Deep in the far reaches of space, societies governed by a single galactic order known as "The Galactic Council" reigns. This awe-inspiring conglomerate exists with the sole purpose of serving as the conduit for a just law, order, and peace among its diverse planetary members.
But before the establishment of the Galactic Council, in it's place: chaos and conflict reigned supreme. Countless coalitions vied for power, and bitter warfare along with economic sabotage plagued the interstellar realms. Amidst this turmoil, a turning point in history came with the development of a weapon of unimaginable destruction: the Solar Laser Project. The masterminds behind this menacing technology were the brilliant minds of Opanious and Gantun, two planets that, despite their initial reluctance to form an alliance, decided to forfeit hostilities in order to pool their knowledge and resources to create a missile system capable of decimating opposing military bases with minimal destruction. This covert project relied on an intricate guidance network intertwined with a state-of-the-art reconnaissance apparatus. Once the lasers had meticulously mapped out their targets, a colossal machine stationed on secret military installation near their respective planets could unleash a precise and devastating laser strike, leaving devastation in its wake, reminiscent of a planet exposed to unfiltered solar flares – hence the weapon's name. However, what was meant to be a safeguard against mutually assured destruction turned into a nightmare when the Solar Laser Project fell victim to a malicious hack. In a baffling display of technological prowess, an unknown infiltrator commandeered the system and retargeted the weapon with lethal precision, sweeping the entire planet Osündo with a lethal beam of concentrated annihilation. The repercussions of this catastrophe were felt across the galaxy, as every planet realized that this advanced technology was no longer confined to the creators' hands, but now within reach of any ally or enemy. The discovery of the Solar Laser Project's vulnerability forced Gantun and Opanious to offer a ceasefire to their enemies, knowing that the possession of such a weapon had shifted the balance of power dramatically. Realizing that this unprecedented technology held the potential to reshape entire economies and decide the fate of entire planets on a whim should it be unleashed at full potential, they sought a peaceful resolution to avoid further calamity. Intriguingly, the origin of this calamity traced back to a rogue planet, existing beyond the jurisdiction of the pre-Council era. Long before the Galactic Council's formation, this planet dispatched spies, who infiltrated the secretive project over three decades earlier. These cunning agents manipulated the weapon's targeting systems, seeking to understand its full power before swiftly copying and believing to destroy its blueprints, leaving behind no evidence of their intrusion. After countless deliberations and meetings, the coalition to which Gantun and Opanious belonged too, agreed to share detailed backup schematics of the weapon, but under the condition that all wars would end, further development of such destructive technologies would cease, and all coalitions would merge into a unified superpower. This strategic move aimed to prevent the looming specter of mutually assured destruction and cultivate lasting peace among the galaxy's inhabitants. After years of tumultuous negotiations and the forging of strong alliances, the Galactic Council was born. Its inaugural day, named "Alpha Antara," marked the beginning of a long and arduous journey. External threats and internal conflicts posed daunting challenges, but the Council remained steadfast in its commitment to establishing peace, order, and prosperity across its planetary members. Science, with its emphasis on logic and reason, took its rightful place as the guiding light for all citizens within the Council, creating an unparalleled interstellar
Society. Following the catastrophic event on Osündo, over ten planets merged to form this unifying power known as the Galactic Council. Through the Council's collective strength, justice, peace, law, order, and safety were brought to every corner of the Galaxy, heralding a new era of progress and unity among the stars. As the pages of history turned, the Galactic Council's legacy would be etched into the annals of time as a beacon of hope for interstellar civilizations.
Their first call to action was hunting down the perpetrators who had stolen the Solar Laser project data. All roads led to the now named Outer Territories, as luck would have it, infiltration was their enemy's speciality, but technological advances were not. These fiends who ultimately helped create the greatest driving force the galaxy has ever seen took nearly a century to reverse engineer. Eventually, the Galactic Council found the base of enemy operations on a planet near the infamous Endless Riff. In a swift, calculated, and correct move on the board, the planet was bombarded with the use of nuclear weapons. Thousands of vessels surrounded the planet as the deep space was lit up like flames in complete darkness. That marked the end of a devastating, and intergalactic threat. It was too late for the enemy to retaliate, they were wiped out. The warring ships stayed for several decades to ensure no signals or survivors would leave the planet.
This show of leadership and decisive action proved that the Galactic Council was a force not to be ignored. Regardless of this new super power, many planets still did not join, instead forming their own coalitions and groups, tensions would seem to rise between them, but ultimately, the Galactic Council proved itself to be the super power of the galaxy as many more than expected began to spontaneously join the ranks of the almighty greatness of the Council.
The only question that now remained: would the awe-powerful and imperishable Council expand it's influence? Or keep to itself?
