“Did you know that even then, with computers and libraries and all kinds of reminders, we found it easy to forget where we came from? ”
Earth, sometimes called the Old Earth, is the home planet of humans in the Cytoverse.[2]
During the early days of humanity's contact with aliens, Earth was ruled by a single institution called the United Governments, aided by the United Intelligence Bureau. The Phone Company, the telecom that served as the liaisons between humanity and aliens, was also headquartered there.[3] Over time, however, the planet grew largely irrelevant.[1] Even its location seems to have been forgotten, with some people incorrectly speculating that Detritus might be Earth's ruins.[4] Nonetheless, both astrophysical data and numerous historical records of Old Earth remain within humanity's and Superiority's data banks.[5][6]
By the time the Superiority became a major power, Earth appears to have vanished.[6] Whether it simply means it can't be found on any star charts, or if it's somehow no longer where it should be, is unclear.
