Future
Some loose ends have not been rectified, however. In Xenocide, it is revealed that the Free People of Earth disappeared soon after Peter's death and was later replaced by the Starways Congress; therefore, it is left unsaid if it actually collapsed because of Peter's death or simply because it mutated to a universal government due to the expansion of the human race and the obvious need of a new constitution for the outer worlds.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“Although I’m trying very hard
To sound unlike a birthday card,
That’s all this is: so you may find it
Full of all that lies behind it
Admiration; friendship too;
And hope that in the future you
Reap ever richer revenue.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“Real generosity towards the future lies in giving all to the present.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“We stand at once the wonder and admiration of the whole world, and we must enquire what it is that has given us so much prosperity, and we shall understand that to give up that one thing, would be to give up all future prosperity. This cause is that every man can make himself.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
