New California Republic The Flag of the Republic With a standing Army of over 100,000, the largest in the entire Wasteland, and a total population of roughly 700,000 across various cities, the NCR is one of the most powerful factions in the Western United States, however a series of setbacks have placed it on a path towards stagnation as of 2292-the beginning year of the “Era of Stagnation”. Since its founding, the NCR has gradually expanded from its capital in Shady Sands and absorbed other communities and regions under its various promises of security, “Wasteland Democracy”, and its dedication to Old World Values, to varying degrees of enthusiasm, and fought numerous wars against opponents of its expansion, its various ideological enemies, and other regional powers and postwar factions. The New California Republic is a postwar faction and self-proclaimed nation state operating in New California (from its founding in the 2189 to the present) and various other regions since its foundation under Aradesh in the year 2189, in the wake of the earlier prominence Shady Sands unintentionally gained during the Unity Crisis after the dislodging of the Radscorpions, defeat of the Khans, and rescue of Tandi at the hands of the Vault Dweller caused Shady Sands and several other communities to unify into the New California Republic (NCR).
