It got nuked by the Middle Eastern powers.  Thats why they created a new
homeeorld.  And the Semitic Federation.

By the way considering the waning power of the nation state all this
talk
of nations may be rather academic.  In the context of FT though nations
(or
at least power blocks) are imporatant.	Its rather a cold war setup
really
with various large skirmishs breaking out called wars but not really
toppling the balance of power.
