Post-apocalypse

From FSFwiki

Post-apocalyptic settings are a staple of SF. These might include:

• gradual decline
• post-nuclear
• plague and virus
• some other natural, human-caused, alien-caused, or fantasy-caused disaster

In any case much of human civilization is wiped out, or greatly transformed.
