Why do you think that whites are always on top. Well, the blacks almost won with their RPGs and AK74s, but the Europeans had Ray Guns and mininukes so, yeah they one. A few of each of the cultures survived and were put to work by the Europeans. This went on for many generations until the slaves grew in number and escaped their masters. They burned down the armories and destroyed all the guns, which is why we didn’t reinvent guns for a long time afterwards. The escaping of the slaves angered the Whites and they went in search of them. All they found was us and the Great, the Ancient, the UGLY! Nick Parker.
