Back to the old vote we go then.
This is... horrific, to say the least. A government led by incompetent hardliners during a ecological collapse enforcing a social credit system. The Tankie option pretty much.[]Plan Trotskyite Catgirls
Over time this has steadily lead to the promotion of more and more hardliners... While the old leadership was capable, the steadily rising role of the party in all governmental affairs with no international competition has led to a degradation in capability and management... The losers have now become entirely administered by party secretaries, ensuring that every aspect of their lives is run according to party doctrine.
So basically South Korea with no democracy and extremist terrorists... not the worst option here but pretty bad.[]Plan: Axolotl Cyberpunk
While congress still pretends to represent all of the citizens, in practice, the political parties are more of a shell game played by corporate executives than anything democratic... Seeing a total lack of change from anything that has happened, the majority of the population has mostly checked out of the system of government, preferring to just avoid participation... Despite this lack of interest, radicalism is rising on all sides to do something about the current government, even if the massive wealth of the planet has continued to improve living standards at a rapid pace.
So basically game over if we don't manage to get off the planet to acquire resources in order to sustain the economy. Not the worst start, but definitely quite a challenge.[]Plan Spesss hairy Not!Elves
The resource crisis is the center of any option for this series of conditions, power is in a desperate crisis, ferrous metal production is in a crisis, non-ferrous production is under tight rationing, and if projects are not rushed, a collapse away from the industrial age is nearly inevitable. These shortages have also been steadily worsened by the flora and fauna on the planet, as nothing has been well-adapted, zoonotic prion diseases are a fact of life, and everything just seems vaguely wrong. Before the advent of chemical fertilizer production, agriculture was a constant nightmare, and even now, the shortages in phosphates promise a collapse of global food supplies in just decades.
This is better than the other catgirl plan, but has its own glaring issues, mainly that governance is a pain and the economy is terribly inefficient. We also need to get off the world to acquire feedstock for our agriculture lest famine ensue.[]Plan Anarcho-Catgirls
Of course, due to the loose style of confederation and the prevalence of small island nations, there is a massive degree of sway in the direct democratic system of local and national interests, considerably altering the priorities at any given time on any contentious issues. The economy itself has been run as a series of local planning systems on the nation-state level, ensuring that each can carve out a niche in the overall planned system but also causing each of them to have a massive degree of local proprietary industry and non-standardization...Flora and fauna on the planet have not helped matters, as nothing has been well-adapted, zoonotic prion diseases are a fact of life, and everything just seems vaguely wrong. Before the advent of chemical fertilizer production, agriculture was a constant nightmare, and even now, the shortages in phosphates promise a collapse of global food supplies in just decades.
We'll have a minimal economy at the start, but the conditions on the planet are perfect for rebuilding a better society. We have a cadre of officers very similar to Ataturk, leading to what is ironically the most optimistic start of all plans. Lots of growing pains. But in the long term we can build a good and just society.[]Plan: Kronos Choked
During the war, several officers attempted to take charge and stop the slaughter, feeling an upsurge of popular support and hoping to reform whatever came after into something approaching a legitimately representative system to prevent such a war from happening again... While rebuilding should be possible due to the nearly perfect conditions on the planet and massive resource reserves in the ground, the war and exchange have both left their scars. Whatever previously existed to build up an economy has long since been converted into producing material for a total war, which then has gotten hit by nuclear weapons, leaving little but rubble and ash to rebuild from.
A very military based start, but one well suited for recovery and a stable society. This would make diplomacy very difficult, but would make for a fun game.[]Militarist Space Lizards (Terran)
The Stilanites have lived in a state of conflict for almost the entire history of the species as even the very conception of a nation-state has become what supports the military. While communitarian and vegetation, the need to defend their early settlement has lead to an utter focus on the military as a primary force for diplomacy and economics. You are taking charge of the remnants of the tertiary command loop and have become the highest-ranking officer in the world, with your only opposition, stuck in deep bunker networks. The orbitals are under your control as the highest-ranking officer remaining on the planet. There is also plenty of fuel on the world, and previously redundant bunker-industrial complexes stand ready to ensure that there is an industrial future for the species. Sure the people remember the fire that burned their homes and families but the army, navy, airforce, and spaceforce stand ready to initiate reconstruction efforts.
Thanks for the support! I'll also say that it is the most flexible, since the Dhoine society is rapidly reforming due to nuclear annihilation and the collapse of the Old Order. There are cultural imperatives of a long-lived-species, and then there is the Survival Imperative.We'll have a minimal economy at the start, but the conditions on the planet are perfect for rebuilding a better society.
