During the 2030s, the urban center was striking specially hard past the catastrophic climate event known equally the Dice-Off, with several parts of it sinking beneath the rising sea levels. During the post-obit Claw-Back decade, a major engineering project spearheaded by an alliance of engineering science companies managed to relieve the city past segmenting information technology into flood control zones.^[2] During the same decade, the city became dwelling house to the Techipelago,^[3] a global heart for high technology and innovation that was home to some of the world's most renowned corporations, such as Atbay Global Infrastructure, Miriam Technologies, and until 2042, Faro Automatic Solutions.^[four]

During the Faro Plague, the metropolis was the site of a series of battles known equally the Battles of the California-Marine, which saw man forces cut down robotic invaders on the coasts before existence pushed further inland.^[5] The remains of a Horus Titan in the metropolis behave witness to this battle. Information technology was besides hither that Ted Faro retreated to his personal end-of-times bunker, Thebes, subsequently the Faro Plague had eradicated all life on Earth.

Over centuries, the region was separated from the mainland by ascension sea levels, with ocean currents making information technology nearly inaccessible to achieve past bounding main.
