Actually if you read the codex, it says the statue was rebuilt almost immediately.

I think more importantly, his sarcasm detector is in need of repairs.

If by "Africa" you mean "Asia", then you would be correct.

No, Asia will be the super power for the next 100-150 years. Then it will be Africa. Possibly South America will be somewhere in there as well.

For Africa a possible spot for a visit would be Ethopia, the excavation of Lucy's fossils

Now, the reason China is supposed to be the next global supepower is because of clearly observable current trends in the country's economic development.



Africa is a hotbed of political instability full of more broken governments than I can enumerate off the top of my head. Where is the evidence that any of them is going to become a superpower? You haven't got anything backing up your claim.

Simple history and economics.

Asia is the next super power due to the infrastructure AND education levels reaching levels that are sufficient. This is also linked to the reduced educational level in the fields of science and maths in the prior powers, both required for engineering/medical R&D. The 3rd factor is the low comparative cost which creates a large incentive to for good qualifications in those fields. "Hunger" would be a description for the psychological response. The final factor is a viable supply of non labor resources. 100% resource fufilment is not required but the resources must be sufficient to kick start the process

Replicating europe and america's history, this should be repeated by asia in another ~120 years.

Forgot the conclusion. This points to the next undeveloped area as one that will rise as africa. South america is interesting as they have a green revolution but stalled from there.

I am really not sure what you're getting at because the grammar in half those sentences is too bad for me to determine what they're supposed to say.

Do they even say where the capital of the alliance is? The impression i got was that the alliance is more like the UN and handles all the space based **** regarding humans while Earth is still divided into nations.

The capital of the Systems Alliance is Arcturus station. While technically Earth (and also most other human colonized planets) is still ruled by independent Sovereign nations whom the Alliance has no official authority over, the Alliance is clearly the most powerful human political body and wields far more influence than any nation does.




That said, I think if we go to Earth we should go to some completely made up city that has become important by 2183 but doesn't actually exist in 2010. If we go to Earth at all.

I agree if we go to earth it should be to some place thats made up and not some place that been used to death in other science fiction.

Here's what should happen...(this is going to be a part of my fan fiction, so don't any of you dare steal it):

Before the final few prothean survivors died, they discovered a possible way to destroy the reapers, once and for all. They hid their creation on a primitive backwater world (Earth), where it would be safe from harm, and so that the reapers could not find it.

ME3: the reapers attack earth first, you go to save the planet, and find that they are looking for something. As you fight your way through the reaper ground forces you find more and more data saying that they are indeed looking for something. You enter a massive cave, and see a strange device. It is a large four pronged device. On top of one of the prongs you see something very familiar...One of the silver Prothean orbs (those wierd floating balls)

John Shepard is also demoted/promoted to Master Chief Petty Officer. He is referred to as Master Chief instead of Commander. EDI is now in his armour.

Just so it'll fit with Halo 3's story a bit better.

Then it means either
i) you are unable to analyze.
ii) your ego is larger than your intellect.

Further explaination to you will be considered a waste of time. Good bye

No, it means so far as I can tell you didn't even talk about Africa except to say that you "forgot the conclusion", which doesn't strike me as a sound line of reasoning in the slightest.



That, and discussing the history of superpowers is hardly evidence for anything since the simple concept of a superpower was not possible for the majority of human history because it requires easy communication and transportation throughout the globe which is only a feature of the last 70-80 years or so. The only two superpowers to ever arise thus far are the United States and the Soviet Union, and their interaction is the only clear piece of history we have on the subject. One example is not a trend from which anything can be realistically extrapolated.

It'll be San Fran as a gratuitous Trek reference.

[Solomen]

Earth will probably be run from one of the mountain bunkers in the US.

[kamzor]

Well if it's Earth as in terra firma dirt between your toes er... well body-armored boot tips unless you are quarian, turian, krogan, hanar or whatever, and not the Moon, which I would have picked as it's obvious Alliance territory considering they have a weapons testing area there and has no real territorial claims in particular in the now.



Next best guess based on similar reasons. I'd go with either of the poles. Assuming it'll be a bit warmer by then that'd be alright. And if it's not it doesn't really matter. It'd be a decent enough training sight for early space. That and deserts of course. A site that would keep with the historical value, and humans are such sentimental creatures, and on earth yeah I'd pick a pole, probably the south for its landmass. Monumental buildings need monumental foundations...

I would be quite alright with this.... It would be cool to see all the architecture of the 1700-1800 combineds with holographic build boards and flying cars.

Clearly if we go to Earth we will land in Seattle because that is my hometown and I am not biased in any way.

[cynicalmicahel]

It probably won't be Earth per se, but probably some manner of huge space station built at one of the Lagrangian Points. That way they can solve easily all the issues of culture and language etc...

Who says NY is still there? Actually, if you went in depth into kasumi's DLC, you got a little bit of info about Earth's more recent escapades. Civil war, desecration of the statue of liberty, and lots of other goodies. Who says some of these places are still there after all those years?
