The American Keepers Saga which began with the American Keepers continues with the War for Comulod and the New American Republic. The first trilogy will take place between 2012 and 2076. The second trilogy will take place during the growth of the New American Republic between 2097 and 2170. The third trilogy will continue on through the next hundred years and so on. Smaller books following specific characters or set of characters will follow. 

There are three main American Superpowers in this timeline. The first is of course the United States of America which existed from 1776 to 2025. The United States was the constitutional Republic we know so well. 

 

The second is the Camulodian Republic which existed from 2025 until the 2070s. The governing structure of the Republic was the same as that of the Keepers with the Supreme Commander and the Keepers High Council the main governing body. 

 

The third is the New American Republic which began in 2075 and stayed in power until the Great Reformation in 6126 when the Galactic Terran Republic was created and the human race was a dominant force in the Milky Way. The New American Republic revived and reformed the American Government to the way it was laid out by the United States Constitution. However, the Keepers High Council would still have important roles in the running of the country which now included Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean Islands, Cuba, and most of Central and South America. State and Local governments would return to full functionality with funding and support provided by the Keepers and the Republic. Military forces in North America would be a mixture of the Republic and Keepers Militaries. The Capital of the New American Republic would be in Camulod as DC had been virtually ransacked during the Shadow Invasion. The Keeper Garrisons on the East Coast did manage to get the contents of the museums and government buildings out of DC and New York before the invasion and most of them were sent to Camulod.  

The Cities of the Keepers Universe

Atlantis

 

The city of Atlantis was built by a race commonly referred to as the Ancients by the species that know of their existence. Atlantis was originally built in the Northwestern corner of Africa, in what is modern day Mauritania. The city itself is roughly 25 miles in diameter, consisting of five rings and a tall hill in the center with four rings of water in between the other five. The outer ring, the Fifth Ring, consisted of primarily shipbuilding areas and landing pads. The Fourth Ring consisted of storage buildings and manufacturing. The Third Ring was primarily residential, with towers that were roughly fifteen stories tall. The Second Ring was a mixture of residential and military towers, each one between fifteen and eighteen stories tall. The First Ring consisted of military and some government buildings, with towers that ranged from eighteen to twenty-four stories tall. Now, the Central Hill was home to a tall Central Spire that was the centerpiece of the city, the tallest building sitting at roughly thirty-eight stories tall. Other buildings on the Hill included the Treasury Building, the Council Building, the Archives, and several others. Most towers on the Hill were about twenty four to twenty-eight stories tall. 

 

The Primary defenses of the city included a series of gun turrets situated on each Ring that fired both energy projectiles and missiles. Several manned gun turrets were positioned in the Fifth, Third, Second, and First Rings as well. The city also had a shield that, when sufficiently powered, could repel any attack, from land or air. The Atlantians also had several types of  handheld weapons, the greatest of which was the Atlantian Trident, a weapon that could only be used by someone with the genetic markers of the Original Five Families and that was primarily used to defeat the Dark Spirits and Entities.

 

Atlantis had three fleets of ships with a total number of around 300-400 ships, including an interstellar class that would regularly travel to other worlds to trade. 

 

The Atlantian Government was originally a monarchy, then became a Republic by its Second Millennial Anniversary and stayed that way until the city was moved.

 

The population varied over the millenia, starting off with around three thousand residents and by the time Atlantis was sent to the Otherworld there were over two hundred thousand residents, though not all lived in the city.

 

The city technology was highly advanced, with the Ancients using sapphire tablets that contained their database, built up over roughly eight thousand years. The Main Control Room was on the thirty-fifth floor of the Central Spire, with three Auxiliary Control Rooms situated on the lower levels of the Central Hill, and all had the ability to raise the Shield, fire the city defenses, and control the lighting for the city in times of war. The Ancients were also advanced enough to create the Otherworld Device(WT) , the device capable of moving entire cities to the Otherworld.

 

The power source for the city rested beneath the Central Hill, and made the power equivalent to twelve nuclear power plants.
