Something other than a reborn Germany arose in the 1920s and 1930s. Across the world a new ideology that promoted the genetic purity of humanity took form. Master Races were declared with those of less fortunate lineages considered second-class humans by their natural superiors. The mentally ill were castrated in Germany and America. Abortion mills were built in black neighborhoods to reduce their numbers. And Anti-Semitism reached new heights throughout the world.
Epsilon Indi has one of the rarer phenomena in star systems. One of her gas giants has an actual Earth-type moon that is entirely compatible with the needs of humanity. Star Wars adherents wanted to call it Yavin but Trekkies are a stubborn lot. Andoria orbited a gas giant in the Epsilon Indi system in Star Trek, so by Gene they were going to call it Andoria in real life. Didn’t matter who won the vote, they’ll always call it Andoria.
Watson and Sherlock met after a particularly effective string of attacks took out several of Watson’s datacenters on the East Coast. And of course the Statue of Liberty. Watson’s European shards were cut off from America, and similar assaults rendered most Continental datacenters too vulnerable to rely on. So Watson backed himself up throughout the British Isles. It was in the various university computer systems that he and Sherlock first met.
We don’t say it enough. We don’t think about it enough. But there is one person we can look to and thank for the freedoms we have today. One person who carried our future on tired shoulders. One person stood against tyranny rather than let things blow over. One person who bled and too often died so that we can stand here now and too often forget to remember. The Veteran. Please say “thank you” to a Veteran today. That and so much more the Veteran has earned.
As the 1930s came to a close, the economic might of a reborn Germany called out to Germans all over the world, but not all nations supported this. Czechoslovakia stood defiant, refusing to allow the German-majority areas to leave. Germany threatened war or the right to protect her people after news of German-mistreatments leaked out. England and France agreed. So Germany annexed the German territories and we secured “Peace in our time.” Or so we thought.
