control over Earth and Sol's colonies, the UN still existed as an organization and a political entity to continue mediating between \
countries and colonies. In 2291, Tobias Shaw and Wallace Fujikawa invented a device that could transition normal matter into slipspace \

Sagittarius arms of the galaxy. However, regions beyond that are too far for the USDF to be a major player."
history = "Earth's clashes with dissident political movements, the most important of which were the \"Red Faction\" and \"Storm Front,\" \
began the crisis that led to the formation of the USDF. The Storm Front movement was a fascist organization based on the Jovian \
Moons, a group that received backing from some corporations operating in the Federal Republic of Germany on Earth. Their \
ideological opponents, the Red Faction, formed a Marxist-Leninist group on Mars centered around the leadership of Vladimir Koslov \
around the same time. The USDF was commissioned in 2163 as a military force primarily composed of Naval and Marine \
forces. In July 2164, the USDF partook in its first battle. From this point, the USDF was used by the UN in conflicts, \
including the Interplanetary War. When the conflicts of Sol ended, a newly powerful Unified Earth Government (later SolGov) \
and USDF began to expand into the stars. The apex of human expansion would come in 2490, when more than 600 worlds were \
considered part of SolGov's territory, many developing into full-fledged colonies. By this time, a ring of Outer colonies \
was providing SolGov with the raw materials that made the macro-economy function; with the political power remaining with \
the Inner colonies. The massive difference in wealth distribution and political power, which became a hallmark of humanity \
by this period, led to new threats of secession from the outer ring. In 2492, the colony of Far Isle was razed by nuclear \
weapons after a massive uprising, creating a new found reason to rebel. SolGov began to wage a bloody struggle against \
groups of terrorists (or freedom fighters) called the Insurrectionists, who wanted independence. The USDF continues to battle \
sepratists to this day. The USDF's operations meanwhile focus on curbing piracy operations, as well as providing a deterrent \

The USDF's victory in that war was largely accredited to intelligence and technology advancements provided by ONI during that time, \
most notably of which was the reverse-engineering of Unathi vessels, allowing the production of countermeasures that played a crucial \
role during in the late stages of the conflict. After the war, ONI's resources were pooled into numerous top secret projects; much of \
which remains unknown or outright denied to the public even today. Among their suspected activities include exploration, weapons \
development, xenoarcheology, xenobiology, corporate espionage, and manipulation of political affairs."

desc = "Also known as the \"Golden Empire\", Auream Imperium is a superpower of elf-like humanoid beings who thrive in the southern \
galaxy, presumably somewhere in the mid Centaurus Arm. Having existed in the observation shadow of the galactic core, this \
galactic superpower had remained undiscovered by humanity despite its size until only recently. First contact was made on \
June 15th 2561, when Imperial Navy cartographers stumbled upon the Virgo-Erigone system, far from the influence of the USDF. \
Though little is currently known about the Golden Empire, their scholars have been willing to share some information. They \
are currently ruled by a woman referred to as Empress Gutamir who is allegedly hundreds of years old. Images and portraits \
of the empress depict a tall woman with an idealized figure of beauty as might have been seen in ancient Roman or Greek \
works of art. She has white hair, silvery eyes, and a fair complexion. Whether or not these images are an authentic or \
even an accurate depiction remains unknown. Vessels of the Golden Empire utilize technology unlike anything humans have ever \
seen. Although they use bluespace for FTL travel, the methods in which they tap into bluespace has yet to be studied in any \
detail by human scientists. Their kind hails from a binary system of Earth-like worlds called Sanctum and Venio, though the \
exact location of these worlds is not known due to a culture of secrecy toward outsiders."
history = "According to Imperial scholars, the Golden Empire is a civilization that has existed for at least 10,000 Earth years. \
Their home system is said to host not one but two Earth-like worlds, both of which have been home to elves as far as their \
records go back. How the elves were able to travel between these worlds is currently unknown, but apparently they have been \
doing so for at least the last 2000 years. However, from what is understood, until only 300 years ago, these accomplishments \
were only made possible by a very limited number of ships apparently using borrowed technology from an undiscovered \
civilization they call \"Architectus.\" Curiously, the Golden Empire's primary language is strikingly similar to ancient \
Latin on Earth, indicating that they may have somehow come into contact with Earth at some point in their history. However, \
this contradicts what historical records they have been willing to share with us, as it would predate the timeline of space \
travel they have given us so far."
