This is the summary for the background of a new RP I'm trying to force myself to work on.
The history. This is a quasi-UC future. Could even say it's AUC's future. The colonies engaged in what was known as the "Age of Warring Space states". But it reached it's climax with money of the factions and even whole colonies being destroyed. The remnants were so die hard fanatical they engaged in terror attacks against Earthnoids, who they scapegoated as the source of all their problems. Leading to a war that culminated in the dropping of all functioning colonies on the Earth. The Lunarians were spared this fate when their tactical MS teams infiltrated the colonies targeting the Moon and set off nuclear warheads inside.
The catastrophic damage to the Earth led to a massive environmental changes. The north and south most parts of the planet are persistent freezing wastelands. Where this bleeds off, there is desert, the vegetation having died off. Toward the equator of the world, in places where there was once ocean, now there is vegetation growing rapidly and new land masses formed from the colony strikes.
A hundred years passed. The Lunarians voted to leave the Earth alone and simply observe. The survivors of the Earth managed to collect around the equator regions. The most populated and active being situated around what is formally known as Ecuador. However aside from some mountains that survived the colony drops, the landscape is radically changed.
Despite quite literally being bombed into the stone age and the reshaping of the planet. Technology progressed quickly in a hundred years, thanks to the efforts of salvage hunters. Tensions between various groups built up slowly. With skirmishes becoming the norm for a time. However one faction salvaged three working mechs and began engaging in whole sale extermination. With claims of mutant impurities and other ideological jargon as justification.
The Lunarians saw the writing on the wall. A vote was taken and intervention decided on. As a show of force they destroyed the enemy mechs with a single mech, then proceeded to destroy the settlements of the aggressive faction. A delegation of the Lunarian Guild put together a conference for all of the leaders of the various groups. An "Offer" was made to them, receive technology to better your lives and protect yourself. But no longer engage in open warfare. The factions took the "offer". Though most see it as an ultimatum.
Nonetheless. The offer leads to coalescing of the various groups into proper states. The technology provided on the medical front helps to improve birth rates and reduce mortality rates. Disputes are settled with Fracas of set tonnage. Thanks to the armor techniques provided by the Lunarian Guild, loss of life is greatly reduced. However there are incidents. One involved the creation of a war blimp. War blimps became a thing for whatever reason. However the factions had made a agreement on the tonnage capacity of such a blimp. One faction built it much larger than the agreement specified. The Lunarian Guild reacted and destroyed the blimp recovering the reactor. It left the faction with only two reactors. Which limited it's ability to produce and recharge particle cells.
