Berlin is a metroplex in the north eastern area of the AGS (Allied German States) and is a Free-City-State that doesn't belong to the to the AGS itself, although it has strong ties. It was once the capital Germany, but now is selfgoverned State under the Berlin Council. Large parts of the City where reigned under Anarchy for over a decade. Even now there are semi regular fight between police forces and people of the anrachist districts.

History

First years of the new Millennium

After the reunion Berlin was the Capitol of Germany from 1990 to 2023, til the Government and Parliment moved to Hannover to escape the ever growing rampaging riots and daily violent demonstrations. In the Eurowars 2031 tank divisions from the russian invaders, contrary to expectations didn't go against Berlin, but went around the City in the Northand made Brandenburg a battlefield and Berlin remained unscathed. In 2033 islamistic Fanatics decleared the great Dschihad in Berlin as well an new unrests and riots breack out. Kreuzberg gets declared an Emirat, which didn't last long.

The Anarchist Berlin

In the Year 2039 the Night of Rage Meta-Human friendly resistences, anarchist and leftwing groups started City wide riots and destroyed the Berlin section of the Humanis Policlub, which needed years to find anad establish a new location for their anti-metahuman organisation in Berlin. As a result the riots kept going and together with Students of the free University Berlin who revolt against - in their opinion- Unfair Exam Admission Regulations it ended up in a small civil war. In the end a coalition of Neo-Anarchist, Anarchist-Syndicates and Trotzkists gained control over Berlin and declared it " The Greatest Experiment in the Anarchist history". The so called "Last Law" was declared on 7th March 2039, and the Berlin Council was now nothing more then a discusion platform without any legislative or executive powers, and was the only "polotical" Organ which remained in the anarchist Berlin. Paying taxes was completly voluntary, the police got dispersed and all public facilities were privatised. Since the "Last Law" expressly prohibited to enact laws, everybody who felt his rights violated or felt was victim to a crime had to stand in for themselfor hire vigilantes. To be able to provide these services more effectively the jobless policemen formed vigilante troups (Selbstjustiz Trupps SJTs) or became professional bodyguards to hire. Everybody was responsible for their and their Chummers and allies safety, nobody bothered to enforce things like protection of minors, compulsory schooling or principles of equal treatment. For the power structure within anarchy the term "Status F" (Status Fluxus,derivied from flowing, always changing) was coined, since it was particularly important to the anarchists that all mutual relationships were in constant change, no new power structures in the sense of a status quo could be cemented. Anyone who gave the impression of building something like a stable power base was automatically considered as "Bedrohung des Status Fluxus" (BFS eng.Threat to status Fluxes ) and had all other parties against them which nobody survived for long. The always changning mutual relationships from Policlubs, Syndicats, Sects, Cults, Gangs and Corpsworked in chaotic ways, where the services of informants and negotiators where vital for anybody who wanted to be someone within the Status F.

However, since the "absolute freedom" of anarchy also demanded considerable social and personal responsibility from the individual, and quite a few confused the lack of established laws with "everything is allowed", the anarchist paradise Berlin was not so paradisiacal in practice.


End of Status F

The state of anarchy remained in this form in Berlin until 2055. An anarchosyndicate group called "Liberty of Body and Soul" (LBS) made alliances with anti-anarchistic groups and prepared for a fight. Before the conflict stared, however, large corporate groups (with the political backing of the Federal Council) entered the city with a militarily planned and executed operation. The LBS and their allies were almost completely wiped out. The anarchist, who where logistically and militarily inferior to the Coproratetroups fought a fierce defensive battle, but their resistence wasn't coordinated well enonugh and they got driven back into an eastern district of Berlin which they could hold with great difficulty and got walled in.

2060 there was some kind of tense peace- or rather armistice between the anarchist- and corporate Berlin. after the disbandment of the Schadowland Frankfurt the most importantpart moved to the anarchistic east Berlin. A crew of local anarchists from the previous Sysop Tell took over: Antifa, Anne Archiste, Dator and Roter Korsar as well as Corpshark, who together with Konwacht moved from Frankfurt. An Otaku-tribe under the lead of Mnemosynes, who 2061 survived «Operation Erntedank», moved to Berlin.

2061 was the legendary, from MCT-Media together with DeMeKo (German Media and Communication AG) sponsored benefit concert "Ragnarock" for the "Victims of Anarchy" and the reconstruction of Berlin.

Although now "tolerated" border crossings (both to Brandenburg and the western Corp-Berlin) exist, the anarchists in the east couldn't feel safe. This was shown again, for example, in December 2064 in the aftermath of Crash 2.0, when the BIS (federal institute for internal security) - on the pretext of investigating the massacre by Winternight on East Berlin's Otaku - unearthed the Shadowland Hub.

After an assassination from the Sprawlguerilla on 14th April 2072 on a Corporate official, which was the last straw for the Corps and as result started the operation «Just Cause». The Corporate Troups stormed the anarchist east and proceeded relatively cautious which only led to a few casualties, and ended the status Quo of the divided City.


"Reunited" Berlin 2072

After the relief of the eastsectors the contract between Berlin and the AGS from 2055 was fundamentally revised and newly regulated. In the course of this drastic redesign, Königs Wusterhausen was also returned to Brandenburg, while others, including parts of Brandenburg surrounding the Berlin area, were incorporated. The number of districts in Berlin was reduced to 21 as part of a new drawing of the district boundaries. The Corporate Council was transformed into the "Berlin Council" a constitutional body made up of district representatives, während die Verwaltung der Stadt die Aufgabe der Berlin Verwaltungs AG (BERVAG) ist. Die Bezirksautonomie bzw. -autokratie stellt einen Kern der neuen Ordnung Berlins dar. So sitzen im neuen "Berliner Rat" Vertreter der exterritorialen Konzernbezirke nominell gleichberechtigt neben den demokratisch gewählten Bezirksvertretern der Freien Bezirke und den Vertretern der alternativen Bezirke, deren Regierungsformen von anarchistisch über kommunistisch bis meritokratisch reichen...
