Background
In the early 2000s, astronomers made a major breakthrough in human history with the discovery of the Sigma Aquaria system south of Alpha Centauri. Within the planet was a habitable planet approximately 30 percent larger than Earth, Nova Prime. It was a massively important discovery that completely changed the landscape of astronomy. In 2029, the first warp drive was invented by scientists working for the US government. The drive quickly became one of humanity's greatest inventions, speeding up colonization of the stars by decades and allowing for quick travel to and from Earth to other star systems.
In 2036, the first colony on Nova Prime was founded by the United States. By 2090, the population grew to at least 60 million people. In that same year, rising global tensions over multiple international disputes grew to become a global war. The war escalated with the use of nuclear weapons, devastating the Earth's surface. The war resulted in the complete collapse of all nations involved in the war and killed billions of people. On Nova, the realization that they were truly alone, left to stand on their own two feet caused the collapse of order only stopped with the formation of new nations days after the nuclear war. These new nations were, more often than not, were in conflict with each other.
Information
The planet Nova is much like Earth in most respects. Water makes up a large portion of the planet, and fish is a staple food for many. Unsurprisingly, the planet sits on a treasure trove of resources which was one of the reasons for heavy human colonization prior to the nuclear war. Nova Prime is also 30% bigger than Earth.
Nations
There will be six permanent factions who will be the most powerful on the planet and those who can exert influence on a global scale.
