Roach-Busters

Several centuries have passed since the nation known as Roach-Busters was swept into the dustbin of history. Hundreds upon hundreds of years have elapsed since RB was toppled by a communist revolution which had been extensively backed by international aggressors. Millions of lives were lost, a once robust economy was in tatters, and mass chaos ensued, resulting in the eventual disappearance of RB from world maps.

Yet, like a phoenix, RB would arise from the ashes.

After the assassination of Generalissimo J.L., his family, and his Cabinet, their bodies were put in cryogenic suspension, so they would be perfectly preserved. And perfectly preserved they remained.

Until now.

A team of scientists of Roach-Busterian descent, having read up on their former country, longed to witness the rebirth of their fallen land. And the bodies of the former government members- preserved in cryogenic suspension- were the key to said rebirth.

Being the ingeniously dexterous and adept genetic engineers they were, the scientists were able to create perfect clones of J.L., his family, and his Cabinet, even restoring all of their long-lost memories. It was as if they had never died. The scientists then wired the newly revived people and wired them to a programming machine, where data on the events that had transpired the past few hundred years, as well as information on the current era, was downloaded into their brains. Now, all they needed was land.

Fortunately for them, the former country of Roach-Busters was now unoccupied "no-man's" land. They colonized it, and within fifty years had created a thriving, sprawling, prosperous nation that rivaled- surpassed, even- the Roach-Busters of old.

RB was back in business.

The Chronosian Imperium has eyes and ears even as far back as hallowed Terra; and few things are beyond the tyrannous sight of the Dark ones. Through one of many scrying stone sensor arrays, the Emperor heard of this new occurance and chuckled wryly; his laughter echoing through the void. At last, it seemed, there would be a new power rising; one which he knew could one day prove to be interesting...
