Fiction:Shalian

Shalian history- that is known to the galaxy- began with a new species, Cellular Shal, suddenly forming about 284 billion years ago. It lived in the ocean, feeding off of small bits of meat. This is about all that is known, except that about 240 billion billion years ago, it suddenly grew legs and went to land. The land-based Shal was an omnivore, feeding off other animals as it prowled around in a pack, making up for their fighting weakness and together taking down species much further down the road of evolution. These creatures had the ability to add parts very fast- for instance, a Shal skeleton was found on a river on Shalydeis, dated to be 204 billion 945 million years old. But in the same dig, another skeleton was found- 204 billion 944 million years old, a million years younger. But the second was much further evolved than the first- more tail spikes, more upright posture, larger mouth, different feet, even stubs of arms. How could this be possible? Roanilan Waplean of Shalian University says, "The Shal defeated a lot of enemies, and being mostly carnivore, it digested the other creature. But somehow it must have added the enemy's DNA to its next generation of Shal, and the result was something of a biological mix-up." This let the Shal adapt quickly to changes in its environment. For example, when an unknown biological catastrophe caused all plant life on the planet to suddenly disappear, the omnivorous Shal had to evolve into pure carnivore, and this was the Shalon (the other skeleton). The Shalon had the same DNA mix ability as the Shal, so it continued to adapt quickly. For example, when the Shalon was attacked by the Rohos, the Shalon had to go defensive-and evolve a better fighting ability. It quickly evolved arms, claws, spikes, and a larger mouth to meet the attackers' challenge. The result was a million-year massacre. After the Shalon overcame its enemy, no more species dared to challenge it. It began hunting on its own, and in packs with the few creatures he befriended. Scientists estimate that the Shalon alone extincted 50 species, among them the Crionien, Goops, and Aeroxal. The Shalon extincted so many species so fast that it quickly evolved into the Shalona, (after only 500,000 years) which had larger claws, a much more upright posture, horns, and massive pincers. The Shalona was the first one to migrate, as the Shalon had killed off so many species that food was running out in the area. But migration created new problems-like creatures which were hugely more powerful, and the Shalona was at first defeated. But after killing minimal parts of several species, and several weak herbivores, it was able to evolve into the Shalonon, which had abilities to compete with the new carnivores and omnivores, like the Prei'Sak. The Shalonon had massive horns, several spikes, an even larger mouth, and a completely upright posture. It killed several Rogue creatures, a name the galaxy has adapted for creatures that are massively powerful, and roam alone.

Have you had enough history yet? Yes? WELL TOO BAD!!!

The Shalonon finally became sentient after a few body changes, under the name Shalian. As a tribe, the Shalian quickly discovered the secrets to fire, stone carving, and instruments like drums, maracas, horns, and aerophones (or didgeridoos). It now began its social life, allying all tribes it met, but still killing animals for food. However, even with sentience, the Shalian's body had not stopped evolving, although the change was minimal. The skin pigment began to change from red-orange-brown to light orange. The Shalian also found how to weave fabric, and then Shalian started wearing clothing, like sacks for trade and gathering, and masks for ceremonial rituals. Soon the Shalian Alliance, as scientists have come to call it, had taken over the continent.

Shalian tribe:

The Shalian now had a continent under their control, but then, around the same time that technology was beginning to fill the world, the Shalian split into several nations. Fighting soon began between them, and violence now filled the world. But one nation wanted to keep peace, and soon began trading with the other nations. Soon they earned the money to buy a city, and did so, becoming the first multi-city nation in the world. Soon their money spread through the world, but another nation was doing the same via military force. Through outrageous spending, the money nation got the military nation on their side, and took their cities. Now there was a unified planet in Shalydeis. They made their first spaceship, and were amazed to soon discover they weren't the only ones. They had stumbled upon what is now one of their best allies, the Minigal Empire. They also soon found the Garriok and Futones Empires, as well as the Fryrelone empire, war-loving zealots whom they quickly destroyed for their demanding money-up to 700000$- to offer to Spode. Soon the Shalian Empire had the most powerful peacekeeping arsenal in their sector, which they used to partially destroy the Manasco empire for repeatedly attacking the Minigal homeworld. Then they were seen as a threat to the Grox and besieged, especially after defeating 3 Conqrix battalions on Boboria with their allies the Shrikkel. After losing a few planets, the Shalian beat off the attackers and drove them back to the core, destroying another tax-demanding empire in the process. And then- from behind- the Garriok Empire, an empire of war-lovers, claimed the Shalian were growing too large for their liking and declared war. The Shalian had had no intention of destroying the Garrioks, but now they did. After only 2 years, the Garriok Empire was destroyed with hardly a trace. Meanwhile, the Shalian Captain Tonteron was going on adventures alone. After he found out how to be a Space Captain, he went on adventures across the galaxy, from stopping an Arkani military coup to destroying a C'servoid super weapon. He soon became one of the most decorated Captains in the galaxy, with 7 weapons and other accessories. Then the Grox struck back again, having finished licking their wounds. This time they came prepared, with a full bombardment fleet and over 8 Conqrix battalions, along with state-of-the-art weapons and vehicles like their elite troopers, and heavy guns that could hit pretty much anywhere on the planet. They were heavily assaulted, and as soon as they barely beat off the Grox attack in a massive guerrilla war in destroyed buildings, they found that 6 more battalions of FR forces were landing, chief among them Zaretian troopers. Tonteron decided he could wait no longer and joined the fight. After over 25000 years of fighting, the FR was driven off the planet, with Tonteron having over 800 enemies killed, the average among the troops being 150. Then just as the Shalian fleet was being remade, the FR attacked again. They quickly appealed to the Galactic Coalition of Guardians for help, and they were obliged, the GCG being the FR's mortal enemies. Now fighting continues in an epic battle, with the Grox having licked their wounds once more and landing this time over 50 battalions. The stage is set for one of the most epic battles in the history of the galaxy.
