Flagship Universe Timeline

Global Divide Timeline

A canon-based progression through the rise of the GWO, the academy era, Ryu's defection, and the war that follows.

Phase 01

Ruined Earth, 2050

By 2050, Earth has become desolate and tightly controlled, with privilege reserved for the elite and survival reduced to obedience.

Phase 02

The GWO Academy Era

Inside the academy, young cadets are indoctrinated, numbered, and trained under brutal discipline to serve the Global World Order.

Phase 04

GWO Mobilizing

After Nikko, Hiro rises within the GWO, the Resistance regroups, and the struggle for the remaining Syphons becomes central to survival.

Phase 05

Project New Horizon

The war widens around the GWO's long-term plan to cleanse the planet and reshape humanity, pushing the conflict far beyond a single battlefield.

Worldbuilding Expansion

Factions, Systems & Power Structures

The flagship universe is driven by authoritarian control, academy indoctrination, hidden energy systems, and the Resistance fighting to preserve humanity.

Command Power

Global World Order

Born from within the former United Nations, the GWO rules by fear, military force, and absolute obedience across the remains of Earth.

Training Structure

Military Academy

The academy turns teenagers into numbered soldiers through rigid schedules, punishment, surveillance, and indoctrinated loyalty.

Counterforce

Resistance

Led through hidden bases and surviving cells, the Resistance opposes GWO control while protecting the last resources that can power their fight.

World Engine

Syphons & New Horizon

Syphons power the war from beneath the surface, while Project New Horizon reveals the GWO's plan to erase the old world and remake humanity.
