oh wow, I haven't looked at this one in a 'while', got 'real' busy with mid-terms, was just curious though. [quote=@Mr Rage] Well there is a lot of time between now and then that real nations could ebb and flow through. At the current geopolitical rate, you are likely to see a unified European government of some sort, either the USA would have gone total isolation, fractured into smaller nations, or formed a continental government like Europe, but with Mexico and Canada. The south American continent would probably remain a collection of smaller nations, perhaps operating as a coalition or republic when at the global table. Asia is likely to be all under China and Russian rule. Africa will still be the extreme range it currently exists in. They will have the poorest of the poor and the richest of the rich. Much of Africa could have been either outright destroyed by anarctic war,while what remains usable is developed by rich foriegn developers. The middle East will likely be a glass field. A structure like this would make for enough freedom to do what you want, while still leaving enough geographic history to make it feel more real. [/quote] Was this being based on real world politics and national statuses?... Cause as it stands irl the European Union is more unstable than ever as a rising number of people start to view it as a tyrannical control scheme trying to 'force' the independence out of smaller nations and deny them the ability to 'be' independent if they don't bend knee... Though it 'was' pretty funny seeing Germany threaten poland if they don't let mass unchecked immigration in... Then poland beat them at 'their own' moral grandstanding game and demanded reparations for the world wars that germany would never pay. There's more and more people looking to break it up entirely instead of follow along with unity, and that's not even considering the rising likelyhood of centuries long-past repeating history that nobody is interested in speaking of, when the muslim holy empire[or whatever it's actual name was back then] was eagerly invading absolutely everything they could reach in that part of the world. Though yeah, America's in pretty deep these days too, though with roughly three centuries of time, that's plenty of time to drift entirely into a completely 'de-white manned' Socialist Dictatorship that runs on african black magic [yes, I have heard of the movement to abolish 'white science' and replace it with black magic] like some people are pushing for, or turn the current decline in value of freedoms and human rights into a galvanizing revolution that may bring back older values stronger than ever... As to where either could lead, hoo, only the imagination could tell... Open 'police force of the world' instead of only alleged? Walled off Fortress of freedom?... Re-enacting Wolfenstein the new order, but with transgender feminazis in charge? or maybe it'd turn into a true Orwellian horror show like some parts of europe are closing in on. >3> Sorry for the rambling, just spotted those comments when I finally looked back and I just can't resist applying my 2-cents :D
