As the years passed on, 2187 hits and before anyone knew it... the system's population exploded from around 35 Billion to 450 Billion people. This massive growth of population was almost entirely because of the Asteroid Belt. The OPE became a much larger power, while the IU lost most of their colonial territories, and only have a handful of Asteroid Bases and Trade Cities. The ECR was in a similar predicament, as their economy peaked in the early 2180's.
