America, what will we become?

History doesn't repeat itself. It outdoes itself. - Acton Granger, 54th President of the United States.

Nearly five decades from now, America is finding its legs again after years of bitter conflict. Civ-2, as the Second Civil War came to be known, turned many of the nation's cities into battlefields and took millions of lives. Early in the 2060 campaign, Reformation League candidate Acton Granger made an unprecedented concession - he would forego a running mate and offer the vice presidency to his chief rival, whomever that may become. It was a gesture of unity that rocketed Granger to victory. Still stinging from defeat, the Conservative League's Elijah Schroeder chose to swallow his pride and accept Granger's offer, alienating his own supporters and political allies in the process.

Now two years into their fragile partnership, the 2064 campaign looms, and Elijah learns his selection was more complicated than the call for healing he and the country were led to believe. He must decide whether to continue toiling as a false symbol of harmony, or turn against the man who is now his boss and leader of the free world.

Meanwhile, other national figures emerge with their own designs on the election, from the Freedom League's rebellious darling Shelby Monroe to the Progressive League's technology mogul Ben Allen, who could become the country's first gay president.

As each contender charts their strategies and the barnstorming begins, a terrorist attack - orchestrated by a new, horrifying weapon - rocks the nation and turns all of their campaigns upside-down.

That is, all of them but one.
