Quote by Historian Pat Sajak on the various Emirates of Rus dotting the Siberian tundra. Once tribal hordes with various tribal and monotheistic religions they were converted by Zorastrians fleeing the Muslim conquest of Persia. To the rest of the world it looked as if the ancient religion had all but died. That is until the mid 1700s when the burgeoning Russian Empire crushed the Sibir Khanate and started its westward expansion. They did not get far before running into the first of these budding nations who were more or less completely cut off from the rest of the world for centuries. After knocking over the first two reletivly easily the Russians were met by a massive Confederation made up of the rest of the Zorastrian enclaves. After fifteen bloody wars and five shortlived Russian victories, the Russians abandoned Siberia all together. In the modern day the once tens of dozens of small emirates had consolidated into the larger Five States of Siberia. Today they are mostly highly religious republics with only one, the Siberian State being described as The Black Hole of Earth run by a despotic dictator twisting the peaceful religion to his needs. All in all however the Five States are a bastion of Zorastrianism keeping the religion alive and acting as the headquarters for the massive Temple of Zoraster.

Professor Kyle Fairbank's words to the remnants of a humanity suffering oppression, in a world gone mad. A World War 5 decimated the planet, science was akin to magic. Humanity's last hope was time travel research, long acknowledged as a waste of resources until the science breached into a reality that wasn't dying.
Byzantine Emperor Justinian I when he learned that the Samaritans won the revolt against the troops sent by the former, with the help of rebel (although able) Ghassanid commanders and their battalions, who helped the Samaritans improve their guerrilla tactics. As the result, which Byzantine Emperor Justinian I personally described as "humiliating", the Samaritans were given (limited) autonomy in their own internal affairs, with rebel leader Julianus ben Sabar appointed as governor of the province of Palæstina Prima.
A popular phrase to shout during October 31st in the west coast of America (seriously screw the states, can't reference the America continents without confusing for the U.S.A) during the 2050s. Legend goes in the early 2000's all across the land corn came alive screaming the name Miiiiiiiiinnnnna! (an internet meme went beyond insane in the 2040s, people thought it was funny, then 2050s added it to the culture of Halloween)
