nawwww, its not gonna be war, instead, its gonna be because of Aliens taking over the world, or maybe some huge plague in Africa that spreads into India, east asia, and the pacific.\

Well since this is over 3 years old the way this plays out has actually changed many times in my head. A friend of mine and I have actually pieced together a better story than this and it does have to deal with an alien invasion tearing the planet apart rather than a war on the planet. A plaque before 2100 may be a possibility but after 2100 it's highly unlikely with the Galactic Trade Market open on Earth remedies for a whole bunch of diseases were purchased from Alien and human hybrid races.

That's a rather depressing story. I kinda like it though. Very interesting ideas. I'm just glad I won't be around for it if it really did happen.

The right image reminds me of Mars, which also might have had continents, oceans, and the like
billions of years ago, according to science

Yeah it does sort of look like Mars. Yup, according to science Mars was much like Earth.

Just search on Wikipedia for terraforing and you'll see some pretty good renderings of what Mars looks like with water and vegetation

See, this is why Star Trek was so darned ground-breaking when it came around. Up until that time the only sci-fi out there was bleak, depressing, and dark, like this. Star Trek gave an optimistic view of the future; that mankind would rise above its imperfections and create a wonderful future.
I must say that I like Star Trek's optimism much better than this over-done "pessimistic future" idea.

That's exactly what mankind did, this is only earth's future. This does not tell the history behind Second Earth the planet colonized by earth humans. Also this only covers up to 2320 it mentions 2350 when earth was retaken by the military from Second Earth. Also this does not say anything about Second Earth, by 2350 the BHA which was set up on Second Earth. The BHA had at that time over 70 star systems in the Alliance. Most were of alien species not from human decent. It wouldn't be till after 2360 when the final enemies were driven from earth that the reconstruction project would begin. Mankind's future was put in jeopardy but mankind overcame the loss of one planet to create a new and more powerful one, which eventually expanded into a vast empire.

Well it's not really all pollution. I realized that after I wrote this but have been too lazy to update it. There is the large scale wars that happened, which threw dirt and such in the air, but it should mostly be in the air space rather than on the ground. Also that factor probably shouldn't have lasted as long as it did since during the break when earth was sort of put back together, until the Veraxo came, large ordinances were made to clean up the air.

Evaporated via the heat from all the large Veraxo ships, a good majority was taken to be used in the Veraxo ships for soldiers, coolant, and various other things. Not all was taken though a lot of that are the orange colored clouds as the planet's still getting rid of some of the pollution left from the Veraxo ships, they're not known for using clean fuels.

Religion has sort of fallen since the Veraxo Invaded Earth. Though if we did find some miraculous thing in the galaxy we'd probably send someone over to check it out.

Hehehe, yeah I've never had many people take to my artwork like this. Put up a picture of a space ship and people ooh and ahh without many comments. Put up something dealing with a tradgety that's not too far off and people question. I like that.

Yeah, but as long as you have your reasons and they seem sound there shouldn't be further questioning by most people.

Yeah it is a scary thought. Event though technically we wouldn't be around when it happened it is still in the near future. I would have written more but I didn't want to write a novel.

Nah you didn't have anything to do with it. It was overpopulation, bad economy from importing too much an an unexpected invasion before the Veraxo.
That's not an ice age, that's actually the remnants of all the pollution, dust, dirt, and explosives that went off, and it's all stuck in earth's atmosphere. Just after they managed to cleaned it too.

Ah I see, but I'm sure even after the war is won there will still be people on earth anyway. But of course the game has nothing to do with my empire anways.
