hello post edits I just want to do some historical revision and am posting here to get that reapproved, while also cutting a species I thought would be cool but in practice I didn’t end up using
Population: 5.4 Trillion
Outline of History: Vandalence is a rather small and sprawling nation that dates back to around 1500 years ago. Formed as a splinter group from other colonial efforts in the region, the Vandalence Compact grew from trading partnerships and defensive treaties over the course of 1000 years, eventually integrating and solidifying other smaller nations into a loose confederation of systems. Eventually, the nation slowed then stopped her expansion as nations on the periphery rejected joining. From there, the nation has thrived.
In terms of FTL, the nation uses Silverspace, a form of IFTL. Accessing it requires an access missile, which tears a hole into the turbulent dimension. Silverspace is highly corrosive, requiring a shielding system to be maintained to prevent being withered away. Permanent structures have been erected in silverspace, often anchored to important locations in the real world, like Horizon Gate.
Outline of Major Species:
60% Human - I’m only human, after all!
10% Edhel - See Mantiss’ Plot Claim.
15% Misc Species - Your halfsies and whatnot
5% Serniani - Bipedal Humanoids with an unnatural affinity for technology. Heavily Matriarchal.
Additionally - Should I make post-edit claims for all smaller nations in the Voidsea for compliance?
