The Widow leads a revolutionary group of anti-feudal fighters from her late husband's barony although nominally recognized as a baron by her peers, they do not respect her, and the contempt is mutual. An ascetic religious movement called the Totemists is also shown to exist on the fringes of society, living in isolated communities and practicing a form of idol worship. The River King and his men control water trade in the Badlands and beyond, and is considered a neutral party in the barons' power struggles. Nomads are the most common, mostly lawless homicidal bandits who subsist on stealing from trade convoys between the baronies but some live in organized clans.
Several groups exist outside the strict hierarchy of the barons.
Each clipper force is captained by a regent. A baron maintains power through an army of young men and women called clippers: highly trained and loyal warriors, clippers are forbidden from marrying and having children lest their loyalties be divided. Each baron is served by a massive workforce of slaves called cogs, as well as a prostitute class called dolls. Barons control land and monopolies over commodities like opium and fuel, trading amongst themselves to maintain the peace. In a territory known as the Badlands, encompassing several states located between the Rocky Mountains and Mississippi River, a feudal society has developed to fill the power vacuum left by the war. Some elements of technology, such as electricity and ground vehicles, have survived the apocalypse, but society now shuns firearms, leading to a reliance on melee weaponry and crossbows. In a postapocalyptic world approximately 500 years in the future, war has left civilization in ruins. On February 9, 2019, AMC canceled the show after three seasons. The series follows a warrior and a young boy who journey through a dangerous feudal land together seeking enlightenment. Into the Badlands has been described as "a high-octane sci-fi martial arts series" and as a "post-apocalyptic drama". Into the Badlands is an American television series that premiered on November 15, 2015, on AMC.
