Globe in The Final War

The Final War

It is estimated that somewhere between one and a half and two billion people died globally following the outbreak and the subsequent and ongoing war as humanity struggled to cope. Exact numbers may never be known. Countries struggled with desperate populations trying to flee and borders were rewritten in the ensuing conflicts.

The number of people lost to the disease is thought to be significantly less than those killed in rioting, panic and the punitive enforcement of emergency powers.

Large continents still have packs of Affecteds running wild.

The isolationist mentality of each country when faced with the disaster resulted in effective communications blackouts for most people. With no television and only state-approved radio stations little information is known about the world at large.
