Early in the Cosmic Era, the highly respected man named George Glenn announced the shocking new that he was a Coordinator, a human being that was born following a genetic manipulation procedure, resulting in a human "engineered" to be a better. Those who were born naturally - that is, without this procedure - became known as "Naturals."
With this announcement, the world was thrown into chaos, and anti-Coordinator pressure groups, such as Blue Cosmos, began labeling Coordinators as unhuman and declaring they had to be wiped out "for a blue and pure world." The world nations, the Atlantic Federation (North and South America, and Britian), the Republic of East Asia (China, Japan, etc.), and the Eurasian Federation began funding for a new space colony program. These new space colonies, known as PLANTs became the new permanent home for Coordinators. The Naturals intended to make the Earth their exclusive domain, although it was not uncommon to find Coordinators and Naturals living peacefully in nations such as the Orb Union.
