Summary
Imagine Hitler. The historical Kalki is a similar character that caused a lot of damage and destruction on the last great war but was defeated after heavy losses; his body was never found nor was there any confirmation that he had died. The great war is similar to how we perceive world war 2.

This leads to two sets of factions -
 * 1) Nihilists - They are the stand in for the major organised religion. Amalgamated from most of the major religions, they are peaceful fundamentalists. They believe that the end of the universe will come, whether by man's hand or by natural causes. They also believe that the Historical Kalki is but one in series of Kalkis to come and that he is most likely dead.
 * 2) ISIS - They are what ISIS are to us. A current organisation largely opposed to how the world is progressing. They are the violent extremists that grew from the Nihilists. They split because they believe that the end will not come unless prompted by us. The end is necessary for the universe to evolve and continue and unless they induce it, it will stagnate. They also do not believe that the Historical Kalki is not really dead, but will rise again (a la armageddon), to lead them. They now believe the Current Kalki is the same person and take orders from him via the Lieutenants to bring about the End Event.
