Quebec City is the capital of the Canadian province of Quebec and is located within the Capitale-Nationale region. On July 23rd, 1951, Quebec became the first Canadian soil to be invaded by the Chimera when the city was heavily besieged by Spire missiles that barraged throughout the day. The initial attack destroyed skyscrapers and residences alike, leaving the city into ruins before swarms of Crawlers were unleashed on the human population that survived the bombardments. Many survivors were unable to hide or escape from the Crawlers. Only very few survivors were able to survive the city while many comatose victims were recovered and rushed to overrun local hospitals.
