Transport

The ruling authority of Earth.

The name is taken from the rigidity applied to people moving from place to place.

“Private transport had been almost uniformly outlawed since the end of the wars, and transport law was now rigid, inflexible, and merciless.

“Through time, governments used that clause to rationalize that everything— especially in a global world with instantaneous communication and the blurring of state, national, and international lines, laws, and responsibilities—fell under Transport law. After the wars of the early twenty-first century and the globalization of the ‘war on terror,’ micromanaging Transport became the easiest way to control populations and govern human behavior.”

“Government became nothing more than a mechanism of control, because the free flow of dollars and the success of markets were the only things keeping the whole thing afloat. If mitigating panic is the national goal and purpose, then you have to control the where, when, what, and how of transportation.”
