The Great Scare

The Great Scare is an event that not only scared all the population of the Earth, but also killed 15% of the population of the Earth, including Leon Kane, on his contract to do Day Zero, a series of nuclear exchanges where he can reset humanity. It was intentionally done by El Presidente, the President of Tropico.

The Great Scare changed all TVs into emergency alert system notifications after spies from around the world witnessed that they saw all pictures of the cartoon characters wearing formal wear, and jumpscare screaming sounds, and soon, they even change into pictures of cartoon characters in formal wear, and complete with extremely loud screaming sound effects, which caused a gust of 210 kph within 10km radius, a 7.5 earthquake, and an deafening screaming sound effect, which TVs cannot be turned off, despite the lines were cut, and after the incident, the TVs turned off.

After the incident, infrastructure of the world is quartered, and rebuilding would take within decades, which it was actually completed within less than a decade after the attack, due to advanced technology.
