I’m a 37 year veteran currently employed at an Infantry training institute in Oregon. As the Operations Officer, I am required to design training scenarios based on the Army’s Decisive action Training Environment (DATE) principles. From there I gradually started volunteering my time and energy to an international disaster relief agency called ShelterBox.
They needed a training environment that simulated a post-earthquake disaster scenario, and they wanted to use the (politically sensitive) imaginary land of Cascadia. So I built that for them, here’s the link: https://www.cascadia-smartbook.com/
I haven’t written any stories about Cascadia yet, but I intend to.
It’s been 4 months since you posted this article, but if you’re still interested in the subject (or know anyone who is) I’d love to discuss world-building with them!
