Well, my main idea for Humanity is this:

After the events of "CC", Humanity, which was brought together by Robert Sterling and other major Human Players (Thomas Reardon, maybe) and become a fighting force against the Sunt. They would be hit hard, and possibly battered but still survive.

With the collapsing empires, businesses and colonial investors work together while Sterling unifies a few select colonies and planets together to form one Empire among the scattered Humanity and their colonies. Not a power empire, but one that can fight can.

Of course, Humanity would still be very separated as it it's expanding nature before the CC made them distant. Over the years following, Humanity might grow into a larger, more powerful empire, but I haven't thought ahead of this yet. What my main idea was though, that Humanity survives and the first collective of humans create a empire, and thus the first Human controlled Empire which I was hoping to call the Humanity Expanse.

Again, these are just ideas.
