=== World Two: Alpha Centauri ===
Our source of boundless can-do, no-nonsense frontier spirit, and maybe the source of our Confederation's trust in government institutions—they built them themselves, of course they trust them! (A bit of that 1950s-1960s American civic duty ideal.) A random idea which is a footnote in Centauran history, but might stand out for us: some of the early colonists tried to gengineer a way for women to grow as tall and tough as men, hoping this would eliminate gender inequality; whether it did or not, the trait breeds true, and easily spread to other worlds. (The only reason for doing this is so I can have a less gender-segregated military without having certain people grumble about physical requirements. ;) )
