2518 | Givers land on Ki homeworld. |
2519 | Purists can't keep up their long distance offensive war against Satirli 6. Purists offer peace, and Satirli 6 accepts. Satirli 6, Wilson 4 and Wilson 6 form League of Planets to defend themselves against future Purist aggression. |
FIRST GALACTIC WAR, 2520 - 2535 | |
---|---|
Back to top | |
Year | Event |
2520 |
|
2521 | Purists see the Union at war and declare Second Holy war on the infidels. |
2522 |
|
2523 |
|
2524 | Planetary Union brings full force to bear on Sklorno navy, which has regrouped and is heading for Whitok homeworld. The largest battle of the war ensues. Union forces drive off Sklorno, but not before the Sklorno saturation-bomb Whitok homeworld. Most life on Whitok destroyed and planet is uninhabitable. |
2525 |
|
2526 | Whitok offer Reiger 2 to Planetary Union in thanks after refusing to join Union. Addition of Reiger 2 leaves New Whitok, the Kingdom's only remaining planet, well inside Union borders. |
2527-2549 | The Age Of Colonization.
|
2530 | Portath achieve FTL capability (estimated). At unknown dates, Portath colonize Thew and Faskah. |
2531 |
|
2533 | Sklorno, despite warnings from Planetary Union, attack New Whitok. Whitok Kingdom's savage new navy has been waiting for revenge for nine years, and defeat Sklorno in pitched battle. |
2535 | Planetary Union sign treaty of friendship with Purist Nation. League of Planets and Whitok Kingdom voice their objections to treaty. |
SECOND GALACTIC WAR, 2536 - 2552 | |
---|---|
Back to top | |
Year | Event |
2536 | |
2537 | Leekee, trying to surprise Whitok forces at Whiropt, travel into Portath Cloud. Forty-seven ships are never heard from again as entire force disappears. (editor's note- this was the Leekee's biggest blunder, as it gave Whitok time to rebuild its navy. Had Leekee attacked directly with the 47 ships, it could have claimed half of the Whitok Kingdom's territory.) |
2538 |
|
2539 |
|
2540 |
|
2551 |
|
2552 |
|
THIRD GALACTIC WAR, 2553 - 2559 | |
---|---|
Back to top | |
Year | Event |
2553 |
|
2554 |
|
2556 |
|
2557 |
|
2558 |
|
2559 | Rewall, hot off their victory over the Ki Rebels, launch a surprise attack against Prawatt-controlled Yewalla. They quickly defeat the Prawatts, who are still weak from war with Sklorno. Rewalls execute all Prawatts in retaliation for actions of 2525. |
ERA OF COMMERCE, 2560 - 2589 | |
---|---|
Back to top | |
Year | Event |
2561 | Ki declare themselves trading capitol of the galaxy and sign non-aggression pacts with every system, excluding Prawatt. |
2562 | Tower and Leekee conduct The Great Planet Trade. Leekee added one of Tower's moons (New Leekee). Tower adds two planets in Leekee system (Fortress and Citadel). |
2563 | Ki colonize To. |
2568 | Harrah claim Satah, which is deep in Whitok space. Whitok are unable to use planet, but still threaten war. Union enters as intermediary; Harrah buy the planet from Whitok for $50 billion. |
2569 | Harrah claim Lorah, which Planetary Union has rights to but cannot live on. Caught in same argument they used against Whitok, Union reluctantly sells planet to Harrah for $57 billion. |
2572 |
|
2573 |
|
2574 | Quyth retaliate to "unprovoked" attacks and send 600 ships to attack New Whitok. Combined Union and Whitok force meet Quyth fleet. Quyth lost 450 ships before retreating, Whitok lost 78 and Union lost 45 (editor's note- largest single battle in Galaxy's history). Whitok and Quyth agree to a cease-fire. |
2581 | Sklorno attack Drghp. Kurgurk unleash asteroid battleships and destroy Sklorno invaders. |
2582 | Whitok, fearing an attack from Leekee (their navy was still very weak from Quyth war), trade rights to Whopol to Ki for weapons, ships and credit. |
2584 | Ki develop deep mineral sites on Whopol that the Whitok were unaware of. Resulting wealth thrusts Ki Empire past League of Planets into top economic power in the galaxy. |
2587 | Pirate attacks begin in earnest on Ki shipping lanes. |
2588 |
|
2589 | Ki Imperial Navy capturing more pirates, finding most to be human with some Ki. |
FOURTH GALACTIC WAR, 2591 - 2600 | |
---|---|
Back to top | |
Year | Event |
2591 | Purists use seven captured Unions ships (captured in the last war) to attack convoy just off of To. Ki cripple one ship, which the purists have filled with captured Union soldiers (also from the last war). Ki troops find only dead Union soldiers. |
2592 |
|
2593 |
|
2594 |
|
2595 |
|
2596 | Planetary Union very close to surrender. Fleet operating at 34 percent of original numbers. Death toll reaching 70 million. |
2597 |
|
2598 |
|
2600 |
|
THE GREAT PEACE | |
---|---|
Back to top | |
Year | Event |
2601 | Planetary Union buys back Jones 2. Purists sell because they do not want to go to war in their weakened state. |
2610 | The Great Mapping Conference. System borders are hammered out to everyone's satisfaction. The new map clearly marks territory and makes it obvious to identify the aggressor. This brings about a relative peace. |
2625 | Orbital Station Four disaster, kills 590,786 Quyth and brings the Orbital Station program to an end. |
2634 | Quyth claim that map is incorrect, that Sklorno border is too close to Gritchlik and Chikchik. |
2636 | Second Galactic Peace Conference held. Quyth and Sklorno are not liked by anyone, and little attention is paid to their border dispute. |
2637 |
|
2638 |
|
THE CRETERAKIAN AGE, 2639 - 2657 | |
---|---|
Back to top | |
Year | Event |
2639 | Creterakians achieve FTL capability. Quyth, Rewalls and Harrah claim Creterak. Creterakians claim allegiance to no one and friendship to all. (editor's note - the Creterakians had been quietly monitoring the galactic events of the past 200 years without being discovered. They knew exactly what was going on when they announced their presence. The are far ahead of where any other race was at the FTL discovery phase of their histories). |
2640 |
|
2641 |
|
2642 |
|
2643 |
|
2644 | In an effort to control cross-species violence and racism, the Creterakians take over all shipping between worlds. |
2645 | Creterakian shipping proves to be clumsy and poorly communicated. Goods and services are delivered late, often not at all, and industry begins to suffer heavily. |
2646 |
|
2647 |
|
2648 | The Creterakians give up on their role as the galaxy's shippers, turning the duties over to the Ki Empire. |
2649 | The Ki Empire provides an overall organizational structure, coordinating the shipping fleets of all subjugated governments. Almost overnight, the demand for imported goods and services skyrockets as items once again become available on most worlds. |
2650 | The Planetary Union introduces a galactic supply-and-demand computing system, tying all shipping vessels into one gigantic, coordinated fleet. Economic recovery continues to boom. |
2651 |
|
2652 | Cross-species violence becomes an epidemic as terrorists do the unthinkable, simultaneously nuking three cities (one each on the Planetary Union's Earth, Leekee Collective's Grinkas and Ki Empire's Ki). Purist Nation is suspected, but there is no proof. |
2653 |
|

|
THE GALACTIC FOOTBALL LEAGUE ERA | |
---|---|
Back to top | |
Year | Event |
2658 |
|
2659-2661 | The GFL is an immediate success, as it forces species to work together. In addition, it is the first occurrence in decades where fans of one species root for players of another. |
2662 | The GFL expands to 14 teams. |

2670 | The 22-team GFL enjoys a successful season without any violence. |
2671 | League officials are flooded with requests by teams wanting to join the GFL. |
2672 | The GFL reorganizes, absorbing the former IGFL teams as "Second Tier" teams. |
2682 | (The Rookie). |
