Historical Data[edit]

During the First Imperium, Shudusham became home to about 200 million Vilani colonists, who settled at first on the surface. These early miners soon built large undersea complexes, both for better proximity to the ocean's resources and because the artificial environment was more livable than that above the ocean.

During the Long Night, Shudusham lost contact with other worlds, and in fact some of the undersea complexes lost contact with other archologies. More than 1,000 years later, when the Sylean Federation was established, it was found that linguistic drift had given different sea cities mutually unintelligible languages. Shudusham's rich mineral ores formed the backbone of the new Sylean Federation's military and industrial power.

In -110, Shudusham was the site of the signing of the Shudusham Concords, an agreement regarding the use of weapons in robots. More than 500 years later, in 404, a group of roboticists meet at Shudusham to share their latest technological breakthroughs. Shudusham was chosen as the site because of its historic significance and central location. The conference was a success; so much so, in fact, that the Shudusham Robotics Conference has continued to meet every ten years since.
