While there are many sides in the ongoing civil war, the largest is the United State, a cheerfully unstable republic that resulted from a military coup in the 1990's.

Starting at first in a private Catholic prison university school, the girls are soon drafted into their local State Militia as the conflict worsens for the [[FallenStatesOfAmerica United State]]. The setting features heavy tonal whiplash to resemble real civil conflicts; militia soldiers will be telling jokes one second, and then have to deal with inhuman cruelty the next. Most of BRR's Americans aren't professional soldiers, and are just trying to keep living as a nation falls apart under their feet.

* AlternateHistory: The point of divergence is vague, but it's established that the US and China went to war over Taiwan sometime in the 90's. The catastrophe destabilized the USA to the point that it resulted in a popular military coup known as the Day of Freedom.
*BlackAndGrayMorality: While many people are shown to be good at heart, the factions they fight for tend to dip into sadistic war crimes in between "liberating" towns and regions.
