Description The Siri Fund, named after one of the most famous Gen Zero VIs, was established in 2058 through a grant by the Singapore government to collate and publish findings on Synthetic rights across the world. The index is composed of five categories: legal personhood, freedom of expression, democratic representation, labor protections, and enforcement of protective legislation. These categories go from 0.00 - 2.00, and are then summed together to give the final score.The 2066 edition is the 4th complete publishment by the organization. While the new edition has taken some criticism into account, such as Egypt's apostasy law and the uncertainty in Paraguay, the list is still criticized for favoring the countries of the Fifth International. Other notable changes include upgrades of Colombia, Bulgaria, and New Zealand, and the downgrades of Italy, Ethiopia, and Vietnam. Greece, as usual is at the top of the list, with a score of 9.43, with Pakistan close behind at 9.18. The bottom of the list, also as usual, is dominated by Poland. Second to last is Yemen, with a score of 0.19.

From the shining mega-cities of the African coast, to the flooded streets of Old Miami. From the packed arcologies of China, to the bleak burning fields of Venezuela. From the vigorous debate of commune meeting halls in Buenos Aires, to the hushed whispers of secret party meetings in Munich. From the singing in the historicist concert halls of Montreal, to the screams over the burning slums of Moscow. From crowds of protesters in London, New Delhi, and Oran, to lonely miners on the Moon. All of it lives, all of it breathes, and all of it will one day die. All under the same twinkling light of the stars.

Our Fathers' stars.

Not really. I know things in general, but I tend to come up with the specifics on the fly, and then go back an retcon things when I've have time to think more about it. It's a continuous process.

Seems like the era of Scandinavia being at the forefront of social progress has come to an end, at least partially.

Yeah. Finland and Sweden were drastically changed by their Maximalist Populist governments.
