Middle East in 2100.
 
Had the idea of Luna, Mars and Venus being partially terra formed and settled (for Luna it was within volcanic tubes). Only for a war on Earth to effectively leave them on their own, thinking their the last remnants of humanity.

Moon and Venus are quiet hard to terraform. Moon probably outright impossible doe its low gravity,.

Mars is possible altough even that would be very slow process. IMPO massive domes are more plausible and probably easier. And perhaps the Moon could has domes witht heir own grafvity field and wtih Venus probably best solution would be floating cities on upper clouds.

Just a little thing I did; nominal GDP map of the world in 2100. US GDP per capita is ~$1,400,000, or about $300,000 in today's dollars. (The brackets given are ~$100k, ~$70k, ~$20k, and ~$2k in today's dollars.)

It's based mostly on projecting the rate at which countries move from poor (red)/middle (brown) income to high income (blue), and which countries tend to do so. Manufacturing/export-driven Asian economies, microstates or those able to leverage a strategic position, European countries in general, and oil-rich countries (or lithium-rich, here, due to its value in fusion reactors and batteries). And then, of course, the luck of the draw and good thoughtful policy, which was mostly random.

The countries which moved from middle-income to high-income on this map are: Poland, Croatia, Romania, Russia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Serbia, Montenegro, Belarus, North Macedonia, Albania, Kosovo, Georgia, Armenia, Ukraine (European), China, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Indonesia, Bangladesh (export-driven manufacturing growth), Chile, Argentina (lithium), Kenya, Egypt, Algeria, Costa Rica, Iran, Kurdistan (luck of the draw/good policy), and almost all of the Pacific/Caribbean microstates. From low-income to high income are: Pakistan, Ethiopia, Rwanda, Liberia, Malawi, and Uganda - these were mostly selected for creating a more interesting map, if I'm being honest. I did tend to prefer adjacency, thus the Uganda-Kenya-Rwanda-Ethiopia region being relatively well off compared to the rest of Africa.

Saudi Arabia fell to middle income status because it's much larger than Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, and the UAE, and thus much less able to manage the transition away from oil.

(There's a couple minor border changes for flavor, too: Ambazonia, Somaliland, Kurdistan, Abkhazia, Transnistria, Sahrawi, North Yemen, and South Ossetia getting independence, a one-state solution in Israel, and a divided Yemen.)

The map was based somewhat off of this map. Depressing as it is, I was probably too generous to Africa; no country in Africa has escaped the middle income trap, but I'm handing that over to eight countries by the century's end.
 
Want the backstory? Visit the thread for this scenario. It is the blue thing underneath this post that says "The Great War of 2050"

This is the Navy Map. This is around the beginning of 2050. However, Belarus, Pakistan, and Taiwanese navies are considered NATO, and Chinese navies are considered CSTO. Intended to persuade people to volunteer for the navy, this was posted around the Pakistani-Belarusian Betrayal everywhere. Be it NATO, CSTO, or even neutral countries. However, I removed all the propaganda and just put the labels on it (totally didn't take the original map and edit it...)

NOTE: Belarus has a navy, it is just stationed at russian ports.

From my TL Nemesis: The Belt War
The belt war is akin to WWI in older history and its scars and consequences hunt the solar system after 100 years after its end.
It was the first great confrontation between two extraterrestrial powers and was very bloody.

- More details where will given in Nemesis page
- Art is not mine: The map of the Solar System i found online on reddit
- Ships are taken in internet png storages.
- Admirals pics are not mine(I can only dream to draw so good) but are works by kimsihyun and by feivelyn on deviant art.

I'm a bit confused on how exactly this solar system works, maybe I'm just dumb but I don't understand the exact orbits and sizes due to the sizes of the planets and how everything is so clumped together.

Seige of Switzerland, the Federal capital of the European states of the UEG, Jan 2130-July 2130. The X'tahi would surround the Swiss from all sides and invade. The Swiss people and Swiss UEG army would valiantly resist the encroaching X'tahi, even as they were cut off from the rest of Europe and faced starvation. Ultimately, the X'tahi would fail to seize the capital region and in July 2130, with the help of the first AI units developed and deployed, would liberate themselves from the X'tahi's grasp.

Map of the UCSSR (Union of Co-operative Soviet Socialist Republics), 2080.

The UCSSR is the successor to the USSR, which technically ‘collapsed’ in 1991. This ‘collapse’ was caused by the government of Mikhail Gorbachev, who sought to reform the Soviet Union‘s economy and structure. He, unlike our timeline, also wanted to keep the Soviet Union alive, rather than letting it break up. He created a successor to the USSR, which would be stronger economically and would be focused on co-operation. In December 1991, Gorbachev formally declared the independence of all three Baltic nations and Georgia, as these four preferred a Western-style economy. This was the UCSSR’s beginning.

Gorbachev’s policy of co-operation meant many other sovereign states became willing to join the Union. Mongolia joined in 1998; Afghanistan in 2003, after it had crushed all rebels across the nation; North Korea joined in 2016 due to a national desire to be protected from the USA and the Republic of Korea, which under the leadership of the nationalistic man Seon Jin-yun, was leaning towards restarting the Korean War in a bid to annex the DPRK.

Unfortunately, after Gorbachev’s death in 2025, a new movement arose in the UCSSR; the Red Expansionist Movement (REM). They wanted to annex certain areas shown in orange on the map above. They continue to exist to this day, and with new government reforms that have proved unpopular with the people, these new communist nationalists, led by Mikhail Vardonev, are ever closer to declaring a New Red Order…
