That event created shockwaves of turmoil. The world already in the throes of World War III reacted with panic.

The Chinese and what was left of Russia feared that America would be the sole benficiary of the advanced technology increased their war efforts with an unprecedented ferocity.

Russia had been completely obliterated, with only small communities in the vast Siberian frontier surviving the years of war and are reduced to pre industrial feudalism of the most primitive state.

China unable to feed its masses; deprived of the nuclear onslaught hoping for it to reduce their own population and thus avoid the worst hunger catastrophe. The nuclear boms never rained on China, but the effects f hunger and famine are equally horrendous and demand a heavy toll.

A membership the Xunx want to prevent.
