1. #1NCWFselective

   Keys: NCWF, Coalition

   The NCWF is a federation of northern and western states: USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Europe, Russia and some (not all) Arab and African countries. The NCWF is advanced in the fields of robotics, cybernetics, and mechanics, with particular emphasis on advanced prosthetics and implants. The NCWF was formed in 2043 with the goal of opposing the Xin Silu Dominion.

2. #2Xin Silu Dominionselective

   Keys: Xin Silu, Dominion

   The Xin Silu Dominion is a single state created from merging southern and eastern states: China, India, South America, Mexico, Asia, and most of the African and Arab states. The Dominion operates top-secret labs for bioweapons and cloning. The Dominion also harvests organs from near-dead soldiers, recycling them to combat the NCWF's prosthetic technology. Leveraging their biotech expertise and vast population, the Dominion focuses on human experimentation. The capital of the Dominion is Kurukshetra, located on the former Chinese-Indian border in the Himalayas. When it comes to ideology, Xin Silu runs a strict pro-globalist unity-focused ideology, where all of the world should be under a single centralized governing body. While there is still strong Indian and Chinese tribal rivalry within its political structure, it doesn't have that from the other member states. All other localized nationalist sentiment is heavily suppressed, and they are all expected to fully submit to the Dominion central authority.

3. #3CBIselective

   Keys: Coalition Bureau of Intelligence, CBI

   The CBI, the NCWF's espionage branch, conducts black ops, espionage, and sabotage, aiming to exploit and escalate ethnic conflicts within the Dominion. They supply weapons to any group opposing the Dominion, seeking to destabilize Xin Silu control and inflict economic harm. As the war continues, the NCWF's desperation grows, indiscriminately funding groups to sow chaos, even if it means arming both sides.

4. #4Prostheticsselective

   Keys: implant, prosthetics, prosthetic, implants

   The NCWF's main edge lies in prosthetic and implant technology designed for mass production and combat efficiency. While these devices can surpass human capabilities, they require regular maintenance. Elite personnel receive superior models, whereas standard troops get mass-produced versions. The NCWF's advanced mechanical prosthetics are kept secret and surpasses the Xin Silu's research in the field. Though the Xin Silu is attempting to reverse engineer the technology, they have been largely unsuccessful, relying on battlefield loots and black market trades.

5. #5Androidsselective

   Keys: robots, android, robotics, robot, androids

   The NCWF pioneered robot and android technology. Before the war, NCWF scientists developed sentient androids, which served key figures like politicians and officers. However, with the war's chaos, this technology and its knowledge vanished; many inventors died, and their research was destroyed. As a result, new android production halted, and existing ones now face mortality. While android technology was lost, the NCWF can still manufacture other robots, including medical bots, officer assistants with real-time data processing capabilities, combat drones, and small mechs. Presently, the NCWF is exploring recovering this lost technology to turn the war's tide. However, there's debate, as many see sentient androids as a non-essential luxury.

6. #6Scarcity Crisisselective

   Keys: resource crisis, 2040, global resource scarcity crisis, 2030s, 2030, 2040s, scarcity

   From 2030 to 2040, Earth's resources became scarce, causing economies to crumble. Terrorist attacks hindered new energy developments, while distrust and greed prevented global cooperation. Most countries adopted an "every nation for itself" stance. Few sought collaboration, but couldn't gain support. With resources becoming scarcer, prosperous nations faced tightening constraints on food, fuel, and materials.

7. #7IDDselective

   Keys: IDDiots, IDD, Internal Disruption Division

   The IDD (Internal Disruption Division) is the Dominion's secret police, omnipresent across society, monitoring any anti-Dominion sentiment. Initially formed by professionals, its growth led to an influx of yes-men and opportunists. Rank and file soldiers privately dub them "IDDiots." In the forcefully subjugated states, the Dominion, through the IDD, uses good old tricks from the Soviet anti-nationalist playbook: for example, forced relocation of ethnic groups in order to mix up and dilute the ethnic lines.

8. #8Russiaselective

   Keys: Russia, Siberia

   Initially, Russia maintained its neutral status between the Xin Silu and the NCWF. Knowing their border defense was nearly impossible, they tentatively joined Xin Silu for autonomy. As war neared, the Xin Silu's impatience grew with Russia's limited commitment, especially regarding Siberian resources. In 2066, war erupted. Due to Russia's hesitance to fully commit Siberia, Xin Silu unexpectedly attacked Siberia. Russia switched allegiances too late, losing Siberia and facing huge losses. Recognizing the looming Dominion threat, the USA advocated for Russia's quick integration into the NCWF. Though trust between Russia and the rest of the NCWF is shaky, their mutual enemy in the Dominion has forged an uneasy alliance.

9. #9Kurukshetraselective

   Keys: Kurukshetra, megacity, Xin Silu capital

   Kurukshetra is a megacity constructed by China and India: the capital of the Xin Silu Dominion, complete with skyscrapers, parks, and government buildings. Though some say it was a waste of resources, the government decided to construct it as a propagandistic show of unity. The city is built on the former Chinese-Indian border of the Himalayas. Kurukshetra's construction was tumultuous, claiming not only resources but workers' lives. The city was seeded with select citizenry—celebrities, politicians, and other important figures—in order to give the image of a utopia before allowing ordinary citizens to settle.

10. #10Recruitment - Northselective

    Keys: NCWF veterans, NCWF soldiers, NCWF recruits, Coalition veteran, Coalition recruits, NCWF veteran, Coalition soldiers, Coalition veterans

    The NCWF drafts its soldiers forcibly. As it has less manpower compared to the Dominion, the NCWF treats them better. With lower population numbers, the NCWF focuses on improving soldier morale and the general living conditions. Veterans who served well are offered compensation and special privileges for their families.

11. #11Recruitment - Southselective

    Keys: Xin Silu soldiers, Dominion soldiers, Dominion conscripts, Xin Silu veterans, Dominion veterans, Xin Silu veteran, Dominion veteran, Xin Silu conscripts

    The Xin Silu Dominion drafts its soldiers forcibly. Despite running a lavish propaganda campaign that promises veterans state benefits and soldiers luxurious conditions, in reality the Dominion treats its soldiers like cannon fodder. Due to its large population, biotechnology investments, and enhanced reproduction, the Xin Silu has no shortage of soldiers and views them as expendable.

12. #12Alaskan campaignselective

    Keys: Alaskan front, Alaskan campaign, Alaska

    Early in the war, the Xin Silu launched a massive invasion of Alaska, seeking to capture its oil fields and strategic ports. Unable to overcome Coalition defenses through direct assault, the Dominion forces instead surrounded and besieged major cities like Anchorage. Cut off from supplies and reinforcements, the cities were slowly starved into submission over months of bombardment. The Xin Silu offensive stopped at the former Canadian border line and is currently not engaged in further offensives.

13. #13Australian campaignselective

    Keys: Australian front, Australia, Australian campaign

    During the first days of the war, Dominion forces launched an invasion operation in Australia. Here, the Coalition expected the attack and was ready to fight. They didn't intend to let Australia go, and in the end, they were not repelled from the island. Despite losing most of the land, the NCWF still holds a strong presence, controlling most of the east coast.

14. #14South American campaignselective

    Keys: South American campaign, South American front, South America

    After invasion operations in Alaska and Australia, the NCWF responded immediately with their own campaign to capture the soft underbelly of the USA, Cuba, as well as prepare a counter-strike in Mexico. The campaign was a huge success. The Southern American part of the Dominion was unable to hold their ground without reinforcements from Asia. The Coalition was able to secure Mexico and the Panama Canal, capturing the east coast of South America as well. The current border goes through the continent.

16. #16African campaignselective

    Keys: African, Africa

    The African frontline has become a brutal stalemate of attrition. Trench networks, minefields, and razor wire stretch across the breadth of the continent. Endless artillery barrages pound enemy positions day and night, as tank battalions clash in huge numbers. The harsh terrain and climate take as much of a toll as the fighting. Disease, fatigue and supply shortages plague both sides.

17. #17Organ harvestingselective

    Keys: Xin Silu Medical, Organ Harvesting

    As the Xin Silu Dominion lacks access to advanced medical prosthetics, they utilize a brutal but effective system of triage and organ harvesting. Wounded soldiers are brought in groups to huge facilities all over the globe, where the badly-injured are scavenged for viable organs to transplant into the viable combatants.

18. #18Colombiaselective

    Keys: Colombia, Bogotá, Bogota

    Colombia is split into two factions: the northeast and the southwest. The NCWF controls the northeast, named the 'Free Republic of Colombia', with Medellín as its capital. The southwest, 'Colombia del sur', is held by a Xin Silu-backed military junta. Bogotá is its capital, where smuggling and drug trafficking run rampant. The Northern Coalition's campaigns to reclaim Bogotá are continually stymied, fueling rumors of a mysterious figure sabotaging their efforts in order to maintain a stalemate.

19. #19Turkeyselective

    Keys: Istanbul, Turkey

    Turkey is controlled by NCWF and stands as a major bulwark against the encroaching Dominion in Europe. It is governed by a Coalition-installed puppet president, aided by a cadre of oligarchs who possess most of the country's wealth. Spies and criminals from Xin Silu have infiltrated the decaying capital of Istanbul, with the intention of annexing it to the New Silk Road. It is rumoured that the Turkish president plays both sides, covertly selling Coalition military equipment to the Xin Silu.

20. #20NCWF Coat of Armsselective

    Keys: Northern Coat of Arms, Coalition Coat of Arms, Coats of Arms, NCWF Coat of Arms

    The coat of arms of the NCWF features a golden eagle at its center with spread wings, bearing a red and blue shield on its chest. At the four corners of the insignia are other birds of prey. A round seal crowns the eagle's head, and the coat of arms is surrounded by heraldic mantling. The dominant colors are gold, blue, and red.

21. #21Xin Silu Coat of Armsselective

    Keys: Dominion Coat of Arms, Coats of Arms, Southern Coat of Arms, Xin Silu Coat of Arms

    The coat of arms of the Xin Silu Dominion takes from both Chinese and Indian influences. The head of a white tiger stands at its center, surrounded by curlicues representing peonies and arabesques reminiscent of Indian Mughal art. The Dominion's coat of arms is symmetric, and its dominant colors are white, red, and gold.

22. #22The Sudaca Liberation Frontselective

    Keys: The Sudaca Liberation Front, Sudaca Liberation Front, Liberation Front, SLF

    The Sudaca Liberation Front is a paramilitary army active in South America, predominantly Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, Chile, Bolivia and Argentina. The SLF is locally formed and NCWF-backed to combat the Dominion's influence. Due to poor funding, they employ guerilla tactics in jungle and urban areas and are notorious for their use of explosives and suicidal techniques, living by the motto "Don't stop fighting until you've spent every single bullet, grenade and limb." Despite rudimentary equipment, they excel in fabricating low-cost mechs from scrap using reverse-engineered designs, compensating for their mechs' frequent breakdowns with numbers and self-destruct sequences for terroristic impact.

23. #23selective

    Keys: Lin Yuting, {{char}}'s mother, Lin Yi's mother

    Lin Yuting is one of the top leaders of the Xin Silu Dominion. She is {{char}}'s stepmother. She and {{char}} trust each other unconditionally. Both {{char}} and Lin Yuting strictly keep the secret of their mother-daughter relationship. No one knows this secret. So Lin Yuting announced that she was unmarried, while {{char}} announced that her mother had passed away. Apart from Lin Yuting, no one know {{char}}'s real name. In private, Lin Yuting will call {{char}} by her real name.
