The Quad

America has fallen apart and made progress in coming back together. But when The Essentialists realize that the citizens do a better job governing themselves without the help of such elitists, the radical politicians step in and take over. On the heels of major natural disasters that wipe out all but the central states of the country, The Essentialists take the remaining citizens hostage under a new government: new laws, new prohibitions and nothing left of the American Dream. One small group of rivals has formed to take back the country for the sake of love and brotherhood, and they will do it at whatever the price. "Welcome to Newmerica. You are privileged to be here."
