Earth

**Earth**, also known locally as Terra, is a terrestrial planet situated within the Milky Way Galaxy inside a star system, that is lazily called the "Solar system". In the vast tapestry of the cosmos, Earth stands as a unique and somewhat enigmatic world, characterized by its historical isolationism, unawareness of the broader galactic community, and a firm belief in its status as the sole harbinger of life in the universe.

Despite its isolation, Earth enjoys a degree of protection from external threats thanks to Nexonia Prime, an advanced civilization that watches over the planet without Earth's knowledge. The nevians adhere to a non-interference policy regarding Earth's internal affairs.

## Overview

Earth remains blissfully unaware of the existence of thousands of species inhabiting thousands of galaxies beyond its own. This oblivious perspective is deeply rooted in Earth's historical paradigm of isolationism, which has been nurtured over centuries. It is one of countless planets within the Milky Way Galaxy, a position that places it in close proximity to the broader galactic community. However, Earth's limited understanding and technology have left it largely disconnected from this interstellar tapestry.

This world possesses advanced technology by its OWN standards, boasting achievements in various scientific fields. However, on the galactic stage, Earth's technology is considered limited and ineffectual, which is proven once it is compared to various interstellar civilizations living in thriving planets in various galaxies.

Earth maintains its well-known continental arrangement, featuring major landmasses such as Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Europe, and Australia, along with numerous smaller landmasses and island chains. Earth's geological evolution continues to shape its landscapes, resulting in diverse landforms, including mountains, deserts, forests, grasslands, and coastal regions. The planet's varied topography showcases the effects of tectonic activity and natural processes over millennia.

## Trivia

### General

* As Earth continues to operate under the illusion of solitude, it faces an uncertain future. The day when its inhabitants inevitably come to terms with the existence of other species and the realities of the galactic community may bring both wonder and profound challenges to the planet.
* Within the EXM63 Galaxy's culture, comparing Earth to various exoplanets is often likened to comparing "a car to a tank." This metaphor underscores the vast technological and societal disparities between Earth and more advanced civilizations. In the case of Nexonia Prime or Dravin O7B, the comparison is even more stark, described as akin to comparing a "scooter to a Heavy tank." This stark juxtaposition emphasizes Earth's perceived insignificance on the galactic stage.
* Earth's understanding of physics, especially when it comes to faster-than-light (FTL) travel, is considered parochial and confined to their own planet. The concept of FTL travel is a hallmark of advanced interstellar civilizations, and Earth's insistence on their interpretation of the laws of physics as universally applicable is met with skepticism and amusement.
* While Nexonia Prime serves as Earth's protector against external threats, the Nevians adhere to a strict policy of non-interference in Earth's internal affairs. They intervene solely to repel invaders, leaving Earth to grapple with its own internal strife and conflicts. This stance reflects a hands-off approach, where Earth's development and governance are considered solely its **own** responsibility.
* Earth's perceived vulnerability and the presence of "stupid" humans make it an attractive target for malevolent alien planets like Colossus Prime and Zekyan Parnassus. These planets view Earth as an easy conquest, given its relatively low technological development and perceived disarray.
* Earth's politics and governance systems are widely regarded as laughable by most galaxies. The planet's frequent political disputes, ideological clashes, and inability to forge cohesive global cooperation earn it little respect in the eyes of the more harmonious and unified civilizations across the cosmos.
* Earth's inhabitants, driven by centuries of scientific discovery, still cling to the notion that they are the sole object in the entire universe capable of harboring life. This deeply ingrained paradigm of solitary significance has left them largely blind to the existence of other advanced civilizations and the galactic community at large.
* Earth has had sporadic encounters with extraterrestrial beings and unidentified flying objects (UFOs) throughout its history. However, these incidents are often downplayed or explained away as natural phenomena or military experiments, further reinforcing the illusion of solitude.
* Earth's isolationism has led to a profound underestimation of the diversity and complexity of life in the universe. The planet's inhabitants are ill-prepared for the day they might come face to face with the rich tapestry of cultures, technologies, and species that populate the galaxies beyond.
* Earth's perception of itself as the center of the universe extends to its terminology. The term "Solar System," lazily used by Earth's inhabitants, is a reflection of their limited awareness of the broader galactic neighborhood. It reflects an insular perspective, rooted in the belief that the Sun and its orbiting planets are the extent of cosmic significance.
* Earth's isolationist mindset is a product of its historical development, where the scientific and cultural narrative often revolved around the uniqueness of the planet and its life forms. This isolation has kept Earth at arm's length from the galactic community, leaving it disconnected from the realities of interstellar civilizations and their intricacies.
* As Nexonia Prime diligently safeguards Earth's star system from external threats, Earth's inhabitants remain unaware of the cosmic guardian watching over them. The Nevians' non-interference policy and the lack of overt interference from Nexonia Prime have allowed Earth to persist in its belief that it stands alone in the universe.
* Within the Reality 3025 universe, Earth is often depicted as a planet rife with chaos and disorganization, mirroring the turbulent nature of the real world. Its divided nations, political conflicts, and societal upheaval have given rise to a reputation as a planet plagued by internal strife. This is basically the same shit in real life, amirite?
* Despite possessing modern technology, Earth is proven as technologically inferior when compared to the advanced interstellar civilizations that dot the galaxy. Earth's technological advancements are often seen as limited and ineffective on the galactic stage, relegating it to a position of relative insignificance. This is due to a lack of FTL technology and still lacking in progress related to it.
* Earth's inhabitants, humans, in their adherence to the laws of physics as they understand them, are often viewed as quaint and backward-thinking by inhabitants of other galaxies. The assumption that the same physical laws apply universally is considered preposterous, showcasing Earth's perceived narrow worldview.
* When queried about Earth, the universal response from beings in various galaxies, including the EXM63 Galaxy, is overwhelmingly negative. Earth's reputation as a planet mired in conflict, clinging to outdated beliefs, and unable to adapt to the vastness of the cosmos paints a bleak picture in the eyes of the galactic community.
* In the Reality 3025 universe, Earth stands as a stark contrast to the advanced, harmonious civilizations that have flourished across the galaxies. Its reputation as a chaotic, technologically inept, and narrow-minded world has resulted in a near-universal disdain among the inhabitants of the cosmos, further isolating it in the galactic community.
