  • Terran Confederation era: A little more than one thousand extended families of Terran origin settle the region around White. Their colonies have mutual origins on Terra, and maintain these ties over the interstellar distances between systems.
  • 198: Serious negotiations began with Solomani worlds in the Alba Protectorate to have them join the Imperium as client states.
    • It will, however, be many decades before they achieve full membership.
  • 685: White sends a large delegation to the first Solomani Movement meeting on Terra (Solomani Rim 1827).
