Zurga Patriots QnA
Meteor Mayhem
The course of history as we know it in our own 'Real Life World' suffered a chaotic cataclysmic chain of events on an 'Alternate Earth'.
In the early 1890s, what seemed to be a harmless heavenly phenomenon of curiously glittering meteor showers, became a deadly destructive force that forever changed both the landscape, as well as the course of history, as we know it.
By the mid 1890s, this Alternate Earth was pummeled beyond recognition as countries and even continents were drastically altered and disappeared from the planet's surface.
These inexplicable meteor showers repeatedly bombarded North America, Canada and Alaska until the hidden fault lines far below the Earth's surface caused the Alaskan land mass to be swallowed up by the merciless waters of the Bering Sea!
Northern Canada also disappeared beneath the icy waves, churned by the merciless meteor showers; on a line to the north, as we know it today, below the Northwest Territory, across the top of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, covering about half of the Hudson Bay.
Quebec, Labrador and Newfoundland were hit so hard that those land masses disappeared from off the face of this Alternate Earth, as did the land masses to the north.
Although these mysterious meteor showers bombarded Greenland and Iceland until they too disappeared; they inexplicably missed the British Isles, while hitting Norway, Sweden, Finland and Northern Russia; until those land masses disappeared from view beneath the waves of churning chaos and destruction.
All of Kazakhstan, Mongolia, North Korea and Japan were repeatedly struck by shower after shower, month after month, year after year, until these land masses were swallowed by the swirling waters of the earthquakes and tidal waves that were repeatedly triggered by these mysterious meteor showers.
The shifting fault lines that reacted to the earthquakes and tidal waves resulted in all of Antarctica being obliterated, all of Australia being obliterated and all of the Middle East being obliterated and vanishing from view beneath the waves of their respective oceans.
India, Philippines, Thailand, Burma, Malaysia, New Zealand, Indonesia and other land masses including most of China and all of Iran, Pakistan and Afghanistan also disappeared from view.
All of South America disappeared, as did all of South Africa; although Venezuela lasted much longer than its neighbors to the south, before disappearing beneath the turbulent waves of the Atlantic Ocean.
Repeated earthquakes caused Central America and part of Southern Mexico to vanish beneath the ever growing volumes of water, as the oceans around the globe sought more space.
Central America, Southern Mexico, Cuba, Haiti and the Bahamas were swallowed by the waves; as were the Hawaiian Islands.
The devastation reached the shores of Morocco, Algeria, Libya and Egypt; but those countries were spared from complete obliteration.
Germania rose to power through what began as humanitarian and scientific efforts to stem the rising tide of chaos and uncertainty sweeping across Europa.
These mysterious meteor showers were followed by two full years of periodic 'Cleansing Rains' that Oxygenated the Earth's atmosphere.
At the turn of the century, Professor Johann Zurga, a noted and well respected Germania scientist, became the foremost authority on what was to become known as Zurga Rays, that were unleashed as rays and unknown particles into this Alternate Earth's atmosphere.
He was instrumental in heading the 'Global Documentation' of a sudden rise in Super Humans around the remaining 'Known World', classified as 'Zurgas', from the bombardment and unleashing of 'Zurga Rays' into the Earth's atmosphere.
By 1910, Germania was harnessing the powers of these Zurgas to secure Germania as 'The World Power', culminating in the First World War breaking out across Europa in May of 1914.
Readers can surmise from the preceding information, that there was No Japan to attack a Now Vanished Hawaii at the onset of World War II, as noted in our own 'Real Life World History'.
Therefore, on this Alternate Earth, the struggle for World Supremacy by using the 'Weapons of Normal Humans' was beginning to evolve, as Zurgas and Supras joined the ranks of the military in the struggle for World Supremacy between the forces of Germania, Brittania and what we know in our own 'Real Life World' as America.

Short Synopsis of Back Story
Wilhelm 'Willem' or 'Billy' von Wagner is the grandson of Germania Immigrants.
He was born an American in California, but his heavy Germania accent from his Grandparents and Parents caused a lot of taunting and bullying in his early years.
Although his parents and adults call him Willem, he adopted the nickname Billy after 'Billy the Kid' in the western dime novels in his personal quest to be accepted by his peers as an American.
He got involved in street gangs as an effort to show he fit in with the American crowd, getting himself into trouble with the authorities with his 'criminal antics'.
He turned himself in to the FIST recruiters to get his criminal record expunged, but also to prove he is a 'True American', thus adopting the Supra Identity of the American Kid.
