1995 - Dissapointed with the way things are run at Prometheus Labs, Vincent Anderson along with assistants Phineas Frostman, and Medea and Jason Contos, creates Anderson Robotics in Portland, Oregon
1998 - Following more than a decade of strikes and ineffective management, Prometheus Labs closes it's doors with remaining employees joining with Anderson Robotics or other splinter groups, being arrested or killed, or being swept up for employment by the Foundation, GOC, CIA or ORIA
2001-2004 - Various splinter groups from Prometheus Labs are shut down by the Foundation and GOC. Survivors from the groups form one super group known as Atlas Labs lead by Doug Page. Unable to find a head quarters that won't track much attention, they are little more than a myth in the anomalous community for a decade.
2007 - Anderson Robotics is discovered by the Foundation. Due to relatively small size and existence within the Three Portlands, they are able to avoid capture.
2013 - Vincent Anderson manages to discover Atlas Labs and merges the group in to Anderson Robotics and allows them to continue their operations
2014 - Anderson Robotics enters a partnership with Marshall Carter & Dark, allowing Anderson Robotics products to be slowly integrated in to society.
2020 - Atlas Labs renames themselves to Prometheus Labs. Page authrozies production of human and animal cloning along with an experimental fungus known as JeetKun.
2024 - Anderson's body double is captured by a joint Foundation/UIU operation. The real Anderson manages to stay underground and continue to expand AR.
2025 - 2027 - With robotic augmentations becoming more common place, several Anderson Robotic anomalies within Foundation possession are declassified and Anderson Robotics are free to enter the public eye. Prometheus Labs is able to stay underground with the new name, LamprósLife and introduce to themselves as the Scientists Group helping out those who choose to augmentations as well as manufacturing artificial lifeforms
2030 - JeetKun fungus fully developed and celebrated as first man made fungus. As part of a contract with the Foundation, over 97% of the JeetKun samples are kept by the Foundation with weaker samples kept in custody by Lamprós.
2031 - Anderson and Lamprós use JeetKun as a way to help augmentation users cope with their new body parts. It proves a success and skyrockets Anderson Robotics to number 13 on the Fortune 700
2032 - In secret, Anderson Rpbotics begins to roll out their line of augmented weapons and melee and projectile upgrades for existing augmentations that had been in development since 2021
2033 - The Iberian-Morrocan War begins and lasts for only eight months. It is notable as being the first war to use augmented weapons from Anderson Robotics. Lamprós collect the corpses of deceased soldiers in secret to prepare for a human cloning and JeetKune reaction experiment.
2035 - After three decades of development, Anderson Robotics releases LAIN. The world's first artificial intelligence. Six months later, they develop the Ex Machina protocol which is an emergency shut down protocol in the instance that LAIN were to go route
2036 - JeetKun is discovered to have side affects on it's users that while non fatal, are often botherances for the user such as headaches, nausea, heart burn and acid reflux. In response, Lamprós develops Gua-Zhang to counteract the side affects
2037 - The US-Mexican War takes place with the United States losing southern Texas but taking Baja California
2039 - Hurricane Trent strikes Florida leaving 83% of the state underwater. Mass evacuations take place leading to overcrowding and riots in neighboring cities such as Atlanta and New Orleans
2040 - In an attempt to cool the situation in the South, the US government forcefully retakes Southern Texas and annexes some parts of the Coahulia district in Northern Mexico. Due to the lack of augmentation and Lamprós centers in the regions they are not heavily populated. Eventually, the U.S. gives up land when it is overtaken by bandits. The Mexican government refuses to take it back leading to Coahulia being the only part of the world to not be ruled by a governmental body.
2043 - Lamprós discovers that Gua-Zhang is a bacteria that remains dormant in the body for over a decade before mutating and causing side affects in 1/6 people. Despite efforts to keep it under wraps, a whistle blower reveals this information to the public causing global riots as those who took Gua-Zhang are unsure if they are the ones who will die due to it.
2044 - The UN allies with AR and Lamprós to deal with the riots. While the riots are eventually cooled, they still occur occasionally mainly in smaller cities such as Nice and San Diego. They then develop a two year plan to divide the world when Gua-Zhang mutates
2046 - Gua-Zhang mutates. The UN begins it's plan to divide the world in to three separate regions. The division is as follows
Pax: sections of the world not as affected by Gua-Zhang's mutation. Around 5% to 20% of the population is affected by the mutation in these regions. Areas within these regions end up becoming very wealthy. Regions included are the Eastcoast United states, North Africa, Eastern Asia excluding Japan, Northern and Eastern Europe, and Central America. Cities include New York, Boston, Moscow, Cairo, Hong Kong, Seoul and Panama City.
Infirmi: Area affected by Gua-Zhang's mutation heavily, but still manage to hang on to civilization. Around 21% to 52% of the population is affected by the mutation in these regions. Areas within these regions are often lower class and have a proportionately higher ammount of crime than the Pax region. Areas included here are Japan, Western, Central and Southern Europe, the Middle East, the Spanish speaking regions of South America and Southern Africa. Cities include Paris, Tokyo, Bahrain, Jerusalem, Berlin and Buenos Aires.
VOID: Regions affected too strongly by Gua-Zhang's mutation to be restored. Around 53% to 100% of the population is affected by the mutation. These regions are only populated by Exmilitary nomads and bandit tribes avoiding Interpol attention. Areas included are Brazil, the Indian subcontinent, the British Isles, midwestern and western United States, Central Africa, Australia and Central Asia. While no cities are officially recognized, London is a place where bandits often stay when not on the move.
