august 1st 2029 in a political rally in copenhagen a former psychopatic lawbringer tries to kill Karl-johan and shoots him in the chest 3 times and in the head once. the people are chocked as they belive he is dead. he is immideatly taken to a hospital with a ambulance the staff of the ambulance are chocked when the president rises up again after just 5 minutes. seemingly unharmed. in the hospital the doctor immideatly notes that he is in matter of fact a machine.
the incident is told in news all around the globe. rising much attention and wonder.
...and Consternation. Imagine if it was revealed that Obama was a robot, there would be protests by both parties.
How is Scandinavia dealing with this. Is Karl-Johan will have to make a statement, will there be an emergency election?
Just for laughs:
August 2, 2029: Conspiracy theorists across the political spectrum accuse President Pershing of being a robot. No reason is ever given why the claim is made. Most of the United States ignores the stupidity.
Also on this day, Secretary of State Bruce Willis announces that the American CALRAIL system is now more or less complete. As Secretary Willis is often regarded as the political father of the system, Congress votes unanimously to officially name the system the Walter Bruce Willis National System of Interstate and Defense Railways in his honor.
August 23, 2029: A new state is admitted into the United States. In Agana, President Pershing attends the admission of Pacifica as the 57th state of the Union.

So, we ending everything in 2035, or shall we extend it until December 31, 2039? Honestly, I'd hate to leave five years of the last decade unfilled. After that, we can end this timeline because, otherwise, we'd be at it till 2011 OTL.
Finland's not in the EDC anymore? Also, the PA still owns Sri Lanka according to the 2020 map. I don't recall a PD that states it jumped to Argentina. Nice work though. I've always liked these maps.

Thank you Ze Kaiser. I agree we should end it in 2039, just so we don't have to deal with a half decade. but the final decision is with Bondoc
whoops. I put blue or green dots to show leanings towards one bloc or another. Sri Lanka was Green because Lorenzetti went to indian states, and I forgot to color Sri Lanka blue again. What is Argentina doing with Antarctica anyway, It's just Ice pretty much, and oil is easier to get from other places
Anyway, since this may be important
1. President Ashley Pershing
2. Vice President Elaine Tesla-Bush (Paragon of Corporate Interests)
3. Speaker of the House (A Michael Moore Socialist)
4. Senate President Pro Tempore (Most Senior Republican, probably over 100 and a Dewey Republican)
5. Secretary of State Bruce Willis (in Dubai with Pershing)
6. Secretary of Treasury Stephen Wynn
7. Secretary of Defense Vladimir Putin
8. Attorney General (A stalwart Pershing Progressive)
9. Secretary of the Interior (Former Republican which bolted to Cheadle's Conservatives in 2028, and caused a minor flap. currently on the outs in the administration)
10. Secretary of Agriculture (Probably a Putin Socialist)
11. Secretary of Commerce Koshi Rikdo
12. Secretary of Labor (Originally a Socialist, but switched to Pershing Progressive in 2024)
13. Secretary of Health (A Liberal of appease calls for bipartisansip)
14. Secretary of Education (A Liberal moderate, who isn't so rabidly sep of church and state)
15. Secretary of Infrastructure and Transportation (A Pershing Progressive)
16. Secretary of Energy Broadcast and Production (A Corporate Republican)
After that it goes to State governors with the most Electoral votes so
CA
TX
NY
FL
PA
IL
I doubt there was a need for a Housing or Welfare cabinet post, especially with no welfare program so it just became Sec of Education, instead of Housing and urban development

The Argentinans goal of bring order to the lawless EUARS was noble, but when it threatened the Pacific Alliance, and took over neutral countries, it went from peacekeeper to tyrant. We of the Russian Empire will not associate with warmongering imperialists, and hearby cancel diplomatic relations with the Argentinan Empire.

"Many times I disagree with my fathers opinions, such as Finland should be built to be a countrywide fortress. i think...finland needs and strong army but maby we should instead of pursuing the impossible goal of having the worlds largest army we should focuse on the skill of the army and the weaponry they use... I also have to disagree with my fathers opinion in the matter that finland should be isolated and produce evrything it needs itself. that might have been possible in the 90's but not in todays world... But for those who think that i don't think my father did anything good. they are WRONG. he did a terific job with building up the infrastructure of this country, railroads, maglev trains, roads, airports, and harbors. he created it now we will have the task of using it and improve it..."

May 16, 2020: Ashley Pershing lands in Yalta, to meet with PM Shkrebneva. Shkrebneva says "I presume you are briefed on the status of the Pacific Alliance's war effort. You are someone who carries the support of not only President Putin, but the entire Pacific Alliance. Castro was a stupid man, bent on conquest, but his successor this..." Pershing listens keenly, but Shkrebneva smiles, "is something Okhrana will keep to itself. What I want to talk to you about is, what is the Pacific Alliance willing to do" <she holds up a Datacard (OTL USB Key)> "for the answer to the Pacific Alliance's most asked question 'What is GHOST?' You have 20 minutes to make your proposal". Pershing crosses her arms, "I predicate any answer I may give under the condition that the information is both accurate and useful, and of course checking the information for authenticity"
Shkrebneva quirks an eyebrow, "No platitudes?" Pershing smirks, "You desire substance more then anything else. The relaxation of the tariffs on Russian plastics, the Pacific Alliance forgiving 350 billion rubles worth of your national debt, and our neutrality regarding Narusegawa and Hongzhi China."
Shkrebneva shakes her head, and places the datacard on the table "No. 18 minutes left "
Pershing sighes, "No on what points?"
Shkrebneva smirks, "Let's see that Stanford educated brain of yours jump through hoops."
Pershing considers for a moment, then a thought strikes her, "Why me? Out of the entire Diplomatic corps of the Pacific Alliance, the Council, and the various foreign secretaries, why me?"
"Perhaps I wanted to meet the next president."
Pershing shakes her head, "No, there's more to it then that. I suspect that you were involved with Argentina and know far more about Argentina's plans and intel then we do."
Shkrebneva adopted a look of mock outrage, "Is the Pacific Alliance accusing me of collaborating with one of its enemies"
Pershing smiled, "Of course not, I am just a senator. Of course I did visit Brussels and Baghdad, on President Putin's behest to gain a coalition"
Shkrebneva frowned "I am quite certain that many parties were angered with you that day."
"It's moot, since Argentina started to occupy Central America, a difficult position, one that you know was unlikely to supply, and difficult to hold." Pershing paused "Will you honestly answer two questions I am about to ask?"
Shkrebneva checks her watch, "16 minutes." See that was all the response she would get, Pershing proceeded.
"What does the Russian Empire want."
"To be the leading economic and military superpower, and be the most powerful nation in Asia."
Pershing nodded, "... and what do you want?"
Shkrebneva simply said, "To win."
Pershing considered for a moment. "I will maintain my previous offer, an offer Russia wants, but not what you want. I propose we play a game of Chess. If I win, you give the Datacard detailing GHOST free of charge. If you win, the deal will stand."
Shkrebneva scoffs "Not much incentive for me."
Pershing smiles, "...Except the satisfaction of knowing that you have beaten the one who outmanuevered your finest diplomats in Brussels and Baghdad"
Shkrebneva considers, then calls for her staff to prepare a board. "Very well Senator Pershing. We have a deal, no digital aids, just our wits and no timelimit. Neither one of us may leave these chairs until checkmate, or one concedes."
The game persisted for 8 hours. At turn 47 it was the end game, and the game was still close. But Pershing stumbled and lost her rook. In 4 more turns Shkrebneva had won. The agreement was reached, and signed by Shkrebneva as PM of the Russian Empire, and Ashley Pershing Appointed Diplomat of the Pacific Alliance to the Russian Empire. Once Pershing leaves with the Datacard, Shkrebneva once more visited the terrace where they played, and is surprised to see two house staff trying to clean Pershing's side of the table. Shkrebneva shoves them asides and sees the following etched into the wood.
47.Qc7+ (or Qd7+)
Shkrebneva utters a storm of profanities, at how Pershing took a dive just for the datacard, and the insult of intentionally losing to her. On the suborbital ride back to DC Pershing writes in her journal, "I don't like to lose either, but I think I won overall. The Pacific Alliance council won't necessarily like it, but for GHOST they would sell Hokkaido."
In Thomas K. Winthrop's Diplomatic History of the World: 2000-2050 published in 2052, he would write, "What Pershing did was nothing short of remarkable at that Chess game. For the first time since Shkrebneva's rise to power, her goals and the goals of Russia were in opposition."
<If anyone is wondering about the plausibility of the above match, I would point out this event from our timeline. The Soviet Union, who were years behind us in jet technology, won a shipment of Jet Engines from Rolls Royce, by winning a game of Billiards with Clement Attlee. Oh and if anyone is curious the chess move Pershing used is what Deep Blue would have countered with if Kasparov made a different move in game 2 in 1997>

Later she wrote in her journal, "Pershing could walk into a room and get a room full of bickering European and Caliphate idiots to agree, and have them put aside a century of bad blood between them for the Pacific Alliance's good and the perceived benefit of the others. If she was Russian I would have made her my foreign minister on the spot, given her the order of merit, and let her write her own paycheck to have her work that magic at the CN." Also on this day, President Putin and Congress establish the Daft. In his web address to the nation, Putin says "If I could have it any other way, I would not be asking for your help, comrades.

Semtember 27, 2028: Secretary Putin breaks his long silence by giving an interview to TIME magazine. In it, Putin says nothing about Heath, but rather, he chews Cheadle out on his naive remarks about the Great American War.
"Mr. Cheadle claims that he would have kept forcing our boys to the bitter end. That is an ignorant claim. Had we forced our comrades to march to Buenos Aires, we would have lost at least three million men. Argentina was becoming a desperate animal, and desperate animals will do anything to survive. I was informed that they were under the mindset that we were attempting to reduce their country to a nuclear waste land, so they were very much becoming this desperate animal.
"Argentina took about fifty million lives with its "limited war" policies, and they still had plenty of fight in them. What if they simply stopped following what little internation law they were following and blew Nicaragua, Coast Rica, and Panama to fine ashes? How more Medinas and Mexico Cities would there have been? How much longer would that war have taken? How many more Nicaragua Massacre's would there have been? How much more of Brazil would have burned? How much more would have Latin America lost? Eventually, Castro's madmen would have dumped everything in their nuclear arsenal on the United States and the Pacific Alliance.
"Unless every other world power had joined our cause, reducing Argentina to a state where it would never harm us again would have taken years and probably several million lives. It could not have been done without serious consequences. The man in charge now is at least a decent man. We did far more by working with the Argentinans to take down Castro's cult of killers then we would have by reducing their country to fine dust. President Pershing saved potentially half a billion lives with her diplomacy, and we now watch Argentina like a hawk, which the Pacific Alliance as a whole failed to during the 2010s.
"What Mr. Cheadle says is indeed an ignorant dream. Yes, we could have reduced Argentina to nothing, but had we done so, we would be living in an era of chaos that would make the Gates Recession look very nice."
September 28, 2028: Putin's comments are very well received (with the exceptions of the obvious radicals) and help shift the political landscape.

The news of the day is that Putin will finally give his endorsement.
As Putin takes the post to make his speech, Sanders notices something odd out of the corner of his eye. His suspiscion is confrimed when somebody in the audience shouts, "He's going to kill the President!"
Faster than he has ever moved in his life, Sanders pushes Putin out of the way just as a brilliant blood red laser streaks across the sky. No more than second later, the laser pierces Sanders' heart, blooding spraying the air and covering the the two Russian Americans on stage.
The Secret Service quickly guns down the assassin, but the damage is done.
After five long minutes of shock, quietly talking with Governor Mendelev, and the Secret Service insisting that he leave, President Putin takes the post once more. He looks at his now blood covered speech and begins,
"Comrades, I came here today to tell you who I would give my blessings to. While I have enjoyed all the cooperation of the Republican party and once again thank them for everything, I must remind the nation that I am a Socialist first and formost. Sadly, the man who was going to get my endorsement, one who has supported me for eight years now, is no longer with us." Putin pauses as he begins to tear up. "Governor Mendelev has informed me that he no longer has the heart to continue campaigning. As of now, there will be no Socialist candidate on the ballot. Picking a replacement would insult Bernie. He did not have to take the shot for me. If I had been the one to die, he would have found himself in a much better position to win the election, as President of the United States, backed by a nation of sympathy. No, instead, Bernie made the ultimate sacrifice.
"However, I came here to endorse somebody, and I will now do so. I give my full support to Senator Pershing. Bernie knew how conflicted I am about this, but I now only have one choice. It would be an insult to everyone I have worked with not to do this." Putin turns to leave, but the microphone picks up one last line.
"If you can hear me Bernie... forgive me."
The audience is still to shocked to do anything as Governor Mendelev and the Secret Service escort President Putin, now sobbing beyond control, away.

February 25, 2020: UK Prime Minister Spencer and U.S. President Putin order the Outer PA Airlift to help the starving Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Canal Zone area. In perhaps the most infamous move of his Presidency, POTUS Putin sits down on national television and begins reading a long list of Argentine cities.

February 26, 2020: PM Lyudmila Shkrebneva of Russia, calls Castro via Videophone, at the same time as Shkrebneva's Foreign Secretary Leonid Kravchuk, reads a statement to the press.

The Argentinans goal of bring order to the lawless EUARS was noble, but when it threatened the Pacific Alliance, and took over neutral countries, it went from peacekeeper to tyrant. We of the Russian Empire will not associate with warmongering imperialists, and hearby cancel diplomatic relations with the Argentinan Empire. During the videophone conference, Castro screams at Shkrebneva, until the Russian prime minister pounds on her desk "Listen you fat little oaf of a man! You went too far. I told you to only take the EUARS, and now you have caused a grand coalition to be aligned not against you but against me! You are lucky I am not sending warwalkers to destroy you right now! OUR ALLIANCE IS OVER!"
February 27, 2010: Infurated at Russia's reefusal to help, General Castro does something very rash.

However 16 nukes are launched.
Targets: Washington DC, Panama City, Dallas, Anchorage, San Francisco, Tokyo, New York City, Brussels, Paris, Berlin, Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kiev, New Mecca, Medina, and Baghdad.
Just after launch was unsuccessful, Now General Lorenzetti of the Argentine armed forces calls the leaders of all 4 other blocs and warn them that in his final moment Castro launched 16 missiles against all their blocs. Lorenzetti has the hope of preventing Argentina's destruction and to fight another day following this warning and show that Castro was now dead. The world leaders are aghast, and instantly leave to handle defenses, except PM Shkrebneva who says to the the new leader of Argentina, "If you live that long" and attends to her own defense. The Seraphim system is pushed to its very limit. The two satellites are able to take down 11 missiles. Russian Missile Defense takes down the three targeted at its nation. Despite a valiant attempt by Seraphim to take down the Medina nuke makes it through and hits.

"Many times I disagree with my fathers opinions, such as Finland should be built to be a countrywide fortress. i think...finland needs and strong army but maby we should instead of pursuing the impossible goal of having the worlds largest army we should focuse on the skill of the army and the weaponry they use... I also have to disagree with my fathers opinion in the matter that finland should be isolated and produce evrything it needs itself. that might have been possible in the 90's but not in todays world... But for those who think that i don't think my father did anything good. they are WRONG. he did a terific job with building up the infrastructure of this country, railroads, maglev trains, roads, airports, and harbors. he created it now we will have the task of using it and improve it..."

May 15, 2020: Russian PM Lyudmila Shkrebneva calls President Putin. "I have a deal for the Pacific Alliance, but I want to talk to Pershing." when questioned why, PM Lyudmila Shkrebneva responded, "I don't want to face a weak negotiator from your state department"
May 16, 2020: Ashley Pershing lands in Yalta, to meet with PM Shkrebneva. Shkrebneva says "I presume you are briefed on the status of the Pacific Alliance's war effort. You are someone who carries the support of not only President Putin, but the entire Pacific Alliance. Castro was a stupid man, bent on conquest, but his successor this..." Pershing listens keenly, but Shkrebneva smiles, "is something Okhrana will keep to itself. What I want to talk to you about is, what is the Pacific Alliance willing to do" <she holds up a Datacard (OTL USB Key)> "for the answer to the Pacific Alliance's most asked question 'What is GHOST?' You have 20 minutes to make your proposal". Pershing crosses her arms, "I predicate any answer I may give under the condition that the information is both accurate and useful, and of course checking the information for authenticity"
Shkrebneva quirks an eyebrow, "No platitudes?" Pershing smirks, "You desire substance more then anything else. The relaxation of the tariffs on Russian plastics, the Pacific Alliance forgiving 350 billion rubles worth of your national debt, and our neutrality regarding Narusegawa and Hongzhi China."
Shkrebneva shakes her head, and places the datacard on the table "No. 18 minutes left "
Pershing sighes, "No on what points?"
Shkrebneva smirks, "Let's see that Stanford educated brain of yours jump through hoops."
Pershing considers for a moment, then a thought strikes her, "Why me? Out of the entire Diplomatic corps of the Pacific Alliance, the Council, and the various foreign secretaries, why me?"
"Perhaps I wanted to meet the next president."
Pershing shakes her head, "No, there's more to it then that. I suspect that you were involved with Argentina and know far more about Argentina's plans and intel then we do."
Shkrebneva adopted a look of mock outrage, "Is the Pacific Alliance accusing me of collaborating with one of its enemies"
Pershing smiled, "Of course not, I am just a senator. Of course I did visit Brussels and Baghdad, on President Putin's behest to gain a coalition"
Shkrebneva frowned "I am quite certain that many parties were angered with you that day."
"It's moot, since Argentina started to occupy Central America, a difficult position, one that you know was unlikely to supply, and difficult to hold." Pershing paused "Will you honestly answer two questions I am about to ask?"
Shkrebneva checks her watch, "16 minutes." See that was all the response she would get, Pershing proceeded.
"What does the Russian Empire want."
"To be the leading economic and military superpower, and be the most powerful nation in Asia."
Pershing nodded, "... and what do you want?"
Shkrebneva simply said, "To win."
Pershing considered for a moment. "I will maintain my previous offer, an offer Russia wants, but not what you want. I propose we play a game of Chess. If I win, you give the Datacard detailing GHOST free of charge. If you win, the deal will stand."
Shkrebneva scoffs "Not much incentive for me."
Pershing smiles, "...Except the satisfaction of knowing that you have beaten the one who outmanuevered your finest diplomats in Brussels and Baghdad"
Shkrebneva considers, then calls for her staff to prepare a board. "Very well Senator Pershing. We have a deal, no digital aids, just our wits and no timelimit. Neither one of us may leave these chairs until checkmate, or one concedes."
The game persisted for 8 hours. At turn 47 it was the end game, and the game was still close. But Pershing stumbled and lost her rook. In 4 more turns Shkrebneva had won. The agreement was reached, and signed by Shkrebneva as PM of the Russian Empire, and Ashley Pershing Appointed Diplomat of the Pacific Alliance to the Russian Empire. Once Pershing leaves with the Datacard, Shkrebneva once more visited the terrace where they played, and is surprised to see two house staff trying to clean Pershing's side of the table. Shkrebneva shoves them asides and sees the following etched into the wood.
47.Qc7+ (or Qd7+)
Shkrebneva utters a storm of profanities, at how Pershing took a dive just for the datacard, and the insult of intentionally losing to her. On the suborbital ride back to DC Pershing writes in her journal, "I don't like to lose either, but I think I won overall. The Pacific Alliance council won't necessarily like it, but for GHOST they would sell Hokkaido."
In Thomas K. Winthrop's Diplomatic History of the World: 2000-2050 published in 2052, he would write, "What Pershing did was nothing short of remarkable at that Chess game. For the first time since Shkrebneva's rise to power, her goals and the goals of Russia were in opposition."
<If anyone is wondering about the plausibility of the above match, I would point out this event from our timeline. The Soviet Union, who were years behind us in jet technology, won a shipment of Jet Engines from Rolls Royce, by winning a game of Billiards with Clement Attlee. Oh and if anyone is curious the chess move Pershing used is what Deep Blue would have countered with if Kasparov made a different move in game 2 in 1997>

Later she wrote in her journal, "Pershing could walk into a room and get a room full of bickering European and Caliphate idiots to agree, and have them put aside a century of bad blood between them for the Pacific Alliance's good and the perceived benefit of the others. If she was Russian I would have made her my foreign minister on the spot, given her the order of merit, and let her write her own paycheck to have her work that magic at the CN." Also on this day, President Putin and Congress establish the Daft. In his web address to the nation, Putin says "If I could have it any other way, I would not be asking for your help, comrades.

Semtember 27, 2028: Secretary Putin breaks his long silence by giving an interview to TIME magazine. In it, Putin says nothing about Heath, but rather, he chews Cheadle out on his naive remarks about the Great American War.
"Mr. Cheadle claims that he would have kept forcing our boys to the bitter end. That is an ignorant claim. Had we forced our comrades to march to Buenos Aires, we would have lost at least three million men. Argentina was becoming a desperate animal, and desperate animals will do anything to survive. I was informed that they were under the mindset that we were attempting to reduce their country to a nuclear waste land, so they were very much becoming this desperate animal.
"Argentina took about fifty million lives with its "limited war" policies, and they still had plenty of fight in them. What if they simply stopped following what little internation law they were following and blew Nicaragua, Coast Rica, and Panama to fine ashes? How more Medinas and Mexico Cities would there have been? How much longer would that war have taken? How many more Nicaragua Massacre's would there have been? How much more of Brazil would have burned? How much more would have Latin America lost? Eventually, Castro's madmen would have dumped everything in their nuclear arsenal on the United States and the Pacific Alliance.
"Unless every other world power had joined our cause, reducing Argentina to a state where it would never harm us again would have taken years and probably several million lives. It could not have been done without serious consequences. The man in charge now is at least a decent man. We did far more by working with the Argentinans to take down Castro's cult of killers then we would have by reducing their country to fine dust. President Pershing saved potentially half a billion lives with her diplomacy, and we now watch Argentina like a hawk, which the Pacific Alliance as a whole failed to during the 2010s.
"What Mr. Cheadle says is indeed an ignorant dream. Yes, we could have reduced Argentina to nothing, but had we done so, we would be living in an era of chaos that would make the Gates Recession look very nice."
September 28, 2028: Putin's comments are very well received (with the exceptions of the obvious radicals) and help shift the political landscape.

Also on this day, At a massive Socialist rally in Alaska, Candiate Bernie Sanders, Governor Dimitri Mendelev, and President Putin all gather. The news of the day is that Putin will finally give his endorsement.
As Putin takes the post to make his speech, Sanders notices something odd out of the corner of his eye. His suspiscion is confrimed when somebody in the audience shouts, "He's going to kill the President!"
Faster than he has ever moved in his life, Sanders pushes Putin out of the way just as a brilliant blood red laser streaks across the sky. No more than second later, the laser pierces Sanders' heart, blooding spraying the air and covering the the two Russian Americans on stage.
The Secret Service quickly guns down the assassin, but the damage is done.
After five long minutes of shock, quietly talking with Governor Mendelev, and the Secret Service insisting that he leave, President Putin takes the post once more. He looks at his now blood covered speech and begins,
"Comrades, I came here today to tell you who I would give my blessings to. While I have enjoyed all the cooperation of the Republican party and once again thank them for everything, I must remind the nation that I am a Socialist first and formost. Sadly, the man who was going to get my endorsement, one who has supported me for eight years now, is no longer with us." Putin pauses as he begins to tear up. "Governor Mendelev has informed me that he no longer has the heart to continue campaigning. As of now, there will be no Socialist candidate on the ballot. Picking a replacement would insult Bernie. He did not have to take the shot for me. If I had been the one to die, he would have found himself in a much better position to win the election, as President of the United States, backed by a nation of sympathy. No, instead, Bernie made the ultimate sacrifice.
"However, I came here to endorse somebody, and I will now do so. I give my full support to Senator Pershing. Bernie knew how conflicted I am about this, but I now only have one choice. It would be an insult to everyone I have worked with not to do this." Putin turns to leave, but the microphone picks up one last line.
"If you can hear me Bernie... forgive me."
The audience is still to shocked to do anything as Governor Mendelev and the Secret Service escort President Putin, now sobbing beyond control, away.

The Pacific Alliance beat you there, they have had "Persecoms" or humanoid looking androids, since the late 2020s. They now are bbeing implemented in a lot of mundane jobs.
Picture of what one looks like (It's taken from Negima but it works all the same). Skin is a ceramic composite of some sort, One of the ears is a radio antennas. The other is a receiver to get power from the Tesla Electric Broadcast Station.
Oh and the Warwalkers by Marks. In an excel spreadsheet in the zip file. I know the PA development history more then Finland's or EDC's. So that's why they are more mechs in those
Russia is in a warwalker development race with the PA. Currently the PA has energy shields which Russia hasn't figured out, and the vice versa situation regarding Russia's Neutron cascade. EDC probably is just rolling out their 6th generation. 7th they will get by 2040 maybe
Thanks to Code Geass wiki for having so many consistent images for their mechs
And the file will not attach. I'll make a google doc or something to put it on
