2030 - The New Order
2030. Protest and chaos take over the streets. The ruling party, the "National Populist Alternative," announces that Polar Bear Tuberculosis is spreading among the Portuguese population. It declares a State of Emergency and imposes a General Lockdown. State-controlled TV, under the APN's influence, broadcasts fake footage of the opposition leader at a rave. The APN's poll numbers skyrocket, prompting them to call elections with the aim of revising the Constitution. The Prime Minister’s wife commits suicide. The people are set to vote for a NEW ORDER.
