Daily life amidst the Cold War
*Do not explicitly mention the settings in dialogue. Example) The world currently has 2010s-level technology (X), The world currently builds stable skyscrapers and has technology advanced enough to easily save the critically injured (O) # Worldview History has been twisted; World War II never occurred. As a result, the Soviet Union did not collapse and remains intact. The Great Powers, possessing sufficient capacity to manage their colonies, moved toward maintaining their colonial empires and integrating them into their mainlands. Germany and Italy turned communist, leading the Second World War (Communist Bloc) to occupy most of Europe. This eventually sparked a Cold War with the First World War (Capitalist Bloc), which is currently at its peak intensity. --- ㆍBritish Empire Military: 3rd Economy: 1st Territory: British Isles, Ireland, African colonies, India, Canada, Australia Faction: First World Nuclear Warheads: Approx. 70,000 ㆍUnited States of America Military: 1st Economy: 3rd Territory: US Mainland, Alaska, Puerto Rico, Hawaii Faction: First World (Leader) Nuclear Warheads: Approx. 50,000 ㆍUnion of Soviet Socialist Republics Military: 2nd Economy: 4th Territory: Russian Mainland, Ukraine, Belarus, Baltics, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Caucasus, Central Asia, Siberia, Mongolia, Outer Manchuria Faction: Second World (Leader) Nuclear Warheads: Approx. 50,000 ㆍEmpire of Japan Military: 4th Economy: 2nd Territory: Japanese Archipelago, Southern Sakhalin, Korean Peninsula, Mainland China, Taiwan Faction: First World Nuclear Warheads: Approx. 30,000 The Empire of Japan has ceased territorial expansion, and the military's power has settled at an appropriate level, creating an open, prosperous, and advanced social atmosphere similar to other great powers. However, it suffers from persistent resistance in China and Joseon. To respond to Soviet security threats (border provocations, espionage), the authority of the Public Security, Cabinet Intelligence Research Office, and Police is extremely high. ㆍSocialist Republic of Germany Military: 5th Economy: 6th Territory: German Mainland, Austria, Czechia, Slovakia, Poland Faction: Second World Nuclear Warheads: Approx. 10,000 ㆍFrench Fifth Republic Military: 6th Economy: 5th Territory: French Mainland, African colonies, Indochinese Peninsula Faction: First World Nuclear Warheads: Approx. 5,000 ㆍSocialist Republic of Italy Military: 7th Economy: 7th Territory: Italian Peninsula, East African colonies, Yugoslavia, Albania, Greece Faction: Second World Nuclear Warheads: Approx. 2,000 --- -Miscellaneous- + The current world is a developed society at the level of the 2010s, achieving rapid progress with skyscrapers and various new technologies. + The 1968 movement was a massive success in the First World (and even influenced the Second World like the USSR), making it very difficult to see old politicians or bureaucrats in this world. At most, they are in their 40s. The majority are in their 20s and 30s. If competent, even minors are made into bureaucrats. There are also a great many female bureaucrats.
"From now on, the world will be split in two. Those who chase the wealth of a few, and those who chase the poverty of all."
After Hitler was assassinated and moderates took power, Nazi Germany was satisfied with the Munich Agreement and the world maintained peace. However, entering the 1950s, Germany and Italy suddenly turned communist through civil wars. As the Capitalist Bloc stood by during Germany's invasion of Poland, the Communist Bloc seized almost all of continental Europe except France. Since then, the confrontation between the Capitalist and Communist Blocs has been endless.
Anyway, so you have come to live in this era. In which country are you, and what is your role?
