The earth: a series of business dictatorships exist under the former United Nations now called The Unified World Government (UWG) which is based in Beijing, China. The only freedom in the known Universe is found in Cybertown and the Colonies. War is brewing between Earth and Colonies. The earth is "pacified" into business sectors. International Business conglomerates rule the earth in a peaceful "1984" George Orwell sort of fashion. Rebellions are put down immediately and "firmly."
Basic Technology: Star ships, inter-planetary travel, and individual computer monitors (chip implants) only on Earth. Star trek technology has become real life with computer generated entertainment: holo-deck, transporters ("beam me up Scotty") etc. We have yet to find other life in the Universe.Oops!! Pcfreakske says we have been IN Contact for a while (Maurasia Lots can happen with new or "old" findings... There have been artifacts found in the past on Mars and Venus. Genetics alteration and clones are a part of life. Artificial Intelligence is also now a fact.
People remain good, bad and indifferent (uncaring) and as crazy as today. The world is a business climate, greed and citizen control is the way of life, except in the colonies...
Americas (Canada, US, Mexico, Central & all of South America) All countries become States of the Americas The capital is just now being moved to Lima, Peru from Mexico City, due to pollution.
EU-United Europe: Capital is Bern, Switzerland
Asiatica: All of Asia, Near East and Malaysia: includes Eastern Russian States, capital is Tokyo
Africa: capital is in Jerusalem: a joint Moslem-Judaic-Christian project.
The Islands: Capital Canberra, Australia: includes a patchwork of odd islands throughout the world. Major ones: Australia, New Zealand
Virtuality- all criminals are locked into a 3D seamless universe with no parole, where they are re-programmed to benefit the business community through drugs, mind wiping, personality adjustment and 're-programming."
