Part 1 is here.
All the world's Skeptics Associations were disbanded in 2057, since new evidence from leading scientists had proved the non-existence of Bigfoot, UFOs, and sensible politicians. They thought that it was only a matter of time before someone did the Loch Ness Monster, and God had already been proven non-existent since the infamous, and religion-disbanding, babelfish rain of two months earlier.
Harmony reigned until about 2070. Mars was beginning to look a lot more inviting because of overpopulation on Earth. Leading astronomers started to design a plan which involved terraforming and colonising Mars. Politicians wouldn't allow it. Following that was the first war in many many years - between people who wanted to live on Mars, and the politicians. Naturally, all the politicians wanted to do was make laws preventing this war, and they got wiped out pretty shortly. An international vote was taken as to whether they world should elect more, and the results were "Yes 0%, No 100%".
Near the end of 2070, Professor D L Elliott, the world's leading inventor, passed away. He had been suffering from burns ever since 2065, when his Vid-Communic prototype exploded in 2065. He gained international praise for his inventing skills, for his ability to survive that long, and for leaving everyone in the world 5 Stellars. A huge funeral was planned, but later scrapped, when Elliott's son pointed out that he had yet to invent a device which would give him a proper send-off, which was a working car with wheels.
With no war, no politics and no environmental crises left, the world was very peaceful. To celebrate, someone organised a huge party to be held in 2076. It was very nearly pulled off without major hiccups, except for one drunken Brazilian man driving through the statue of Popeye the Sailor Man. Looking back years later, it was probably a bad idea to give him the ironic punishment of three meals of spinach every day of the year.
The successful colonisation of Mars began in 2095. Earth people therefore became Martians, except for those patriotic souls who stayed behind. Rivalry somehow sprang up between the two planets. Someone pointed out that they should settle it peacefully, in accordance with Earth's "No War" policy. Someone else suggested that they settle it with sports. A third person suggested cricket, and a fourth person suggested Robo-cricket. Thanks to the slowly-rising popularity of cricket, the game was on. The game was held on Earth. It was to be a seven-day spectacular with three innings per side. And it would have turned out awesomely, if it hadn't been washed out. Perhaps it was a bad idea to hold it in Oregon.
Century celebrations in 2101 were deemed `disastrous' on Earth because of the idea of a Nostalgia Night. The music that was played - all stuff from the 1990s - just had no place in the modern world. Thankfully, the riot that occurred did not escalate. Much.
The world was brought together again in 2118, this time mourning the loss of Chris Marland, inventor of Stellars, oldest person in history (at 128), and bringer of peace. To add a little of his touch to the world of 2119, a RoboSports cricket match was played. Earth symbolically won by 128 runs.
Just two months after the match, Yellowstone National Park showed signs of blowing its top soon. All TV stations broadcast a famous historical docudrama about a super eruption, and video archives were torn inside out as people started panicking, wanting to see what would happen to them. Ironically, during the broadcast, the eruption happened - all it was, was `a single boulder being spit out as if it were a bad mint', according to experts.
It is now the year 2121. It is a good time to be living, because instead of getting the choice between 200 countries to live in on one Earth, you now get 500 countries across two planets. There is no war, no environmental problem, and best of all, no politics. We are also getting very close to inventing time warps so that we can travel into the future (but unfortunately not the past). In fact, I am going to drop this very document through our warp prototype and check if it works. Enjoy this document, whoever gets it.
