The great majority of the solar system is inhabited by humans now.

We mastered genetic engineering so as to weed out the immune-system problems Earth had centuries ago.
The result was an increased population such as never before. As Earth reached unbelievable population density, people migrated out into the oceans. As you might expect, conflicts erupted...
It wasn't until 2164 that space travel became a viable option. And humankind began to spread out into the stars.

Venus has been terraformed so as to become habitable for colonists, as well as other planets.
Jupiter and Saturn have monarchical governments, as well as control trade between the Inner and Outer Sol systems.
Earth, Venus, Mars, the moons of Jupiter and Saturn, as well as Neptune and Uranus', are inhabited.

Class stratifications are still present in some numbers.
Clothing is streamlined. Full mastery of genetics allows one the bodily modifications they wish - for a reasonable price - as well as synchronization with electrical/cybernetic equipment. Most people wire themselves so's to receive news as well as connect to wireless phone and internet. This hardly shows on the person.
Holographics, automation, and towering skyscrapers are the order of the day.
The internet is incredible, and transcends planetary boundaries.
Flying cars are commonplace, but most people have switched over to mass transiting.
It is a time of peace. Venus in particular has done well for itself. Religious factioning that occurred after the great shift does not affect it. The Trader's Union embargo - the current dispute Mars has with the Saturnian monarchy has had no impact on it's own economy. The government is utopian socialist for the most part.
The agrarianism that defined the 25th century dominates part of Venus. Big cities kept in check by childbirth legislation coupled with state-of-the-art terraforming and agricultural engineering make for a well-fed, well-controlled and healthy populace.
Venus has some military, but it is nothing compared to Earth or Mars.
Education is a high priority. Venusian schools produce some of the best trained businessmen, agricultural engineers, architecturalists, actors and diplomats.

People are content. They go about their business. Every day is no worse then the last, and sometimes it is better.
Or so they think.

...GALACTIC YEAR 3729...


The morning sun of June 14th, greets Provanost, eastern Venus's largest spaceport.
The city skyline towers far above you. Below you runs a gauntlet of runways and glowing airpath lines for transports. In the northern part of the city is city hall. Marketplaces can be found closer to the ground, and the Bazaar is located in the central hub. The spaceport proper is a hopskip away from that.
Transit routes run through almost every inch of the place.
((think of these larger cities like New York or Chicago times 5))

You sigh quietly as you are aroused from slumber by the blinds from your window folding back automatically, letting light spill in.

It's a day in the life...
