Simian Flu Crisis (Map Game)

In 2018 a fatal mistake caused a fictional virus to come to life. Now you can change that by trying to cure the simian flu so earth doesn't have a planet of the apes.

Overview
After the deadly virus started to spread, the United States was pointed at to be the cause. Relations with Russia hit rock bottom, ending with Russia to enter a state of isolation and to also enter a State of Emergency. Mass riots and anarchy flowed throughout all of Europe, with the epicenter being Berlin and Munich, Germany. New Zealand, staying relatively untouched in this situation, began to send troops to assist other countries. With Mexico falling into anarchy, New Zealand made the bold decision to bomb the infected areas, with the result being Mexico's Government declaring war on New Zealand. Radio towers across North America were toppled in the constant domestic conflicts between the infected and surviving military forces. Poland shut its borders completely, but infected had already leaked through into the country. Japan's power grid began to fail, and Australia, along with Spain, both went bankrupt due to excessive spending to fight the infected. India and Indonesia became essential locations for the mass-spreading of the flu. Nuclear power-plants around the world went into Meltdown, causing entire cities to be contaminated with radiation and the flu. Wars began to break out across the Middle East and Africa over the remaining luxuries, with the main battlefronts being Congo and Saudi Arabia. Turkey was marked "Badlands", as mass rioters and infected roamed the crippled state. Brazil eventually collapsed, with Rio de Janiero being burnt to the ground with airstrikes laced with napalm.
