Background: The Corporate Empire of Vespeterium Minor is located on the planet of Arborius. It is one of the 19 states located on the planet. Vespeterium Minor was named Karvassian Minor for around 200 years, when the Family Karvassian ruled over the populous. However, 400 years ago, the Family Vespeterium replaced the Karvassians as the strongest Corporate Enterprise in the state, and eventually of the planet.
After a short civil war, the Family Vespeterium took over, and the state was renamed Vespeterium Minor. Recently, an attack killed all of the other Lord Chancellors that head up the other 18 states on Arborius. In response to this, the Family formally annexed these states, therefore taking over the planet and forming the Corporate Empire of Vespeterium Minor.

isn't cravious-7 one of your enemies considering that they attacked you. Also what buisness does the Roekasifarian Family run and how much is it worth?

Brief History:

Evolution: The Murkosinni are one of many species that evolved from arachnids. Around 7 billion BFR (before Family rule), and around 14 billion BC in Earth years, small spiders began to develop on the planet. As time wore on, and the planet got colder, these spiders began to evolve into a series of different species. One of these species, began to grow to be able to cope with the increasing lack of oxygen caused by the development of Cozzium on the planet. They grew so as to develop a better system of breathing, and meanwhile the other species gradually died out. After 6 billion years of evolution, the Murkosinni had developed into quite intelligent, four limbed beings at around 7-9 feet tall. They showed a high level of intelligence even at this early stage, communicating in a common language and forming into State like soceities.

First Society: The Murkosinni developed as the sole species on their planet that wasn't plant related. As a result, they have developed a superiority complex.

The first soceity was developed by a Family known simply as The Family Keerin (first). Thus began the first recorded history. This age lasted for aorund 3 billion years, and it saw the development of the Murkosinni into the intelligent lifeforms that they are today.

The Corporate Empire of Elosiquavian Minor: In the fifth age, in the year 288 of the Zerqullian age, the dream that all powerful Families had, world domination, came true for one. The Family Elosiquavian overthrew the Family Zerqullian in a brutal civil war. For 500 years, the Elosiquavians ruled a reasonably small state, but had power over all corporate enterprise in the world. Then, they decided to kill the other Lord Chancellors and take control of all nations. This formed the First Corporate Empire.

The End of Empire: The Corporate Empire lasted for around 3007 years. A line of Lord Chanellors from the Family Elosiquavian ruled the planet. Then, the Family just stopped to reproduce, and they died out. A new Family, the Family Crivotorian, tried to take over the Empire, but in three years it had fragmented and 19 states had formed from it.

Space Travel: The Murkossinians had perfected space travel quite quickly (around 1500 AD in Earth years). They had been driven by the obvious signs of life present on the other planets in the Cravious System. The Murkosinnians are a very scientific, cold and calculating race. They only fought wars in pursuit of power, and these wars were often short and to the point with minimum loss of life. They are also reasonably weak, meaning that they have to put their keen minds to problems rather than resorting to violence. That way, their space program grew unhindered. Their first trip into space wielded some unexpected results. Different animals that had along the line, evolved from different species. They were fascinated by this, if slightly wary. They soon built bigger and better space probes, and within 50 years of first exploration, had fought, and won their first interstellar war (against radically inferior technology).

The Family Vespeterium: The recent Family Vespeterium took over when they defeated the Family Karvassian in another short Civil War. The leader of the Family, Paulo Von Gerrit Vespeterium, was only young at the time, at the age of 235, but he was also ruthless and ambitious.

The Second Empire: Recently, a bomb killing all other Lord Chancellors made the Family the sole owners of the entire world. This formed the second Corporate Empire.

isn't cravious-7 one of your enemies considering that they attacked you. Also what buisness does the Roekasifarian Family run and how much is it worth?

Ok But for enemies put the inhabitants of Cravious-7

The humans that inhabit Cravious 7 are my enemies. But the Family doesn't consider the planet to be legally theirs. And the Family Roekasifarian runs an arms and techo business, though estimates are obscure, because the Families like to keep it that way.

The Ages of Vespeterium:

The First Age, known as BFR (Before Family Rule), lasted 7 billion years and occurred as the race developed. (14 billion-7 billion BC)

The Second Age, KA (Keerin Age) lasted 3 billion years. This was the formation of the first societies under the Family Keerin, and though the Family didn't rule for this long, while their line remained the Age was called KA.(7 billion-4 billion BC).

The Third Age, CA (Chaos Age) lasted for around 3 billion years. It wasn't an age of Chaos really, but not many records were kept which the Murkosinnians find odd. (4 billion BC-1 billion BC).

The Fourth Age, FA (literally the fourth Age) this was a time of reestablishment and the construction of society. (1 billion BC-2003BC).

The Fifth Age, ZA (the Zerquillian Age). The Family Zerquillian took over as the head of the worlds most powerful Empire. Therefore, this is named the
Zerqullian Age. The Family Zerquillian only ruled for 288 years, but the first 500 years of the rule of the Family Elosiquavian were counted in this age as well. (2003BC-1215BC).

The Sixth Age, FCE (First Corporate Empire). This was the period in which the Family Elosiquavian quite literally, ruled the world. The Corporate empire of Elosiquavian Minor spanned the enitre land surface of Arborius. The Empire lasted for exactly 3007 years. Space Travel was perfected in the year 2748 FCE (1533AD). (1215BC-1792AD).

The Seventh Age, AE (After Empire). This was the Age that followed the stability of the Corporate Empire. It lasted as a time when Arborius was divided into 19 different states. (1792AD-2088AD).

The Eighth Age, SA (Space Age). It is a little odd of why the Murkosinnians chose to call this the Space Age, since it occurred 555 years after they first travelled into space, but maybe it's because they had started to get a real feeling as an intergalatic community, rather than just as an individual planetary community. (2088AD-20,000AD).

The Ninth Age: LC (The Age of the Lord Chancellors). This lasted a reasonably short amount of time. Just 200 years. This Age ended when the Family Vespeterium became the ultimate power on the planet.

The Tenth Age: VA (Vespeterium Age). The Family Vespeterium had the honour of becoming only the third Family to have an Age named after them. This is because they dominated Murkosinnian politics in these years. (20,000AD-20,442AD).

The Eleventh Age: SCE (Second Corporate Empire). This Age has just begun. It began when the Family Vespeterium claimed all other nations after the Lord Chancellors were assasinated by human terrorists. It has so far lasted a three years. (20,442AD-present).

History of Major Intergalatic Warfare of the Murkosinnians.

The First Cyber War: In 17AE, the states of Arborius united to drive out the robotic population that had settled the planet of Rezuen 8, a planet not too far from Arborius. This was harder than first thought, as the Cyber Union joined the robots in their fight. Eventually the Murkosinnians were forced to exept a compromise allowing the Cyber Union to occupy Rezeun 8 to watch over the Robots there. War: 17-19AE.

The Second Cyber War: In 249AE the states of Arborius once again united against the robotic population on Rezuen 8. This time, after a long bloody war against the Cyber Union, they were victorious and were able to claim Rezuen 8. War: 249-254AE.

The Third Cyber War: This short conflict of just a year occurred when the resurgent forces of the Cyber Union attempted to invade the planet of Arborius. They were roundly defeated and spent much of the rest of the war hiding. War: 271-272AE.

The Fifth Corporate War: In this war many of the states on Arborius united on the side of the Corporate Alliance, against the forces of the Freedom Alliance, including the powerful states of the Gaian Ascendancy (if anybody I mention don't want their names here just say), Neo Zeta, the Eternals and Makaar. They lost the war and were forced to pay reparations. War: 7-14SA

The Sixth Corporate War: Fought thousands of years after the Fifth Corporate War, the states of Arborius were much stronger now and they once again united with the Corporate Alliance. The Freedom Alliance were greatly weakened with the Gaian Ascendency and Neo Zeta pulling out of the alliance, and the Eternals and Makaarians offering only token aid. Most Battles were fought for the Freedom Alliance by the United Jedi Armies. The war ended shortly after the Corporate Alliance crushed the United Jedi Armies in the Battle of Yestern. A good peace was taken from the war, giving the Corporations greatly improved rights. War: 13,188-13,191SA.

The Eight Corporate War: 'The Greatest Catastrophe to befall the Murkossinian species' Michin Vork Allas Trevusian described this war as. The states of Arborius (exept Trevusian Minor) once again joined the Corporate Alliance in a mission to conquer the home planet of the Chronosian Empire, who had been refusing to buy from the Corporations. Of course, the mission was a complete catastrophe and only a very desperate plea from Michin prevented an invasion of Arborius itself. This taught the Murkossinians not to punch above their weight.
War:13,344-13,346SA.

The First Jedi War: This is really misleading, as it has been one big war, but the Murkosinnians refer to this (so far) four year conflict as the First and Second Jedi Wars. The First Jedi War lasted only 1 week. The forces of Vespeterium Minor, Zactarn Prime and Sith Shadows invaded the Jedi stronghold destroying the Temple of the Cravian Jedi and the combined fleets of Zactarn Prime and Sith Shadows defeated the Jedi fleet in the three hour long Battle of Cravious. The Jedi were driven from the system and the Axis declared Victory. 421VA.

The Second Jedi War: This as the second phase of the War, and is still ongoing. It has so far been a disaster for the Axis. The Cravian Jedi re-entered the Cravian system Six months after being driven out, with Jedi from other systems forming the United Jedi Armies. They defeated the combined fleets of Vespeterium Minor and Zactarn Prime in a surprise attack. They have since then been invading Sith colonies. 422VA-2SCE
