I've been working on some things in my spare time - it's been fun to have a new project. I started out writing a couple of characters for Going Rogue 2e, and then things got out of hand. What if hyperspace travel was slower, what if there's no artificial gravity, what if habitable planets were rare, etc.

Here's little timeline a threw together to organize some thoughts. I have probably 2000 words of other notes I will not be showing right now.

YearEvents
0Beamships arrive; surveying and terraforming begins; date is conventional, many historians suggest the arrival of the First People occured several centuries earlier
c.1000Widespread terraforming efforts and settlement in progress across known galaxy
c.2000"Primary Crisis" begins, cause unknown; this precipitates systemic collapse of interlinked planetary economies; likely exacerbated by ecological problems on terraformed planets, due to pathogens and unforseen environmental changes; technology of the First People is effectively lost after this point
c.3000Settled planetary populations enter a period of growth, reversing previous trends
c.4000Unification Era: new interplanetary states coalesce, regular contact between systems becomes the norm; accords are made, planning undertaken to ensure long term stability
c.6000Succession crisis in the central systems; records unclear, chronologies fragmentary; conflict is widespread
c.7000Coalition Era: large multi-system states dominate the galaxy
c.8000Coalitions begin to fragment, factions turn on each other; wars are rare and limited in scope; despite mistrust, economic connections remain in place
9080Senneven Empire founded in Belamang (Yevakadzi)
c.9600Capitalist imperialism emerges in Central Ring systems; economic and military into Southern and Eastern Arc regions
c.9800Peak of Senneven expansion; majority of Western Arc systems under Senneven control
9905Consular Systems Alliance is formed on Calandria; several Central Ring governments sign on; CAS poised to become the central political power in the galaxy
10119Senneven Empire begins to retract and fragment; economic and political connections wither; outlying systems revert to local control; CAS is now the hegemonic authority in the galaxy
10181Annexation of Belamang (Yevakadzi) under Consular Mandate
10231Annexation of Tamzagar (Dar-Kalbek) under Consular Mandate
10257Now

There are a few references to System (Main Planet) if you are wondering about those.
