Gran Colombia is a cartoon spin-off based in its own continuity inspired by that of Universe Zero, the birthplace of the Royal Guardsmen of America. The game takes place in a unified Latin America known as Gran Colombia.
After their easily-won independence from Spain, instead of forming their own nations as in our reality, the various Latin American states - mainly to keep from being overrun by British America - united in 1811 in order to form the Latin American superstate of Gran Colombia. Not wanting to be left alone and vulnerable, Brazil voluntarily joined the union that same year.
In a twist of irony, the unprepared Army of the Republic of Gran Colombia was no match for the military of the Westward-expanding British America. In 1820 Gran Colombia lost much of its Northern territory when it was soundly defeated by British American forces in the short but pivotal Gran Colombian War (known to Gran Colombians as "La Guerra de la Agresión Británica" [The War of British Aggression]) - a war the memory of which still stirs resentment among the Gran Colombian people. This stirring collective historical (and for some, living) memory is accompanied by a persistent dream of Reconquista bubbling under the surface of every Gran Colombian alive.
The series itself starts on the 13th November 1861, Gran Colombia Day. This Gran Colombia Day is special because it marks the 50th anniversary of the union between Latin American states. However, there are forces at work trying to undermine the treasured union in order to gain otherworldly powers.
