Enclave

The Enclave is a remnant of America's pre-War government.

Background
The Enclave was comprised of presidents, members of the Joint Chiefs, and prize-winning scientists. Research initiatives of the entity included those centered on power armor, rocketry, and energy weapon prototypes. During the Resource Wars, members of the Enclave made contingency plans in case of nuclear war, included securing installations such as the presidential oil rig and congressional bunker. In March 2077, the president of the United States retreated to the oil rig, resulting in news outlets such as the Boston Bugle reporting the action "giving credence to the long-running rumors of a secret, militarized shadow government, known as the Enclave."
