The Romans waged war to gather slaves and wealth. Spain built an empire from its lust for gold and territory. Hitler shaped a battered Germany into an economic superpower.
But war never changes.
In the 21st century, war was still waged over the resources that could be acquired. Only this time, the spoils of war were also its weapons: Petroleum and Uranium. For these resources, China would invade Alaska, the US would annex Canada, and the European Commonwealth would dissolve into quarreling, bickering nation-states, bent on controlling the last remaining resources on Earth.
In 2077, the storm of world war had come again. In two brief hours, most of the planet was reduced to cinders. And from the ashes of nuclear devastation, a new civilization would struggle to arise.
A few were able to reach the relative safety of the large underground vaults. Your family was part of that group that entered Vault Thirteen. Imprisoned safely behind the large Vault door, under a mountain of stone, a generation has lived without knowledge of the outside world.
And then the murders began.

Once upon a time there was a mother pig who had three little pigs. The three little pigs grew so big that their mother said to them, “You are too big to live here any longer. You must go and build houses for yourselves. But take care that the wolf does not catch you.”
The three little pigs set off. “We will take care that the wolf does not catch us,” they said.
And then the murders began.

A long, long time ago,
I can still remember
How the music used to make me smile
And I knew that if I had my chance,
I could make those people dance,
And maybe they’d be happy for a while.
But February made me shiver
With every paper I’d deliver:
Bad news on the door step,
I couldn’t take one more step.
I can’t remember if I cried
When I read about his widowed bride,
But something touched me deep inside
The day the murders began.

I was about to correct you and say that H is (four dots) not (…), but I find that Discourse won’t allow more than three dots in a row. 
Where’s your precious First Amendment now, Americans?

Come join the Warner Brothers
And the Warner Sister, Dot
Just for fun we run around the Warner movie lot
They lock us in the tower whenever we get caught
But we break loose and then vamoose
And then the murders begin

Only as part of a scientific experiment.
Vault 13s experiment was that it was supposed to be sealed for 200 years, longer than nearly everywhere else. Only Vault 101 was supposed to be sealed for longer (that we know of), but one overseer decided to temporarily open the vault early, allowing access to the PC and their father.

Boy, the way Glenn Miller played,
Songs that made the hit parade,
Guys like us, we had it made…
Those were the days!
And you knew who you weeeerrree then!
Goils were goils and men were men.
Mister, we could use a man like Hoibert Hoover again.
Didn’t need no welfare state.
Everybody pulled his weight.
Gee, our old LaSalle ran great.
Then the moiders begaaaan!

In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
And then the murders all began.

Nel mezzo del cammin
di nostra vita,
mi ritrovai per
una selva oscura…
… e poi sono iniziati gli omicidi.

A place where nobody dared to go, the love that we came to know. They call it Xanadu. And then the murders began. (It takes your breath, and it’ll leave you blind…)
Now that I’m here, now that you’re near… I’ll mur…dur…you…

We’re no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment’s what I’m thinking of
You wouldn’t get this from any other guy
I just wanna tell you how I’m feeling
And then the murders began
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all thro’ the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
And then the Murders began.
I know, US Thanksgiving isn’t even here yet, but going by most marketing…I’m a month late
