The Gap

The Gap is the name of the Australian Outback.

Even the toxic air outside the dome in ‘the Gap’ has not deteriorated beyond the point of supporting human life. However many people believe that the Gap is infested by mutants and stay away, fearing that they will be contaminated.

Security in the Gap has been a top priority for the Union Security Council. After pre-emptive strikes against random Gap villages, there has been a marked increase in community taxation receipts and a reduction in economically damaging ‘scavenging’ raids.
