History
Earth-58163 was an alternate reality that existed within the Multiverse.
Rising tensions between humanity and the growing mutant community led to all-out war in the late 20th century. During the early stages of the Mutant-Human War, mutants were driven into hiding by mankind. Scattered and leaderless, the divided mutants were losing the war. Civil wars between humans and mutants began tearing apart not only countries, but entire continents. During this period of insurgency, the ancient mutant Apocalypse and the young Magneto emerged as leaders of the mutant resistance. (Civil War: House of M v1 #1)
Now liberated, Genosha would become the first mutant nation on Earth. Now a head of state, Magneto sought aid for his people. He turned to other outsider-nations, like Atlantis, Wakanda, and Attilan. While not gaining the aid he had hoped for, Wakanda officially recognized Genosha as a mutant nation, Attilan entered into a defense pact with it and Atlantis agreed to send arms and financial aid.

S.H.I.E.L.D., the worldwide intelligence and peacekeeping organization which had previously waged war against mutantkind, now serves Magneto and his family. Sebastian Shaw was placed in command of S.H.I.E.L.D. and works to assure that mutants remain in control of the world. Its top strike force was the Red Guard, which was led by Wolverine. The organization uses a combination of mutant agents, Sentinel robots, and human agents to maintain the new world order. (Secrets of the House of M v1 #1)
Overview
Kingdoms of the House of M included:
- Genosha : previously home to an apartheid regime built on mutant slave-labor, the island of Genosha was now the crown jewel of the mutant world and Magneto's center of power. He resides here together with his family and rules the world with an iron fist. (Secrets of the House of M v1 #1)
- Sub-Sahara Africa : years of deadly civil wars which tore most of the continent apart, the mutant Ororo Munroe used her powers to help usher peace into the continent. For this, the people of her native Kenya made her their queen. Ororo was instrumental in helping Magneto overthrow the human regimes of Africa, and ensured that both humans and mutants escaped the wars largely unscathed. With her help, Africa has become a world power. The continent is the world's breadbasket, and continues to be a peaceful place for both mutants and humans. Her beliefs in regards to humans and mutants have put her at odds with Magneto, and brought her closer to Wakanda, the last human-ruled nation in Africa. (Secrets of the House of M v1 #1)
- Atlantis : ruling the undersea kingdom of Atlantis was Namor, a veteran of World War II and widely believed to be the first mutant hero. Namor and his nation has little contact with the surface world. While dealing with Magnus and the House of M from time to time, it is clear that Namor does not approve of how Magneto rules the world.
