Factions
- The Empire of 1,000,000 Suns
We are not alone. Long ago, another space-faring civilization rose up on the other side of the galaxy. They conquered and colonized a substantial swath of space around their home planet, but lost interest in exploration after reaching a certain size. Much like historical China, they were the first to discover many advanced technologies, yet only exploited them to a limited extent. The Empire of 1,000,000 Suns is large and diverse, and set into a rigid social order.

The Church of God was the official state religion of the Holy Empire of Man, and dominated the galaxy during Era-2.
