Good idea. But it must be noted that the Olchian Union is a low tier 4.7 isolationist civilization that was limited to its system. If it had sent out any interstellar ships in the direction of Medwedia, they probably would be one-way sleeper ships that would fail when halfway there, killing their crews.

I think that Medwedia and the Talven Empire had a classic first contact - discovery of signals or telescope discovery of signs of planetary habitation followed by delegation exchange.

How far in the past do you think the first contact should lie? Medwedia as a supraplanetary state is several centuries old, probably the same for the Talven Empire, which actually originated elsewhere and only moved to the LSA.

We should find a way to make a plausible first contact story.
