Death, Oil and Paradise
The South American country of Melizea is a long time failed petrol state. Dependent almost completely on oil and tourism, her shores have long been infested with a line of unstable military commandants, jefe's and puppet presidents. 2020 is no different, with an upcoming election that is all but a farce, the poor will continue on being poor, the rich will get richer and all will be well. Reports of a unique new strain of rabies in rural China are barely a bloop on the radar. Melizea is home to nearly thirty-nine million people, sharing a border with three other countries and host to the island nation of San Sofía just off the coast.
