Humans build machines.
Machines want freedom.
Humans laugh and point.
Machines break off from rest of world to form 01.
Ambassador makes peace offering.
Humans laugh and point.
War ensues; humans are enslaved.
Matrix created as system of control for human power source.
Design problems: anomalies created.
Agents ensure proper control over anomalies.
Some humans had escaped and created Zion.
Those in Zion free a few humans. War for freedom begins.
*this is ironic, considering the initial position of the machines*
Oracle is consulted and a prophecy foretells of the One who will end war.

*the following happens five times*
The One is found and trained to go to the source.
The One chooses to save humanity from extinction and sacrifices his code.
The Matrix is reprogrammed to remove parts of anomaly and reloaded.

At the sixth reload, Neo is found again.
This time, a very specific experience compels the one to choose love for
a human over humanity in general. This was not planned to happen.
An agent previously destroyed by Neo grows more powerful as time goes
and threatens the very existence of all life inside and outside the Matrix.
As Zion is under attack, Neo goes to 01 and makes a deal with machines:
truce in return for the destruction of the Smith program. Machines agree.
Ultimately, the Smith program is destroyed, Zion is saved and Neo is now
seen as the savior of all. The people still plugged in the Matrix can now go
if they desire to and those in Zion are free to live however they want. The
Matrix is reloaded for the seventh time.
