After the alien incident, under the forceful restructuring of the Army Ant Group, Earth underwent a sweeping upheaval and reshuffle. The greatest changes took place in Huaxia and Africa.

Huaxia's cities had become thoroughly futuristic. Scenes once found only in science fiction films had all been realized in Huaxia's cities. The Army Ant Group had gone all out in applying technology, overhauling the foundational sciences behind global technology.
