World-7's I.S.OT.s were Haiti, Ecuador, Niger, Kenya, Mozambique, Eritrea, Greece, Cyprus, Iceland, and Turkmenistan.
Americas
*Haiti: Doing better than you'd think!
*The food shortages and ensuing authoritarian crackdown resulted in quite a few deaths, but those bad times only lasted so long, when the military, underpaid and overused, enacted a coup against the government, and gradually installed a fairly liberal democracy over the span of five years or so.
*It's nowhere as prosperous as its eastern neighbor on Hispaniola was (See World-2), but it's doing rather well nowadays. Most of the Caribbean was colonized by Haiti, or one of its statelets that fled during Haiti's bad times (or, in rarer cases, afterwards). In 2216, Haiti is settling Central America and claiming the Venezuelan oil depots (oil is still a thing in most of the world outside of Iceland and parts of the E.A.U.).
*Ecuador's doing very well. It's stayed a conservative presidential democracy settling South America, and due to being very generous when it comes to settling the land, has spawned few statelets.
*There are, of course, statelets, though. The Quechua state based around Lake Titicaca is probably the most successful.
*The United States exists, founded by a coalition of American tourists and overseas military, around New York City. It's dominated by Iceland, and in fact, it has restrictions when it comes to immigration from literally any other culture. It's almost entirely an Icelandic-American hybrid these days, as it was Iceland that largely funded its beginning, and still does so today.
*Ecuador recently squashed a narcoterrorist regime on the Panamanian isthmus, and, as Port-au-Prince has politely refused to provide the money and effort to annex it, Quito will do it instead.
Europe
*Greece is the obvious power in Europe. When the I.S.O.T. happened, two things happened. There was the obligatory government seizure of the civilian fishing fleet, for one, and for two, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. 'Glad that debt thing doesn't matter anymore!'
*With the debt worries gone, life in Greece improved exponentially, and from there, society progressed.
*Today, Greece is marching forward with a two-pronged settlement strategy. There are the core territories, in the Balkans and Anatolia, and then there are the Mediterranean trade colonies, the closest thing Greece has to a maritime empire.
*The Mediterranean colonies are Greece's attempt to keep its minorities happy, and to prevent the formation of too many statelets, as they all have a high degree of autonomy.
*Greece has also helped Ecuadorian, Haitian, and African peoples rebuild the Vatican, and has purposefully kept their influence out of it. The Vatican is primarily staffed by Ecuadorian priests, and the Pope is from Guayaquil.
*Iceland's had very slow expansion. There were only four hundred and fifty thousand people on the island pre-transit, and they didn't exactly have a full quiver after that. But they've still done good work with settling Fennoscandia and the British Isles, as well as their aforementioned sponsoring of the United States. Iceland has the highest quality of life on the planet, but also a very rigorous immigration policy. Most of their immigrants are Haitian, as the E.A.U. generally snags up the more useful ones from Eritrea or the Nigerien successors. They occasionally accept large shipments of refugees during dark times, and their politicians debating letting in more Nigeriens, but the moderate opinion seems to be that Greece and the E.A.U. have it handled.
*Cyprus was annexed by Greece in the 2030s, and the Turkish state remains under Greek influence. It may not be annexed in a decade, or a century, but it grows more and more Greek with every passing day.
*The Kura river is the spot of trade between Greece and Turkmenistan, with them both having port colonies on their side of the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea respectively.
Africa
*There are two states on Africa that were successful, and two that went full fuckhole (not counting the Greek colonies in the Mediterranean and the Nile).
*Niger, a poor, unstable landlocked state with virtually no access to food that wasn't imported, fully collapsed three years after the I.S.O.T., and hasn't improved very much since.
*The Hausa State wound up being the most successful successor by virtue of having the most of the surviving military on its side, and in the modern day, it's the great power in Niger. It aims to unify what was once Niger under its rule, and now that it has access to the black market, plans to do so by force.
*The Nigerien states didn't even know that there was an outside world until an East African flight surveying West Africa discovered some odd radio signals below (2160s).
*As of the present day, the Hausa State is waging a war against the nomad alliances to the north of former Niger, and now that it's made contact with the outside world, has access to better weapons than homemade guns, crossbows, and machetes. They expect to put down the nomads by 2120.
*The other craphole is Eritrea, which went the opposite way of Niger. Their little dictatorship suffered quite a bit after the I.S.OT., and six hundred thousand of its citizens died post-transit, a third of which was caused by the Eritrean government itself.
*It expanded, however, and lost two fifths of its population as refugees fleeing to the statelets formed in India and Arabia, almost all of which were sponsored by Kenya, and now, the East African Union.
*It never reached North Korea levels, but it came very close.
*Thankfully, the very nature of colonizing and expanding through the virgin earth means that it's very easy to lose control of your citizens. And your military. Colonel Girma Kidane, a charismatic man who was an orphan of political dissidents, found out about his origins, and was turned over the edge by Eritrean government abuse. He had seen rebels lose before, however, and using contraband methods that would have gotten him and his family killed if he were to fail, he contacted the East African government.
*Nairobi gave its approval after several months, and after orchestrating an alliance with several like minded military men, they coordinated their initial rebellion with the East African bombing raids of Asmara.
*East African support meant that the war to create a more livable Eritrea was well in the process of being won by Kidane's faction. And will undoubtedly have the new state under their influence, of course, as are quite a few Eritrean citizens at the moment.
*Kenya and Mozambique were two fairly liberal democracies (for Africa, anyway) and after the initial seafood-consumption fad passed with the development of new farms, they gradually grew closer and closer.
*The East African Union was formed between Kenya, Mozambique, and three statelets in September 2148. It's the closest thing World-7 has to a superpower.
*East Africa's a very globalist, humanitarian state. This is caused by their relations with Eritrea. The formation of an underground railroad of sorts on the Shebelle River to help Eritrean refugees escape blossomed into a full effort on Nairobi's part to create new refugee homelands in India and Arabia, all under their influence, of course.
*East African politicians are the chief proponents for the idea of a United Earth, and given that all remaining nations are democracies and friendly to each other, it's an idea that has traction in leftist circles worldwide.
*Now they just have to deal with Niger. The problem is that Hausa keeps a very limited connection to the outside world. But the development of the Fajira Republic, a Fulani-dominated state downriver from most of the Nigerien successor states, gives them hope for better influence of the wartorn region.
*Oh, and there are the various statelets that formed on the Cape of Good Hope. Most are ethnic and tribal supremacists of some sort, and only Unionist threats prevent them from killing each other. They're largely still under Nairobi's influence, and two have outright rejoined the Union.
Asia/Middle East
*India's the home to around a dozen statelets formed by Eritrean refugees, all of which are under Unionist guidance.
*The Maldives are also territory of the E.A.U., so that they can better supervise the Indian states.
*Turkmenistan, the only Asian state I.S.O.T.ed has moderated since its days of having a president-for-life. It's still a pretty corrupt democracy, but it's leagues beyond what it was two hundred years ago.
*The Caspian kept it fed, and so in the modern day, it has a friendly relationship with Greece, the closest thing to a neighbor it has besides its spawned statelets, it has mostly friendly spawns, and is looking into making its way down to the Karun River to better access the Persian Gulf.
*Mecca was rebuilt by Eritrean Muslims, who decided to go for broke. Literally, as building Mecca made them a Greek puppet for several decades until they broke out of it with East Africa's help. Now it looks like they're falling under Nairobi's gaze.
World
*The East African Union is looking into forming a more permanent partnership with Haiti, which has support among many Haitians, but not as many Unionists, so that particular unification is dragging its feet. If enacted, it would likely alienate quite a few Haitian successors for quite some time.
*East Africa has landed a few rovers on Luna, but nothing more concrete than that.
*Tech is roughly in the 2040s. Space travel is an idea occasionally considered, but outside of satellites for Internet, nothing's really popped up about it. Why go to space when Earth still has resources to offer?
*East Africa, Haiti, Iceland, and Ecuador have a very tight partnership, and should this wacky 'Union of Earth' idea that East Africa's liberals keep bringing up come into effect, it will start there. Greece and Turkmenistan, on the other hand, are still pretty suspicious of the whole idea.
World-8 will contain Brazil, San Marino, Italy, Croatia, Belarus, Zambia, Oman, Denmark, Dominica, and Niue. That's the most populated Europe we've had yet. Questions, comments, thoughts?
