Since you're familiar with the various post-apo universes (I will use Fallout in this example) consider the following:
WHAT IF
You have things you know about certain universe (the canon), and you're familiar with them. You want to be different. Let your imagination loose and spin your stories in the "what if" direction:

What if the Chosen One didn't stop the Enclave and now we have a real pre-war government surviving?
What if only the good ol' US of A is a nuclear hellhole, and most of the world is just fine, and people just really avoid it because it is, well, a hellhole?
What if Mr. House didn't spend 200 years stroking his ego in a fancy casino and actually used his genius and technology to actively take part in the events that transpired?
What if the people of Commonwealth succeeded in forming provisional government and are working with the Institute for a better tomorrow?
What if China wasn't really destroyed and are now en route to rip you another one?

And so forth. Be different from canon by going in different direction than it went!
