In August of 2262 it had departed on a supply run to a station in orbit around Neptune but never arrived.

2522Baker System discovered.

2523 70% of humans live off-world. They feel that they deserve equal representation in UNE proceedings. The government changes form once again, becoming the United Planets of Earth (UPE).

2328 Horus System officially discovered by Marie Sante who names the system after her ship, however legend claims that the system was actually discovered several years earlier by fourteen-year-old Sante after she stole a ship to flee her family in Gonn.

2529 Ferron System achieves represented status within the UPE.

A cold war of sorts begins, with occasional casualties, but not full-on open conflict.

2530 As public and private interests establish operations in Horus, Marie Sante sticks to its outer reaches, singularly focused on the areas she has yet to explore.

Though most of the population flee before the Tevarin finally take the planet, a few hundred stay. Rachel Locke, a local with no military training, organizes the survivors for increasingly daring strikes to disrupt the Tevarin occupiers. The group become known as The Greys.

2542 Marie Sante discovers the jump from Horus to the Rihlah System. This makes Horus a security risk for the UPE. The government closes the system to non-military personnel, receiving little resistance from the small group of civilians that have begun to settle on the fledgling planet of Serling. Only Sante defies the order. She hides in the system’s outer reaches and manages to remain undetected.

Between 2542, 2545-10-01A Navy pilot in Horus reports an unauthorized ship in his sector. A battle group is mobilized only to realize that the ship was Marie Sante’s. With the false alarm wasting many hours and credits, the military prioritize pushing Sante out of the system.

2546 Ivar Messer, now promoted to commander, brings the captured Tevarin leader to the UPE floor. First Tevarin War ends. He rides the popularity of his victory to become High-General. Claiming the Tribunal is an outdated system and cultivating a fear of the Xi’An, Messer proposes the creation of a new single office with the title of Prime Citizen. Upon election as the first (and last) Prime Citizen, it isn’t long before he restructures the government into the new United Empire of Earth (UEE) and annoints himself Imperator, ushering in an age of unprecedented expansion and colonization - The Messer Era.

2546 Idris IV is officially recognized. The Governors Council name the planet after famous freedom fighter Rachel Locke.

2617 UEEN Lieutenants Ahmad Harar and Carl Dyson discover a gravitational anomaly while patrolling the Horus System and become the first Humans to visit the Kayfa System, unwittingly also stumbling on the Xi’An. They were subsequently captured and interrogated. They were released 3 days later with instructions that any further UEE vessels would be shot on sight. This sets the tension felt throughout the Xi'An Cold War.

2633 Tears of Fire is inducted into the archive at the UPE Historical Vault for Antiquity.

2638 Senator Assan Kieren of Terra publicly decries the pro-military agenda of the UEE and its unconditional support of the military-industrial complex.

Imperator Illyana Messer VI uses the Vanduul attacks as a convenient tool to help remind the populace why they need the Imperator’s protection.

2687 ArcCorp is founded in a Stor-All Hangar by a group of friends as a deep-space exploration consortium. The company aims to use their lone Zeus IV spacecraft to locate and catalog jump points for UEE bounty money. Pooling credits, the quartet of friends begin the process of exploring the universe.

2697 Imperator Illyana Messer VI names her youngest son, Samuel, as her successor.

Imperator Samuel Messer VII is more interested in using his newfound power to torment an already subjugated population into further submission than dealing with the Vanduul threat.

28th Century

2701 - 2800 | Notable Events

2700 Bremen Mills boasts the largest agricultural holding on Rytif and changes from an association into a corporate entity in its own right. Through further standardization and streamlining, it begins to look like things could finally be turning around for the once-struggling group.
Early 28th Century     ArcCorp shifts focus from exploration to mining. The corporation finds success acquiring mineral rights to newly discovered planets.
Early 28th Century     The personality of the Orion system changes. Armitage becomes a waystation for soldiers, mercs and pilots looking for a chance to test their mettle against this elusive enemy. Stores begin accepting Vanduul tech (and in the more extreme locations: Vanduul corpses) as trade to feed the growing bloodlust of the planet. Hunting parties are organized to go look for Vanduul prey.
2712-02-16 I 18:38 One of the last civilian comms is sent from Armitage. Shortly thereafter, a Vanduul fleet invades the Orion system. The attack force is larger than anything the population has ever seen. Capital ship after capital ship appears in Orion and unleashed its devastating weapons on the locals. The Battle of Orion begins.
2712-02-16 The UEE Navy scrambles to mount a defense, but the carrier normally posted to the system has been tasked to Caliban to make an example of a growing political activist movement, leaving three destroyers and several frigates to handle the onslaught. The locals band together with the military while scouts race back to to alert the fleet.
2712-02-16 Battle lines fluctuate for three days on and around the planet of Armitage as support rushes in to help. Despite suffering heavy losses during the initial attack, the Navy begins to push the Vanduul back toward the jump point while Marines battle over every scrap of territory on the planet surface.
2712-02-19 The UEE catches its first glimpse of what would become known as a Kingship. Nearly three thousand meters in length, the alien ship dwarfs all of the remaining Naval ships combined. The ships of Humanity’s front line, emboldened at the prospect of victory, are too close to avert their course and are decimated in the Kingship’s first attack.
2712-02-19 What transpired after that has been historically described as a slaughter. The remaining Naval forces flee the system to Tiber in the hopes of creating some kind of barricade to stop the Vanduul advance. They abandon the people of Armitage to the Vanduul in the process.
2712-02-19 The Messers suffer their first decisive military defeat in over 150 years. News of this defeat and this unstoppable terror at the fringe of the universe terrifies the population who fearfully anticipate the next attack. The Vanduul have no interest in pursuit. The Kingship stays in the system for almost a year as they harvest what they need from the planets before the Clan disappears back into Vanduul space.
2715 - 2788 The military regime reaches a plateau. While the human populace has been somewhat beaten into submission, there’s a current of subversion in the culture. People are starting to see the cracks in the system. Activist groups launch attacks against the political/propaganda machine. The military is stretched thin, bracing for war with Xi’An, chasing down Vanduul raiders, and trying to maintain security on the human systems. The Imperator’s power is waning.
2716 The Great Stalford Disaster.
2716 Terragra, Inc.'s Prallies start to gain notice across the Empire. As orders from stores and stations wishing to stock the snack grow, Terragra cannot find a affordable source of wheat that they can use to reliably expand their production. Terragra offer to provide Bremen Mills with the capital needed to rebuild their destroyed facilities in exchange for controlling interest.

Origin has strong ties to Earth for the first two centuries of their existence.
2750 Cathcart has built up a well ensconced pirate population.
Mid 28th Century ArcCorp becomes involved with BCK, a massive terraforming conglomerate. ArcCorp has moved beyond mineral rights and is also dealing in planets for settlement. As terraforming falls out of favor, ArcCorp absorbs BCK and the massive corporate structure they had used to help shape the modern galaxy.

2832 Shubin Interstellar announces profit losses for the first time ever in the Ferron system. The mining conglomerate cites the depletion of a major mine as the cause and notes that more site closures are expected to follow. This proves to be Ferron’s death knell. Years of aggressive mining has taken its toll and the system by this time has been nearly picked clean. As fast as its rise to prominence had been, Ferron’s fall from grace would be even faster.
2833 Cascom elect Andre Novoselov president.
2842 In the last decade, the population of Ferron has dropped by nearly half and its economic health has dropped even lower.
