Description
Another overly wordy map, surprise surprise!
A map, inspired by an old Future History map challenge.
It's been a tough 21st century. Global warming bit hard, economies collapsed as lessons were ignored in favor of comfortable lies, great powers fell apart and chaos spread to much of the world. But now as the start of the 22nd approaches, the world is (shakily) at peace, people have gotten a handle on the climate changes provoked by global warming and learned to live with them or work around them, and a new prosperity based on weak AI, quantum computing, genetic engineering, and fusion power has spread widely. Four major power blocks dominate the globe, all originating in what was once dismissed as the "Third World", although the nations of Europe remain far from unimportant, and Canada is nobody's hat. New religious movements have emerged, and Russia, although too shrunken in population to be a first-rate power economically or militarily, has drawn the attention of the world with a new spiritual awakening (the Neo-Orthodox clergy are dedicated in their probity: they not only take oaths, but also implant anti-sin control chips in their brains). India currently bestrides the world, but technocratic Mexico, bio-tech fascinated Green Brazil, and the Indonesians and their allies won't let them rest on their laurels. The world moves forward into a new century...

I'm pretty much two years late to ask this lol, but can you tell me what's the goal of Indian transhumanist regime? Is it to turn entire Indian nation into post-humans to break the caste system(or in fact, to enforce it)? Or is it simply to create a system akin to Sybil System from that "Psycho Pass" anime, where brains of "objective people" are gathered to form a hive mind system of decision making?
