1912

The War of 1910, and the government scandals it exposed, shattered American confidence and trust in their government. Neither of the main political parties possessed the means to rebuild the Republic.Robert Wilson Davies III, the most prominent member of a new political theory, dubbed "Rationalism" by its adherents, stepped into this vacuum. He promised to restore American society and lead it into a new and prosperous future filled with powerful technology.But Rationalism harbored a dark secret: more than anything, Davies would stop at nothing to grasp control of the United States. If necessary, he would launch a war to seize the White House.
