You really are going to need to read the Rifts Ultimate Edition to get the full gist, or read some of the things in the OP. Or spend time jn Chino Prison.
That said explaining is fun so here are some acronyms
CS: Coalition States. A human run dictatorship run out of the ruins of Chicago. Only recently turned into a facist state after an escalating war with magic user run states. They are possibly the strongest military force on the planet. Founded by Chicago survivors and the military elite force NEMA. They hate DBees and magic users, only employing them as exceptionally special cases. Encourages illiteracy as a means of control.
DBees:Shortening of Dimensional Beings. Any creature or entity from another dimension.
TW: Acronym for Techno Wizard. Technowizardry is making devices or infrastructure powered by magic.
PPE:potential psychic energy. Effectively magic points. Not to be confused with ISP which is Inner Strength Points, which is the magic points for psychic powers.
GB: Glitter Boys, a nickname for Rifts poster boy mech. GBs are power armor fitted with laser resistant armor plating and a heavy railgun called a boom gun. The units were so resistant that they survived the apocalypse with their pilots forming generational traditions of frontier justice
NGR: New German Republic. Germany was not affected at all by the apocalypse.
NG: Northern Gun. A prominent arms manufacturer. Dedicated to selling munitions and vehicles on the open market as strong as modern any miltary* but much cheaper.
