Bleh, Kinda rushed this interest check but I have done plenty of worldbuilding for the starting locations, this should just give you a general idea of the world.

Welcome to Frontier Lords, a roleplay in which you play an influential person/group in the year 2168, The old orders and institutions fell apart with the rise of the TRINITY, an artificial intelligence network on earth that for over 40 years has controlled earth under a totalitarian Ecofascist government, recently This powerful AI has stepped down under mysterious circumstances allowing nations to once again grow on the surface of earth. Some groups are small clans working together for survival, others are corporations rising from the ashes to meet the needs of the people...for a price. Religious leaders give hope to the masses who have lost the way.

In space, Colonies were forced to become self sufficient creating new governments and inventing new technology. Even within a single planet multiple goverments may exist with very different beliefs and organization. Technology has also changed humanity in numerous ways, Cyborgs, AIs, Genetically engineered animals? all commonplace. While we still have not developed a method of faster than light travel we have developed engines that can take us across the solar system in a reasonable amount of time. With new technologies of course come new dangers, Terrorists creating bioweapons with a biofabricator, Superintelligent AI criminals, Space Pirates, and terrorists who can crash a starship into your planet at a fraction of the speed of light. Its a brave new world, what place will you have in it?

[hider=Planets of the solar system]

Mercury: a chunk of rock with mining and industrial stations on it, low population

Venus: an Inhospitable hellhole, the orbital installations are a Smugglers Haven.

Earth: Small nations rising from the ashes, advanced technological relics to be claimed, a land of new oppurtunities. The Orbits of earth are filled with overpopulated space habitats

Luna: a major trade hub of the inner system. No atmosphere but giant domed cities and space ports.

Mars: The first colonized world, Now mostly terraformed. its seen by many as a land of oppurtunity with many diverse groups calling the planet home.

Asteroid Belt: In the Interplanetary age many countries and corporations have lay claim to asteroids for resource extraction, some ships went rogue and created homes on the asteroids or inside a starship. a few asteroids are even run by pirates using the resources as a lure to unsuspecting prey.

Jupiter and its moons: Jupiter itself has a few floating cities and a bunch of orbital stations, the moons are the most populous in the outer system. Europa was at one point claimed by scientists who found life underneath the ice...but they cant really defend the planet can they? 

The rest of the outer planets: Much like jupiter, but the farther out the less populous you get, a few moons have large nations but mostly its just mining colonies and research facilities.

[hider=History]
The Information age: The 21st century saw the rise of the internet, vast amounts of information at everyones fingertips, Many people went to online stores and eventually Amazon got drone delivery working. New subcultures sprung up across the globe connected together with instant communication, Entire Cyber-Nations arose. The Governments of the world often sought to control this new technology as it could provide a threat to its power. North Korea eventually fell and was reintegrated with south korea becoming one nation. 

Conflicts of the early 21st century: With increases in information technology, the world became more connected but fear drove people apart. The people could not get away from information, every attack, every casualty appeared on your facebook feed. The Media capitalized on peoples fears to get more views. Eventually a full scale war broke out, with Europe and Russia moving into the middle east to Crush DAESH, Russia propped up new governments, Dictatorships that harshly punished any who critisized them. Some countries in Europe moved pretty close to democratic nationalist-fascism and police states. America mainly stayed out of the war to deal with problems back home, economic crisis, culture wars, and corruption.

Return to space: The mid-21st century was relatively peaceful, occasional terrorist activity but it was no longer something you heard on the news every day, The First Artificial General Intelligences came into being which opened up many questions about what it meant to be a person, meanwhile cybernetic augmentation clinics started popping up and in a few countries genetically engineered human beings. While many argued about the ethicallity of all of this humanity set foot on mars and then started colonizing it. 

Interplanetary Age: Space Travel was made easier with the advent of new engine technologies and growing industrial centers in earth orbit, humanity began colonizing the solar system and terraforming mars. In america The governments power had wained with the rise of independence movements and Corporations. Quality of life varied depending on the companies in the area, some areas actually went out of their way to help the poor...others had other plans. Brazil became an economic powerhouse and Mexico underwent a communist revolution.

The Eco-Wars: Global climate change was taking its tole on the environment and China could no longer support its growing population, They started expanding territory which eventually pissed off russia and India, while mexico made moves against brazil. What resulted was one of the biggest wars in human history with new weapons deployed, it even went nuclear. Three Super-Intelligent AIs, Iris, Vishnu, and Gaia created robotic armies and sided with a couple of uninvolved nations to bring peace to the world. They succeeded. What followed was a period of Eco-Fascist Rule by Gaia and Vishnu with Iris acting as an enforcer, while the planets ecosystems were rebuilt humanity had to follow the rule of the three "Gods" they had strict limits on reproduction and where you could build. Eventually The three AIs went largely dorment with only a few agents left that continued their missions. The AIs actually helped many people leave the planet building spaceships and stuff to send people to other planets. Now new nations are arising on earth.

[hider=Technology]
Technology has increased in leaps and bounds over the past hundred years, while we arent startrek level yet Expect technology to have a huge impact on every day life, everybody is probably online, cybernetic neural augmentation is fairly common, People get body-modifications to show individuality just like modern day people get tattoos. Artificial Intelligences come in many forms, some are specialized for a specific task while others are capable of functioning as a responsible decision making process comparable...or even superior to humans. High tech energy technology exists such as advanced Antimatter or Monopole catalyzed nuclear fusion along with advanced propulsion systems that allow ships to travel at high speeds. 

Technology that is on the "Cutting edge"
Reliable Brain Uploading: Uploading your brain to a computer is a difficult process, generally involving a nano-agent that converts the brain into a different substrate over the period of about a month or "emergency uploading" which took only about an hour but essentially came out as a whole new person. Recent advances allow a cybernetic mesh to be integrated with the brain that will backup your mind so that it may be transfered into a new substrate, this is even easier to do with genetically engineered humans who have brains designed to do this. Once copied the mind can be implanted into a new brain (though, a standard unmodified human brain wont work, it has to be designed to load new personalities) And life can go on. for most people body swapping is not taken lightly, it is a major life-changing event...but for a few people its common-practice, rather than flying to a new planet they email themselves to a clinic that implants them into a body.

Fabricators: advanced machines that can process raw materials and turn them into whatever the user desires, they take a great deal of time to finish and must have the proper materials in order to work. not everything can be made by a common fabricator but basically most household items can be made easily. Industrial Fabricators tend to be more complicated and require more maintenance and more energy to run but are much more versatile.

Artificial Gravity: Very new technology mostly seen in labs, allows for the creation of small scale artificial force-fields which mimic the effects of gravity, require large amounts of energy to run and are difficult to maintain at this time. 

Now, What doesnt exist yet:
FTL travel: While some experiments have been done in the lab currently no known way exists to practically create a warp drive, scientists are getting closer however with discoveries of potential ways to generate exotic energy.
Space Opera Style Shields: While magnetic shields exist they mainly keep out deadly radiation like earths own magnetic field, they cant block lasers and shit. 
Psionics: some cybernetics allow for things similar, like telepathy, but no "supernatural" psionics exist as far as humanity knows.

[hider=APP]
[b]Name:[/b] What is your organization called?
[b]Symbol:[/b] A symbol that represents your organization, can be a flag, a corporate logo or even just something that is generally associated with your nation, can be a picture or a description
[b]Core Values:[/b] Two to three words that describe the goals of your nations examples would include "Prosperity", "Freedom", "Unity","Diversity","Exploration","Compassion","Survival"

[b]Areas of Influence:[/b] Territory will be slightly abstract in this roleplay, but what area(s) do you control? do you have a giant city on mars? a few factories and office buildings? a spaceship? a space colony? keep it reasonable in size, just because you are small doesnt mean you cant make a difference. 
[b]Scope of Population:[/b]A rough estimate of the size of your population, just give me a ballpark such as whether you are just a small group of people with similar interests or something like a nation.

[b]Organization Type:[/b]How does your organization make decisions? Do you have elections? Does an AI decide? Do you vote on everything? Do you have an AI decide after it analyzes the desires of all the citizens and based on a constitution make decisions using the votes? Do you lack any formal Organization and instead work together based on common interest and make decisions in whatever method appropriate? Basically how does your government work.
[b]Economy:[/b] How do you distribute goods and services? Communist? Capitalist? Socialist? Some other system?

[b]Personhood requirements:[/b] What is considered a person? Is there a personhood test that a system may undergo in order to gain legal personhood? An example might be say the nation of "Liberty City" has the constitutional clause that any entity that communicates that it desires to take a Personhood test is granted that right unless it has failed repeatedly and is currently engaged in crime or shows signs of just being trying to spam the application center. The applicant system is cut off from the outside world (if the system is dependent on outside components, like recieves some of its brainpower from a sattelite, then it can say so and the sattelite will be added to its person) The System will be tested to see if it is capable of making responsible decisions about its own well being without outside interference. If it passes, wether it be a human, AI, or even a corporation it legally counts as a person and gains certain rights.
[b]Citizenship Requirements:[/b] What would you consider a citizen of your nations? how do you become one.
[b]Basic Demographics:[/b] A general idea of what kind of people live in your nation, do you have a particularily high amount of engineers? are most of your nation synthetic? 
[b]Culture:[/b] a general idea of what life is like in your nation.
[b]History:[/b] self explanatory
[b]Law enforcement:[/b] How are rules (if you have any) enforced?

[b]Exports:[/b]
[b]Imports:[/b]
[b]Trade Stances:[/b] Who do you allow to trade with you? what is illegal to import?

[b]Common Issues you have to deal with.[/b]

[b]Basic overview of your military:[/b] Are they volunteers? a bunch of hired thugs? swarms of robots? an actual 21st century style army? how are they equipt and how are they trained.
