Room for History

The world of Automata begins in ancient times culminating in the first true automata being built by Leonardo da Vinci in the 15th century. By the 19th century our story-world converges with civilization once again but on a grander scale. This era spans into the 21st century when the robot wars had begun and when the robot rapture occurred. By the beginning of the 24th century the A.I. humanoids returned to earth as protectors against a massive extraterrestrial invasion of the Milky Way galaxy.
