[edit] Political
In 2150 United Earth Government government was established, uniting all nations of Earth, thereby eradicating any causes of possible war between the nations.
In 2161, Earth became a founding member of the United Federation of Planets, and evolved to the de facto centre of the organization, as it is the location of Starfleet Command, the Federation Council, and the office of the Federation Council President.
Important political structures on Earth include:
- Federation Council President's office, Paris
- Federation Council, Starfleet Headquarters and Starfleet Academy, San Francisco
- Federation Penal Settlement, New Zealand
[edit] Geographical
Earth is classified as a Class M world, although Earth's classification borders on Pelagic (Class O), as two-thirds of the planets surface is liquid water. There are several major landmasses and a wide variety of climatic and surface conditions, ranging from tundra to desert. The vast majority of the land surface is temperate or semi-temperate.
