Note: This is complete conjecture, and in no way has any base in the universe of which I am aware.

The Corpus could be alien.

Alternatively, Corpus and Grineer could both be humans after eons of evolution. The Corpus ancestry starting from corporations seeking profit in interstallar business moved away from Earth, whereas the Grineer, being more concerned will genetic enhancement and warfare, stayed with Earth due to it's strategic value.

Honestly, though... the only part that bugged me? While I understand having the Corpus control Venus give Warframe a logical early point to introduce the Corpus as an enemy faction, to me it would be more logical if Grineer controlls Mercury->Mars region and the Corpus Jupiter->Uranus region. Pluto would be Infested (outter-most planetoid, yes?), and the various moons could be contested. Obviously that idea has many flaws, and the current scheme works well enough lol.
