===New Vegas=== The very two-sided metropolis of the Mojave and subdivided into two main factions, the Families under the leadership of Robert House, an obscenely wealthy and ambitious totally-not-Howard-Hughes Industrialist from the Pre-War years who survived the Great War thanks to his advanced life support systems and the various factions of outer Vegas, of whom the biggest is Freeside under the leadership of The King and the group of gangers of the same name, a rag-tag assortment of folks all cosplaying as Elvis Prestley. Mr. House holds an iron first over the wealth and technology of the Las Vegas Strip that he with the help of his advanced Robot Army built to be an unconquerable fortress. His aims for the Mojave is to "civilize" it, by which he means using the major power advantage his robot army gives him to enforce a free-trade zone independent from the rest of the Wastelanders. Being a true Ayn-Rand-style libertarian anarcho-capitalist with a serious god-complex, he usually views any kind of moral objection one might have to his egotistical dreams as a lack of vision. This brings with it its own buttload of problems, mainly that the people he "civilized" (The Families) self-admittedly didn't really agree to it in the first place and by the time of New Vegas tried to undermine Houses authority for very understandable reasons. The Families themselves, which House dubs his employees, are the former members of three wastelander tribes House basically forced at gunpoint to populate the Las Vegas strip some years prior are the Omertas, who were Slavers and Pimps who just continued their business under House, the White Glove Society, a bunch of cannibals whose tendencies and cultural habits turned out to be really hard to overcome, and the Chairmen, that were a band of marauding, drug-fueled raiders. The Kings that control most of outer Vegas (called Freeside) are a gang of Elvis Presley cosplayers whose boss once found a building that housed a school for Elvis Presley impersonators in the Rubble of Vegas and assumed that, in order to be so famous that other people wanted to be you, you must have been some sort of divine being and he subsequently assumed the style, music and even accent of the real deal for himself and his gang in a truly bizarre cargo cult. The Kings are both opposed to Mr. House, whom they view as the same sort of oppressive slaver as Caesar and the NCR, who step on their turf under Houses protection, much to their chagrin.
