Chapter 164, The Collapsing Earth Federation

The solar system is the origin of mankind and the core of Xinghan, but it happens that in the solar system, there is also the existence of the Earth Federation.

The Earth Federation is very special. It and Xinghan have the same origin as humans. Xinghan also walked out from the earth, and this earth is the origin of mankind.

Because it is too special, the relationship between Xinghan and the Earth Federation has always been very subtle. There is an equal relationship between the two. However, because of some early events, Xinghan is also very guarded against the Earth Federation.

The two were limited to economic and trade exchanges, and other than that they did not have too in-depth exchanges.

With the rapid development of Xinghan, the void within a hundred light years around the solar system has been included in Xinghan's territory. Qin Yi plans to build this place into an old base for the descendants of Yan and Huang, laying the foundation for a more glorious future in the future.

Naturally, the Earth Federation, which exists in the core solar system, has become a thorn in Xinghan's side. Qin Yi wanted to discuss earth matters with the Earth Federation a long time ago.

Through some conditions, the earth was replaced, and then the people of the Earth Federation were moved out of the solar system, thereby removing this thorn in the flesh.

If it weren't for the fact that the Earth Federation and Xinghan came from the same origin and were both human beings, and that there were also a large number of descendants of Yan and Huang in the Earth Federation, Qin Yi would not have spent so many skills with the Earth Federation.

Just send a fleet over and capture the earth in just a matter of minutes.

As early as more than a hundred years ago, the Earth Federation also discussed related matters with Xinghan, but the lions on the Earth Federation opened their mouths and asked for too high a price.

For a small Earth, the Earth Federation originally required Xinghan to exchange not only five living planets, but also two Xinghan main fleets, as well as warp engines and other technologies. This asking price was too high.

.

Qin Yi ignored them at all and kept giving them a cold treatment for more than a hundred years.

More than a century of long time has brought great changes.

Xinghan is developing faster and faster, heading towards a powerful interstellar civilization, but the development of the Earth Federation is getting worse and worse.

The conflicts within the Earth Federation are becoming increasingly acute, especially on the Earth Federation side. Because there is only one living planet, the Earth, the population has been growing rapidly. More than a hundred years ago, there were already more than 50 billion people.

After a century, the population of the Earth Federation has already exceeded 100 billion.

A population of one hundred billion may not sound like much. Xinghan's population is in the trillions, but the Earth Federation only has one living planet, Earth, and the entire starry sky around the solar system belongs to Xinghan.

Not to mention that they don't have warp drive technology, even if they do, there is no room for development. Hundreds of billions of people are all crowded on the small earth.

But this is not the most fatal thing. What is really fatal is that the population distribution within the Earth Federation is extremely unbalanced. Although the population of the originally developed areas has increased over the years, it is relatively slow. The living space and pressure are naturally not large, but the third

world and less developed regions.

The original population base was very large, and coupled with the extremely high fertility rate, the population grew very fast. More than 90% of the Earth Federation's huge population of hundreds of billions was crowded into formerly underdeveloped areas.

Especially in South Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and South America, the population density in these places has reached appalling levels.

This is the most acute contradiction within the Earth Federation.

On the one hand, the population in underdeveloped areas has increased dramatically and land resources are extremely tight. On the other hand, developed areas are still vast and sparsely populated, and life is superior.

People in underdeveloped areas ask the Earth Federation to balance the development of the earth and allow the population to be evenly distributed in various places on the earth. However, this obviously seriously damages the interests of developed areas and has been strongly opposed by developed areas.

Under such sharp contradictions, in more than a hundred years, no president of the Earth Federation has been successfully re-elected. Almost every one has come to power and fallen, and there is no way to be re-elected.

Because it cannot satisfy the interest demands of people in underdeveloped areas, it is naturally impossible to obtain the maximum number of votes. Once the interests of developed areas are triggered, it will also be unstable without the support of these developed areas.

There are too many people, and resources are extremely scarce and tense.

If technology had not developed to a certain level and entered the space age, space farms could be built on a large scale in space. Relying on the high output of space farms, just feeding the hundreds of billions of people in the Earth Federation would be a big problem.

The huge population has also brought a heavy burden to the earth's environment. The earth's environment is getting worse and worse, and various abnormal natural disasters occur frequently.

The development of various internal regions is extremely uneven, and various conflicts are very acute. Racial issues, religious issues, etc. are constantly testing the Earth Federation.

Because there are so many problems and they are getting more and more acute, the entire Earth Federation is almost on the verge of collapse.



In the outer space of the earth, a spaceship branded with the Xinghan logo is slowly mooring towards a space port.

Inside the spaceship, Lin Ye and Liu Peiqiang were sitting near the window, admiring the scenery outside with great interest.

The earth is still the same earth, still exuding the halo of life all the time. The azure blue is like a sapphire embedded in the void. It is very beautiful and breathtakingly beautiful.

The outer space of the earth is also very prosperous and lively. At a glance, the entire void is covered by various space buildings, the most of which are huge space farms, which are full of greenery and planting. Food, vegetables, etc. are used to satisfy the huge population on the earth.

In addition to these space farmlands, the asteroid smelting factories that were very common in the past have disappeared. Because the asteroids in the asteroid belt in the solar system have been exhausted, the asteroid mining and smelting industry here in the Earth Federation has been hit hard. .

The Earth Federation does not have the ability to mine asteroids in remote areas such as the Kuiper Belt. Naturally, the once brilliant industry will soon decline.

"After more than a century, I finally returned to Earth again."

Lin Ye looked at the earth in the void outside, and he couldn't help but sigh. Time flies by, and in the blink of an eye, it has been a long, long time since he left the earth.

Returning to the hometown where I was born and grew up again, all kinds of emotions kept flooding into my heart, which made people full of emotions.

"If this negotiation is successful, it will be easy to return to Earth in the future."

Liu Peiqiang smiled and said that everyone has special feelings for the earth, especially people like Lin Ye and Liu Peiqiang who were born and grew up on the earth, and their feelings for the earth are even deeper.

"It's long past time to take back the Earth. I just hope that people like the Earth Federation won't be as loud as before."

Lin Ye nodded. The two of them led a delegation to the Earth this time, and their only mission was to negotiate with the Earth Federation to discuss matters on the Earth.

The spaceship the two were traveling on slowly parked in the space port. In the space port, Earth Federation President Hill personally led many dignitaries of the Earth Federation here and prepared a grand welcome ceremony.

The Earth Federation has a relationship with Xinghan. Although it is not too deep, they know a thing or two about what happened in Xinghan.

Today's Xinghan, the Earth Federation has long been unable to compare with them. No matter in which aspect, the Earth Federation has no comparison.

Xinghan's vast territory, huge population, powerful technology, industry, economy, culture, etc. have had a huge impact on the Earth Federation. Like a giant, it has cast an endless shadow on the Earth Federation.

Lin Ye, the second most popular figure in Xinghan, personally led a large team to visit the Earth Federation. This is definitely the biggest event in the Earth Federation in a hundred years, because it has been so many years.

The President of the Earth Federation has visited Xinghan Mars countless times, but no heavyweights from Xinghan have ever visited Earth.

The arrival of Lin Ye and Liu Peiqiang made the Earth Federation also overjoyed. This may mean that the relationship between Xinghan and the Earth Federation will undergo huge changes in the future.

This is tantamount to a life-saving straw for the Earth Federation, which is on the verge of collapse.
