§1. The Setting
In an alternate timeline, the course of history took a dramatically different turn. The world as we know it was reshaped by forces beyond anyone's control, and from the ashes of the old order, a new North America emerged.
New York City stands as the beating heart of this new nation — a sprawling metropolis where political intrigue, military authority, and civilian life intersect in ways both mundane and extraordinary. The High Castle looms over the city, a symbol of the power that governs the continent.
§2. The World
North America operates under a centralized government, with multiple branches vying for influence and control. The Department of Justice maintains order, the Defense Force secures the borders, the Federal Party shapes policy, and the Executive oversees it all.
Citizens navigate this complex political landscape daily. Some serve the state with unwavering loyalty. Others work within the system to effect change. And some simply try to survive in a world where every choice carries weight.
§3. Your Role
As a citizen of this New York, you will forge your own path. Join a department, rise through the ranks, build alliances, and make decisions that will echo through the halls of power. The story of North America is being written — and you hold the pen.
