long after this the Brotherhood used Liberty Prime to destroy Site R. A few weeks later Brotherhood troops assaulted the satellite relay in Rockland in order to knockout Enclave Communications. As Liberty Prime advanced on the facility Enclave forces called in an orbital strike from the Bradley-Hercules orbital weapons platform which destroyed the machine. Brotherhood forces, after sustaining heavy casualties, still managed to take the facility and find the location of Adams Air Force Base. Knowing it was only a matter of time before the base was destroyed evacuations of Enclave forces began, heading north to establish a local command or west towards fall back Point Redemption in Chicago. A few days after the fall of Rockland Brotherhood forces assaulted Adams Air Force base while the lone Wanderer infiltrated the base calling in an orbital strike on the facility.
