World Timeline

These are some of the more important historical events that have affected this world and the surrounding region:

• Circa -2130: The worlds that will become the Corona Regnum are settled as a Terran cultural region. These Corona Arc colonies make contact with local Minor Races and, in time, the Hivers.
  • Around the same time, the Vilani of the Lishun Suugugki subculture enter the region.
• -2038: Several Hiver-inhabited worlds in Numbis are occupied by the K'kree, who begin exterminating local carnivore populations.
• -2029 to -2013: The Hiver-K'kree War threatens the Hiver community.
  • Reactions among the Terran colonies are mixed.
• (-1776 to 0): The Long Night.
• Circa -1550: A reportedly zealous response to K'kree probes leads to the first declared Corona Regnum, as the systems of the Corona unite to stand against the larger threat.
  • The Regnum lasts roughly two centuries before collapsing in on itself.
  • The Gold Union forms at some unknown point on the Numbis-Crucis Margin border. It will in time apparently become the Amalgamation Union.
• -740: New Human states in Numbis began to expand and conquer, causing the Corona Regnum to reform as a defensive act.
• -710: Having repulsed attempts on its territory, the Corona Regnum begins conquering systems outside of the traditional Corona.
• -510: The second Regnum collapses, again under its own weight.
• The Year 0: Far to spinward, the Third Imperium is founded.
• 224: A brief Third Corona Regnum is declared, but doesn't survive the death in fleet battle of its founder eight years later.
• 300-420: The Imperial First Survey.
  • Some ships of the Survey go missing in the region. Fragmentary reports suggest that the Amalgamation ("Gold") Union is destabilizing.
• 890: The Yeskoth Corporate begins formation around Edienta and Coreeedo.
• 995 to 1065: The Imperial Second Survey.
  • There is no sign of the Amalgamation Union, aside from common architectural themes in old capital buildings and monuments.
