“
By Richard Milhous Nixon and his mother! I don't know what practices you tribespeople follow in your dens of iniquity, but in New Reno, things are changing! We are a CIVILIZED people!
”— Ethyl WrightRichard Milhous Nixon (January 9, 1913 – possibly April 22, 1994) was a 20th century president of the United States.
Background
Edit
He was the 37th President of the United States, in office from 1969 to 1974. Nixon's nickname was Tricky Dick because of his morally questionable actions. He was so popular that Mr. Nixon dolls can still be found after the Great War.
NotesEdit
- It is unknown, given Fallout's Divergence from the real world timeline, if the details of his Presidency is the same in the game timeline as they were in our own.
- Due to the divergence, Nixon may have even served as President at a different time, never been Eisenhower's Vice President, or sought another political office instead of the Presidency. Judging from the Nixon Doll's advice that it is "best to lie", he was likely as corrupt in the Fallout universe as in our own.
- The Environmental Protection Agency was signed into existence by Nixon in our timeline, but it is unknown if this was also the case in the Fallout universe.
AppearancesEdit
Richard Nixon is only mentioned in Fallout 2. A doll likeness of him can also be found in the same game.
