The Industrial second era of Seneca falls is a huge, devout nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 696 million are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.
The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, pro-business morass -- is mainly concerned with Law & Order, although Defence and Religion & Spirituality are on the agenda. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32%. A very small private sector is dominated by the Gambling industry.
The government covers the basic health care of its citizens, the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, teachers regularly paddle unruly students, and the nation's drinking water tends to glow green at night. Crime is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Seneca falls's national animal is the Herring, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Falling Dollar.
The history of Seneca falls is long and confusing… Our history near the beginning was unremarkable…..Around the year 15,000 we entered a time of prolonged peace and mass conglomerates and huge companies were made with all the technological advances we we’re traveling through space easily and had leisure cruises in space. Eventually the government colonized a planet very near ours. It became the Colony of Darius. Darius prospered. Darius’ history is very interesting in itself. About 2000 years after it’s colonization it was visited by people calling themselves “Techpriests of Mars” and they taught the best machine makers of Darius the art of the “Machine spirit”. These “Techpriests” taught them that all machine’s had a spirit and eventually taught the Machine Makers of Darius how to make what they called “Battlefleet ships” These were massive arcane machines with massively destructive weapons and we constructed a fleet with the Techpriests, they taught us how to tap into the machine spirit and connect a man’s spirit to a machine’s through a device that is jacked into the back of the head. Up until this point Seneca falls had continued to grow in economic strength and the Conglomerates started to fight over territory and eventually this developed into a full scale war which destroyed almost all of the populace of Seneca falls. After what we call the “fall” The people on Seneca Falls lost contact with Darius and lost almost all technological knowledge. by 2010 AF (After Fall) we had re-established communication with darius and had progressed technologically to the point of Assault rifles and heavy explosives. Darius became the home of The Techpriests and renamed itself Forgeworld Darius. The Battleships were still intact but the technology was ancient and after the Techpriests of Mars left Almost all knowledge about the construction and maintenance of weapons and everything else to do with the Battlefleet was lost, only a select few; the Priests of the Temple to The Machine Spirit have that knowledge.
