[@Turboshitter] New Vegas gives you quite a bit on what happened in the first two games, but here's a quick summary:

-Guy falls into a vat of hyper-evolutionary-virus, becomes a mass of flesh that speaks like Microsoft Sam.
-Guy builds supermutant army.
-Vault dweller walks out and fucks his shit up, then retires to Oregon to bang his hot tribal wife.
-Years pass.
-Enclave attacks the west coast because there's too many fuckin' muties. (Not the real reason but close enough)
-Vault dweller's son is sent out to look for some shit, his village gets torched by Darth Vader clone.
-Son (Now called the Chosen One, pretentious fuck) infiltrates Enclave HQ and murders the president.
-Darth Vader ripoff attacks
-"LOL YOU HAD DIPLO BUILD? TOO BAD LOSER, GET FUCKT."
-Darth Vader ripoff ruins your shit over and over until you eventually beat him and he turns into a puddle.
-Town that Vault Dweller saved in the first game is now NCR.
-Chosen One fucks off back home and uses the Geckomagiggy to bring it back.
-Chosen One leads village for indeterminate amount of time before it gets nommed by the NCR.
-New Vegas happens.

Ahhhh good to know. As someone who brought the people's hammer down on the savages of the Legion in the battle for Hoover Dam, it fills my heart with joy to hear the story of the proud New California Republic's birth recanted.
