Either I forget or it wasn't mentioned, what is the geopolitical situation before the Vers invaded Earth in the 1st ep of Aldnoah, specifically after Heaven's Fall?

Because up to this point, 6th ep of the 2nd season, the mecha designs of throughout the Earth are the same, that grey and orange mechs. This shouldn't be possible unless the concept of nations disappear, or the mechs blueprint is freely distributable lol , but if that is so, at the very least each country's/armies' mechs should possess different emblem/insignia... which I didn't notice...

is it merely lazy design on the anime production staffs part?

I don't know anything about before the first invasion, but after the invasion is when they started making the modern mechs, I thought. PTSD guy is shown attacking them with a tank in his flashbacks, so I don't think they really had mechs yet.

So after the first invasion, if they weren't already together, I'd guess they at least partially combined their military resources to produce mechs to fight the Vers. As for why they don't have differences in emblem or insignia, beats me.

Mostly likely yes because earth was under-powered to begin with.

hmm, and while Vers leaders/nobles were portrayed in detail, every fucking counts, were Earth leaders ever shown to us? weird...... and every single spot in the world does not make modification at all to the mechs design?

Was it? When was it mentioned?

But how? what was the impetus that causing it to unite? furthermore before Heaven's Fall? Wasn't the initial premise of this anime is only slight change to history in 1972? And miraculously unite in 40 years even before invasion? that's not how it works....

oh, now Aldnoah 2nd season showed that Earth actually has orbital base, so why did it suffer surprise falling castles in the 1st place?

Yeah, or at the time of the war - I don't remember. During the firts clash with Vers most likely. It was mentioned in the supporting materials, I think.

Finally "Earth Leaders?" were shown in EP 7, so even the producer realized that it's an important question and deemed it necessary to reveal the matter to the audience.

They seemed like dirty bureaucrats and don't even realize the gravity of the situation.

still it's weird that they were so calm, maybe they are hiding something? maybe that eye power of Inaho finally getting mass produced?

Doubt it, mass producing an experimental project in the middle of war doesn't seem likely. They might have other things up their sleeve instead.

Hm, but don't people do it usually? In WW2 people developped and produced new armaments during war.
