The North American continent, the chosen one.

Its unique geographical location has created a century-old hegemony of the beautiful country.

The plains in the east are fertile and flat, making them ideal for large-scale mechanized farming. These conditions result in the largest agricultural production on the Blue Star.

For a long time. The beautiful country is not only the largest agricultural producer, but also the largest industrial producer, and he is a well-deserved world hegemon.

However, what is gained must be revealed.

When the natural conditions in the eastern part of the beautiful country are too superior, they are naturally reluctant to open up the barren western part of the country.

That's the western plateau without any agriculture.

As a result, the sea level has risen.

Neighbors across the Pacific built high causeways to block the intrusion of the sea, and the beautiful country only mocked with mouth cannons. And when the sea rose rapidly, the beautiful country wanted to learn from its neighbors to build walls, but suddenly found that there was no cement production company in China. That's embarrassing.

Their scientific and technological strength was sufficient to ensure that the design and construction of the cement plant was completed in a very short time, however, there was no recognized skill in operation.

The cement factory lasted only a few days before it was declared over, thinking it was submerged by the sea.

In just a few months, sea levels soared by 800 meters.

The entire eastern plains of the beautiful country are submerged in the sea. Only the barren western desert plateau is still holding on. Nearly 200 million eastern residents crowded into the west.

Especially the safest of the Colorado Plateaus.

People flock to this plateau willingly and quite simply, this is the only desert plateau in the United States and the highest place in the United States.

In the sense of crisis of the sea pouring into the mainland, the highest place that these people are most willing to go to is naturally.

The Colorado Plateau, with an altitude of 4,000 meters above sea level, is the crown of the most beautiful countries. If people don't go here, where else can they go? So the question is, can this plateau make 200 million people live?

The answer, of course, is no.

Erosion by the Colorado River and its tributaries, the Colorado Plateau forms deep canyons. Its name comes from the Spanish word "Colorado", and theoretically such a desolate plateau has no potential for industrial or agricultural development, but it is precisely because of its unique alluvial rock formations that people who are willing to push the limits find the perfect destination.

Geographically, this desert plateau is located between the Southern Rocky Mountains and the Vasaki Mountains, in the middle and upper reaches of the Colorado River. Part of the Rocky Mountains, which spans the U.S. states of Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona, covers an area of about 300,000 square kilometers.

The vegetation is dominated by steppes and semi-deserts, with coniferous forests in the upper places. The valley is dotted with large areas of Indian reservations. There are several national parks, national monuments and state-owned forest areas. The local transportation is inconvenient and the economy is backward. The economy is dominated by animal husbandry, but also mining and forestry in addition to tourism.

Agriculture is the only one that does not.

And at this time, something funny happened.

A part of the western residents took up their spears to prevent their eastern neighbors from entering. The reason is simple, these people know very well that the west simply cannot accommodate a large population.

Because the grain in the west has always been provided by the east, it does not have any agricultural base itself.

Now, the grain-producing areas in the east have disappeared, and the only thing they can rely on is grain reserves. But the grain reserves of the beautiful country are only enough for one year.

After a year, the only thing people without food can do is eat grass.

Thus, a skirmish broke out. A hundred years after the smoke of the Civil War dissipated, it once again permeated the land of North America.

It's just that in this war, people are no longer fighting for labor. It's the right to live.

War is bloody.

In particular, both sides of the war underestimated each other's resolve, which led to a river of blood on the Colorado Plateau. Fortunately, when the casualties on both sides were large enough, people were finally able to calm down and talk.

But no matter how you talk about it, the grain doesn't grow on its own.

When Du Lengqiu arrived, it was already a year and a half later.

The desolate western plateau is already lush with meadows and woods. Du Lengqiu has never been to a beautiful country, so he naturally doesn't know the desolation of the west.

However, when Du Lengqiu arrived, what he saw was corpses all over the field.

As the chosen country and a beacon of freedom, when there is a food crisis, it does not need to be clever for any country, but because of the proliferation of guns, it leads to more deaths.

In the woods, in the meadows, there were dead bodies everywhere.

And the most frightening thing is that there is still no large-scale agriculture here. Du Lengqiu swept over the western land. There are only scattered cornfields on the land.

Yes, cornfields.

The food that the people of the beautiful country used to feed the pigs and cattle is now their life-saving ration. Du Lengqiu could see that next to the corn field, there were actually soldiers with guns patrolling.

And how big is that corn field?

Du Lengqiu estimated that there were about twenty acres of land. It's just that on the plateau, the land is barren, and the yield of these corns is estimated to be only about 500 catties.

This field can't even feed a thousand people. On the plateau of Nuoda, there are less than ten such fields. This is not because the people in the beautiful country are too lazy, but because there is no room for farmers who can cultivate the fields well on this land.

When war became a habit, when plundering became a habit, people had long lost the consciousness of ploughing the land.

From east to west,

From west to east.

Du Lengqiu walked through the entire wasteland, and he sighed faintly. The beautiful country that shines on human civilization is now being played by itself as the afterglow of civilization.

It's not that there is no chance to save themselves, it's just that when the opportunity comes, people don't necessarily be able to grasp it.

And to the north from the beautiful country, is Canada, known as the country of cannabis.

It's a strange transition. One in seven of them smoke marijuana, and this is something that has been repeated in hundreds of countries on the Blue Star, and none of them are so bullish.

However, this country has excellent geographical conditions.

Even now, when the sea level is skyrocketing, he still retains a small piece of the country.

And the scarcity of the population allows them to deal with it calmly.

This is a great thing, the only downside is that they are too close to the beautiful country. At the time of the cataclysm, a large number, more than 10 million people, crossed the Great Lakes and poured into the north.

Some people may ask, is Canada just watching like this?

Of course not, but the problem is that this influx of 10 million people are all armed with guns, which is equivalent to 10 million militiamen, and Canada, with all the police and soldiers loaded together, is less than a fraction of these people.

How dare they not let it go?

And the result of this influx of people is Canada, which has completely become a second beautiful country.

The North American states have completely fallen.

When Du Lengqiu crossed the mountainous area of northern Canada, he looked at the smoke billowing on the ground and the sound of gunfire, so he made a solemn announcement.
