Civilization Number 191
Civilization Number 191 is a numbered civilization in the game Three Body, remembered for its end in the great rip, an era of gravitational upheaval that tears the game's world apart.
Civilization Number 191 is one of the numbered civilizations of Three Body, the virtual reality game at the center of Liu Cixin's The Three-Body Problem. The game presents a world where societies rise during mild Stable Eras and are wiped out by the extremes of Chaotic Eras, each new attempt numbered in sequence and each ending recorded in a closing announcement. Civilization Number 191 ends in one of the game's most violent recorded catastrophes: an era of extreme gravitational upheaval, remembered as a great rip, in which the game's world itself is torn apart, its astronomers given just enough warning to understand what is coming. The next numbered civilization begins the cycle again.
