East-Meg One

East-Meg One was a city in the Sov-Block, a huge sprawling conurbation with Moscow as its nucleus. It was similar to Mega-City One, the American mega-city centred on New York, but with an even more autocratic and repressive government. Its notable citizens included Orlok, the assassin who started the city's war with Mega-City One by poisoning the latter's water supply in 2104 AD. East-Meg One killed half of the Big Meg's citizens and appeared to be winning the war until Judge Dredd, with the help of Judge Anderson, infiltrated a Sov missile silo and nuked East-Meg One into a charred cinder. Nearly all of its 500 million citizens were killed and the city now no longer exists, with only a radioactive waste land scarring the earth where once its titanic skyscrapers loomed.

Survivors of East-Meg One have been seeking revenge ever since their city was obliterated. Their most successful attempt was the 'Day of Chaos', when they killed 350 million citizens of Mega-City One with a virus.
