Primer

The technology allowing for interplanetary travel, Skyship is a fairly recent rediscovery among the currently strongest powers. There have been great skyfaring civilisations before, but after great falls, it is only now that most civilizations are emerging from an era of isolated, littoral travel. Zemaran, the currently active skylar power which has had access to Path travel for the longest has only had it for a mere 300 years.
Nevertheless, there have already been clashes between various civilisations as tensions build. The Barion Commonwealth and Lechosas have already fought a few battles over territorial disputes. However, uncertainty and the vastness of the sky has lead to both powers favouring proxy wars over direct confrontations. As such, many of the other skylar powers and many smaller nations have also been getting involved.
