Olympiad

De: James Philip

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

It is July 1976 and history hangs heavily over Germania - the Welthauptstadt – ‘World Capital’ of the Europa Reich with its great Olympic Park built over the top of and dwarfing the footprint of Adolf Hitler’s 1936 stadia. Thirty years into the ongoing Cold War between the United States and the Third Reich, the Summer Olympiad is returning to the city after a gap of four decades. For the first time since the Second World War the first city of the Reich is being opened up to the world media. While most people look forward to a festival of sport, and the Nazi regime to an unprecedented orgy of positive propaganda few can guess that the churning tides of past, present and future history in the making, will violently awaken the darkest nightmares of recent history. Thus, as the Olympians toil, medals are won and lost, terror stalks the streets, nobody is safe, terrible secrets begin to surface and an American President travels to the heart of the Reich for the first time since the war contemplating the unthinkable, because that may yet be the only way to live in peace with the monstrous abomination of the Nazi Empire. History, as they say, never really goes away and now, at last, it may be that it has finally come back to haunt the masters of the Empire of Evil. What now for the children of the great generation who won the war?
