The Australian Defenses and General Information [WIP]

Over the past 400 years...: Australia has become a rather advanced country over the past four hundred years, many influences have made the country a rather technologically advanced country. There has been an increase in population, city expansion and even the military. Since the Monsuta had taken control over Australia's populace, they brought their own defense system with them; although they hadn't complete dominance over how each state and country has their systems of defense running. Each city has been considered a beacon of pure energy, the mines in Western Australia and above South Australia still being rich in resources such as Uranium, allowing defense of Australia and Monsuta control to become even more supreme than many other places in the world.

As a whole, Australia has been found to have a population of anywhere between 150 million to 200 million as the city slowly expanded, becoming well over a %400 percent increase in the current population. Much of the population had been brought about by the sudden flux of Refugees fleeing from America, Japan and even The United Arab Emirates and all European countries, after and during World War Three. As many of their countries were destroyed, many of people had lost their homes and all their funding, so were forced to try and start a new life elsewhere. The entire refugee population encompasses around 1/4 of the total Australian population, half being born in Australia and the final quarter being immigrants from other countries around the world, who paid their way over through flights. Following this, there have been said to have over three million military soldiers based in total, half a million being stationed in every major capital of each state.

Military presence had been considered high, almost every state having it's own, non-monsuta based, defenses and military bases which also work with the current governing Monsuta rule over Australia to keep their defences high and controlled. Not only this, but the Australian military has currently been considered a home-operation based Military, rarely being forced to go over seas for assaults, but rather being a defense based at home. The idea of this is that the Monsuta act as a forward assault based crew, meaning they'll do the war-fighting against other countries. In rare circumstances, the Australian Military will go over seas to take main objective alongside the Monsuta members.

Scenery and Geographical location: The scenery of Australia, generally around the coast, has changed vastly compared to the previous hundred or so years, the urban areas appearing to be more technological advanced when compared to the previous state, many more suburban and city like ares being spread-out all around the coast. Not only has the suburban areas changed, but the technology of cars has changed also; it is rare that you will find a car that is found to be on the ground running on four wheels, many people have found out to be using vehicles that levitate slightly of the ground, whilst such things as train systems can run between states all across Australia, being able to travel from Western Australia to Queensland (which is on the other side of Australia) in less than an hour. For most areas around Australia, it has been found to be quite built up; around a few thousand kilometers from the South Australia coast being built up to look like one large colony, Adelaide being the centre of it all. The same goes for many other cities around Australia, too.

Over the course of the years, instead of Canberra being the capital of Australia, it was merged with the whole of New South Wales to become an entire state; therefor making Sydney the home of the Australian government and the capital city of Australia. Since 2314, it has been considered Australia's new capital and has shown remarkable changes since 2013. Overall, the city appears to have spanned at least three times the size of it's original area. The city appears to be a beacon of energy, being a grid of self-sustaining power, running underneath the entire city, that allows the citizens and powers in Sydney a constantly powered state, which even in the case of an emp, would not be shut off. The only way to completely shut off the power to this grid the runs underneath the capital is to destroy the grid itself.

As for the other cities around the country of Australia, it has shown to be that they're nearly just as advanced as Sydney. The other states, being Adelaide, Perth, Brisbane/Gold Coast, Melbourne, Hobart and Darwin have all shown that they are extremely reliant on their energy, although do not rely on a self-sustaining power-grid such as the one's used within Sydney. Although, each one has their own defense systems, which will go into more depth below.

The Defense systems of Australia

Multi-powered Defense Grid: The multi-powered defense grid is a system of pure defense purposes that has been composed both by the Monsuta and the government over a period of hundred years in making. The defense grid is an electrical based system that stems a single-line connection from each capital city, running from Sydney, to Adelaide, etc. The system works on the mixture of reishi based energy (which was introduced by the Monsuta upon taking control of Australia) as well as Electrical and human-generated power. Basically, the defense Grid is found to run under every major city, similar to the self-sustaining grid that Sydney has located underneath it; although is only used for this defensive purpose. The idea of this is to keep out the idea of intruders into each major capital. Each city has their own activation key for their defense mechanism to not harm their cities. Upon activation of these Keys, the grids activate and create a thin layer pure energetic shield that fries anything that comes into contact with it. The strength of these shields is determined by how many cities at once have theirs activated. As each city has their grids connected to each other, if two were activated instead of one, it would be much more powerful than simply one grid being activated. Each grid protection can be breached with the right amount of force applied to it, although essentially is found to be impenetrable to energy based attacks as they have been found to burn up upon touch of the barriers (this applies to quincy arrows and Ginto, such as Spregner). Below is the strength level upon each activation in every city.

• Single Grid Activated: When a single grid is activated, said city in Australia under attack will receive a layer or energy that covers the entire city, anything beyond a kilometer radius from the end of the grid is cut off from the protection. The single grid activation is capable of stopping bullets, explosions and nearly any type of fire that comes into contact with it; as well as dispelling any lightning based attacks that attempt to manipulate holes into the field. If a lower tiered character were to touch this, it could likely tear their hand open or cause them to receive intense burns on the area touched.
  
  
• Second Grid Activated: The second activation of another grid is quite useful to both the cities that have experienced attacks or wish to further help the other city under attack. Once the second grid has been activated, the layer of defense sprouts over the second city whilst drawing energy from the other Grid, and vice versa towards the first grid activated. Either one helps sustain each other in keeping the shielding grid activated. For someone to touch the barrier whilst the second grid is activated, it would likely blow their hand apart (at a low tiered level). For higher 4 tier and higher, it could cause damage to their flesh and cause permanent markings/scaring. Although, it is breakable, with enough force.
  
  
• Third Grid Activated: The third grid activated within a city around Australia begins to strengthen it even further, although once it reaches to the third grid being activated; there is much more than a defensive purpose. Once again, the defense of said grid barriers is doubled from the original second grid, although now adds an effect of attacking to it. When someone holding a trace of spiritual essence to them comes close enough, in a three kilometer radius, they will be found to have bolts of energy based and compressed currents launched through the air at them (something that could be considered similar to a laser blaster); as well as being able to become a homing beacon and track their target. At the third grid, it has shown to shoot out thin shots only. The third grid also targets any exterior electrical devices that are attempting to take down the shield or used in the assault, causing them to be shut down and stop working. This is similar to being sent out in a EMP blast, but much stronger (on some cases being able to completely shatter the device in question) which is also on a three kilometer area radius.
  
  
• Fourth Grid Activated: The fourth grid is yet again another defensive boost in terms of breaking through into the cities around Australia. Fourth Grid allows much more strength before being able to break through, although is said to amplify the size and power of said energy-based blast to track and hit their opponents. Now, they can appear to be the size of a regular car and shoot at a rate of a thousand per thirty seconds, usually being strong enough to smash through most quincy arrows if not enhanced by any means. The area in which they can shoot is also increased by one kilometre, along with the EMP blast, pushing it up to a 4 kilometre range for the lasers and electromagnetic pulse now.
  
  
• Fifth Grid Activated:The fifth grid, when activated, has proven to be on the key area in which allows a nearly unbreakable barrier power to cities that have it activated. Basically, this is amplified to the point that it has been shown to set living area on fire because the outside of the barrier is raised to extreme temperatures, ants, plants and even humans being shown to have their skin melted right off if they didn't have any means of protection against it. Although, unlike the outside, on the inside of the grid barrier; it is completely cooled and continues at an artificially created weather program; in case citizens had to live under that protection for months on end. The second part of this fifth grid is the fact that they can create small scale explosion in a fifty metre radius from the outside of the barrier create. This works as, if there's someone right up against the barrier, a small scale explosion (at will) can be launched out in an energy based blast to knock them away or obliterate them.
  
  
• Sixth Grid Activated:Once again, this strengthens the barrier to the point where it is nearly impenetrable. The main focus of this is to keep the major cities based around Australia intact, to keep a central command in power fit they ever become under attack. The sixth grid also amplifies the barriers energy blasts that can shoot out, this time exchanging the size of the energy blasts to that of a tall building; being able to even obliterate single battalions of men in a single swipe.
  
  
• Seventh Grid Activated: The final frontier:The seventh grid is considered the final tier for the defenses of Australia, allowing supreme defense over the nations capital and biggest city: Sydney. The idea of this final grid activation is that it finally causes all of the energy from other grids scattered over Australia to become drained and fill the grid located under Sydney, abandoning every other city apart from Sydney to it's demise if the enemy were to come to this level. For the seventh Grid to activate, it would take a threat near that of World War Four and a all out assault on Australia. The seventh Grid has been considered, by those who manufactured it, an impenetrable force that surrounds the capital of Australia. This final tier of grid has been kept a secret from the Australian public to stop them from feeling betraying in the cause of a war until the final grid is activated. For the field to get a hole punctured into it, it would take an incredible amount of force to actually break through. Not only this, but after absorbing all the energy from that of the other grids under the cities over Australia, there is an equivalent of those energy blasts that can level an entire city in a single strike. Although, now, the fire rate of these is lowered to one every ten posts. The range is increased to be able to strike even countries across the ocean, as far as India. The EMP blast is now knocked up to a fifty kilometre area alongside this.
  

Nano-electricity radar system: The nano electricity system that runs through the Australian defense is the ability for Australians within government, as well as those within the Monsuta, are able to detect all electrical items that enter within a ten kilometre diameter off of the coast line of all Australian shores. All though, as the name suggests, these electrical wave readers are also capable of reading the brainwave activity of those micro-nano electrical currents that happen in a persons mind for every single second in their life, which are known as Neural Impulses. This allows the Monsuta and members of the Australian governemnt to keep a constant perimeter and watch on who enters the country at any given time, having flight databases logged in their system so that they can keep track of every flight, exit and entering of every single person that leaves and enters the country.

As of the Australian event (link), the remnants of the Australian Defense System are slowly being built back up. Alongside this, the defense system undertook major damage alongside the landscape - new designs coming through from both the Yuudeshi and Shadow Fall bases to design defenses for outposts all over Australia, rather than a whole network.
