Catching-Fire_poster.jpg
A poster of the unreleased film The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (2013). It would've been released November 22 had the Great Panic not happened. This film, along with others planned for late 2013-early 2014 releases, are considered lost media.

The logo for the American science fantasy drama television series Riverworld (2029-present). Based on the Philip Jose Farmer books of the same name published in the 1970s and 1980s. It was the first successful adaptation of the series following two failed pilots that were made in 2010 and 2003. The series is set in an unknown point far into the future on a massive earth-like planet consisting of river valleys appearing across it's surface. Every human being from mans beginning to the early 21st-century has been resurrected on this planet. The series has a large ensemble cast, which include Davy Crockett, Alice Liddell, Mark Twain, Lothar Von Richtofen, Theodore Roosevelt, Cyrano de Bergerac, Marco Polo, Aphra Behin, Tom Mix, a Neanderthal named Kazz, and curiously, a extraterrestrial from Tau Ceti named Monat Grrautut. The protagonists try to figure out why they're revived and who's responsible, all the while coming into contact with antagonists such as King John Lackland, Grigori Rasputin, and Erik Bloodaxe.

The series became one of the first major successful television shows after the War and has a broad, active, and international fan base. Critics has praised the series for it's acting, complex characters, story, scope, and production values.

Honolulu PD officers move an ATV while on patrol of America's provisional capital, c. 2014. Notice the officers and the public wearing masks despite Solanum being disproven as an airborne strain.

Rocca Imperiale in Italy is an example of a medieval town that thought its walls would protect them from the Zombies. However in Rocca Imperiale like so many other places those same walls had been compromised, built against, and the defences made irrelevant. There was a spirited defence of the Castle, but hunger, and a blocked well saw the survivors make a breakout attempt that saw the Castle fall.

The town has not been resettled as a memorial, similar to so many in Italy and across the world.

That town really looks defensible. Just destroy that maze-like road or block it. I wonder how the walls would have fell considering this is concrete.

One of the scenes showing the forlorn evacuation of Japan. In this picture, refugees are shown waiting for the evacuation ships at an anonymous port in Toyama Prefecture, looking ragged from the long time they spent at the evacuation centres, or in other cases, after just escaping with their life. In the background, the rising smokes show the attempts done by the JDF to stall the flow of siafus and give the refugees as much time as possible to escape.

Even after arriving in the main Japanese safe zone at Kamchatka, hardship still awaits the Japanese exiles. In this picture, newly arrived refugees from one of the last waves to leave Japan are directed to walk to the refugees processing centres among the falling snows.

A picture from an anonymous source (most likely refugees or local authorities) shows the arrival of South Korean evacuees at a newly-created safe zone in Gangwon Province. Being mountainous, sparsely populated, and located near the North Korean borders where around half of the country's armed forces are stubbornly kept (due to government's paranoia - see World War Z) seems to do favours for Gangwon-do, which along with the offshore island of Jeju form some of the country's principal safe zones. Despite geographical barriers, however, its position that also borders densely populated Gyeonggi-do and the capital Seoul proves to be quite challenging for the defenders of the safe zones in this region, who faced several pushbacks before they managed to stabilize their positions in the mountains.

Undated footage, whether or not maybe a lost photo of empty streets of Manila during the time when the zombies or zeks as the media and government called 'irrational and mindless rioters' have broken out from the hospitals or any crowded places which swarmed into every place in the mid-2013 as evacuations were commenced but only a few of them or most of which comes from parts of the capital, the entirety of Rizal, or others have been evacuated to mountainous parts of Rizal while the most of the population were falling into zek horde.
 
WWZ Year One - The Great Panic

Towards the end of the great Panic, where the number of the undead rose significantly, and the loss of human life was at numbers too great to comprehend, fires and destruction were frequently common as humanity fought for survival. Fires were often started via many methods, such as survivors trying to burn the undead, who would then stumble in though doorways while still burning and take human hideouts with them. Other causes such as falling candles in human defences, cooking left inatneded while people fought for their lives (or attacked and devoured), explosives being used by civilians and the millitary alike and the deliberate luring of the undead into buildings and trap them so that the building could be burned down as a method to dispose of the undead en mass were frequent.

A local restaurant is seen burning to the ground in Illinois USA as the dead gather in large numbers, likely attracted by the flames or the survivors who were huddled on top of the roof of which this photo was taken during the first year of the war. As apparent in the photo, electricity grids were still running at this stage but were intermittently unreliable with some areas completely without power and some still able to hold onto the grid.

Civilian militia seen in public. After World War Z, American society became more liberal when it comes to carrying guns since a lone zombie would be dispatched faster before authorities could react.
