New Britannia

New Britania is the setting for the game steamlands. It is a war-wrecked country located in Europe. While there are towns, it is mostly uninhabited and has vast wastelands.

History:
Most of the history of New Britania is unclear. What is known is that in the quite recent past, Europe was being fought by massive robotic war machines. The war stripped Europe of its energy supplies, and perhaps the war machines ran riot, and after the last one was silenced, people were struggling to rebuild civilization. It is presumably here that new Britania was founded, and the Steam Technology became widespread across it.

As the people tried to rebuild, they struggled with Pirates in the Wasteland. An engineer (possibly hired) set out on a mission to vanquish the Pirates. The Engineer was briefed by an unnamed person before going into the wasteland, and in the wasteland the Engineer fought many other Pirate tanks. The Engineer traveled across New Britania, doing good deeds for towns and acquiring help from the people around the country.

Fighting and destroying the Pirates who stood against him, he found and destroyed the Pirate Commander, bringing peace to the country.

Towns:
While there are Towns in New Britania, most of the country is a vast wasteland strewn with wreckage of war machines and other objects from the great war. The towns that Exist are all uniform, equipped with various facilities, such as repair shops, guards, and a (presumably steam-powered) monorail transport system. Each town plays host to a merchant, who sell goods to passing tank drivers. the towns seen to be riveted together, and damaged, presumably by pirates. People seem to farm to make a living and obtain food, even though there are no visible agricultural facilities. It is also known they keep livestock, and eat sausages. At the edge of each town there is a retractable steam powered bridge over a moat of bubbling mud to keep pirates out.

The Wastelands:
The Wastelands fill most of New Britania. They are immense flat areas filled with garbage and wreckage from the great war. They are populated only by Tank Pirates, and fights between their various factions, as well as against the heroic mercenary the player controls, are staged here. It is an extremely dangerous area for citizens of New Britania, as any person venturing through it stands the chance of getting kidnapped or killed by pirates. People often pay or agree to hitch a ride on the Engineers tank to travel through them, in order to avoid pirates. No wildlife is sen in this or any known area of new Britania. Some of the wastelands, and perhaps the whole of New Britania at some point, may have been underwater, since there are wreckages of large boats in various places. There are also Pyramid like structures scattered about, though what they are and what their purpose is/was is unknown.

Trivia

 * It has been theorized that the war in Europe and Steamlands possibly takes place after Dirk Valentine and the Fortress of Steam, as Guards, and the Valentine Gun are references to Dirk Valentine. The setting is also similar to Dirk Valentine. This is also supported by the blimp like Vehicles in the Steampunk Nitrome.com Skin.
 * Steamlands Player Pack takes place in a part of New Britania which has no shops.
