Happens during my personal version of the MCU. After the events of "Falcon and Winter Soldier", Sokovia is increasingly shaken by the events of the blip. In its troubled times, Hydra uses its remaining resources to dominate the land and make it a new stronghold. However, a man, from the oldest and most illustrious family in the country, decides that he is tired of seeing his country being dominated by tyrants and therefore uses his great wealth and his immense intelligence to become, not a hero, but the terror of Hydra. Victor Von Doom is however considered by his people as the new Iron Man, while he neutralizes many Hydra troops, although he does not take gloves to get there. It is in this context that mutants come out of the shadows, the X-Men coming to this country so that Professor Xavier can find his old friend, Erik Lehnsherr, a long-time prisoner of Hydra, this organization having washed his brain to serve them. Doom agrees to help them free him, as he is a very powerful adversary, while Charles advises Victor on the path he should take, be a new plague to this world or a new savior. However, the man who intends to return his country to its greatness, as well as its old name "Latveria", simply intends to be Doctor Doom !
