quote taken from roma-victor.com:
welcome to Roma Victor® a non-fantasy MMORPG (Massively-Multi player Online Role-Playing Game) based in the Roman Empire, circa 180AD. Most of Europe is in the clutches of the Roman Empire. Commodus has succeeded his father Marcus Aurelius, the philosopher Emperor, and is exerting tyrannical influence. The Praetorians keep a strict and oppressive rule over the entire Empire, which is defended and (outside Rome) largely policed by the Legions. Many Barbarian outposts and enclaves exist peacefully outside Imperial rule particularly in Britannia, Gaul and Germania. These people however always live in fear of the Legions, which threaten their culture and their very existence. If they stand united, they may just hold them off.

EVE Online(finished)-

quote taken from eve-online.com
EVE takes place in a cluster of stars far from mankind’s original habitat, planet Earth. How far away, and whether or not that cradle of civilization still exists, is a mystery. Humans arrived through a natural wormhole and, gazing up upon an alien sky they had never seen, were completely unable to determine where this new world was located. From the New Eden solar system, where the gate of EVE once led to the old world, humans expanded in all directions at a furious pace, exploring and colonizing rapidly.
Then, unexpectedly and seemingly unprovoked, the EVE gate collapsed in an apocalyptic catastrophe of a scale never before witnessed by the human race, ruining the New Eden system in the process. Thousands of small colonies were left in complete isolation to fend for themselves, cut off from the old world. For millennia they endured, clinging to the brink of extinction, and only a handful managed to survive.
Of those that lasted, five were to rise up and become the major empires that, between them, hold the balance of power in the world of EVE. Today, they are known as the Amarr Empire, the Gallente Federation, the Caldari State, the Minmatar Republic, and the Jovian Empire. Additionally, the world is full of several small, independent factions and states.
For more than a century, the five empires have lived together in relative peace. They’ve continually strived to maintain this peace, as each faction realizes only too well the grave consequences of a massive inter-stellar war. Recent technological breakthroughs in FTL travel, and the ensuing increase in space travelers, have shaken, but not broken, the fragile peace... at least not yet.

Ragnarok Online (finished)
http://www.ragnarokonline.com
quote taken from ragnarokonline.com:
Once, there was a time where everything did not exist. There wasn't sand or sea, no ocean and the earth, not even the sky with his stars. At the beginning, there was only Ginnungagap, the endless void. So Allfather Ghost created the being and in the south, Muspelheim, the land of glow and fire rised like in the North, Niffleheim, the land of fogs, coldness and darkness. From Niffleheim in the north, a raging source came into being, where twelve streams came out of. They fell into abyss, separated the north from the south and then freezed. From Muspelheim, blazing sparks fell onto the ice and so ... the ice melted. From sparks coming out of Muspelheim, the Gods created the stars. They gave them names and showed each of them their way they have to fly. The Gods created nine realms, three for the underworld, three earthly and three heavenly.
