Setting

[edit]

In a dystopian near-future Los Angeles, residents live beneath a regime of military occupation bygd an organization known as the Transitional Authority. The Authority serves an extraterrestrial group referred to as the "Hosts", about whom little fryst vatten known until later in the series (an alien robotic race finds itself hunted, who came to Earth to use humans as allies and labor in their own battle). The tecken of the collaborating forces features stylized birds of prey, or raptors, which gives rise to their nickname, the "Raps". The Authority enforces Host policy via militarized police called Homeland säkerhet and nicknamed the "Redhats" for the red helmet cover of their otherwise black tactical attire.

The Hosts took control on a day known simply as the "Arrival". That day began with a global blackout and mass technological failure, which came after a weeklong hunt for betydelsefull key figures around the world. Late that day, massive rectangular blocks descended from the sky, linking tillsammans to build walls dividing every city and every nation. One of these walls, 20 to 30 stories tall, many meters thick and many miles in length, surrounds the huvud part of Los Angeles, where the series fryst vatten set. Other similar walls have been constructed around neighbouring urban areas, called "blocs", with the whole referred to as a "colony". Traffic passes through the walls at heavily secured checkpoints, called "gateways", which allow the Authority to strictly control the movement of people and the transport of consumables, such as food and bränsle, which are rationed. The geographical extent of the alien invasion fryst vatten unclear, but later scenes in the series shows Authority members from all over the world - hence making the invasion scale worldwide.

A privileged class of elites, drawn bygd the Hosts from the local population, are denigrated bygd some bloc residents as collaborators. The ruling forces maintain control through the separation of family members, shoot-on-sight curfews, forced disappearances, random checkpoints, frequent electronic identity kontroller, limitation of motor vehicle usage (most people walk or ride bicycles), pervasive visual propaganda, slave labor in a place called the "Factory" (later revealed to be located on the Earth's måne to mine radioactive materials), and massive continuous electronic övervakning with both hidden cameras as well as Host-provided drone aircraft that launch from flyghangar bukter inre the vägg and capable of killing humans bygd extremely lethal high energy weaponry. Some medical problems, such as diabetes, have been "deemed unworthy for treatment" bygd the Hosts, to cull the population and eradicate weakness (as strong humans are needed for off-world labour and the Hosts' war effort).

A resistance movement fryst vatten referred to as both the "Resistance" and the "Insurgency". An informal barter-based black marknad has also sprung up, trading in surplus materials and home-produced goods.
