n 2050, a nuclear bomb was released from an unknown location and destroyed over half of the civilization on Earth. Those who survived were left to rebuild and come together as one by separating into 6 groups. A representative from each group was chosen based on skill (Capital, Mining, Agriculture, Food, Textile production, and Technology). These leaders became known as the "Founding Six."

They agreed to work together by each group focusing on their skill to trade amongst each other for the betterment of the community. It was at this point that they six came up with a name: Perthshire.
