"War is not a folly of the human condition, it is a benefit of the human condition. What seperates man from his distant apes cousins, who still hang from the vines of darkest Africa? We had purpose. We sought not the food of fruit and meat from the dark canopies, we sought the greatest fruit of knowledge and domination, to this day, man is no ordinary ape, man is ape that wages war, erects buildings taller than the greatest trees on earth. To this day, man is king."-Charles Darwin.

Charles Darwin, founder of the ideology of Revolutionary Technocracy. Darwin argued that humanity was the greatest species on earth and so should exploit as much of nature as possible, as well as arguing that humanity should be governed "scientifically" as opposed to a monarchical or democratic government. Technocracy would take over much of Europe, before losing a Cold War to the USA and Chinese Empire, though the latter two remain rivals to this day.

Marc Anthon, a Popular United System (PUS) historian in 2642 AD, after knowledge of the 20th and 21st century is obscured by link rot and loss of sources (even without a particular Dark Age) about what he presumes to be Russian Kings or Emperors. Frequently the title "Zar", "Tsar" or "Czar" seems to be used and somebody called Vladimir Putin, Potin, Puti, Poti or similarly seems to have destroyed a Russian "Union" or "Empire" for the third and final time - after Mikhail just a generation earlier and Ivan in "ancient times" - until the fiefdoms on the territory that Anthon thinks the Empire occupied at its height were gobbled up by the PUS.

"The Gibraltar Bridge is complete"
Francisco Franco's simple message to the European Nations, announcing completion of the Italian-Franco-Spanish joint project to bridge the straits of Gibraltar, and close the Mediterranean off to the British once and for all, was received with ecstatic applause. Though Italy had formally received most of the British Empire in North Africa following the wartime closure of the straits (an elaborate diplomatic game had seen the two alleged neutrals, Vichy France and Spain, exchange North African territories to set up the blockade), Mussolini had to work with the other Mediterranean fascists to integrate their economies into Hitler's European superstate. The project was long delayed, and fraught with cost overruns and jurisdictional friction, but it served as a powerful symbol of united European fascism.

"The Gibraltar Bridge is complete"

Grandiose comment by King Ferdinand VII after the signing of the Anglo-Spanish Pact, in 1815. Spain and Britain had been allies against Napoleon since Ferdinand ascended to the throne and spun the country towards the Empire - followingn the Napoleonic Wars, the pact was seen as a way for the battered to Spain to keep control of its restive colonies and open up trade with the British Empire as a favoured ally. Trade between the two Empires was duly called the Gibraltar Bridge. This was replaced by the Falklands Bridge after the flight of the Regent Maria and young Isabella II to Spanish America, when Britain decided the colonies (now "Kingdom of Hispamerica") were more important to keep as allies than the old country. "Bridge" has since become the common term for a trade agreement or other alliance.

The Werhmacht had been ravaged in fighting in Czechslovakia proper and Scandinavia, and the forces were bolstered by SS, Hitler Youth, and volunteers. While German forces pushed the Soviets back, they then entrenched themselves in much of the East and began to ethnically cleanse it.
