A company's a creature that's trying to survive; it's gotta claw and bite unless it wants to be eaten up by something bigger.

- Eliza Thornbrook, CEO of the now defunct Armitage United

The year is 2098, and the world looks very different to what it did at the start of the century. Although large economic depressions were not new phenomenons, in 2029, the "Great Collapse" occured; a total meltdown of the global economic order, with currencies falling apart in a domino effect that left billions jobless, savings eradicated and homes reposessed on a mass scale. Bread lines snaked across cities, infrastructure crumbled without the finances to maintain them, and protests raged in streets. Protests became riots, became all out civil insurrection, and with people left jobless and with nothing else to lose, governments fell like wheat to a scythe. 

In the power vacuum left behind in the Great Collapse, corporations found themselves free of the regulations which bound them and quickly took the place of governments. Although many started as simple enforcers of law and order, the most successful would rapidly grow into massive, powerful, multinational megacorporations with no one to oppose them but each other. Some masqueraded behind the names and iconography of dead nations to legitimise themselves, carrying out a charade of democracy and freedom, whilst many openly flaunted their new, authoritarian rules. Although some saw the rise of these new forces as a return to law and order, others have called this new era the rise of "Capitalism Incarnate" and do not believe that any good can come from those who care only for their bottom line. Regardless, the one point everyone agrees on is that megacorporations run things very, very differently than former governments.

Welcome to Conglomerate, the NRP where you take the role of a country-replacing Megacorporation... Or, more specifically, the CEO of such an organisation. Make shady deals, initiate corporate takeovers, wheel out brand new products... The only way a company survives these days is with endless growth, and just because they're bigger doesn't mean they can stop growing. This will be a slightly more personal NRP revolving around characters rather than the running of the nation, and will not feature an excessive amount of mathematics and calculating prices and taxes and all that minutia.
