It is the year 2276 AD.

It has been a century since humanity discovered alien life, and it is plentiful. Sentient species amalgamate into distinct interplanetary polities. Some partner up into powerful extranational organisations.

It is the year 2276 AD.

It has been half a century before the galaxy's first uplift attempt failed spectacularly. Only half a decade since the galaxy's youngest country emerged from a bloody civil war. And only half a year since it became a regional power.

It is the year 2276 AD.
