The four major powers in Mutter's Spiral were the Federation of Worlds, referred to informally as the Galactic Federation, which is run by a President; the Dalek Empire, ruled by Davros; the Cybermen, ruled by a Cyber-Emperor; and the Draconian Empire. Another major power was Josiah W. Dogbolter's Intra-Venus, Inc., a company rich enough to own Venus, Mars, and Jupiter.

Behind the Scenes
Marvel Comics
- Marvel's Death's Head and Dragon's Claws take place in the same century, the year 8162; both comics present Earth as environmentally wrecked, overrun with crime, and generally a mess. While these titles have had several crossovers with Doctor Who Magazine, it's not stated in these crossovers that Earth is in this state.
