What, those are our only options? What if I prefer Venus as the new Yellow Frontier (I'm rather partial to keeping Earth as our home; I'm not about to run away from those Fascists), or prefer Mars as our new home (not bloodly likely, but maybe somebody always wanted to call themselves "Martians")?
The obvious thing is, there are 2 planets with ruins. Both nations are eager to exploit it. But they only had manpower and resource to control only 1. So the logical way are one Nations claim one planet and then warn the others: NEVER ENTER ANY AREA 10M KM AROUND VENUS/MARS OR THE ALLIES WILL KICK YOUR ASS 'TILL IT BURN ON SIRIUS. You can go to Venus, you can go to Mars, but you can go to both at the same time. Although both ruins on planets are supposedly 'free' and a 'gift to humankind' and the UNAC will demand to participate on ruins excavations (forget China, they'll busy playing civil war on each other).
Now for some ramblings:
I envisage Venus as an earth like world with 90% surface covered with shallow sea. With a denser atmosphere, heavy cloud formation, almost raining all year, the equator are always ravaged with heavy storm. The remaining land (Terra Ishtar and Terra Aphrodite) is covered with swamps and local plant that can be describe as unholy marriage between coral and mangrove. The sea are fully packed with armored fish: fish with bony plates covering their body instead of scales, while in land numerous shelled therapod amphibians are the dominant large land animal. Venus biome seems to prefer shell and armored animals.
Map of Venus somewhat resemble this, until I photoshoped something more decent:
The North Continent are Ishtar, the Central One are Aphrodite Continent, divided into Alta (right) and Thetis (left). Far west is small Beta Continent and far east is Ovda Islands.
Mars is a planet with more thinner atmosphere, the Northern Hemisphere are mainly covered with oceans. It is covered with red dunes with little precipitation. Think it as Mojave in winter... Most plant and Animals packed around the coast of Northern Ocean. The dominant plants resemble giant ferns, and some animals had exoskeleton like insects while some did't had any skeleton structure...
Map of Mars (I like this one):
The Northern Ocean are lazily called Northern Ocean. The Southern Continent are still Called Southern Continent. The Big round sea in the West are called Hellas Sea that will be frozen in the Mars winter. While the smaller one in the East are called Argyre Lake. The one Island is called Elysium Island. The Mars Southern Pole are covered with Perma-Ice Field (and source of numerous rivers) are called Tartarus Ice Field. As Mars Continent are freakingly huge, the inner continents are very much dry cold steep just like Siberia!
Of couse both planets had their own variants of small bugs. And don't worry, our scientist found that microorganism in Venus and Mars can't infect humans, they never evolved with us afterall...
You mean we're not just going to start a bunch of colonies on mineral rich worlds and then nuke the crap out of earth?
You start on Earth of course, and we don't wanna to throwing nukes on Earth... At least while we still on Earth... And why do you want to nuke Earth? Are you a Socialist spy?
Oh shit, sorry mate. I Just started a Aurora Let's play...
About a space Reich. I did not notice this lets play of yours, really sorry.
No worry, SPACE NAZI are a populer tropes after all. And like what TVTropes ike to say: Our Reich are different.
In my timeline Hitler become vegetative since the failed assassination plot on 1935 that leaves many high rank NAZI officer dead or badly wounded that forced them to retire. Hitler become a figurative head of state (and connected into Life Support to keep Hitler alive). Think it as the same as the Emperor in Warhammer.
That makes my Reich didn't had a Fuhrer. Hitler are Fuhrer for life (even after his death on 1970s) so they don't elect more Fuhrer. The leader of Reich are what they called: Privatkanzlei. With Reichsleiters act as Kanzlei minister. So the Reich are much more benign, they still think slavs as uncultured brutes, they still believe women are better to stay at kitchen work, they still think jews as enemy of the state, they think human are the rightful ruler of universe and all aliens can be killed or subjugated without remorse, they banned homosexual and keep them with mentally insane in mental hospital, they do eugenics, but at least they more ecofriendly and trying the best to stop global warming. (What?)
