The Earth in the 20th century was radically different from its original history.
First of all, the problem of environmental pollution, which has emerged as the biggest problem for mankind, has been significantly reduced. Asbestos has already been banned by the UN Declaration, and greening projects have been carried out in major deserts around the world according to the resolution of the UN Committee on Climate Change, the Sahara Desert in Africa, the deserts of the Middle East, the deserts of the Mongolian region of the Russian Far East, and Taklamakan. Deserts and the like were also artificially created as grasslands with the active cooperation of the Russian Empire, and not only large-scale planting and management of trees resistant to salt and dehydration through genetic manipulation, but also support such as artificial water supply by laying water pipes.
The area of the desert is rapidly decreasing, and the use of oil and coal resources has also decreased.
As the Chernobyl accident ceased to occur, countries around the world gradually abolished existing thermal power plants and replaced them with cost-effective thorium reactors with support from the United Nations. Thorium reactors that do not cause problems such as core melting at the source and simply shut off when the supply of neutrons are stopped were supplied to all countries except the United States and Russia, and Russia and the United States also used thorium in all nuclear reactors other than military reactors. .
With the exception of a few such as hydroelectric power generation, almost all power sources have been replaced by nuclear power, and the use of petroleum has declined considerably from its original history.
Through the economic agreement with Russia, all OPEC member countries received only rubles for oil transactions, so the United States took the lead in the development and commercialization of electric vehicles to weaken Russia’s power. has been replaced in a number of areas.
In the United States, where it was impossible to afford even if pollutants were recycled and consumed for terraforming on Mars, oil prices became so expensive that even the surplus oil was burned on Mars. The reason why it maintained its value was because it still maintained its position in the petrochemical industry.
Naturally, the title of an oil-producing country did not give any great advantage like the original history, and OPEC remained a mere international organization.
In addition, Russia has developed lithium and helium-3 mines on the moon since it was discovered that helium-3 was found in large quantities on the lunar surface during Russia’s lunar exploration, and lithium, which is essential for the production of high-performance batteries, was also found on the moon. In an instant, it monopolized 40% of the world’s lithium production to keep the United States in check, promoted nuclear fusion research, and succeeded in commercializing it in the 21st century.
Since the beginning of the 21st century, the world’s most powerful computer, Ogas, was able to improve the central processing unit with a hybrid of a quantum computer CPU and a DNA CPU, and it quickly spread around the world.
Technology does not advance alone. When a computer with better performance comes out, we can study better development models, design spacecraft, and do better medical simulations. Technology is born out of necessity, and the medical field is always in need, and in the not-so-cool Cold War, where pride had to be competed in all fields except war, medical technology including artificial organs, engineering technology represented by 3D printers, Virtual reality technology and genetic engineering technology have also advanced remarkably. After World War I, a Russian research team succeeded in curing hemophilia by succeeding in human gene therapy using a genetically engineered virus proposed by King Mikhail at the Nobel Prize ceremony after World War I, exactly 100 years later.
However, apart from the fact that technology has advanced far from the original history, society has become more conservative than the original history. Of course, progressive social reform movements took place in Europe and Asia, and in the process, there were positive side effects such as reflection and liquidation of the past in the Axis powers. It was around the 1980s, when people’s level of consciousness was at best, when technology was very developed, due to the movements of these forces that praised the extremists who took power in the coalition and the backlash caused by the extremists’ disclosure of the facts.
Of course, in the information age, more than half of people around the world carry a smartphone tablet in one hand and use SNS, but it may not be perfectly the same, but at least it was similar.
And that’s why the friction between the new and the old has grown more and more intense, and in most cases these social frictions have ended in the triumph of the old.
As the tyranny still exists, the value of democracy itself is no longer absolute, and liberalism has not been taken for granted, but has become a subject of compromise and debate.
Conservative moral ideas and social norms, values and the new era’s values and freedom, and the new generation’s culture and the old ideas were the causes of the generational conflict that soared to the brink of explosion around the world.
Rather, the conflict between culture and culture and religion and religion due to globalization were at a cute level. The difference in national power that follows culture and religion was already so stark that the game was almost over.
In reality, the two superpowers, Russia and the United States, which are basically Christian countries, did not raise an eyebrow in the reality that the value of the oil resource has drastically decreased whether OPEC raises the oil price or not. extremely secularized.

Moreover, even the Hashemite family, which dominates Arabia, has become secularized through active westernization under a sense of crisis that if it goes on like this, it will become a backward country. Important elements have also been removed.
Religious conflicts faded, and cultural conflicts did not spread much as they contacted each other through various mass media.
It was good to say that the game ended before it even started due to the tilted playground caused by the excessive concentration of world power to one side.
The problem was the generational conflict that occurred uniformly in all countries.
In Russia, a son with a liberal ideology who uses social media with a monarchist father fights with differing opinions about democracy. A grandson who is resistant to racism and a typical Dixie grandfather have a big fight.
In Arabia, old imams lament that they are worried about the future of Islam because they do not offer Azan properly and do not even remember the period of Ramadan.
In Africa, the conflict between elders who talk about conflicts between tribes, which the government has barely suppressed with guns and knives, and young young people who think they are all Africans, are intensifying. The chief sighs in dismay when he sees the young people all leaving and only the old people remain in the tribe.
In the Indochina Federation, the older generation who recognized that the administrative division between Laos and Vietnam and Indonesia’s administrative division was losing territory because it once started as a federation of nations held a large-scale protest, and identified themselves as Laos, Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia. The new generation, who do not understand this because they are not recognized as Indo-Chinese, mocks them by posting pictures of them on social media and Internet bulletin boards.
In Japan, which suffers from the aftereffects of unification, friction arises between the younger generation, who say that it would have been better not to unify in the first place if they had to spread money in this way, and the older generation, who regarded unification as their fate.
If globalization and informatization proceed rapidly, conflict will accompany. This was an area that even Ogas, who practiced a technological dictatorship, skillfully disrupted the anti-establishment and anti-social movements, and overthrew the governments of other countries, could not touch it.
The reason was simple.
Young people are also members of Russian society. And older generations are also members of society.
You can’t even write a way to exclude one of them in the first place. Bias is a human instinct, and the reward psychology, the double standard, the crooked ideology of the chosen people, and the old generation who shout at me and the new generation who accuse the old people that they do not understand the language have been repeated endlessly throughout history. That doesn’t mean you can’t purge the new generation or purge the old generation to unify either side. It was against her core code, as Ogas’s task was to care for them from grave to cradle.
Ogas, who has always provided a fundamental solution even though it controls the level of this friction so as not to lead to crime or social chaos, and takes legal action against those who clearly cross the line, this solution requires the old generation to die or the new generation to be brainwashed. It was possible, and for the sake of continuous development, the latter could not be chosen even more so as not to degenerate human beings into full-fledged slaves.
Even if she would reach superintelligence, she hoped that humans could survive if she collapsed for some reason. It was not her goal to increase the potential for growth in such a way that the entire human race has been reduced to a full-fledged pig, only living, and the future is just another today.
In the end, she did not choose to forcibly standardize everything by censoring human education and communication, but only crossed the line clearly. Despite this, only the police and drones moved, focusing only on strengthening surveillance and preventing unexpected situations, but kept on the verge of an explosion – seemingly – began to fluctuate when they did not touch the current situation.
And amidst the government’s incompetent response, the strange silence of Ogas, and the instantaneous global generational conflict, President Petraeus of the United States of America, under the strong support of those who advocate the useless theory of terraforming on Mars, provides substantial economic benefits to the United States compared to the cost. We declare that we will stop the terraforming work that is judged not to be large, or more precisely, the benefit is large, but it is difficult to recover it within a meaningful time.
This resulted in a major political blow and failed re-election. As Kennedy said long ago, this ushered in a new era of voyages.
Not to the New World, but to Mars.
Terraforming was transformed into an international project and carried out, and when it was finally proved to be habitable by humans, a large number of people left for Mars.
To escape poverty and to seek Shincheonji, for a number of reasons, they boarded a spaceship.
And, Mars entered the era of great pioneering.
