UPDATED TIMELINE

2000: Federal government moves to nationalize dwindling supplies of oil and natural gas production. Legislatures in Texas, Oklahoma and Louisiana react by seceding, and move to nationalize these resources themselves. Pitched battles with federal forces follow, resulting in the destruction of several oilfield sites on both sides of the newly-established border.

2003: U.S. forces stopped in the hills of central Texas, ending bloody "Gulf or Bust" campaign. Rebel forces begin to retake lost territory.

2004: Texarkana Accords are signed, ending the Second Civil War. Oklahoma, Texas and Louisiana become three separate sovereign nations, referred to as the Free Oil States.

2011: World War 3 Began however many of these Radio DJ's including Chuy Gomez (of KMEL in San Francisco), Jojo Wright (of KIIS-FM in Los Angeles) among others are going to work to play on the Radio during the War, also a number of TV Stations suspend broadcasting for World War III

2012: Grain blight breaks out in Nebraska, spreading rapidly to neighboring areas. A simultaneous blight takes root in the Ukraine. Accusations fly, charging deliberate biological war, followed by nuclear warheads. To everyone's surprise, satellite defenses stop most of the missiles. Meanwhile, the world's stock of grains, excluding barley and sesame, has been devastated. Severe food shortages spring up across the globe. The U.S. is in better short-term shape than most, since the blight apparently has no effect on foods with preservatives in them.

Also: A Few Months after the California Music Channel pulls the plug despite of the building being damaged by the War, A Project is made to clone many immortals in Pro Sports History however the clones will first play after the clone will turn 15 Years Old in 2027.

2016: The Food Riots. "Fortress" towns develop. National government fails to keep order throughout much of the U.S.

2018: Gangs rule most of the U.S. outside of the fortress towns. Country real estate becomes worthless; algae farms make up lost food production.

2020: Many large cities totally abandoned. National government regains authority but enforcement decentralized. Economy weak but stable, with food rationed and unemployment at 37%.

2021: World War 3 Has Ended after 10 Years.

2022: Supreme Court decision decriminalizes manslaughter in arena games. "Death sports" become popular. Television becomes nation's number-two industry, just after food production.

2024: Armadillo Autoduel Arena opens on site of former shopping mall in Austin, Texas.

2026: Utah autoduellists form vigilante group to counter Badlands cycle gangs. AADA holds first sanctioned "National Championship" in Austin, Texas. AADA also begins issuing area advisories and helping duellists organize against cycle gangs and other hazards, upsetting local police forces.

2027: Police admit inability to deal with duellist-armed vehicles in highway use. Informal duels increase in numbers.

Also: The First Clones have entered in to the Pro Sports World many of which have entered to United Football Association or the United Baseball Association with Hockey and much more follows.

2028: Many localities legalize vehicular weaponry of a "defensive nature" - very loosely defined. Duelling outside city limits now legal in 14 states and tolerated in most others.

2029: A variety of weapons becomes available as "factory options" on all U.S. makes of cars and several imports.

2030: Statistics show "smash-and-grab" cycle and car gangs much reduced. Rural real estate begins to rise in value. Law enforcement officials credit vehicular weaponry of private citizens, but most point out that "The gangs that are left are now better armed than we are ..." Autoduelling now legal in 39 states, as well as the Free Oil States.

2033: Autoduel Quarterly, "The Journal of the American Autoduel Association," is first published. Autoduelling now legal in all 47 states in the U.S., as well as Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, most Canadian provinces, the Republic of Quebec, Australia and Mexico.

2068: Cale Yarborough won the Peach State 200 season finale race in Jefferson, GA, David Pearson who finished 3rd in the Season Finale race in Jefferson, GA clinched the 2068 NASCAR Jollibee Cup Crown
