Chapter 24

“The geography of Earth dictated difficult trade routes. We all fell into a tribal psychology of constant competition, instead of embracing our common humanity. Physical barriers, like impenetrable mountains and large oceans, led to the rise of different languages when humanity was first born. I did a study of it at West Point.” Sam bit into his borad. “This is better than a pork chop.”

“That’s because it’s not factory farmed. The borad fem provide us with dairy and the bull with meat. They are what you would call free range. Our shepherds gather the fem up to tap for cha, but they run over the fields as they will. They belong to no one. Getting back to politics…on Earth, weren’t there any visionaries who saw what a united world could bring?”
