In a alternative 1903 the tour de France race has become the deciding factor in determining who will control France for that year. The wealthiest people of the world all send their best cyclists to compete in a race full of cheats, deceit and violence. There are two leading political parties that each try to establish dominance every year, Le Republique and La Resistance. Le Republique led by the slimy and conniving L’escargot. Driven by his extreme laziness, his end goal is to make the days twice as long, and to build a society were the rich gets richer without having to lift a finger. La Resistance led by the honorable and young commander Mini Nappe. He may be young, but don’t let his small stature deceive you. He is a gentle but fair leader that believes in hard work over everything else. He fights to make France a place where you get back what you put in, just as it should be.
