Brief Timeline to 1902

From 1200 through 1450, the whole of Charted Space undergoes disruptive change which leaves worlds incapable of supporting themselves. As a result, most colonies fail. Some worlds hang on by stripping dieback colonies of supplies, but in time those supplies give out and those worlds fail as well. The few worlds that survive this phase find a technological equilibrium and focus on keeping themselves alive and safe. These become Strong Worlds.

A few of these Strong Worlds eventually form the nucleus of emerging pocket empires. By year 1900, a handful of these empires have taken root, separated from one another by tenuous routes 40 to 50 parsecs long. These empires set the stage for the Galaxiad.

• (1310): Both the Regency and the "Fourth Imperium" are officially considered dead. The next 200 years are called The Collapse, a period of damaging chaos and full-on upheaval.
• (14??): Regina reaches TL-16, but the achievement is short-lived.
• (15??): The Foreven War. Regina is EMP'ed.
