[@The Nexerus] Thanks for the option :) but I prefer something like this, skip the whole blasted out ruins and rebuilding bit and take a good look on how a restored world and it's new history.

If that's your goal, why even bother having it take place on Earth? And if the whole point is for the world to be completely reconstituted, why and how are almost all nations just weirdly politically structured, imperialist versions of the modern day nation-states? This seems more like alternate history but in the future, rather than a post-apocalypse.
