Accelerated Timeline: From the Collapse of Nationalism to OmniPass

After the failure of the Treaty of Westphalia in 1648, the world entered a long period of political fragmentation. Without strong nation-states, corporations gradually took control of governance, trade, and identity systems. This timeline highlights the key milestones leading to the creation of OmniPass, a global Citizenship-as-a-Service (CaaS) platform.

    Corporations and merchant guilds begin to control trade and infrastructure across fragmented territories.
  • 1800 - Emergence of Corporate Cities and Economic Zones

    Corporate-controlled cities and economic zones dominate global commerce.
  • 1900 - Early Attempts at Global Citizenship

    Early attempts to create identity systems emerge, based on loyalty to corporate entities or regional economic zones.
  • 1950 - First CaaS Prototypes

    Large corporations develop the first Citizenship-as-a-Service (CaaS) models.
  • 2000 - Mobility Crisis and Corporate Control

    A major mobility crisis occurs as people move in large numbers across corporate territories.
