Ziirb Interstellar Expansion

Discovery, Exploration

The inhabitants of Virvv were never especially interested in spaceflight, deeming the deep dark between stars far too dangerous to investigate. Consequently, the ziirpu only operated nine autonomous interplanetary probes to explore the precious few bodies in the Zmiinr system. Some time after the creation of the Nzmarri Arbiter, however, this attitude changed. The Arbiter saw great potential, even necessity, in exploring interstellar space, creating a vision of a multiplanetary civilization too appealing for its organic forbears to ignore. Thus, over eleven and a half thousand years after the skgri'i first ventured to the stars, the ziirpu did the same, albeit far slower. After contact with the shyxaure in the Beta Hydri system, the formation of the Shyxaure-Ziirpu Alliance allowed Virvvian civilization to expand at a greater pace on the coattails of the more adventurous Worldtribe.
