Summery of Morian History [Long]

Ok I sat around and wrote this. It's got most of the details in and
gives room to elaborate. If I've made any really bad conceptual errors
please feel free to put in imput.

The Frist Morian Republic

Planetary Geography
* 26.4 hour rotation
* 375 day year
* rotation axis slightly less then Earth's
* gravity of 1.1
* 2 Moons, Myra 65% size of Luna, Mina 15% size of Luna
* 4 main continents (2 approximately equal in size, 1 2/3rds size, 1 1/4
size)
* 55% land 45% water
* geography is mostly flatish with major continental mountain regions
* extensive fresh water rivers and lakes
* salty seas, slightly less then Earth's
* Frozen poles

Stellar Cosmology
* 4 planet system with asteroid belt
* P1 is 2/3rd size of Morian, closer to primary, too hot to be
inhabitable whithout extreme tech support, gravity of 0.8
* P2 is Morian
* P3 is farther out, 20% larger, gravity of 1.3, has rudementary O2 N2
atmosphere with high percentage of toxic gasses, liquid salt seas, 2
main continents, 70% land 30% water, rudementary bacterial life, 1 moon,
50% size of Luna
* Asteroid Belt
* P4 gas giant, well beyond the ring, has 5 moons, 90% size of Jupitor,
2 moons rock with solid amonea seas, 1 rock with large traces of ice, 1
rock with continuous geological instability and eruptions

Pre Space
* Civilisation developed from tibes, villages, empires and city states,
to countries
* warfare used extensively to expand boarders of soveron states
* 3 great wars over 120 years took technology from calvary and single
shot carterage rifles to space based weapons platforms, fusion power,
supersonic jet aircraft, powered armour, and automated manufacturing
* after last war which ended with the destruction of the capitals of 3
nations, and the idustrial capacity of 7, there were only a few regions
capable of full industrial production

The Great Disorder (BR {Before Republic} 34)
* with the huge devistation of the planet governemnts broke down and
order was lost in much of the former nations
* a group of veterans in the southern continent started to enforce order
in their city
* they only allowed veterans to join the decision making process since
they trusted other that had gone through what they had
* as the group expanded they brought the region in line and created a
city state
* at the same time other groups of similar makeup sprang up in other
areas of the planet bring some order back to the choas
* eventually these groups started to amalgamate into full nations, the
nations into reginal Unions then to a planetary government

The Rebirth (FR {Founding of the Republic} 0)
* with the final almalgamation the First Republic was formed
* only those who had served a term in the military were eligable for
citizenship
* all service was voluntary
* only citizens could vote or run in the government
* civilians had the same rights as citizens except sufferage
* The Rebublic started to undo much of hte damage done during the final
war

Solar Colonisation
* space exploration had ended with the begining of the last war
* (FR 62) with the need for new resources the Republic began moving out
into the solar system again
* (FR 74) orbital waystations were built and bases where constructed on
both moons
* (FR 81) expiditions where sent to P1, P3 and the belt
* (FR 86) asteroids where brought back to Morian
* (FR 92) first colony was founded on P3
* (FR 93) expidition sent to P4
* (FR 96) material processing was setup in the belt
* (FR 105) P3 colonies expand and start terraforming
* (FR 105) perminant colonies are setup in the belt
* (FR 115) orbital colonies constructed around P4
* (FR 115) bases establish on P4 moons 3,4

First Contact (FR 147)
* 2 cruiser size and 6 destoyer size bioships jump into the system near
the asteroid belt
* biofleet starts destroying asteroids and feeding on the debris
* Morian Fleet sends a ship to investigate and communicate
* biofleet destroys the scout and heads towards P4
* biofleet skims P4's atmosphere and while sling shotting around the
planet destroys an orbital colony killing 16,000 but not without taking
damage
* a few Fleet ships manage to engage the bioships and cripple one
* biofleet exits the gravit well of P4 and jumps out
* Fleet drags the crippled bioship in for investigation
* 3 weeks later while researchers on on the construct it jumps taking
the space dock with it and 318 researchers and crew
* with the data from the 3 jumps and the reports of the constructs
anatomy R&D work on an FLT drive
* military goes on buildup

Interstellar Expansion (FR 163)
* After many failed attempts the first FTL drone is launched and returns
* (FR 164) first manned FTL flight
* (FR 167) first FLT flight to another star system
* Fleet begins retrofitting FTL into their ships and starting new FLT
classes from the keel up
* 5 planets are found habitable and are colonised
* Nim (FR 171)
* Rioth (FR 172)
* Herlith (FR 172)
* Banic (FR 175)
* Sith (FR 177)
* 6th system colonised by military, Sanctuary (FR 173), no habital
planet but plenty or resourses and both domed planetary colonies and
orbital stations, and dock yards are constructed
* (FR 193) Military HQ is moved to Sanctuary

The First Xeno War (Bug War) (FR 197)
* large biofleet enters Sith system and engages Fleet ships
* bugs land troops on the planet
* after 4 days planet is given up, Fleet attempts to retrive as many
civilians and personel as possible but only get 3 transports out
* military goes on full allert, buildup goes into full gear
* 2 weeks later Herlith is attacked
* Fleet manages to regain control of the system but colony is all but
wiped out.
* 1 week later bugs attack Banic system but fail to get past the Fleet
blocade
* 3 weeks later Fleet and MI attempt to regain Herlith but fails to
regain the planet
* 5 days later bugs launch sneak attack on Morian and bombard 3 cities
before the ships are destroyed
* all attempts are made to locate bugs homeworld
* (FR 198) MI takes back Herlith
* shortly after bug bases discovered on moons and uncolonised planets in
Morian controled systems
* military shores up defences and prepares for a long war

Contact with Man
* possibly make contact (FR 197-199) while attempting to locate bug
homeworld
