Historical Data

When the Federation of the Fused Mains was first incorporated, not all of the worlds in its two mains were inhabited. It was envisioned that one subcapital for each main - Core Unity and Rim Unity - would suffice. This was almost true, but growth along the trailing side of what would later be named the Spike-Rho Route resulted in a need for additional administrative capacity. Formal recognition as a subcapital came after the passing of the Empress Wave, which left Thessue by far the highest population world in the Federation.
