██21 CE

██21 CE is a hard sci-fi speculative future set in a mostly grounded world with millenniums worth of history and no single protagonist. There's an extended universe, but all current lore pertains certain parts of Earth as I don't want to bit off more than I can chew just yet. 
It's a casual backburner project of mine inspired by the diversity within sci-fi as a genre, where I try to include a bit of every cool trope here and there, meaning that, yes, both clunky ENIAC computers that run on figurative potatoes and technology so advanced it may as well be magic exist simultaneously. I'm hoping to create more content for it one day in the form of various multimedia, like a colloection of comics or short stories!

More info
Social media has been obliterated, Maccas exists as rubble in a creek, and the English language isn't really English anymore but all is meta-translated for you, the viewers! The names of locations range from fictive to unchanged for the same reason until I can think of something better. 

Influences include Bicentennial Man, Dynamo Dream, The Pineapple War (by Lachlan Philpott), The Wings of Honnêamise, R.U.R, O Human Star, Warhammer 40k, Stray, SOMA, Mœbius, Metabarons, Griz Grobus, The Three-Body Problem, Space Sweepers, The Wandering Earth, Love Death & Robots, DRONE, Metropolis (the anime and German film), Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou, yadda yadda yadda, now it's just turning into me listing my favourite media but you get the gist.

Expect wacky names, biopunk, superficial anachronism, robots, a billion secondary characters that exist because they can, and a good ol' fist full of post-post-apocalypse with a dash of manmade horrors beyond comprehension! Yippee!

• Earth
  Humanity's home planet with a population of ≈5 billion; post climate change, nukes, and stuff worse than both believe it or not. Giant craters from past wars scar the land from the Americas all the way to Asia, with some forming new seas and biomes.
  Look out from a station in orbit and you'll be met with prominent coastal flooding and a noticeable reduction in polar ice, both resulting from major warming events in ancient times. Luckily, global temperatures have been gradually stabilising in recent centuries due to a combination of factors (widespread clean energy use, taboos, etc.).

  The first planet from the sun. Mercury sports an impressive railgun network. Now less bustling, it was once the solar system's main exporter of heavy elements a couple centuries ago, and a target of unparalleled strip mining millennia before that, drilling/leaching operations still occur around craters near the poles, however. Due to its harsh environment, it's one of the least inhabited planets in the solar system with a population consisting almost entirely of mine personnel, because of this, its government works more like a town's. It's like if an oil rig was a country.

• Jovian moons
• A few exoplanets and stations that the former don't know exist
