My cover for the

's world in An Examination of Extra-Universal Systems of Government by Ephraim ben Raphael. Again, many thanks for EBR for helping me out of this one; he also wrote all of the text below except for the PoD stuff and the stuff on Antartida. It's a rather optimistic view of the future, so I was a bit out of my element. Nonetheless, it's a very interesting world and I'm glad to have worked on it.
