Overview
*** THIS FACTION IS NO LONGER IN GAME***
The dimension Delta Zeta 24-10 has another name for the Portal Corporation personnel: Axis America. In this sinister dimension, the Axis powers won the war and now the United States (and probably the whole world) are under its control. This dimension is militarist, hostile and dangerous, and even worse is the fact that it has its own metahuman champions, a fact that the Portal Corp explorers first and the whole Paragon City later would discover.
This dimension won an important place in the dimensional exploration history, being the place where the discoverer of dimensional travel and founder of Portal Corp, Dr. Webb, found his death after being captured and tortured by the nazi counterpart of our Statesman: The Reichsman.
After learning the secrets of dimensional travel, Reichsman and his nazi supersoldiers tried to invade Paragon City, only to be confronted and defeated by the Freedom Phalanx, who proved to be superior to the nazi supersoldiers. The battle destroyed Portal Corp's installations, and Reichsman was captured and imprisioned. Nothing is known about his soldiers, who could have escaped or have been captured as well.
The dimension vanished incomprehensibily from the game without leaving a trace during the events which took place back in I3, when the Council took over the 5th column. The dimension was replaced by the Council Empire in the mission roster and no explanations were ever given. Many players (myself included, I must say) saw no logic or reason at all in this movement; Still, Portal Corp was sending you to a new dimension all of a sudden, and that was all. No more Axis America for us, until today.
It has been suggested lately that Reichsman will eventually come back into action, so a return of Axis America (and perhaps of the whole 5th column) should not be discarded. If this new Axis America is identical to this one or not, that remains to be seen.
