Hi All,
By 2121 Earth is a galactic space power, in terms of Gross Galactic Product, territorial extent, population and military might. Earth also controls the two wormholes known to exist, akin to the strategic importance for trade as the Suez and Panama Canals back on Earth.
The first is at La Marais a Department of the French speaking Tau Ceti System, this wormhole will take you to the Andromeda Galaxy. It and the infrastructure surround it on both sides are owned and operated by the Elharar -Horowitz Interstellar Property Development Company Plc. There are several thousand species encountered so far and several hundred colonies settled, but the only real power in Andromeda is that of the Koobe. The Koobe are a Confederacy of many different species and AI, living in vast space habitats. Technologically advanced, their primary philosophy is hedonism. The primary trades are in Earth's vast arts and literature, energy and cuisine.
The second is actually in the solar system on an Earth Trojan Asteroid called Cranmer's Rock (the asteroid was initially owned by the Church of England) and is also owned by Elharar -Horowitz Interstellar Property Development Company Plc. It will take you to the edge of Galaxy IC1101, the largest galaxy in the universe and a Duchy of the Byzantine Empire called Lafendu. This was only discovered 8 months ago, but already trade is picking up. There are colonial opportunities because the actual wormhole is in a small pocket galaxy roughly 45,000 light years in diameter and is claimed by no-one.
