Historical Notes - A
Ages of civilization: There are three ages of civilization. The
First Age: Dominated by the technological civilizations of the Elves
and Humans of the First Galactic Empire. The Second Age: Dominated by
the technological civilizations composed of many races but led by
Humans. The Third Age: Sees the rise of post-technological
civilizations dominated by magic and psionics.
Association of Universes: When the Federation
of Universes broke up in the year 53,000 of the Second Age
as a result of the War
of the Liferights vs the Deathrights, the Association was
the result. The Association declined rapidly, and broke up only seven
thousand years after its founding, sundering the various races which
had colonised a dozen universes, perhaps permanently.
