[hider=The One] [center] [color=00aeef]Nation Name:[/color]:The One [color=00aeef]Government Form[/color]: [sub]The One[/sub] [color=00aeef]Demographics[/color]: [sub][url=https://i.pinimg.com/originals/0f/05/17/0f0517da3485d610e11f452a9fa0e4c2.jpg?width=404&height=468]The One[/url] A human who cloned himself. Main One groups: The One once had a name, each of his names define a group or caste of the One. James - Hunters, Crafters, Soldiers; those that manage to survive a few years are "elevated" to the name Grant. William - Food mostly but also those that venture into the most dangerous locations. An "old" William is very rare. Grant - Diplomats, Scientists, Leaders. The "face" of the One. Any interaction with the One would have at least a Grant present. While they all share all knowledge they get and any William can do a Grant’s job or the other way around, age sets them apart. A William would reach a maximum age of 2, a James can go above that and live up to 10 years before becoming a Grant and eventually dying of old age or bullets or whatever else. The Many : Led by the Old One, the oldest clone alive. They are those who rejected the unity of the One and have since tried to be different from the others, praising their uniqueness.

Covered on one side by a burning wasteland which is constantly under temperatures of +50C and on the other side, a frozen tundra with temperatures between -100 and -500 at its coldest point. Split in the middle by the ruins of an ancient alien city surrounded by a huge dome.[/sub] [color=39b54a]History[/color]: [sub]As soon as the colony ship went through the Gateway, it encountered a powerful EMP field generated by numerous unidentifiable spheres. The ship crash landed on the nearest planet. A good number of colonists died even before they stepped out of the ship. Soon the colonists realized that they wouldn't be able to survive on the planet due to the very high/very low temperatures of the planet's climate. Luckily the ship landed close to what seemed to be the ruins of a city that stretched from one side to the other of the plane, splitting the planet into two halves and thus' they decided to settle the ancient city. Not much remained of it but buildings with no recognisable tech. Food and resources were scarce and everyday people would starve or die of a number of strange illnesses. Soon, all would die. In-fighting killed the rest. Eventually only one person remained. Using the bodies of his fellow colonists and refined urine/snow, he had enough to live on his own. Understanding that he will go crazy and that he might be the only human alive, he devoted himself to one purpose. Make sense of the alien technology in the hopes of finding a way off the planet. 10 years after Arrival, he managed to find a massive underground that still had power and he knew that he finally found what he was looking for. Inside he found hundreds of ultra-advanced cloning vats and the spheres that brought down their ship in the first place. After months of trial and error, he succeeded in cloning himself. No longer alone, he made more and more of himself. After almost 300 years, the ancient alien city is now repopulated with only one person - 4 billion times. [/sub] [color=39b54a]Culture and Society[/color]: [sub]The society of The One is easy to understand. Every clone is an individual but they are all the same with the same likes and dislikes where one is working for the betterment of everyone as they [b]are[/b] everyone.[/sub] [quote=The One] In our own words, we record this in the event of a cataclysmic failure of the Dome. Whoever you may be that hears this, hear our story. Understand who we were, are and potentially, will be. We came on this planet almost 300 years ago from a far away planet called Earth, there were more of us all aboard one ship that was meant to be humanity's last bastion. During the first few years, everyone died. Diseases, in-fighting, the elements and the rest from starvation. Everyone but One. Me, them, [b]us[/b]. I've managed to revive part of the alien city that you found this recording in and with the technology found here, I became we. One mind, 4 billion times. You'd wonder how we were able to survive all these years? Simple. One serves everyone. One is not one but more. One dies, so that the others live. One doesn't feel pain, how would he? When his mind is not his mind but [b]our[/b] mind. The Glowy-Ones and ourselves is our food, the ice of the Frozen part of the world is our water. We don't need more than we provide to ourselves. What one experiences, all experience. We have explored 40% of the city and there are still places where we haven't managed to explore. Everyday, we die to find the answer to the one question we had since the beginning. What happened here? Why did it happen? Will it happen again?

Ultra Advanced Cloning Vats allow a full grown human to be made in 48 hours.[*] 2. The Dome - a huge structure meant to resist the worst environments. [*] 3. Human-Batteries - All the major tech of The One will be sustained by human batteries which use their bodies to power them up. Depending on the power needed, the number of human batteries needed can be up to 1 million (for the cloning vats) [/list] [color=f7941d]Military Overview[/color]: [sub] The One have no need to have a trained military as in-fighting is considered a stage of mental disease for the One. [/sub] [color=f7941d]Infrastuctre & more[/color]: [sub] 1. Food - In a part of the city, [url=https://getwallpapers.com/wallpaper/full/c/2/3/1174611-neon-mushroom-wallpaper-1920x1080-retina.jpg] glowing mushroom [/url] grew which is being used as a base to clone it as many times it was needed to feed the One with a combination of themselves as protein. 1.1. Water? One side of their world is frozen. After you pass on through the first thousands that died to make it less-poisonous for the human body, that's it and the even bigger number of those that die due to the extreme temperatures, you're sorted. 2. Electricity - Themselves, hooking up thousands of Ones and using their energy to sustain the cloning vats. 3. Materials like clothes and the sorts? Leather clothes. Where do they get the leather from? You guessed it, themselves. Not that they really need that many clothes. They all look the same, it's like they'd watch themselves in the mirror. Tools? Bones. Would the bones break? Sure, but they've got an almost unlimited amount of bones. The list goes on. Common terms : Old One - The oldest of the One. He is the only one which refuses to update their information as a sense of simulating life as it would've been pre-cloning. Immortalis - also called Bezians by the ECU. They were a highly advanced civilization that mysteriously disappeared. The Circle of One, the name of the city in which the One live, is a ruin. Besides the Vaults where the One discovered the cloning vats and the black pyramids, nothing else is undamaged. In some parts of the city there will be automatic defences (drones, machine guns etc) which protect it. That's the reason the One never explored all of their city.

The city is surrounded by a huge dome that acts as a defence against the terrible living conditions on the planet.
