The War

The former Eastern United States is an area marked by war in a post-super-apocalyptic Earth. The two factions occupying that space, the Dynasty and the Unified Society, are in combat with one another for resources, ideals, and the future of the continent and eventually the planet.

Dynasty
Who

War is mostly propagated by the head of state and higher ranking individuals, the ones that spread the ideals of the Dynasty. War is likely advised by departments tasked with reinforcing and securing the exterior and interior as well.

What

War is fought with high powered individuals, as well as a high level of technology. Underhanded techniques and superior strategy are favored as well. Undermining and researching the enemy is important.

When
Where

Areas where the two factions are lined, such as the Appalachian mountains. Anywhere there are important resources. Any strategic spots.

Why

Secure the power of the Dynasty, restore humanity in its image. Gain resources, undermine other factions. Supers may not be able to support humanity forever, so restoring the previous way of life, under the new hierarchy of power, would be the best strategic move.

Unified Society
Who

War is not the ideal solution for anyone, as everyone is busy from those at the lower ranks defending and organizing themselves to those in the higher ranks organizing the faction and further defending against natural threats (as well as Loners that see many of these areas as easy prey.)   Strategist and united militias defend Unified Society territory and resources as well as gain intelligence to avoid potential threats. A small portion of the government seeks to initiate full scale war or retaliatory strikes.

What

Those stationed around strategic points and along the edges of the faction closest to the Dynasty are those that see the most war. Those on the interior around capitols are likely to have run ins with spies and saboteurs. Leaders in the US will send additional help if needed and requested.

When

Where

Fringe settlements frequently come into contact with Dynasty scouts and armies. Those stationed around strategic locations and resources frequently see Dynasty members as well.

Why

Secure resources for the people of the Unified Society. Prevent the Dynasty from expanding and spreading its totalitarian rule. Ensure the freedom of all people.
