Earth

**Earth** is the third planet from the Sun and the only astronomical object known to harbor life in the Solar System. According to radiometric dating and other evidence, Earth formed over 4.5 billion years ago. Earth's gravity interacts with other objects in space, especially the Sun and the Moon, which is Earth's only natural satellite.

Earth is the birthplace of the Japanese islands and the continent of Mu, both now magically moved to the New World.

## Before the transference of Japan

Before Japan was transferred to the New World, the country was an ally of the United States of America and one of the top technological powerhouse on Earth, if not the most technologically advanced nation of the planet of Earth due to its massive innovation and being a pioneer in the field of robotics and computer science.

Despite it military is not at the level of Superpowers like US, Russia, China, India, France or UK, the JSDF is still one of the most formidable army on the planet.

## Possible effects on Earth after the transference of Japan

There are several effects of the disappearance of Japan back on Earth.

### Political Aspects

* US will suffer as they lose a strong ally in the Pacific to keep China in check
* The US military will be weakened to some extend as they lose a huge proportion of their military assets as the 7th Fleet and all US military personnel stationed in Japan have been transferred to the New World.

* The world will lose an important trade partner and UN member.

* China will gain more power in Asia

### Technological Aspects

* The world technology will advance slower since Japan dominates a lot of technological fields, especially robotics, computer science, and manufacturing -> No more new Nintendo, Sony Smartphones or robots.

* US will rise to be the most technologically advanced in the world by taking Japan's vacant seat.

* Technology quality will be dropped considerably due Japan holds the highest quality of the product when it comes to the product in the world.

### Economic Aspects

* Most foreign investors will lose their investment in Japan

* The stock market will plummet as stock traders and foreign exchange traders lose their investment in Japanese companies and the Yen, creating economic depression.

* A lot of foreign companies will prosper, especially cars, computers, and the robotics industry will make a larger profit as tons of their strong competitors from Japan disappear.

* The economic balance on East Asia will plummet as China is the sole country that can dominate the Asia market, following the chance of global recession due to some countries that may rely on Japan's technology that can increase the economy rate. Asia will be the first continent to enter the economic recession.

* The quality in the global overall becomes lowered, including non-technology quality such as cuisine, forcing countries that rely on Japan's product due to quality to seek out another country that owns an identical product to Japan, causing considerable turmoil in the economic aspect.
* Possibility of a temporary economical recession on a global scale.

### Social Aspects

* No more anime, manga or video games for the world population.

* No more original sushi, ramen or other delicious Japanese cuisines.

## New World People's Perspective about Earth

Due to the warring ethnocentrism of the New World, most New World people, especially Mu, assume that the Earth is like the New World, extremely hostile and full of warlike nations due to the presence of Superpowers like the US, China, Russia. Consequently, Japan is somewhat admired due to having survived and thrived in an assumed hostile world full of nations with extremely devastating technology and military. However, unknown to them, the Earth is much more peaceful than the New World due to the presence of the United Nations (UN) and other international organizations along with the global standard of diplomacy and international conducts to maintain the peace between nations on the planet, which were created after the bloody World War 2.

Based on the development route of JSDF's weaponry, the Holy Mirishial Empire confirms that Earth is far more technologically advanced than the New World and Earth countries can easily fight toe-to-toe with the Ravernal Empire

## Notes

* Regardless of any case, the UN, especially the US will conduct an investigation after the disappearance of Japan.
* Mu technicians describe Earth superpowers as demonic countries.
