Description Made at the request of —a planet home to population 1.5 trillion, and only one space elevator.

I jumped at the excuse to draw up then write up such an overdeveloped, heavily urbanized world.
Traveller's Guide: Its surface is dominated by two landmasses which are covered now by sprawling urban landscape and marred by innumerable artificial landshaping projects. Much of the biosphere has been eradicated by the spread of the vast stretches of populated terrain and the steady, unintentional conversion of the ground-level atmosphere from breathable standard to a denser, noxious mixture. Various densely populated, artificial land-bridges stretch across the surface. Along the equator is an artificial subcontinent which has been built out from a former large island chain. The surface is dotted with inland, sea-sized artifical water reservoirs.

could you do one of a failed big brother-like state.
it reached 1984 levels of depressing life until a solar flare ended all those sucky empires.
100 years passed sence the end of big brother.

No shortage of new people to meet, but certainly a shortage of breathable air, and living space too for that matter. Everyone's probably indoors all the time so the claustrophobia would kill me. I need my natural scenery.

The planet is huge.

But they are currently trying to attach a warp drive onto the planet

Did they manage to solve the issues with space at all? And I'm not talking about the void between the worlds.

Yeah, underground facilities, and they use renewable energy that has low polution and creates lots of power.

Although, most people live on the center island, which has a population of 750 million, although they are currently displaced.

Underground cities then?

What displaced them?

Yes, well, the skyscrapers have core scrapers.

What sort of attack, and what prominent ruins and monuments were left behind and preserved or restored?

There's definitely a shortage of natural scenery, breathable, and living space on such a planet so crowded and lacking in resources even when they're imported.

From a planet exceeding a population of one trillion, the greatest export would be pain, misery, and a generally low standard of living.

Also, forgot to mention the planet is huge. And most of the minor settlements are underground, or in the sky.

They have very advanced technology (including television with perfect realism)
(And highly effective air filters)

I didn't mention this because it wouldn't make a difference on the map. But the planet is very large and made of a very non-denominational material.
