The setting takes place 60 years after the events of X-Men III: The Last Stand. Storm essentially runs the Xavier Institute for Gifted Youngsters, as well as running the US/North American branch of the now world renown X-Men. The X-Men have branches in all parts of the world now, as do the Brotherhood of Mutants. Though the Brotherhood is more centralized and under control of the main 'branch', which is headed by none other than Phoenix herself (yes, I know this is contradictory to the original story's Phoenix), the X-Men are more of a conglomerate of organizations allied under a central theme, which is the betterment of Human/Mutant relations and the assistance to those Mutants in need of asylum. Most of these are what make up the majority of the numerous X-Men teams, though not all participate, and not all X-Men members were in need of assistance. Some found civilized uses for their powers and were readily accepted into society and wish to help those who aren't as ... well-off.

The Brotherhood is still focused on Mutant-domination, though biding time right now as a breakout of force would spell ruin for both races at this moment, plus with the X-Men always in the way, total domination has been... hard to achieve.

...

Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters still breaths, though the passing of the Professor left everyone in shambles, the students and staff members realized the necessity of expedience and picked themselves up and went on with their lives. With Jean Grey dead, and Cyclops missing, circumstances left Storm in charge of the institute. With the help of her fellow comrades, she ran the school with an iron thumb and a gentle hand. The school prospered and eventually became well known as a place where mutants can go for help.

A few years after Jean Grey's death, the persona known as The Phoenix awoke, again. With tumult ad chaos, The Phoenix raised her host from the grave and took off. To the X-Men, they would have no idea what awaited them in the future. Phoenix, however, found a place near Magneto's side, though her intentions were not known. She eventually became a force to be reckoned with in the upcoming Mutant Wars that brought devastation and chaos to the rest of the world. However, near the end of the war, Magneto found his end, and with Magneto gone, Phoenix took up the mantel of leader of The Brotherhood. At this point, with intentions still unknown, The Brotherhood stopped it's advancement towards world conquest, and the world rebuilt itself. Unfortunately, not without consequences.

Now it is a New Age of Mutants. Mutants are still born everyday and are shunned by society everyday, but they have become commonplace throughout the world. The Brotherhood still advances its numbers, as does the organization known as The X-Men. Several smaller mutant and non-mutant factions have been created, merged, and destroyed, but none have had the vigor and success as the two organizations known as The Brotherhood of Mutants and The X-Men.
