In the Museum of the Americas in DR3 I couldn’t find nothing about anyone trying to figure all the American zombie outbreaks, so here’s this one. Want to see how good I got it.
What I will define as a major outbreak, vs a minor one:
Major outbreak: one that occurs in a city with a population more than 50,000 people, or in an area that has confirmed or enough evidence of a death toll of over 10,000.
Major confirmed:
Willamette: killed over 99% of the towns population, which would mean at least 50,000 died.
Fortune City: I put this here due to the fact that most of the early infections happened near the arena. And many became trapped within. I estimated the size to be the same as either an NBA or NFL stadium, so at least 50,000 people had to be inside during TIR, so at least 50,000 had to be in fortune city when the outbreak started.
Los Perdidos: Over a million people had to be trapped by the start of DR3, and most probably didn’t escape.
Las Vegas: Chuck confirms it was firebombed and it’s also confirmed in DR2 to have been handled similar to fortune city.
The rest of the major is based of general location of where the stars on the map place them, I will be making the assumption that all of them was firebombed just like Vegas. This is using the closest city I can find to cross reference and if they have a 50,000+ population
Grand Rapids, Michigan St Louis, Missouri Waco, Texas
The rest are minor ones, these are mostly estimates/speculation due to no evidence of any death tolls being confirmed and using mostly map data:
Note: Still creek will not be put here, as it was the result of spill over from Vegas. Meaning it was handled as a part of the greater Las Vegas metro area/cleaned up under the same operation as Vegas.
East Mission, Oregon: the Oregon outbreak from the Watchtower movie, this one was set in a small town, so assuming it was firebombed, there’s a good chance still the death toll was less then 10,000. However this would be the one that caused zombrex chips to become mandatory under law so it could have been major.
The rest of these are based on location and approximate towns/cities nearby. Population is rounded up to the next thousand. (or hundred if population is smaller then 10,000) This is done take account for tourists/travelers/etc…
Becky, West Virginia: due to the stars proximity to it, and its population being 15,000.
Bolivar, Tennessee: Population is around 5,000
Oak Grove, Louisiana: population: 1600
Santa Rosa, New Mexico: population: 2700
Portola, California: I almost wanted to put this in major, as this was close to the star, however I realized it wasn’t close enough to Oregon to be apart of it. Portola was closer to the stars location, population: 2,000.
Wyoming: not even a town that’s remotely close to the area, most likely Evanston was the affected city nearby which has 11,700. However it’s still to far to be this location so most likely one of the phenotrans ones that was meant for harvesting queens. As they could have been after chips was made mandatory and used that as the coverup.
Fort Peck Indian Reservation, Montana: closest settlement of any kind to this star. Estimates say the population is around 10-11,000 people. Both native and non native. So we can say 12,000 to include travelers as well, most likely people escaped as it’s a remote area and no major town is within.
Mitchell, South Dakota: Population: 16,000, not the capital city of SD, as it’s to far east of the star, Mitchell is closer.
Ottumwa, Iowa: Population: 26,000.
**Summed up if you don’t want to hear my yapping:** Major: Willamette CO Fortune City and Las Vegas NV Grand Rapids MI St Louis MO Waco TX
Minor, but there’s arguments for potential major outbreaks: East Mission OR
Minor: Becky WV Bolivar TN Oak Grove LA Santa Rosa NM Portola CA Remote south west Wyoming Fort Peck Indian Reservation MT Mitchell SD
