Fiction:United Republic of Nations

"Towards the victory, even if alone."

- General Baysid Marsenfat

United Republic of Nations, (epj. Zsàfrha Durú Feriygaú, kas. Tadsaè Feriyg Oiyùm) is an association of numerous civilizations inhabitating Mirus and Cyrannus galaxies in the First Gigaquadrant. Formed in 2492 during Sorithrad Conference, URN is regarded as the legacy of the Seran culture. As federation of dozens of spieces salvaged from galaxy immersed in chaotic war, URN poses as multicultural realm, bringing together benefits of both decentralized and centralized forms of administration.

URN government directly administer over 71,192 systems with 143,819 planets colonized and 19,133 systems during colonization process. Despite it's rather small size, URN develops several very advanced technologies in the range of communication, weaponry and chemistry.

The Republic's capital,, is located in Kogra Triangulum region of the Cyrannus Galaxy. Considering it's origins, history, low development and political status, URN is important rather only in local sector.

First Union (1289-1903)
Most of the URN members are descendants of lost, Seran culture. These states come from Sera galaxy, once hid in endless void surrounding Gigaquadrant. Major species of URN started to emerge from Seran dust around 270,000 years ago, quickly developing on various worlds among billions of life-giving planets. Around 500 A.D., Tal’Sheez, Zuriattans and other Serans begun their expansion in native galaxy, globular clusters and satellite galaxies surrounding Sera. As the nations started colonizing nearby systems, it became clear that old galaxy is not to remain a peaceful place forever. Major conflicts begun to start around 1200 A.D., when rapidly expanding empires and interstellar republics insisted on their territorial claims. Periods of peace were short and uncertain, with warring states breaking truces and treaties on a daily basis.

Guaranteeing stable alliances and treaties became harder with every month. In 1289, Zuriattans and Tal’Sheez signed an unification agreement, which led to creation of the First Union. Region of galaxy settled by these nations remained relatively calm for next centuries to come, however perceptible tensions between major empires of Sera started to compromise safety of the first Union members, which by 1550 consisted of 28 autonomous states. First Union adopted the title of peaceful realm, yet it was meant to undergo the war, which was to end the history of Sera.

Great Seran War (1871-1903)

 * Main article: 

The war started when tensions between two Seran powers, Symen and Jovioca Empire, resulted in several local clashes on their border. Symen government attacked Joviocans in an open act of aggression in 1871. Both empires had numerous allies, which were immediately dragged into war. Many of weaker states forming these alliances were eradicated by dominant forces of major powers in conflict in several weeks. Some, like Fyhun republic, started to attack its neighbours, even neutral. One of such attacked states was the First Union, which had no choice but to defend it’s borders. Hostile actions did not end however, and after surrender of Fyhun capital world, hostile nations attempted to attack both First Union and remnants of Fyhun republic. The dense net of contacts between species inhabiting Sera started to morph into complex system of alliances, with more and more powers involved in pan-galactical war. In 1891, all states in Sera were already entangled in war or eradicated by stronger neighbors. Galaxy begun to collapse.

By 1892, Symens and Joviocans signed a peace treaty, however both of these nations still fought with hundreds of other republics, states and empires. In order to prevail through raging conflict, some nations simply left Sera using wormholes, black holes or using FTL drives. Many of mightier powers took that as an act of cowardice and started to hunt down escaping fleets, one by one. With each month, population of Sera was dropping around 5 to 7%. Manpower reserves started to decay, Empires fell into internal conflicts as more and more planets surrendered to flames and gunfire tearing apart millennia-old cultures.

Exodus (1903-1905)
Being aware of the terrible situation of the First Union, the Great Council decided to search for alternative ways of surviving the war. The research proved obsolete and misleading – results clearly shown, that there’s but one way of surviving – escaping Sera.

The great project, codenamed „Symeron” (Ancient city sieged by hostile forces, whose inhabitants successfully fled the city, deceiving the attackers). First Union secretly proceeded to gather fleet, which was to evacuate billions of people from other civilizations, as well as from members of the Union. By the end of 1903, the fleet already consisted of 1,299,183 spaceships carrying over 7 billion Sera inhabitants. By the end of 1905, this number was to grow exponentially, up to over 150 billion escapists.

The “Symeron” project was successfully kept in secret until 27th March, 1905 (sol). Dispersed fleet was called to immediate evacuation two weeks after hostile powers detected one of it shards in Oprecif system. Gathered force of over 200 million ships begun its travel to the Promaxis wormhole, located in Zyrkathian territory, not sure about where it might lead. Despite of quick mobilization and excellent command, united forces were attacked near the Warp Gate entrance, blocking access to it for several hours. Strict generals and decisive attacks led to the eventual victory of allied forces, however ransomed by loss of thousands of corvettes, frigates and cruisers. Fleet successfully entered Promaxis and escaped dying Sera galaxy at 21st April 1905. However what happened to the galaxy remains unknown, rumours and exiles tell about the total annihilation of the galaxy and its inhabitants after the final stages of this destructive war.

Exile & Rejuvenation (1905-2492)
Vile wormholes were never an object of interest of Seran civilizations. Their unpredictability and unknown nature effectively shielded them from trespassers and adventurers willing to exploit their potential. Although studied and somehow described in various scientific publications, not a single Seran has ever tried to unveil their secrets. First Union had a little time but to think about the danger lying within them – threat of imminent destruction pushed them to the insane idea of trying to escape using warp gates. Anywise dangerous, Promaxis offered a chance, that was never to appear again. Escapers had no other way but to risk everything.

The ominous interior of this space-time rift proved incredibly helpful, however somewhat dangerous. Although none of the ships in “Symeron” fleet were destroyed during this questionable “trip”, nothing but minor damages to ship hulls were reported. Upon leaving the Sera First Union and fellow civilizations had left behind their origin, home and knowledge.

The exit of Promaxis led to the void surrounding Fism Cloud, which later appeared to be called by their inhabitants the “Cyrannus Galaxy”. The closest stellar group to the exit point was Fism Minor – a stellar cluster orbiting Cyrannus. The trip however, was to take over 2 years of drifting without any available resources at the fingertips – thus being unable to repair the damaged ships. All ships that were damaged beyond repair before and during travel were eventually recycled and reused to serve needs of other spaceships - time became the biggest enemy of the “Symeron” fleet. Without the ability to use any of the FTL drives due to mutilated engines of the majority of the ships, this voyage, later called “Covurtasuúd” (epj. The Long Rest) proved to be longer that it was expected.

By the 7th February 1907, “Symeron” fleet reached the Fism Minor.

Rebuilding the Union (1907-2237)
Soon after Symeron's arrival to Fism Minor, the leadership of exiled Serans started to gather information about the Cyrannus Galaxy and both Fism clusters. Due to several promising systems being detected, fleet headed to the closest star that seemed to have an asteroid belt and few barren worlds, which could be exploited in order to repair damaged ships, build new transport ships and to fill in supplies. After reaching this system, earlier tagged as "" (epj. Fism Haven), repair drones and probes begun exploiting nearby asteroids. Within few days, all damaged ships recovered from damage suffered upon leaving the Promaxis wormhole. Few groups separated from the main fleet, settling on nearby planets, which later developed surprisingly well. Resources which were later gathered in this systems, were used to build Warp Gates, which later connected Fism clusters with Cyrannus. In 1928, first fleets begun their journey to preselected, promising region of Cyrannus Galaxy - Kogra Triangulum. Soon new colonies were established, with and  being the first.

Expansion & Development (2237-2492)
Next two centuries were to become the age of great expansion projects, intensive colonization and development of the Seran states in exile. In 50 years after establishing first colonies in Cyrannus, United Council started 3 colonization campaigns, in 2245, 2261, 2289. These expansions gave access to far bigger resource deposits and extended Seran knowledge about Cyrannian space. By 2400, the Second Union had over 891 bilion citizens and 2,288,191 settled worlds.

Rapid economic development at the turn of 23rd and 24th century has led to several exploration campaigns which reached even the core of the galaxy. Deep space mapping let the Serans to gain valuable information about many other states inhabiting the Cyrannus, without being detected for a long time. Quick expansion and broadening of borders has however led to several contacts with foreign civilizations, which mostly soon entered the federation.

Population of the Union started to grow at the similar rate, mostly descendants of last Serans. Quickly increasing amount of citizens enforced new colonial policies, intensified after numerous conflicts between different races and tensions among members of the federation. These have led to major decentralization of the government and division of the homogeneous state to many member states. Although this process was slow, soon it led to significant changes in law and administration of the union, which soon became part of the Wedan Declaration.

Wedan Declaration
Wedan Delcaration marked the beginning of the Second Union - association of nations under united, federational state. Representatives of 20 member states being part of the First Union signed the declaration on 17th February, 2492.

During the next years, several significant law and government reforms and numerous border and international treaties came to life. Federation underwent throughgoing economy development and slow decentralization. This period, later called "Spring" (epj. Viila'ta), lasting until 2506, marked the beginning of major modernization, development and prosperity of the Second Union. Effective changes in legislation have birth to new investitions being kept away from government's affairs. Official programs, like "Symeron II" also led to redevelopment of the Union's fleet, whose effectiveness and number of units increased. Soon, however, after short period of intense economic growth, came minor decline.

Zuriattan Dynastic Crisis (2576-2579)
In 2575 died the Grand Zuriattan Suzrain, Dal'aih Kogun, leaving his two sons, Juvet Gón and Tepr' Othin without clear decision which of them was to become new ruler. Juvet Gón assumed control over Zuriattan Gathering, justifying his move with patrimonial law. This, however, was questioned by Tepr', who sent his fleet to Dóchet. Juvet took this as an act of agression, and in response, destroyed fleet and started numerous campaigns in order to capture rogue brother.

In order to end the conflict as quickly as possible, Union organized Conference on Jova. Both sons of Dal'aih came there, however none settlements were made. Despite of humongous political tensions, conflict didn't develop, rather morphing into local raids of hostile fleets.

Next conferention, which took place in 2579 on the same world of Jona led to agreement on enforcing sanctions, or even excluding Zuriattans from Union, provided that conflict continues. Under these circumstances, brothers agreed upon an armistice. Demarcation line was set on the zone of the conflict, eventually leading to setting border between two Zuriattan Gatherings. Both brother's claims to the title of the Grand Suzrain were recognised, however full peace treaty was not to be signed during their lifetimes. Tepr' and Othin marked the beginning og two Zuriattan dynasties: Teprothines and Juvegons, governing respectively High and Minor gatherings. Through next century, tensions continued to decrease, eventually leading to unification of both states under the reign of Unification Council, with both dynasties being in charge of both Gatherings.

Isolationism, Wars with Humeni (2583-2678)
After long crisis within URN, Common Council decided to start isolationism policy to heal the wounds of the Union and to continue peaceful expansion without risking being detected and quickly destroyed. Colonization of worlds slowed down in order to strengthen the defences of the Union, few scout fleets were sent for reconnaissance and mapping missions across whole galaxy. These proved very useful in the future, as URN was to face threat bigger than anything they’ve experienced in Fism cloud.

In 2583, Ahtzai Reconnaissance Unit suddenly disappeared from the vision of the URN. Last received data showed the fleet entering relatively close situated planetary system, marked as Humeni. In order to recover the unit and to check whether it was destroyed by hostile forces, URN sent main defense fleet to Humeni. Immediately after entering orbit of the parent star, unknown ships begun their assault. Union fleet managed to fight off the enemy, recover Ahtzai Unit and escape back to home territory. Soon deep-space scans detected previously unnoticed stellar civilization, which posed great threat to the URN. All allied fleets were recalled to Unevanai, regrouped and sent to examine the enemy. For few days these fleets remained undetected by the enemy, referred to as ‘’Humeni’’ and kept infiltrating the enemy forces from safe distance. The First War with Humeni begun by the end of 2583, when hostile forces attacked URN fleets in Banisvai, Tormuyg and Hollu Dan. Outnumbering enemy forced Union ships to retreat to Nalliygali, merge into two main assault fleets and attack smaller Humeni groups hidden in remote systems. This tactic let the Union destroy around half of enemy forces, however hostile fleets begun their assaults on several distant URN worlds undergoing colonization. Brutality of the enemy led to quick armistice in 2584, however Humeni remained unaware of thousands of spaceships built in the last months by the Union.

At the beginning on 2585, URN forces started attacking all detected Humeni fleets in the hostile territory, after these launched successful raids on several core worlds of the Union. Enemy was eventually pushed back after decisive battles of Numoia and Kzva. Around one third of URN ships were destroyed, and almost every remaining one was badly damaged. Truce signed in 2587 forced the enemy to abandon settlements within 70ly from Uan’Bhei, what prevented Humeni raids for next few years.

Rampant Humeni forces however started to attack outer URN worlds 3 years before the end of truce, forcing Union to start another campaign against deadly enemy. In 2607 three main fleets of the URN started to siege enemy core worlds, while forces remaining within borders of the Union guarded its territory. Succesful campaign led to annihilation of Suozó – Humeni capital world, after major battles of Viila and Opsarch won by allied fleet. Third Humeni War ended with decisive victory of the URN, which forced the enemy to destroy their fleet, become protectorate of the URN and abandon all worlds within 100ly from Uan’Bhei.

In 2671, after Humeni recovered from utter defeat, URN ended the former enemy dependency and instead proposed membership. Humeni refused, however later, in 2678 became satellite state of the URN, situated far beyond the borders of the Union. After long time of instability and war, URN have once again chosen to remain hidden from the greatest powers of the Cyrannus. Instead, they expanded their protectorate policy which in the future allowed the Union to expand its realm peacefully.

First contact with Humanity (2679-2700)
The Union haven’t recovered from recent wars yet, when it faced new far bigger threat. For several months, URN was detecting numerous, small fleets located in remote systems of the Kogra Triangulum. However strength of single groups posed no danger to the Union, all unidentified fleets combined together could possibly overwhelm allied forces. More and more new operation groups were sent to investigate intruder presence, as more and more URN remote worlds informed about detection of unknown fleets quickly entering and leaving planetary systems.

Around March, 2673, none of previously detected groups were present in the area. Instead, a single, bigger concentration of unidentified spacecraft started to travel through inhabited URN worlds, possibly searching for core worlds of the Union. In order to counter and neutralize this threat, several operation groups of navy of the URN headed out to meet the intruders in Fxhali system. Upon entering the orbit of the local star, main fleet commander – Óphros vu’Koai Nóu ordered operatives to find a way to contact the unknown fleet. Surprisingly, utilized methods succeeded, letting Óphros to send prefigured flagship several messages. Interlopers were demanded explanation of their presence and ordered to immediately leave the allied territory.

After few minutes of extreme tension and fear of hostile attitude of the threatening spacecraft, Óphros finally received response from intruders. Following days were devoted to investigate the threat and to start diplomatic negotiations between two sides. Foreign force remained open for the Union through next days, however demanded mutual agreements. These were made on the Exhali in 27th June, 2673 and marked the beginning of diplomatic relations between the URN and the alien race of expansionary and collective race, which named itself “the Humanity”.

Over the next years URN gathered more and more information about its new neighbor. Both sides started to familiarize themselves, hundreds of new projects between the Union and Humanity were started each year in order to deepen the bond between two civilizations.

Human settlers soon claimed the title of the.

Members
Tal'Sheez Dominion= Dominant species - Tal'Sheez Capital world - [Cyr] Uan'Bhei, [Ser] Laena Population - 24.981.320.200 The Tal'Sheez - Seran, bird-like species are very influencial in the URN. Being one of first members of the Union, having its Capital within their territory, Tal'Sheez are one of few which strongly influence URN politics. Originating from lost world of Laena, they developed strong collectivist society. Although they are slow breeders, Tal'Sheez contribute major chunk of the population. Decisive position in URN politics indicates their status in the Union.

Dominant species - Ka'ihembrà Capital world - [Cyr] Finzl, [Ser] Kanänóú Population - 3.901.452 Only few autotrophic species developed consciousness in entire known universe. Such civilizations are extremely rare, however first Kahembrans somehow managed to create strong society. For long, they remained closed to Sera - until war reached their homeworld of Kehra. These plant-like creatures living up to few thousands of years are mostly individualists, populating remote systems of the Union. Only there Kahembrans find peace and calm lost in the past.

Dominant species - Zuriatta Capital world - [Cyr] Dóchet & Epches, [Ser] Vàzuraú Population - 21.109.871.250 Harsh and fericious Zuriattans are in charge of major military decisions and Union forces overall. Many of them are members of most important military bases, facilities and remote stations. Back on their Seran homeworld of Zura, Zuriattans fought destructive wars among each other - until their actions brought their world to the edge of destruction. Their society is conservative and slow in technological progress - they are the true remnants of Sera.

Dominant species - Bäuaskú Capital world - [Cyr] Bagalast, [Ser] Bäuask Population - 11.304.781.200 Living on dry land and in depths of the oceans, Bäuaskú are known for their versatility and endurance in every possible environment. Rapid genetic adaptation to any climate and weather allow them to settle on most of the planets, no matter how toxic or harsh these can be. Although adults can survive on toughest worlds of the Union, juveniles are exceedingly prone to danger and require water tanks to develop from larvae to mature forms.

Dominant species - Arsitóva (Zholam) Capital world - [Cyr] Moraiheniór Population - 7.230.107.260 For many Arsitóva certainly are not appealing, if not even slightly menacing. Everything about them is regarded as exotic - culture, traditions, even habits. Born in Cyrannus on Moraiheniór, Arsitóva, also called Zholam prefer cold, icy worlds striking one's eye with white gleam. They sculpt the reality as they want to with tools they developed in the last few hundred years. Seeking beauty and perfection among their works, Arsitóva became the finest terraformers.

Dominant species - Gón-Berh Capital world - [Cyr] Ubram, [Ser] Beréh Population - 13.298.103.670 Gón-Berhans were always fascinated with machinery, how it works and operates - they learned new technologies extraordinarily quickly, until they were forced to escape dying Sera. Although great amount of their legacy and knowledge was lost with their homeworld, Góanu, these people still prove best in their job. No matter if you're looking for an engineer, pilot, mechanic or even a janitor - Gón-Berhans will usually be the best choice.

Dominant species - Tulójudäl Capital world - [Cyr] Mehret-Mahem, [Ser] Anväjud Population - 5.991.320.780 Arthropoid species were surprisingly common in Sera, unlike in First Gigaquadrant. Most of them developed hiveminds scorched yet during the great war. Tulójudäl were special - surely unique. Each individual is exceedingly intelligent, even if sometimes jockingly called shrimps (what they dislike). With their development came one conclusion: trade lets one survive, prosper and avoid conflicts - and if one occurs, there always will be those who gain profit.

Dominant species - An-úzià Capital world - [Cyr] Sidvade, [Ser] Úzià Population - 13.108.371.670 Among all civilizations of the Union, only one species possesses the ability of active flight. Omnious An-úzià usually are secretive and dislike sharing their emotions and knowledge with others - who they call Nuzxa. They were not like that in the past - clear diplomacy and peaceful attitude let them gain allies, as well as many enemies. As a result, An-úzià were one of the most harmed civilizations during the Great Seran War - the memory of it brings nothing but pain.

Dominant species - Arzak Capital world - [Cyr] Absitiden, [Ser] Kiushsus Population - 12.807.310.270 Arzak, also calling themselves Herúli, remain the keepers of the knowledge almost lost back in Sera. They were always fascinated with history, how it shaped the endless worlds, times and the future. Dedicated to preserving what is the most vulnerable, Herúli also pose great scientists, yet poor engineers - they were uplifted by Tal'Sheez before the war, yet even in Dark Times their culture was powerful and sprawling, only growing with time up to this day.

Dominant species - Evern Capital world - [Cyr] Faragmal Population - 16.104.576.120 Born on steppes of a tundra world, Evernians quickly mastered agriculture. With time, as their civilization native to Cyrannus galaxy grew, they learnt how to manipulate the weather and entire biospheres of abudant planets they turned into sanctuaries to preserve life. Before joining Union, Evernians already occupied significant chunk of Kogra Triangulum sector - sacred worlds forged by their will and determination hundreds of years ago still thrive and prosper.

Dominant species - Irpid Capital world - [Cyr] Tekyasret Population - 8.302.789.380 Often mistaken for Tulójudäli by travellers and tourists, these arthropoid species share many characteristics with their distant Seran cousins. Born in caves of Iria, Irpids, native to Cyrannus, tend to stick together in small societies, called herds. They are slow breeders, often living surprisingly long. Relatively sedentary lifestyles are very common among them - Irpids are naturally dull and poorly sensitive, especially to other species, calling them shrimps.

Dominant species - Tóhu Capital world - [Cyr] Sagmezaer Population - 17.809.173.400 Repungant at first sight, Tóhians can be very lively and kind when familiarized. These herbivores are exceedingly proficent when it comes to any kind of architecture - their development teams were and still are in charge of countless projects on all worlds of the Union. Despite living in huge conurbations, Tóhians are not very social. They prefer to stick together, being rude and harsh to all outcomers, first and foremost when it comes to dealing with insistent people.

Dominant species - Ecumora Capital world - [Cyr] Filhier, [Ser] Ann'zhuxol Population - 15.918.231.730 Ecumorans often share traits that are completely contrary to each other. Such relation can easily be seen in higher classes of their society - all individuals outdo one another with their love to any kind of ornaments and patterns, as well as with their gluttony and avarice to food. Ecumorans rarely organise any feasts, neither are being invited to banquetes. In spite of that, Ecumorans love to show around others in their magnificent palaces and mansions.

Dominant species - Kh'rk Capital world - [Cyr] Hrek'krhk Population - 6.208.912.350 Kh'rk, molluscoid species, seem to be harmless and defenseless when it comes to fighting - despite that popular opinion, Kh'rk pirates were a real menace to the Union forces upon arrival to Cyrannus. Their civilization is not built on society. Instead, common religion and beliefs bind these bizarre creatures together into larger groups called communities. They prefer humid, warm worlds, with Hrek'krhk among them - which they will protect to death.

Society
URN society is very diverse and unlike any other in the gigaquadrant. Different cultures interact with each other, often resulting in very bizarre traditions, beliefs and habits of its citizens. Despite being regarded as a rather conservative product of multiple societies being mixed together, society is very divided and diverse deep inside. Various worlds represent different dialects, separate groups of people sharing the same customs and unique characteristics.

Although internal political division within the structures of the Union prove meaningful when it comes to describing the URN society, the most populous worlds usually share many similarities. These are mostly inhabited by species controlling area of the planet, however citizens of different origins always have a great share in the world’s population. Such planets are often regarded as “Core worlds”. Most of the URN population is irreligious, however there are numerous spodists, monotheists and polytheists. In order to put aside the differences, all believers from different religions visit shared shrines and sanctuaries, called “Nilóyia”.
