Vespeterium Minor

The United Republics of Vespeterium Minor occupies the system known as Starcraft. Vespeterium Minor itself is the name of a City State on the planet of Arborius. During the Dark Ages Vespeterium Minor united all other City States on their Continent of Etora under Vespeterium rule, and then established the Arborian League with City states on other Continents. These later united under Vespeterium Minor to become the United Republics of Vespeterium Minor.
Full Name: The United Republics of Vespeterium Minor
Short Versions: Vespeterium Minor, the vespeterium Republics, the Arborian Republics
Capital City: Vespeterium Minor
Location of Capital: On the Eastern reaches of the Continent of Etora, on the planet of Arborius
Location of Arborius: Arborius is the third planet from the Second Sun in Starcraft.
Location of State: The United Republics of Vespeterium Minor includes 18 different planets, some very close and others bordering other systems.
Government Type: Moderate Oligarchy
Head of State: The Grand Archan, Reein Sovo Axes Vespeterium
Head of Government: The same
Governing Body: The Council of the Republics
Species within the State: Arborian 33%, Ferra-Ka 21%, Human 33%, 10% Independent Android, 3% other
Economic Overview: The United Republics has one of the most powerful economies in Starcraft.
Exports: Steel, Iron, Oil, Gold, Silver, Quagarn (a fish in the frozen lakes of Arborius, a delicacy in some parts of the Galaxy) Copper and Quilit-Grain (a foodstuff that is very common on Arborius, it provides food for billions at low cost and grows quickly. Doesn't taste too good though).
Climate on Arborius: Arborius is a cold and hostile planet. It is the only planet orbiting the 'Second sun' to support life. It had a cycle of 13 hours in a day, 15 days in a week, 50 weeks in a month and 18 months in a year. Winter lasts 16 of these months.
Technology on Arborius: The Arborians are a space-faring species and have mastered light speed engines. They also have acess to plasma and laser technology, and have the ability to Terra-Form planets as they wish. On the planet itself the City States are linked by a diverse Light Rail system with a 'train' that moves at the speed of sound. There are also teleportation chambers, but these are for the rich. Much of the mining is done by machines, by the Arborians still do manual labour themselves. The City itself is quite advanced, with massive skyscrapers reaching far into the clouds, with the largest being the 'Palace of the Republics', the seat of Government. Beneath the City blast furnaces work all day long to keep the City heated and to construct everyday Arborian objects.
Finally, here is a reference to the Arborians measurement of time (as they don't use BC and AD obviously).
First Age: PC-Pre-Civilization. This period is the longest lasting from 3 billionPC-1PC. This covers the evolution of the Arborians and their first small societies.
Second Age: FC-First Civilization. This period covers the first development of the Arborians from cave dwelling arachnids to urban creatures. It covers 1FC-2503FC.
Third Age: DA-Dark Age. This is when very few records survive of the Arborians, though it is known that in the years of 2733-2755DA, Paulo Von Gerrit I united the City States of Etora under Vespeterium Minor, the most advanced of the cities. The age lasts from 1DA-2759DA
Fourth Age: GA-Golden Age. During this time, the Arborians advanced rapidly. Space flight was developed in 112GA, and it advanced at a rapid pace, with hyper engines being developed soon after. Plasma and laser technology was also created during this time. The Arborian league was formed in 300GA in order to combat human colonists of the Arborian moon of Temma. In this short war, the Arborians were able to go on an Imperial building spree. This age lasted from 1GA-2007GA when office of Archan was abolished and the Emperors reigned.
Fifth Age: IA-Imperial Age. During this time, Vespeterium Minor was ruled by Emperors. Decline began to set in with the Ferran Wars (29-32IA) and the Android Rebellion (399IA). A lengthy war with the people of Makkia followed in which the Nutral zone was established. This Age runs from 1IA-1497IA
Sixth Age: SIA. Second Imperial Age. The Empire regrows during this time, but an overthrow of the Emperor marks the end of this. Age lasts 1SIA-1311SIA.
Seventh Age: AOR. Age of Restoration. So called because the Emperor is overthrown and the office of Archan is restored. This age is one the Arborians rethinking their place in the Galaxy and their systems of Government. Paulo Von Gerrit is appointed Archan in 2321AOR. He initiates a reign of terror and declares himself Emperor in 2327AOR. The Vespeterium Civil War (2327-2329AOR) sees his overthrow and replacement by his brother Reein Vespeterium. The age ends in 2329.
Eight Age: NA. New Age. Reein Vespeterium suggested naming this 'New Age' as it signified a change in the Arborian outlook, more significant than ever before. So far the age has lasted seven years.
