Mina's Star - Context
Season 1
Charter Knowledge for Everyone
by Mina's Star
This series will provide detailed background on how the novel's systems work as well as the perspective of its characters starting with the Charter. This novel began as a response to two troubling global trends. The first is the growing comfort with nuclear appeasement. The second is the steady rise of global political violence. Through this story, I wanted to explore the dangers of both while offering a possible path forward through the idea of the Charter, a political framework built to redefine what a state can be.
