Fiction:New Eridani Confederation

Current date: 2793 CE or 160 CED
The New Eridani Confederation, or NEC, is a newer organization of the evolved Bearian, Human, and Kraw citizens. These evolved peoples are known as the Eridius (the evolved Bearian race of the Eridius) and the Eridians (the evolved Human and Kraw race) after the Bearian Nations Space Command's surprising decline of power after the events of the Bearian Civil War. In 2717 CE (8151 RCT), the new Eridanus calendar was created and used by the Eridians, along with the new year system of the Current Eridani Date or CED.

Technology
Just like their ancestors, the Eridians had collected a fused energy created by their star, what they call Silonium, a radioactive gas material equal to Gamma radiation. Silonium is one of the many gas energies founded by the Eridians and created when a star's Hydrogen and Helium particles are fused together by nuclear fusion. When the two particles fuse, they launch many new gases including Silonium into space, which is then vacuumed into capsules that are soon launched at a certain speed towards Elysium. These capsules' speeds are precise so the capsules will not fall into orbit and then the atmosphere of Elysium or any of the other planets.

These capsules are soon brought aboard space station laboratories, where they are cooled even more and through the process of deposition, the radioactive gas is formed into solid radioactive rods called Omicronium. These rods are soon shipped down to the planet or to other colonies, where they are then shipped to nuclear power stations to power entire continents. However, since Silonium and Omicronium were made of atomic properties, the NEC has taken caution of shipping these rods, as they could become unstable with too much physical activity.

When a rod had "run dry", it was taken shipped back into the nearest star, where it would go through the process of sublimation to become Silonium again. The process of harnessing energy was then repeated. However, there are other ways of the NEC gaining energy, including electric-like and solar energies. For a similar clean electric energy on Earth, Curnarsa was created by the Eridians' ancestors, the BNSC, to be an exact copy of Electricity, also being created by solar energies collected with solar panels and from Omicronium through conversion. Curnarsa is power for more of the economic purposes in the NEC, so many foreigners would not see much civilian devices powered by Omicronium.

The Eridians
Sometimes known as the Elysians, due to their home-world being the formerly renamed planet Reach II, or the pure/true Eridians, the Eridian Empire was created after an agreement had been reached by the warring sides of the Bearian Civil War, one of them being the former Bearian Nations Space Command. In the aftermath of the Civil War, it was seen that the Bearian people were adapting and evolving again to live in such harsh conditions of their previous home-planet; Reach, as nuclear warfare was used a few years before the end of the war. After evolving and adapting to their new life on their home, they had renamed themselves and their species to the Eridius and retreated to their previously built back-up home-planet Reach II to recreate their once great civilization. With their former home in ruins and radiation, the Eridians are hoping to rebuild from the ashes of their ancestors mistakes and become the empire that they were known to be. They are now known as the Eridius sapiens, or men of the Eridanus river.

The Eridian Humans
Little was known on humans still living in the BNSC colonies, as they were not talked much about around the empire. However, they were still useful crewmen aboard many BNSC ships and learned to live peacefully and hardworking along their Bearian brethren. When the Bearian Civil War had affected the colonies, the humans living there had felt that they were in between crossfire and believed in joining the "winning" side, having many humans join either sides. As the war had come to an end, the human population had dropped drastically, almost a sixth had survived and adapted to radiation. Due to the sympathy of the evolved Bearian, they had taken the humans into their newly formed empire along with their Kraw neighbours. The humans had joined the NEC in 8 CED, as they were in need of their neighbours' assistance and supplement.

The Eridian Kraw
The last of the known Kraw in the Plazith Rim had soon integrated into the BNSC before the Civil War. However, they had also met with the downfall of the former colonies joining either side. Faring on Tantalus was not enough space for them, let alone being only set in one city, so they had expanded into other colonies. When nuclear warfare had struck the colonies, the Kraw population was diminished to almost complete ashes. Only an eighth had survived the war, also leaving the Plazith Kraw in complete despair and scarring Bearian-Kraw relations. When both sides had finally come together to start anew peace, the Bearians had tried to improve the relations to be like their past relations. The radiation had soon reached the Kraw, who had also evolved to become the Eridian Kraw, somewhat of a subspecies. These new Kraw were soon invited to join the newly organized NEC in 4 CED as an apology for the mistakes of the past.
