As it exsists today, the nation of Jesusvainia is the conjegation of the entire planet of Rongus. It has been this way for only 25 years. For reference, the current year is 35 PD (After Destruction) and 2535 by the old time scale.

Year 0:

This was the year when the great alliance was formed between Rem, Lum, and Orm. This was the first time that peace was found. Year 0 was notable for amazing advancements in scientific technoilogy. Aquaducts became widley used. Three major cities were established to balence the governemnt.

Year 200:

The balence of power began to swing between the members executive tribunal. The goal of each faction was to obtain the newest scientific advancement, explosive powder. It was determined that this discover was to be stufied throughly over the next 50 years equally.

Year 500:

In a remote village outside of the capitol of Orm, a miner prospecting for iron discovered a thick black liquid. He accidently dropped his candle into the goo. The other memeber of his team on the surface of the shaft remeber seeing the ground mushroom up. Schoolers studied the properties of this new substance and found it to be quite explosive. The new susbstance was named Oirl. The r was later dropped.

Year 600:

Homosexual relations were banned from the mainland. All gays and criminals, as well as those who were especially liberal, were banished to the oposite side of the Rongus. They formed the commune of Liber.

Year 700:

A major debate erupted over the use of gas turbine vehicles vs. gas piston vehicles. It was never fully settled as it was seen that turbine vehicled were superior for simplicity and maintainence howver the had less acceleration than piston vehicles. The final ruling by the transportation ministry was that turbines should be used by all large and goverment owned vehicles.

Year 1200:

The population of the planet reached 2 billion. A major industrial revolution began that would not subside for 600 years. Giant mechanical computers were created to calulate engineering problems required to build the massive structure during the era. The height of the largest building reached 163 stories.

Year 1500:

The planet became facinated with a new prospect, space. As amzing as science had become, it was still believed that stars were only an electromagnetic phenomenon. It was discovered that there was a point when the atmosphere dissapeared along with gravity. Science was amazed and began to reinvent itself.

Year 1590:

Fusion power was obtained.

Year 1700:

Ships had been constructed and had explored most of the solar system. A gas giant was discovered and had been tested for useful resources. They found a hydrogen/boron atmosphere. Over the next 100 years a fleet of massive tankers were built to exploit these resources.

Year 1800:

This was the first ime in 600 years that the economy went down. The investments in space were not paying as investors had predicted because the ways of getting things down from space were incredibly unadvnaced. The world began on an insane project to make this more profitable, it almost bankrupt Rongus.

Year 2000:

The project was completed. Three giant asteriods were docked above towers on the planets surface. These were massive pipelines to transport resources to the surface. The ports in the asteriods became big bussiness.

Year 2100:

The economy was in full swing due to the massive profits from space. Computer technolgy made a giant leap from mechanical to electronic. The first vacuum tubes were created. THis allowed for space craft to communicate via radio rather than by light signals.

Year 2300:

Faster than light travell was acheived however no habiltable planets were discovered. FTL was deemed a waste of time.

Year 2400:

The largest tanker ever devised was completed in the Lum shipyards. It was 17 km long. The control system was revolutionary, it used a new technology called transistors. On the bridge was the first master systems display using a CRT screen. Quantum balencing technolgy was developed.

Year 2499:

An asteriod was detected 4 minuted before it smashed into the surface of Rongus. It killed almost all of 20 billion people on the planet. Only 100 million survied due to the fact thatr they were on space based facilities. All seemed lost.

Year 2510, Year 0 PD:

People began to return ot the surface to an empty shell of a planet. The remaining populations began to reproduce and rebuild. THe first transmissions from another planet were discovered, it was called televangilsim from a place called earth. In these struggling times the population adopted it quickly. New ships were commisioned to explore other worlds to find the thesability of moving the civilization. THis was the year they contacted another race, the ECF.
