After Doomsday
The nuclear winter lasted between October 1962 and March 1963. A nuclear summer then lasted between April 1963 and September 1964. A minor famine and a urban cholera outbreak hit the region during late 1963 and early of 1964. Many refugees arrived from Campobasso and Benevento. Some refugees from Naples, France, Germany and Hungary also arrived at this time.
Lazio, Tuscany and Umbra's military authorises declared martial law and managed to organise and maintain a refugee community, but radiation would be a major killer in the early years.
The Fascist Rome city Tenente Colonnello (Lieutenant colonel) Antonio Kraxi staged a coup in the Lazio military region in late 1964. The Neo-Fascists soon restored order and defeated local criminal gangs, communists and Mafia outfits.
1965-1974
The greater part of Tuscany and Umbra joined them in early 1965, and thus the Neo-Roman Empire was born. Then Ravenna and Lucca made friendly contact with them in late 1967. The present borders were set in place during 1974-1979.
Fist Contact
The other Italian states, Slovenia, Monte Negro, San Marino, Malta and Tunisia were discovered between 1965 and 1969. It's principle ally, the Fascist military dictatorship Spain was found in 1975.
The Journeys of Discovery
1975-1989
The Neo-Romans, Port of Salerno, Milan and Bonavatino both formed good relations with the former Libyan states in 1979 and imported Fezzan oil since 1982. None of them love the mafia states of Scilly, Territory of Calabria and Napoli.
The failed Tuscan, Crecchio and Abruzzio anarchist rebellions of 1990-91
1992-1997
10 people were killed and several and many houses were destroyed in Florence on August 1st, 1997. The quake was estimated at 5.8 magnitude and was centred just near Florence, where a 5.2 magnitude tremor had killed 7 10 days earlyer.
1997-2001
The Duchy of Lucca, Rome, Revenna, Sardinia, Port of Salerno, Republic of Campobaso, Province of Ferrara ,Duchy of Modena and Reggio and Stratocracy of Benevento became close allies since the mid 1990's and founded the Italian Alliance on MAy 1999.
Present day
Shortly after the Richter Scale 4.5 earthquake of 4th June 2002, which damaged many homes near Rome and Pisa, some of the communes and municipalities in Lazio adopted a policy which contributed state money to citizens willing to make their homes more resistant to seismic and volcanic activity.
A spy from the southern, Mafia run, Territory of Calabria, was hung in Sienna, during the May of 2008, after leaking government secret prototype gun design to the Mafia.
Neo-Roman forces have served in the Spanish civil war 2010.
The 2009 L'Aquila earthquake occurred at 3:32 local time (1:32 UTC) on 6 April 2009, and was rated 5.8 on the Richter scale by local Neo-Roman authorities. Its epicentre was near L'Aquila, the capital of Abruzzo, which together with surrounding villages suffered most damage. There have been several thousand foreshocks and aftershocks up to December 2009, more than thirty of which had a Richter magnitude greater than 3.5. The earthquake was felt throughout the empire, Lucca, Campobasso, Napoli and San Marino. 348 people are known to have died across the region, including 318 in the empire itself. Aid flows came from may places icluding it's long standing allies Spain, Catalonia, Campobasso, Lucca, Benevento and the Republic of Ireland and the Isle of Man.
