Women-Only World | RP

It has been 30 years since the first case, 18 since the great plague, 15 since the girls began to grow up without their parents, and 10 since the last man died.

The youngest woman is 9 years old, practically a child.

The world is still divided by countries, but this is more to preserve fraternity among its people than due to real geopolitical conflicts.

Society is comfortable, that's the word. They lack neither food nor services; it's a good world to live in, but one where the masculine echo of the past can still be felt.

Scientists finally found a cure and vaccine for the plague. Sadly, the last known man to have had it died two years before it was developed.

After the great collapse ended, only about 30% of the world's male population remained.

Fortunately, the cases became rarer, a few dozen a day, although it may seem alarming, it was a relief at that time after the catastrophic period that was experienced.

Society had to change.

Women began to take on jobs typically held by men: politicians, bricklayers, mechanics, police officers, firefighters, and many more.

The world, while still maintaining its autonomy based on nationality, began a truce. Presidents began to be primarily women, because the population did not want to risk their world leader dying overnight.

The birth rate was lower than the death rate. Male infants usually lived no more than a couple of months before dying from the plague.

Society returned to normal, though it slowly began to lose its men. Girls started growing up without a father, teenagers without partners, and adults watching their loved ones leave. Families increasingly consisted only of women.

A melancholic and bitter feeling began to take root in everyone's hearts... humanity was doomed to extinction.

Everything seems normal, just another day in the world, until suddenly strange cases arise. Men are dying from a rare disease that weakens them in a matter of hours.

At first, the population, in their ignorance, didn't take it seriously. It wasn't until someone decided to tally the figures that the alarm began.

Within a few weeks, thousands of deaths had occurred worldwide. All men.

All cases are the same: the patient gets sick and dies within hours.

This catastrophe was systematic. As soon as the deaths were counted, a curfew was imposed until a cure was found or at least the necessary precautions were taken.

In less than a year, women were allowed to resume their normal lives; they were unaffected. Men continued, but this was finally abandoned in the fourth month when industries dominated by men began to collapse.

Far from being a solution, this was the beginning of the end. Just one year after the first case, the great plague occurred.

For two months, hundreds of thousands of cases were reported daily. Men from all over the world were falling victim to this horrific scourge: friends, fathers, sons, teachers, doctors, singers, actors, writers, lawyers… and countless others. It was a horror, people watching their loved ones succumb to something with complete helplessness, unable to do anything.
