Im tempted to join this. Though I would like to know some more hard details such as limits as far as technology and the size our nations are allowed to be, etc. Small details but they may have me lean in one direction or the other as far as nation ideas go.
For the first Idea that popped into my head I was hoping to talk to Serpentine? I believe who claimed earth with that whole Wally-ish pampered society idea he has going on. I was thinking on Making a splinter faction of humans who left earth and settled in the stars. Looking at the rise of AI controlled decadence as a cancer and detriment to humanities growth and culture. They are not making discoveries, enduring hardships, having real adventures or exploration. They are simply having life and luxury spoon-fed to them and their complete and utter ignorance of the 'real world' and the wonders and Experiences it contains to be Nothing short of disgusting. They view the inner sphere as nothing less than a gilded cage, A tempting and especially elaborate cage admittedly. But still depriving Humanity of the experiences and the willpower to achieve great things for themselves.
That's a brief and halfbaked explanation but it will serve for now because I am tired and it's getting a little late.
