History

Pre-Doomsday

The zone that became Lesser Poland was a flourishing zone. Katowice was the capital of a Metropolis with over 1.500.000 people, in the south, winter resort areas, notably Zakopane, were very popular, and many people would visit Krakow and Lublin.

Doomsday

On Doomsday the cities of Krakow and Lublin were destroyed by 200 kt and 100 kt bombs as well as a 200 kt bomb which missed its target, Katowice, but was nonetheless near enough to radiate the zone with a lot of damage. .

Post-Doomsday
