History & Background (Dossier)

The First Grand Survey was initiated by Empress Porfiria in 300.

• Imperial Scouts surveying the Julian Protectorate sparked rumors of another war, but this never came to pass.
• Despite low-level interference on the part of the Star Legion, the worlds of the Protectorate were eventually cataloged to Class II standards - a fairly detailed IISS level - by the end of the survey.
