Nothing (AZ)
Whilst searching for Bagdad (café), I fell upon Nothing: Population four (4). There, I met "Old Miner" Jim who lives in the "Outback", in the outskirts of Nothing. He lives in the middle of the desert and tries to survive by mining leftover gold. He lives a hard life, consisting of work and cat breeding (white, six-toed and oversized). His main work, though, is a hard survival training, which he does in anticipation of a soon-to-happen atomic war. His training consists of: learning to sustain by eating small desert animals and insects, and to fill abandoned gold mines with supplies and weapons.
From out of his mine shelters, which he expects to be heavily populated, will arise, after the war, the beginning of a new civilization.
