New humans, that's what humanity has called itself since the World Empire proclaimed the image of the new human in the course of world unification about 50 years earlier. This image described a human being capable of changing its body on demand, interfering with evolution on a large scale, and also capable of changing genes and DNA. This new image of humankind virtually erased deniers and dissenters through radical world laws and also is responsible for the huge diversity of the people.

The life expectancy rose to 150 years, adult was one by faster and simpler learning processes already mentally with 16 and physically with 18, however, between mental and physical age was differentiated by the discreetly different progress in maturity nearly everywhere, where a not too big difference would have no health consequences.

The emperorship or also called crown of mankind placed its focus on life support and technological expansion after the introduction of the image. For this reason, there exist firearms that could fire without atmosphere easily. Physically really old, one only became with 100 years, after which one could apply for mechanical changes.

Due to the most modern medicine, the death rate had sunk so far into the ground that people took over and colonized the moon with increasing progress.
