EARTH
Earth is a very important planet in the entire universe, even though very few humanoid species are present. Earth citizens are very diverse, and are filled with different races, sexuality, and culture, which is very rare. The planet of Earth is also diverse, and includes everything from icy glaciers to tropical rain forests to sandy deserts. While Earth hasn't contributed much to the galaxy in terms of importing and exporting due to the strict trade systems set up, they did bring in two very important things: the Common Language and Modern Entertainment. These two may be the actual only reasons that Earth hasn't been blown up yet!
Earth has a decent lineup of non-humanoid species, and enough of them are rare and weak to be hunted of prize with no danger involved.
Earth is said to be a few billion years old, meaning it is a relatively new planet, and the fact that it only got into Wandering less than a few hundred years ago means that there is still a lot of controversy over people's feelings over the extreme planet.
Earth's government is united as the United Nations of Earth (UNE) after World War 4, which takes traditions from all around the Earth, but is mainly a United States-oriented planet. Earth is strange in that it manages to stay connected even through the diversity.
History
After the year 2040, everything in Earth changed. World War III sprung up, starting over the issues of Africa. A three-way war between European Nations, the United States, and Russia broke out, soon bringing the entire world into it. In the end, the European Nations were wiped off the map, killing hundreds of thousands of people from three large nuclear bombs dropped by Russia, which led to the majority of countries siding with Russia, allowing them to take over all of Africa and what was left of Europe. This ruthless reign of Russia was stopped in the year 2135, when the United Nations declared war on Russia (ironic right?), starting World War IV, with the entire world against Russia. In the end, Russia was defeated and was forced to disband as a country, and the United Nations took over as a new government. No Earthen wars happened after this.
No more than a couple hundred years ago did a group of scientists in Australia launch a space shuttle which observed, and contacted to, different types of alien species. These are known as Earth's first Wanderers.
From then, it was discovered that these species had a love for Earthen Media, and adopted the Earthen language (English) as the "Universal Common Language".
NOTABLE LOCATIONS
- The Crater- A large crater in the ground, estimated to be about ten times the size of the Grand Canyon. This is the area where Russia blew most of Europe off the map. Located where Germany and the surrounding countries used to be. Beside the crater is a large memorial in the shape of a oval. In the middle of the oval are the flags of all the European Nations.
New New New York City- New York is still existent, despite three times it was nearly wiped out. It's still here though, and it's a large business center. Most of New York is service and business based, and it's rare for non-rich (or homeless) people to live there. It is one reason the economy has been saved numerous times.
- The Bloody Falls- The most famous waterfall on Earth. At the second-to-final battle of World War IV, Russians slaughtered thousands of soldiers and innocent citizens in Japan, having the most deaths in a single day of fighting (without the use of Nuclear Weapons). The battles were near the Shomyo Falls, and the bodies were either left to rot on the ground or pushed into the top of the falls, where for three days tinted the waters the red of blood.
- The New Liberty- After the U.S. stopped immigration for years and tried pushing away immigrants, in the year 2034 a revolt happened with Mexicans and Syrians coming together to tear down the Statue of Liberty after overthrowing the island which it was on. After this, a second Civil War almost broke out in the U.S., which in the end led to a new stance on equality for all. At the island is the fallen Statue, with a new, smaller statue of a joining of hands to represent the coming together.
- The UNE Council- Located in the ruins of Russia (which is now North Australia) the UNE Council is where the meetings between all the world leaders take place. Because of the more advanced versions of transportation, these meetings take place at least three times a month.
- The Broken Wall- During the third World War, Russia went on the offensive and tried to take over China, and they began by knocking down the symbolic Wall of China. There are various holes where the Russians blasted their way through, and while it still stands, most of it is crumbled.
- The Fallen Fields- Covering up 1/4 of what formerly made up Russia, the Fallen Fields is the location of the final battleground in Earthen history. The Fallen Fields are a large area where the UNE fought off Russia in their home, which ended in the killing of the Russian leaders and many, many Russian soldiers. While Russians did lose, the alive ones are proud that their soldiers were willing to die rather than surrender. The battlefield has no memorials in it, and it is filled with a rotten smell of death. Many homeless people and scavenging animals come here to live, and this is a no-man's land. Various (illegal) settlements are also located here.
- The Paradise Islands- With Hawaii's constant expansion, it is grown that all islands are now connected with either natural or man-made land. These islands are very exclusive after the fourth world war, and have a very strict policy of letting people either in or out. Hawaii branched away from the U.S. after the World War, becoming known as the Paradise Islands, which are very strict with whom they allow entry. Very little goes in or out of these islands.
