Fiction:Aldephi Empire

=Overview=

The Aldephi Empire is a recently interplanetary civilization with 2 planets and a moon to its name. The main species, Promiscerous aldephi, are an alien type of creature most similar to a mix between Earth ants and plant life. They specialize in computing power, and using renewable energy. Aldephi as they are known, run on a direct democracy / communistic system where all goods are shared, and all Aldephi vote on matters.

=History=

As a stable political entity, the Aldephi Empire is around 1000 years old. This was when the first intercontinental communications became a reality for the Aldephi. Like Earth's yellow crazy ants, the scattered empires were able to coalesce into a massive country spanning the entire planet of Tierrano.

Around 4-500 years later, the Aldephi were able to land on the homeworld's moon and create the first settlements on another planetary body. Only a century ago, another planet was colonized, and the two outworld colonies were terraformed into pristine gaia worlds.

=Government=

Aldephi are both communistic and democratic. All resources are shared in the empire, and private property is unknown. All Aldephi vote on issues concerning the country. Pooling together the opinions of billions of Aldephi requires supercomputers, which they have mastered.
