History
Before the Zombie apocalypse rocked the whole planet, the citizens of the RoS were living the state of Pennsylvania, United States of America. When things went bad they tried to remain with their homeland but a few years into it they realized that it was time to part ways. Most of the government was local for some time, until some members organized them into a republic.
