THE SYSTEM
The New World government that was established after The Fall. It was created to build society back up, taking advantage of the emptiness left behind. This government believes that in order to prevent destruction, you need to control individuality. Pressuring citizens to conform to their new laws by any means is their top priority. They built walls in order to keep any unwanted individuals out, any “bad eggs” in a sense. All cities under the System’s eye are sheltered from the outside. Those inside have little to no clue about what is actually going on, believing the lies and propaganda The System feeds them through fake media and news stories. The government does not want to alarm its people feeling that they could lose control if chaos spreads again.
FACELESS LEADERSHIP-
The System and its people are run under the watchful eyes of the UCOS (the united co-operative syndicate). This faceless leadership is made up of a group of individuals that are connected to the Old World in some way. Each of them are assigned a representative that will present and carry through their ideas with the public.
COMPLETE CONTROL -
All news outlets and television stations are controlled by The System. The internet is censored, and all content is controlled, anything that could cause hysteria is removed and replaced swiftly and quickly. News is all fabricated, often scripted to favor the government. They make sure to keep a balance with everything that goes out, feeding people propaganda without instilling fear. Residents are rabid consumers, blinded by the illusion of excessive choice. Corporations are System controlled as well, so all products are propaganda.Militarized police is common and could be found in sectors that house important buildings. They have a strict shoot to kill system, any sort of abnormal behavior is taken very seriously. This is due to the fact that The System sees any sort of enemy of the government as inhuman, and everyone should play their part in eradicating said enemies.
ID CHIPS -
ID chips are chips put into the necks of all System citizens.
These chips contain info such as : place and date of birth ,
criminal record, relevant job information and location access. It
is also used as a form of payment, many locations only let you pay
with your ID chip. They can check your credit score and bank
information. The chip essentially connects you with The System’s
database, any place under the watchful eye of the System you will
be located.
Chips are also used for location access.
ID chips are possible to be taken out, but the process is very
dangerous. Firstly, to get to it is hard work in itself, but to
remove the chip without setting it off is harder.
The chips are designed to detonate if tampered with.
Common ID chips
Weapon restrictions -
All System made weapons come with a safety precaution added. They are built to lock if necessary , preventing holders from being unable to use it unless taken off. Perimeters around the cities are in place at all times and will lock weapons when needed.
