The Three Galaxies
Within the Three Galaxies are over a thousand spacefaring races and up to x3 that number when it comes to sentient races that are less technologically advanced. It is dominated by two intergalactic powers, the warlike and expansionist Trans-Galactic Empire (TGE) and the democratic Consortium of Civilized Worlds (CCW). The two powers have warred with each other for centuries.
The largest galaxy is Corkscrew which is 90,000 light years long and 2,000 light years thick. Nearby is the Thundercloud galaxy which is 20,000 light years away and is 30,000 light years long and 2,000 light years thick, and the Anvial galaxy which is 30,000 light years away and is 20,000 light years long and less than 1,000 light years wide. The local galaxy group is 170,000 light years long at the widest. The next galaxy that is the closest to them is 300,000 light years away.
The great majority of worlds that are inhabitable for humanoids exist far from the galactic cores and most of these worlds are on the galaxies' "surface". The Trans-Galactic Empire controls a third of the Corkscrew (the southern part), and one third each of the Thundercloud and Anvil galaxies. The Consortium of Civilized Worlds in turn dominates a third of the Corkscrew (mostly the northern part), a fifth of the Thundercloud, and half of the Anvil. The far smaller United Worlds of Warlock dominates a fifth of the Anvil and in the Corkscrew a few worlds.
All other spacefaring civilizations rule at most a tenth of a galaxy and most of them rule only a few worlds. The local galaxy group has billions of stars and worlds, though inhabitable worlds number much less (hundreds of thousands) and only a small fraction of those have been colonized and developed. Among these dominions are three that belong to the evil transdimensional conquerors, the Splugorth. Not an actual polity but a power in the Three Galaxies nonetheless is the sinister transdimensional megacorporation, Naruni Enterprises.
The Corkscrew galaxy has 12 trillion, the Thundercloud has 7 trillion, and the Anvil has 6 trillion. The numbers do not include sentients that live on "uninhabitable" worlds, at least for carbon-based lifeforms. Due to wars, astronomical disasters, and plagues the three galaxies are underpopulated. Humans make up 12% of the population (3 trillion). Wolfen make up 10%, the Kreeghor make up 8%, and the remaining approx 3,000 sentient races make up 3% or less (most of them far less). In the three galaxies there are over 10,000 major languages and nearly a x100 the dialects and variations.
