Population Boom

The **United Nations Space Administration** (abbreviated as **UNSA**) is one of the factions available to choose in TerraGenesis.

> *After the Sundering, the surviving nations of the world agreed to pool their resources into a combined, truly international space exploration effort. After a few high-profile successes and the return of a relatively stable economy, the UNSA is poised to take its greatest step yet: the international colonization of an entirely new world, in the name of a united Humanity.*

The UNSA focuses on cooperation in the form of democracy,anti-money worship and an educated populace at the cost of slower monetary gain.

The UNSA and Far-Future Institute are fundamentally and diametrically and opposed to the Horizon Corporation on the issue of Government structure and values

Having overcome tremendous ecological crises on Earth through unprecedented international cooperation after the Sundering, the UNSA has consolidated its political power and cemented itself as the organization most firmly devoted not just to humankind's survival, but also to its prosperity and peace of mind. As a result, representatives from communities and across the world have flocked to the political body, bringing with them deep knowledge of the needs of those seeking a new life outside of Earth's orbit.

While Secretary-General David Munoz represents the friendly face of the organization, and General Buzz Sullivan its strong military arm, those who've had a peek behind the curtain know that it is Layla al-Battani, the UNSA's long-serving Deputy Chief of Staff, who has laid the groundwork and pulled the strings to make their vision a reality. Quietly lauded by political experts for her work enforcing economic and environmental justice across nations, al-Battani is also responsible for the recent rapid growth of the UNSA's governor program, bringing many like-minded public figures into her inner circle.

Whether community organizers, traditional military paragons, or experts in the medical sciences, the governors of the newly interstellar UNSA coalition seek to build up and populate massive settlements on new worlds, with equality and continued scientific advancement as their foundation. While many less scrupulous experts are drawn to the fast-paced culture of private industry, Layla and her staff know the corrosive impact of greed, and refuse to repeat the mistakes which once put their home planet on the edge of ruin! For the UNSA doesn't simply seek to conquer a new world... they hope to build a better one, for all.

## Gameplay

The UNSA's goal is possibly the hardest to reach. 500 million population takes a very long time; in comparison, Horizon Corporation only requires reaching 1 billion credits, and you will likely accumulate tens of billions of credits before reaching the UNSA population goal. It is not practical to build enough Hab Domes to hold 500 million population, so you must reach habitable status. Population living outside Habs will be lost when you slip out of human habitable range, resetting much of your progress, so make sure to stabilize your planet first. Population does increase exponentially, because birthrate increases with population, so it isn't as time-consuming as it may seem towards the end.
