Description LORE TIMELINE
  • 2028 Primaries: With stagnating approval ratings for Harris and alienation widening between progressives and centrist caucuses, the Republicans had a fresh start which comprises Abbott, Crenshaw, DeSantis, Noem, Öz, Stefanik, and Youngkin competing for the August nomination as they raced to win other state's primaries through gaining support from fellow delegates. For the Democrats, it was a chaotic starter when other candidates seeks better alternatives and other promises than Harris herself when they are vying to unseat Harris from seeking re-election, although a slowly developing fissures in the Democratic and Republican parties are slowly emerging in the years of post-Trump climate as the process of 2008-28 Long Realignment of both parties was influenced by globalization, economic stress, changing social atittudes, and emerging centers of the economy which would determine the fate of the primaries, whoever will gain support from the larger public will likely to have nominate for the said parties.
  • 2028 Sino-American standoff: Over time, a worsening diplomatic situation slowly escalates as numerous Chinese patrol fleets and American naval fleets of the Seventh Fleet had collided with each other was a remarkable highlights of the 2028 Taiwan Strait incident, the place of flashpoint has been the source of contention and geopolitical Fulda Gap where two superpowers regularly engaged in soft confrontation has turned into a potential naval battle. China has long been pursuing the means of 'reunification' against the prosperous and democratic Taiwan where Chinese are attempting to seek methods of disinformation, electoral interference, exercises, and intimidating threats in an attempt to prevent the Taiwanese from pursuing independence, which Beijing furiously dislikes the idea. With tensions spreading further into whatever remains of the Russian Federation, a confrontation is on the horizon when trios of Japanese, South Korean, and American forces began patrolling over the Sea of Japan as Chinese aggression continues to take hold when rumors of PLA officers planning to help the National Salvation Government and remnants of the Russian Federation by 'occupying' Primorye/Outer Manchuria and multiple clashes between the Taiwanese and Americans vs the Chinese is what they expected to turn the crisis into boiling point. At last moment, the Chinese fighters refuse to attack U.S. naval fleet and a new diplomatic breakthrough is brokered.

    In the aftermath, the Republicans would harden enough the aggressive foreign policy against the Chinese while blamming Harris administration for not 'taking' retaliatory stance. The inconclusive diplomatic crises had avoided a potential and catastrophic conflict, but it costed Harris presidency which led to her approval rating falling into 41% ahead of tough re-election battle.
  • 2028 presidential elections: With Harris approval rating fumbles as well as alienation among the progressive ranks, the Republican Party is slowly strengthening their advantages as Youngkin had been using the careful strategy of campaigning with the disillusioned voters even as the American economy has taken a sharp hit due to the 2028 Sino-American standoff and promises of an aggressive and hardline foreign policy which disillusioned warhawks and Democratic supporters who blamed Harris for lack of her action on economic problems and disastrous policies had finally generated the higher chances enough to unseat Harris from the presidency. On September and October where presidential debates was scheduled to host is where Harris and Youngkin had exchanged their responses to questions regarding the domestic and international matters as well as his advantage to attack her verbally for 'ineffective' solutions to the economy and lackluster response during the standoff with China.

    As Youngkin receives an overall support, even the last remaining neoconservatives and Harris gaining the advice from Obama to reach out to the youth voters in trying to vote for her re-election chances. On November 7th, her fate was sealed when she lost her re-election bid to the Republican, a middle-aged candidate who would soon take months before embarking on his journey into the oval office.

    This is what my plan on my own project that I want to make through inspirations on scifi and cyberpunk tropes, predictions, and then Collaborative Future of the World, the Next Chapters of History, and historical parallelism would make my mood compulsive to create this one.
