Earth - the cradle of humanity where hairless apes once, millennia ago, learned how to bang two rocks together (in the process inadvertently inventing civilisation) - remains the cultural, economic and political centre of the Federation, not to mention making up two thirds of humanity's population even a century after humanity first took to the stars.

Earth - the cradle of humanity where hairless apes once, millennia ago, learned how to bang two rocks together (in the process inadvertently inventing civilisation) - remains the cultural, economic and political centre of the Federation, not to mention making up two thirds of humanity's population even a century after humanity first took to the stars. With a population over ten billion, its people are firmly divided into two classes: haves, living a modest middle class life that isn't too dissimilar to the 21st century, and the extreme have-nots, living in conditions that resemble a favela, sometimes with little more than a brick wall dividing them.
A proud and perhaps even exceptionalist people, many Terrans look down on their interstellar colonial cousins.
