[[WMG: Sword Art Online would ultimately lead to Fallout.]]
After somehow the incident involving Glowgen and RATH leaked, Japan's status as US' protectorate was revoked and Japan being hit by an embargo following the "SAO Incident" which took the lives of thousands of players, and illegal AI research, which affects foreign players as well as Japanese players. In response, Japan fired back by starting the "New Plague" in the US. World War III (which happens concurrent with the European-Middle East War and before the US-Chinese Resource Wars or even The Great War) happens proper, when in retaliation, Japan is nuked to oblivion by both US and China, not before the US forcefully seizing all the AI and VR assets of the Japanese. Society in the US were reformed to remove foreign, especially Japanese, influence. However the smartest minds of Japan being transferred to the US in secret with deals of lifetime servitude to the US as fellow researchers or lifetime servitude to the Chinese as slaves. Their research led to the idea of Vault experiments (directly inspired by Kikuoka's Underworld experiment) and virtual reality devices, such as the Vault 112 "Tranquility Lane", the Operation Anchorage simulator, the bomber plane simulator the US Air Force, and later Boomers, use, and the Memory Lounger as used by Dr. Amari. Yui were mindwiped and converted to PAM, while Alice were mindwiped and converted to Assaultron. Kikuoka were then reassigned to the CIT, given the same life-extending systems as Mr. House, and later becoming the first Father of the Institute, inspiring the creation of the synth, and then, in his dying days, hire Kellogg to find a replacement Father.
** There is also the fact that most robots and AI in the Fallout-verse were personable and logical, as if they're "bottom-up" (self-learning) instead of "top-down" (pre-programmed).

[[WMG: The V.A.T.S. is an attempt at copying [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Hokuto Shinken]]....[[GunFu with]] [[GunKata guns]]]]
''Fist of the North Star'' takes place in a post-apocalyptic Japan. It isn't hard to imagine tales of Kenshiro's exploits would spread overseas. American {{Action Survivor}}s would very much be interested in a quicker and easier way to kill in a world where killing is most often living, and so tried to replicate Hokuto Shinken through technological means.

Think about it. In ''Fallout'' you had to retrieve a water chip, in Fallout 2 [[TheGovernment The Enclave]] was trying to poison the water, in Fallout 3 you had to bring clean water to the Capital Wasteland (and The Enclave was trying to poison it again), and in VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas you had to help a faction take over Hoover Dam (how that relates to water is [[CaptainObvious obvious]]). So, the next installment of the series will involve water.

* Actually, alot of other video games follow the same template, So, I doubt it's meant to be criticism of the Iraq war because you see the same story in the Elder Scrolls (Daggerfall, Skyrim) and older Fallout games (Fo3, Fo1). It's a very common plot structure used by various different medium.

** A more {{Squick}}ful, yet not unrealistic option, is that they are indeed maintaining their population ''naturally''. Lamplighters don't get exiled to Bigtown until they hit 18, yet puberty -- functional puberty, at that -- hits several years before that. Sometimes as early as 11 or 12. Between the hormones, and the fact that it's extremely doubtful that they have contraception, it really isn't impossible that any female Lamplighter has already had a couple of kids by the time she's grown old enough that it's time for her to go to Bigtown. Yeah, that sort of thing is highly illegal in our world, but these are a bunch of kids living in what [=MacCready=] himself calls "fucking anarchy" and who've been in a hole in the ground for two centuries without any form of adult supervision. If nobody's going to stop them, those kids that are old enough doubtlessly have sex, and once she's had her first ovulation, she can have her first child. Something similar happens in ''MadMax: Beyond Thunderdome'', where it's stated that the youngest children were all born from couplings between the older ones -- there's a pregnant 16-year-old girl who already has at least one baby old enough to be a toddler, who gets pointed out to Max when he's being told about how The Tribe got started. Still doesn't explain why the Super Mutants don't try and grab all the kids they can, though.

No, really, I'm not just spouting EpilepticTrees. The opening cinematic for Fallout 2 describes the Great War as a tribal mystic would understand it, talking about great tribes killing each other with spears of nuclear fire, turning their spirits into part of the background radiation. At first it just sounds like the MadMax homage it probably is, until you consider [[FunctionalMagic ghosts, psychics, and angry cosmic horrors]] have tangible power in the Fallout universe. And the Great War made billons of angry ghosts in the span of a few hours.

[[WMG: The power armour worn by [[VideoGame/FalloutTactics the Midwestern Brotherhood]] was built by the Enclave.]]
It's occasionally noted that the Brotherhood of Steel contingent dispatched to the Midwest in FO Tactics ended up wearing power armour of a completely different model to the T-51bs the West Coast Brotherhood wore, despite explicitly not having the resources to manufacture such an entirely new armoury. It's possible, though, that they didn't build them themselves. Rather, they simply found them, possibly mothballed in the facilities that they would later spruce up and use as their various command bunkers over the course of the game, and were able to restore them to working order by cannibalising their T-51bs, which had been damaged in the downing of their airship.

Their good fortune is thanks to the Enclave. After the Great War, the parts of the US government that would become (or already had become) the Enclave sealed themselves away and kept up work on power armour development. Rather than continue to refine the T-series, they instead started on a new line - for the sake of argument, let's call it the V-Series. None of these models were much of an improvement on existing technology, but they were at least sufficient for duty out in the Wasteland. One such mission was to Illinois to secure Vault Zero and the Calculator, and either the troops sent out were clad in V-Series armour or the Enclave established an outpost in the area that was responsible for its development. Eventually they decided that Vault Zero wasn't worth trying to secure for whatever reason - maybe they didn't have the resources to deal with the Reavers, the Super Mutants, et al., maybe they caught wind of the BoS airship approaching and didn't fancy tangling with them - and so they pulled out of the Midwest, leaving only an armoury of V-Series PA suits that they didn't have room to take with them.

This also ties into [[VideoGame/Fallout3 Fallout 3]], where the Enclave is equipped with armour that looks nothing like the X-01 armour they were wearing in [[VideoGame/Fallout2 FO2]] - but it DOES look like the Midwestern Brotherhood's armour. It may be that the X-01 was developed on the West Coast - maybe at Navarro, maybe on the Oil Rig - and the creation of such a clear technological advantage over the Brotherhood's T-51, combined with the Brotherhood's decline since the defeat of the Unity, finally gave the Enclave the confidence to come out of the shadows and begin operating much more openly (and maybe even send some missions out to the Commonwealth, hence the presence of X-01 armour over there). Alas, not only did they get smacked back down by the Chosen One for their trouble, but the ensuing war with the NCR destroyed not only their presence in California, but also their capacity to build and maintain X-01 armour, and thus the Capital Wasteland contingent of the Enclave were forced to rely on the older V-Series armour.

I have contemplated a Metro2033 fanfic about a thinly veiled expy of the NCR, a faction that managed to get civilization together once again, located along the Baikalo-Amur Mainline.

** Regarding Australia (and as an Australian) I think it's fair to say we probably would have been wiped out one way or the other. We're a major resource exporter including natural gas, coal and uranium. I'd guess that either we'd have been conquered for our natural resources or we'd have allied with the US in exchange for letting them use us as a nuclear missile base (giving the US a better base to strike out against Asia). Either way, we'd be targeted (nuclear sites first, then cities). There would certainly be places where the bombs didn't fall but as mentioned above the nuclear fallout and climate changes would still be significant.

[[WMG: The protagonists of all the main games are all related.]]
It's already canon that the Chosen One's grandfather is the Vault Dweller, and that he has illegitimate son with one of the Bishop women in New Reno. Since not much is known about him after the events of Fallout 2, it's possible that he managed to settle down and have a kid sometime after the game, like his friend Cassidy. And that child of his grew up to become a courier for the Mojave Express, who ends up saving the Wasteland, like his dear old dad and great-grandpa before him.

To tie the East Coast protagonists to the West, there's the Sole Survivor and their spouse, who could have been everyone's common ancestor. Nate and/or Nora could have had relatives in California who ended up in Vault 13, whose descendant became the lucky Vault Dweller tasked to find the water chip. As for the Lone Wanderer, their ancestor could be another relative of Nate and/or Nora's, who managed to survive the bombs and kept the bloodline running for two hundred years. One of their descendants became a scientist in the Capital Wasteland, who had a child with another scientist. Said child was taken to Vault 101, left the vault at 19 to find their missing dad, and ended up earning the nickname "Lone Wanderer" during their adventures in the wastes.
