In this scenario one day a massive structure of unknown origin enters our atmosphere and proceeds to the Southern Pacific Ocean. The structure is the size of Greenland and lands in the ocean. Ships from various countries move in to investigate but are unable to approach within 50 miles of the structure due to an unknown force. Aircraft heading to the structure disappear and reappear back at their bases in their hangers with the pilots unsure of what just happened. For the most part no offensive activity is shown by the structure. It just sits in the ocean. 3rd months later a very strange set of events start to happen. The Global pollution in Earth's Atmosphere is gone. All of the pollution in the oceans are gone. Certain Dictators of various 3 world countries have turned up missing. And the entire CCP leadership of China is also missing.

6 months later all over the world extinct animals from the last Ice Age are appearing all over North America, South America, Eurasia, Africa, and Australia. And many extinct plants are returning to their former ranges. 1 year later all human diseases have mysteriously disappeared. Every Human being on Earth now have mysterious nanites in their bodies that are actively combating any disease they contract. And last but not least every powerplant on Earth is replaced with a structure the size of a 2 bedroom house. The structure produces the same amount of electricity as the original power plants but have the capacity to meet any electrical load on the system. It is a this point that a signal is sent from the Structure. The message is we are from this world. We lived here 250 Million years ago. And left during the Great Dying and have traveled the Universe as explorers. We wish you no harm and only want to live in peace on this world. What we have done for you is a sign of good will. But due to the vast difference in our tech levels we can't directly interact with you face to face. But we will be here to protect this world from now on. At the end of the transmission they project a holographic picture of what they look like. They appear to be Anthrophomorphic Gorgonopsids.

After all of this is done how will the world as a whole process everything that has taken place? What do all the world governments do? How does this affect religious and secular institutions alike? What would you do?

Basically whatever happens, they have the ultimate say in it. Type 4 is something rare even in sci-fi, Stargate Ancients at their height may be somewhere in that territory, barely. It's functionally more of a technological advantage between us and them than between modern first world and isolated stone age tribes.
