The world of
PRO-T-EN Man is both hyper-corporate and hyper-militaristic. The apotheosis of
the Military-Industrial Complex. Thus, all of society has been officiously
reorganized and recategorized.
Let’s take a closer look.
Firstly, the concepts of “cities” and “towns” have been replaced by gargantuan metropolises known as “Civilian Centers.” Built up around major cities like New York, Seattle, and L.A., these Civilian Centers are the only places that civilized, employed, people live and work. And gone are the fancy names like “Seattle” and “New York,” replaced instead by numerical titles based on the sectors in which they’re built.
With the advent of Civilian Centers, the concepts of “urban” and “rural” are also gone. Outside of the Civilian Centers lie the wastelands, the ruins of small-town America, now known as “Corporate Zones,” because this is where the Corporations wage their war for dominance. People who exist in the Corporate Zones are scavengers and are treated with utter contempt.
Regarding the Civilian Centers’ numerical titles, in their infinite wisdom, the corporations which have taken over America decided to do away with fancy state names like “Virginia,” “Montana,” and “California.” States are now known as “Sectors,” and each Sector is designated numerically.
Hence, “The United Sectors of America.”
In this corporate dystopia, the entire country is indexed by Time Zone Quadrant and Sector.
