Part 1/9:

The Rise of a Militaristic Earth: A Future Under Federation Rule

In a dystopian future, Earth is under the tyrannical control of a militaristic regime known as the Global Federation of Earth, which has risen to power following the ousting of democracy by war veterans. The Federation strictly regulates citizenship, bestowing voting rights and the privilege of procreation only upon those who enlist in the military, known as the Mobile Infantry. This seemingly altruistic call to arms is motivated by humanity's ongoing war against a race of highly evolved insectoid creatures known as the Arachnids, or "bugs." The urgency to combat these aliens intensifies as the bugs have began bombarding Earth with meteorites, necessitating a full-on offensive against their home planet, Kandathu.
