The planet Earth is home to the Earthling, who joined Nebula United in the year 4,926. Eager to connect with the broader galactic community, Earthlings strive to prove their worth as an interstellar society. They are often described as proud, impatient, but also notably helpful. Like the Gaianights, a portion of their population is psionically gifted—about 25% in Earth’s case.

Government

Earth is divided into multiple countries, each with its own local governments and laws. In the year 3,344, early attempts at interstellar contact went poorly. Earth’s governments were deceived, manipulated, and often embroiled in disputes, leading to near-constant unrest. Matters escalated when they encountered the Tarrain, a human-geno offshoot that attacked and declared war.

The conflict forced Earth’s nations to unite, forming the Earth Government United (EGU). This body consists of elected representatives chosen by each country. The EGU oversees global policy, mediates disputes between nations, and controls Earth’s Space Marines and all off-world operations, including relations with colonies and alien civilizations.

This united system has given Earth a stronger, more cohesive identity, allowing them to emerge as a powerful and respected society.

Defences

  • Conventional Forces: Armies, navies, and air forces capable of planetary and orbital defense.
  • Levinson Network System: A satellite and waypoint defense grid that monitors all activity entering the Milky Way. It can also hack hostile systems, obscure allied fleets, scramble enemy communications, and disrupt ships depending on their technology level.
  • “Wrath of God” Satellite: A massive orbital weapon capable of absorbing solar radiation and focusing it into a devastating energy beam, able to strike anywhere within the inner galaxy.
  • Gurren Missile Barrage System: A moon-based defense platform. These specialized missiles drill into enemy ships before detonating with high-grade explosives, designed as Earth’s last line of defense.
