Well, it was actually the time of another exploitation attempt with surging terrorism in Sahel, Sahara and Arabia peaking in the attempt to exchange Europe's road vehicles per law and order with battery cars knowing for well that the source materials are resting in African soil showing no sign of fair trade.
Also, are these materials limited and in reality the amount of vehicles would decrease tremendously favoring mass-transport means while simultaneously investing into electronic face recognition.
The FRG fools you by fake promises of prosperity after minding Americans having defeated them and the GDR minds that they did not cover StaSi better.
I am sure the guys in the East, just as the Nazis one generation before, turned true freedomlovers the moment they admitted their system failure and bankrupcy becoming eager learners and students of the Yankee's Loosers.
Right???
Well, won't happen. We all go Cyberpunk 2020ies now. No Cyberware, but a lot of violance, hard drugs and surging crime career opportunities.
Enjoy...
The Kingdom of Hell
