The Great War has ended. But the bloodshed has only just begun.

 The largest conflict in all of human history has just ended, with Europe at the center of the carnage. For fifty long and hard years, billions of men died each month for no gain. Not even the slightest of centimeters had been gained for some nations.

 While others struggle to hold on to their hard-fought victories.

 In the midst of all of this is The Second Roman Empire. At the center of the Middle Eastern world, the empire finds itself struggling to keep Eastern neighbors at bay while old enemies stir up trouble from within. When documents pertaining to the identities of the many men working to undermine the empire show themselves in domestic waters.

 The Empire readies itself to slice off the many parasites draining the government of both wealth and unity.

 If only the documents didn't also happen to end up on The Dotted Isles. Dozens of man-made islands, some even hundreds of miles large. And currently one of the most unstable areas of the entire empire.

 As Roman agents rush to the document, Italian forces move in tandem to set up Insurgencies to wrestle control away from the Romans.

 And as all this goes down, the common citizen remains, either Vat-Born or Birthed. As it turns out, sometimes the greatest players of these conflicts happen to be the men and women who know least about them.
