Political structure
According to some accounts, by this time, Earth was politically divided into "zones" overseen by the World Zone Authority, a successor to the United Nations. A major challenge faced by the organisation was deteriorating environmental conditions and overpopulation. Nations were grouped into Zones answerable to a World President. Each Zone had its own Controller but a centralised security agency under a World Security Chief had jurisdiction over the whole body, and visas and passes were needed to move from zone to zone. (TV: The Enemy of the World) Another source placed this structure as operating in 2030 instead. (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Enemy of the World)

Other accounts indicated this was not the case as Jack Robertson, the businessman who owned the hotel brand Robertson Luxury Hotels, planned to contest Donald Trump as President of the United States in the 2020 election. After the incident involving giant spiders in the UK where Robertson shot the already dying mother spider, Graham O'Brien lamented for the future if Robertson did become the President.
