The Roaring Twenties, a time of peace, prosperity, and wealth, especially in the United States. Until 1929, when stocks in the U.S crashed leading to the demise of the global economy. America was soon plunged into economic despair and poverty. With it looking like the American democracy was failing, riots soon broke out across the nation, with many people turning to the far right and left making the United States more divided than it ever was before. However, America's situation was about to worsen even more as a mysterious storm soon arrived in the nation, coating the entire country with bright light. Now the U.S finds itself alone and as the only beacon of democracy in this strange new world. Will the U.S begin the New Manifest Destiny with these savage creatures, or will it start to redeem itself from the mistakes of the past? Only time will tell. (Takes place around season 5)
