=Chiotana = When Aiguo was in his mid-twenties, he was drafted into one of the fiercest wars ever fought against the U.S. This war would later become known as World War III, and would be the true birth of Chiotana. He proudly entered into the army and quickly became a very skilled soldier with great pride of his Chinese heritage and his country, China. By the middle of the war, the Chinese army had suffered 20,000 casualties but then the reports of the U.S decoding the Chinese army codes -- and hence forth revealing their every move from then on -- gave way to a devastating loss of 100,000 soldiers and civilians at the conclusion of the war. Aiguo was very disappointed and angry with this loss and his hatred for Americans grew stronger each time he recalled the war. He wanted revenge! After the war, he became part of a Chinese police spy agency and became associated with many others who, like him, wished to have revenge on the U.S for China’s humiliating defeat. They banded together and actually planned to overthrow China’s government in order to accomplish their goal, but unfortunately this supposedly secret mission was found out and he was sentenced to a short five years in prison, but when he came back he was eligible for citizenship again and therefore could be elected as ruler. The people welcomed him back anxiously, and he quickly, by popular demand, rose to the position of chairman. This position held more power than being ruler itself and, through brainwashing speeches, new laws, alliances, political repression and economic reform, he was able to finally begin a new way of life as we know it. Once China was in an extremely good economic, political and military state he launched his first attack on U.S cities. So many bombs fell that the day became night, and he set up torture camps that any American-born citizen was put into, but rarely ever came out of again. The president of the U.S fled from the attacks, only to be found 7 months later in an underground shelter. He was held at gunpoint and finally surrendered the U.S to China. China’s army, at the conclusion of the war, numbered 293,789. It was the largest army the world had ever seen! Yet, as you can imagine, millions of Americans died in the torture camps. Aiguo quickly set up his domain in the U.S and became a dictator, too powerful and smart for anyone to overthrow. He alone kept watch over the people who he had brainwashed in the torture camps and he ruled with technology at his side. Robots who held one of the uppermost positions in the ranking pyramid were in charge of many municipal jobs. In this world, Aiguo was the puppeteer and the people his lifeless puppets. He had his revenge; but will someone avenge him?
 * Background :** Before the land of Chiotana the world was once divided into continents; the people had free will and wonders of technology were just beginning. An Asian man lived in this world in the continent of Asia. His name was Aiguo. At this time an epidemic had risen, causing many of his siblings to die at a very young age. His father, Ai Ming, was an alcoholic and beat him and his mother tremendously! Aiguo grew to become a very good man and had a very close relationship with his mother, toward whom he felt sympathy.


 * Environment :** Strict and oppressive with constant police supervision, people are given strict times in which they are able to leave their homes and mandatory times when they are to return. It is always uncomfortably cold in Chiotana and there is never enough air to breathe. Robo-cops patrol the streets to ensure that everyone is where they are supposed to be at that given time. The streets are much more crowded towards the middle of the city and factories become more mixed in with the houses. In the second ring of the city, the streets are more wide and less crowded. The factories that are in the center make way for large towering buildings, with a slightly inviting appearance. Around the second circle is an electric fence and what appears to be an infinite row of Robo-cops. In the city's very outskirts lives the dictator in a free space. It is unknown what the space looks like beyond the fence. For walking up to the fence, you can be shot immediately.


 * Occupations: ** Robots cover all government jobs and municipal work. Some examples of these robots are "Robo-cops", "EMT-bots", and "Fire-bots". The EMT-bots and Fire-bots are not nearly as important as the Robo-cops, because the EMT-bots and Fire-bots are only used in the case of an emergency. Inner party members act as teachers in government institutions. As teachers, they teach only the exact things the dictator wants people to believe. The Inner Party members are used to ensure that no teachings go against those of the government. Outer Party members cover all unwanted jobs such as farming and hard labor. These jobs force workers to constantly work long, hard hours, enabling the government to keep everyone under constant surveillance and also to prevent uprisings and unnecessary violence.

**Government:** The dictator, Aiguo, has taken over and constantly watches the citizens through "Robo-cops". The Robo-cops are used to ensure that humans will not betray the dictator because he trusts no one. The dictator uses a brainwashing method to convince all the Inner Party members that they are special and they will never be treated like the Outer Party members( majority of the people). They keep everything for themselves and do not help the Outer Party at all. Punishments for lesser crimes consists of community service and forced labor camps for long periods of time. More serious crimes such as rape, murder, and uprising against the government are punishable by death.


 * Economy: ** No one in Chiotana is rich. All of the Outer Party members are below the poverty line and make less than 3 dollars an hour. The Outer Party members pay high taxes and don't have any money for recreational activities, such as reading, so that they can remain ignorant. The Inner Party members are all in the lower middle class and receive reasonable wages. None of the Inner Party positions receive a wage of less than $15 an hour. The Inner Party members pay low taxes in the form of tithes to the dictator. The tithes are about 25% of each Party member's monthly wages. Inner Party members are free to commerce where ever they choose except for with the Outer Party members. Everyone is kept on tight allowances to insure they always need the support of the dictator.

**Society:** The society of Chiotana is highly segregated. The Inner Party shall never mix with the Outer Party members and upon seeing Outer Party members pass by they show a look of disgust and hatred towards them. The Inner Party is believed to be higher than the Outer Party and therefore elects for recreation centers and hospitals to be built better than those of the Outer Party. The Inner Party members are the only ones who are allowed to vote and in very few cases are allowed to drive. The society's laws are not relaxed for the Inner Party and still equally strict. The Outer Party members constantly fight amongst themselves about various issues. The Outer Party members hate the Inner Party members as much as they hate them. The Outer Party members try constantly to sabotage the Inner Party without success. Inner Party members are also given better educations that the Outer Party members. In the Outer Party you are given an education from kindergarten to 8th grade. However, in the Inner Party, you are given an education from kindergarten until the 12th.


 * Laws: ** Everyone must take drugs prescribed to them to regulate their emotions and behavior. These keep them calm and prevent uprisings and fighting. Uprisings are dealt with in a harsh way, to prevent further misconduct from those in the outer party. However, as seen in the society section, when the drugs fail to prevent uprisings or fighting, only issues involving the government are dealt with. Fights amongst those in the Outer Party are rarely dealt with, and when they are, the punishments usually consist of community service or forced labor. Anything that seems to try to limit the power of the dictator is seen as treason and is dealt with in a severe manner. Death is not uncommon if you are seen as a threat to the power of the government. This includes trying to spread ideas of freedom and democracy. All citizens of Chiotana are require to carry a trackable device at all time. It is waterproof and never dies. The device serves as everything you need to live, as determined by the dictator. It is your key, cell phone, computer and television, among other things. All activity on the device is traced at all times. Old age is seen as a sign of uselessness so no one may live past the age of 65. Anyone over the age of 40 is treated as "old" and must use separate buses then those of younger ages. Books not approved by the government are banned, to restrict knowledge and stop people from thinking outside of what the government wants them to believe.
