History
Gamorra is an outlaw island nation located in the western Pacific Ocean. Originally called Parousia Island, it was taken over by clan Gamorra, who landed there in 1543. Centuries later, its tyrannical ruler Kaizen Gamorra was overthrown by the insane immortal John Colt and Gamorra Island became a factory of horrible cybernetic experiments and illegal technology. When John Colt was overthrown, Kaizen Gamorra returned to power.
Shunning biological experiments for old fashioned terrorism, Kaizen launched an attack on three major cities of the world (Moscow, London, and Los Angele), only to be defeated by The Authority. Kaizen has since returned to the global stage, only this time with promises of more legitimate political behavior.
Prior to Armageddon, Kaizen had preparations in protecting his island after having learned of the Reaper Initiative due his then overthrow. Gamorra was protected from the global devastation caused by the Reapers through it's force-field, thus becoming the only powerful nation on Earth. The island was programmed to take flight and directed to UnLondon where it attacked The Authority and their downed Carrier in order to strip the latter of it's technology in order to travel the Bleed and conquer other worlds. This was foiled again by The Authority in which the team release an Warhol Virus-infected Apollo run rampant in the inner sanctum of Gamorra Tower while separating it from the general population of the island. The infected portion of Gamorra was contained by it's force-field and was dropped into the Norwegian Trench in order for the infection to go dormant.
