DotC Setting Explanation

at some point in the late 20th or early 21st century, the world suffered an IK-Class "Collapse of Global Civilization" Scenario now remembered as "The Great Breach". Religious texts record that this event was precipitated by a large-scale conflict - potentially an Eighth Occult War - between the SCP Foundation and multiple Groups of Interest, which led to an escalating series of containment breaches, catastrophic magical disasters, and eventually the death of most of the human population. 700 years later, most modern technology and scientific knowledge is long-lost, few (if any) modern structures still stand, and much of pre-Breach history has been swallowed up by myth and legend. Remnants of Ancient technology still exist, buried in sheltered bunkers or exclusionary sites, but most of the world only has access to things invented before the Renaissance. People now account time in AB ("After Breach") and refer to pre-Breach civilizations as "The Ancients".
