„Please gather in the main hall. Here you can find several artefacts from the time before the Third World War. As you may know, the Third World War began 2023 and finished in 2058, 35 years later.
Already several years before the beginning of the war there were political conflicts between different countries. This degenerated with the first nuclear attack by America against Russia. The weapons they used at first, however, were harmless compared to those used at the end of the war. Over the years and with tremendous growth of destruction, other countries, such as Korea or China, have also joined in the war. The ones who possessed stronger and more dangerous weapons, of course, had advantages over others. Therefore there was no stopping for the scientists of that time to go beyond the limits of humanity. The use of hydrogen and nuclear weapons left visible traces in our world, which, not at least because of the increasing radioactive radiation, brought to light the various mutations which are known today.
The war ended in an unimaginable extent.
In the middle of the room, in which you are standing, is a model of the earth about 370 years ago.
It was divided into 7 continents and 194 states. Using this model, you can now see how slowly, year by year, this planet is being destroyed by its own inhabitants. As part of this battle, 70% of the world's population has been wiped out and 80% of the planet is now uninhabitable due to nuclear pollution.
At the time of the war, groups of former inhabitants of the earth retreated into the underground. The lost belief in a peaceful and nonviolent world has led some to build a virtual network creating a sanctuary.
One member of this underground group was a person named Freyer. There is not much known about the person behind this pseudonym, but we owe this person and his or her helpers that we can now live in a perfectly, peaceful and functioning society. And in 316 years till now there were no records of violence. We have no weapons and for the first time in human history we learn from our mistakes. Another world war will not break out.
Back in 2030, Freyer build the foundation for our current life by uploading the first version of the Mirror.
The Mirror was, at that time, an image of the world before the war. The intention behind this was to preserve this relatively peaceful world in virtual form, as there was no hope that it would remain in real form after the war has started.
According to rumors, Freyer and his helpers are said to have uploaded themselves completely into the virtual network. There is no official evidence, but if it’s true, they would be the first people to physically go into the mirror, leaving no trace of themselves in the real world. After the disappearance of this group, Freyer's technologies were developed and expanded by other programmers and scientists.
Thus, our present civilization has emerged. The Mirror has built the foundation for our current life. The remaining livable 20% of this world are now our city. We do not need subdivisions into different continents or even cities. Every single person has the opportunity to become and to be what he or she wants. Of course, even in a perfect society, like ours, there are negative influences and desires that we do not tolerate here. We can not prevent some of us from having a predisposition to harm others or break the rules. Therefore, the mirror serves as a kind of a rule-free zone. It has the function that everything unwanted and forbidden can be carried out there. Our real world and real bodies take no harm.
In conclusion, all that remains to be said is: That it is a great advantage in life to make the mistakes that you can learn from as early as possible. This is a quote from Winston Churchill and we are fortunate that these mistakes have just begun early enough for us.
Now, please go to the left room where you will find technological relicts from that time. "
"What would life be, wouldn’t we have the courage to risk something?"
