Description
This is a political map of Earth in 2315 (165 ADH), just after Terran Unification.

Red - Sector Earth Authority (headquarters: Miami, North America)
Blue - United Earth Alliance (headquarters: Geneva, Europe)

Backstory:
Unification was an uneven process, with the majority of nations ceding power to the Sector Earth Authority (red). Some nations, however, ceded power to the United Earth Alliance (blue). The result was that about 94% of the planet's landmass is under the control of the Authority, with the remainder being Allied Administrative Territories.

By 2599 (449 ADH), the Earth Authority has become an authoritarian, bureaucratic state effectively run by a wealthy elite. Despite the best of the SEA's intentions, its territories on Old Earth are stagnating, with a declining economy. The once-glittering city-states of the Middle East are tarnished, the once-fertile plains of North America are threadbare, and the ancient cultural seats of Europe and Asia are fading. By contrast, the Allied territories are booming.

The SEA loves the Alliance, but resents its control over the few Allied territories on Old Earth. In addition, while gengineering is restricted in the SEA, it is prevalent in the Allied territories. As a result, the SEA public sees their own ailing world, and then looks across the border at the glittering and wealthy lands ruled by the Alliance.

The situation cannot last.

Allied Administrative Territories:
- Geneva, Europe (Allied Canton, site of Alliance headquarters)
- Jerusalem, Near East (Free City, site of Universal Courts of Justice)
- Singapore, Asia (Free City)
- Sumatra, Asia (Allied Administrative Territory)
- Kourou, South America (Allied Administrative Territory, site of military headquarters)
- Greater Tanganyika (Africa, site of military academies)
