North America: Panem. Includes Good chunk of Canada and Mexico as well as the USA. The lands that connect North America to South America submerged under water and the islands around the Americas gone.

South America: lowlands flooded and the higher mountain areas survive. The Indigenous population outnumbering the non Indigenous population overthrow their government and set up their own governments as they once had, but with democracies instead of empires such as the Inca had. Various states, cut off from the rest of the world.

Europe: wallowing in poverty with many of the low countries having been flooded, making many countries need to take refugees. The British Isles fairly isolated and struggling to survive, while more mediterannean climate areas are doing better, though still poor. Famines rampant in some parts of Europe. Largely an agricultural based society again.

Asia: Slowly rebuilding itself from poverty, largely agricultural, one country controlling the other Asian countries strongly and is highly rich, similar to the Capitol in Panem, minus the Hunger Games.

Africa: highly rich countries, all independant and highly educated. Europe had to sell back most of its riches to Africa just to get some of its necessary products to survive, so Africa is very well off. Occasionally they lend to Europe, but due to history aren't very keen on helping Europe much. Extremely advanced countries.

Australia: Cut off from the rest of the world, living in simple and numerous societies. Agricultural in some areas, Nomadic in others. People return to tribal roots. Indigenous populations mix with non Indigenous populations and form new tribes based on mixed cultures.

Antarctica: Still ice in some regions, but others have begun to grow agriculture slightly and more animals live there and compete for territory. Humans yet to arrive.
