Iraq descends into anarchy with its massive crop failures. Israel, through careful cultivation of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetically_modified_crops genetically modified crops], barely manages to scrape through. The '''Group of 10 (G10)''' is formed to alleviate the famine in the Levant.\n\n== 2048 ==\n[[File:Mahmud_Iskandar.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Mahmud Iskandar (later Marduk Iskandar), addressing Iraq at his inauguration ceremony.]]\n* General '''[[Marduk Iskandar|Mahmud Iskandar bin Sayyid]]''', leading the Iraqi Revolutionary Party, [[Iraqi coup d'etat|seizes control of the Iraqi government]], placing it under military control through a \"transitional period\". Mahmud's declaration of a secular constitution triggers consternation in the [[New World Order#Amman_Declaration_of_Arab_Harmony|Amman Declaration (AHAD)]], but war is averted with a UN resolution deeming the act legal, but pressuring Iraq to conduct democratic elections within six months. The Iraqi Revolutionary Party (predictably) wins, capturing over 80% of the popular vote.\n\n== 2049 ==\n* Mahmud's cousin, '''Salah Hassim bin Sayyid''', is discovered to be at the center of a heretic cult dedicated to the study and worship of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Mesopotamian_religion ancient Mesopotamian gods] alongside [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam Islam]. Incredibly, Mahmud refuses to act against the cult, citing articles in the new Iraqi constitution guaranteeing religious freedom. Incensed, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syria Syria] leads an AHAD task force and surrounds the Iraqi border.

[[Joan Carpenter]] has this as her first major deployment.\n* President Fenshaw finds himself implicated in the '''Southwest Airlines scandal''', which came under investigation over irregularities in its tax returns. Fenshaw denies accusations laid at his feet by Minority Leader '''[[David Scurr]]''', who pushes for his [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impeachment_in_the_United_States impeachment]. Although Congress firmly rejects the proposal, the general public's confidence in the Democrat-dominated government is irreversibly shaken.\n\n== 2056 ==\n[[File:james_mccain_portrait.jpg|150px|thumb|left|James McCain Jr., 52nd President of the United States.]]\n* '''[[United States presidential election, 2056]]''': In a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Realigning_election#Realigning_elections_in_United_States_history re-aligning election], [[Progressive Party]] candidate '''[[James McCain Jr.]]''' is the first third-party candidate to unseat the Democrat's supremacy over the White House, defeating incumbent Vice-President '''[[Kathleen Kennedy]]''' by riding on a wave of popular support on the promise to \"Make America Great Again.\"\n* Three journalists known for investigating the sudden leak of unprovenanced papers connecting former president Fenshaw to the Southwest Airlines scandal are found dead.

His Vice-President, '''[[David Scurr]]''', is sworn in as President amid rumours of conspiracy.\n* The famine in the Levant continues into its tenth year, and despite massive food imports, the Middle East continues to be unstable. Mahmud, renaming himself '''Marduk Iskandar''' and Iraq the '''Babylonian Empire''', having consolidated his rule over the country, declares war on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syria Syria] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel Israel] and begins a \"drive to the sea\", with masses of tank battalions, assisted by overwhelming aerial support, rolling through Syria to assault Israel through the Golan Heights, triggering the '''[[Famine War]]'''.\n* The Famine War grinds to a brutal stalemate in the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golan_Heights Golan Heights], and Syrian forces conduct large-scale clandestine raids on Iraqi forces in Occupied Syria. The '''United Nations Interim Military Observer Group (UNIMOG)''' is dispatched to enforce an armistice between the two sides, and to escort Iraqi forces from Syria.\n[[File:Operation_Shebu_Israel_copy.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Operation Shebu, the planned destruction of Israel through chemical weapons, strikes Tel Aviv.]]\n* Popular revolts in Iraq threaten to unseat the Marduk regime, and the Iraqi force is given a three-week deadline by UNIMOG to retreat to national borders. Marduk refuses to repent, and unveils a secret weapon: a wing of fighter-bombers carrying a payload of nearly five hundred chemical warheads, laden with VX and sulphur mustard gas. In their attack, codenamed '''[[Famine War#Operation_Shebu|Operation Shebu]]''', only more than half of the bombs detonate, but the subsequent chemical poisoning contaminates the entire region, leaving barely 150,000 Israelis alive by the end of the year. Marduk is arrested by revolutionaries, but kills himself with a grenade before being successfully imprisoned.\n* Prevailing winds carry the toxic fallout into the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediterranean_sea Mediterranean Sea], irreversibly poisoning the water. Populations in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_Europe Southern] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Europe Eastern Europe] begin to show symptoms of chemical poisoning even before the Marduk regime falls.\n* '''John D'Israeli''', a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_fundamentalism fundamentalist] preacher, promulgates the '''[[Church of a Thousand Gross]]''', declaring the end times as foretold in the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_of_Revelation Book of Revelation] are nigh.

The death toll is in the tens of thousands.\n* John D'Israeli declares the creation of the '''Army of God''', an armed militia aligning to the principles of the Church of a Thousand Gross, who conduct hate crimes against those who speak out against the ways of the Church. He denounces David Scurr as the '''Beast of Revelation''', citing various verses of Revelation as \"evidence\" of this.\n\n== 2059 ==\n* David Scurr is shot in the head with a high-powered [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_gun air rifle]. The pellet barely penetrates the skull bone, but the loss of blood leads to his near-incapacitation, although he is predicted to make a full recovery well before the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Year%27s_Day New Year's Day] celebrations.\n* The Church of a Thousand Gross is declared to be a \"homeland terrorist organisation\" by the United States government. In response, John D'Israeli, calling himself '''John Patmos''', orders the construction of a massive armed complex in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patmos,_Arkansas Patmos, Arkansas]. The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Guard_of_the_United_States National Guard] is called in but is repelled when John Patmos reveals he has abducted '''[[Sylvia Scurr]]''', the First Lady, and threatens to televise the tortures of the '''Whore of Babylon''' unless government troops retreat. A [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demilitarized_zone demilitarised zone] is set up around Patmos.\n* '''Operation Peach''' is put into action immediately by the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Department_of_Homeland_Security Department of Homeland Security], with junior officer '''[[Joan Carpenter]]''' mobilised to investigate inroads to the fortress, now called '''[[New Zion]]'''.\n\n[[Category:Events]]"
