Imperium Eternal
The Imperium Eternal, or Lorenverse, is a setting in which the Third Imperium avoids the assassination of Strephon, and does not fall until after the Wave passes through it.
- It is an alternate timeline and the default setting for GURPS Traveller.

Description (Specifications)
In this setting there is no Second Civil War or Rebellion. Archduke Dulinor's ship is destroyed in 1116 en route to Capital, which sparks an investigation that unwinds over several TNS entries.
History & Background (Dossier)
Though there is considerable fuzzy ground on the date, what seems clear is that the Lorenverse divided from the OTU with the setting in motion of the events leading up to Dulinor's ship's destruction. If the event was a conspiracy, then the date is somewhat earlier (perhaps late 1115) than if the gig simply malfunctioned. [1]
The Imperium Eternal timeline re-merges with the OTU sometime between 1400 and 1500, and both timelines are unified for the Galaxiad era. [2]
