Talk:Second Age

OK, basic guidelines: The Second Age covers the Awakening of Peoples, followed by the rise and stagnation of the Glactic Senate.

Alliance wins the Battle for Sol.

The Crash - Helios Network goes down for 3 standard years.

The Reboot - Helios Network reboots and Empires of the Alliance begin to start communicating again.

Awakening of Peoples - Formerly repressed races start to form their own Empires

The Gathering - Kaligari Republic, Ansa-Dur Adaptive, and Confederation of Allied Systems form a power bloc that swiftly becomes the Galactic Senate.

The senate works out the secret of the gate network.

The Senate continues long enough to become ineffectual and corrupt, yet still rule with an iron fist.

FTL Drives are invented by the Neo-Terran Directorate, and appear on both Directorate and a number of ships of other non-senate Empires. Nagebenfro 08:52, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
