If MCU is actually the more realistic than we imagined. It's heroes' universe without heroism: Sometimes since 2500s B.C.: Mutants' groups started, keep the secrets of power for maintaining social development; 2030s: Crisis on Asia, Crimes of U.S. Government had exposed, gag order was failed. Rebels started; 2040s: George Bush Center for Intelligence was destroyed by lava (Superhero did) during occupation by Rebels. All of the agents and evil politicians were killed. That means American conspiracy to rule the world was entirely ended. Avengers defunct again until new members assembled. ** Any of the events cause the alien powers revealed and invade the Earth. People of the Earth unite together and against them. They have to improve the technique of defense and heroes before 2070s. At the same time, Kree Empire was collapsed after civil war. The universe have to face the new threat. Sometimes debated if they need to remake the infinity stones. ** Someone launched a special signal. This ... Makes ... Eternals ... Return.
