2 votes each, one at 2 points, and one at 1.

Options:

Humanity owns the stars(lens man, road not taken):
Humanity is dominant in space (star wars):
Humanity is the first among several competitive powers:
Humanity is equal to many others (star trek, old man's war)
Humanity is a minor or junior power (Mass effect):
Humanity is a set of upstarts (early SG, Uplift universe):
Humanity is irrelevant: (UFO sightings, Hitchhiker universe):

I vote minor power (2) and equal to others (1)
Equal Among Many (2) or Minor/Junior (1). Doesn't really matter much which of the two. I'm prioritising mostly to follow the rules.
