For any of the explicitly mentioned, undated events in the timeline above, give a date and some short details.

However, if you want more detail about the event, ask that as a separate question. (fiat roll: 2 sentences per year/event)

As for Qn 63, we don't know how the Heaven's Tribes, who are given as a powerful force with nanotech spacecraft, and who can defeat the TL11 Seneclex defenses and whom couldn't be stopped by other human nations, were actually defeated, so the question is still effectively open as I'd just have to ask it again with a different wording. You've built on the V'tt in a later answer, so we can keep them as the cause.

The republic docks, the forty fourth republic's gateway to new Hong Kong, are much more muted and business like, and leans more industrial than commercial. They are policed by Quarentine enforcement rather than Customs , and the stark difference between the two shows. Question 74 Does anyone keep an embassy on New Hong Kong, or is it more appropriate to maintain diplomatic ties nearer the capital? (1 Sentence)

Re: [GAME] Assemble a Space Station!
A74, Volume I
Some Republican History 62 Years after the settlement of Plato's Cave and Morton's Fork, the 39th Republic was founded in 1541 ETR. It was declared in response to the 38th Republic establishing relations with the Tarkan Network. After the Battle of Pascal Prime (Spinward Alliance sources refer to the planet as New Kowloon), the Pentyche Colony applied for admission to the 39th Republic, inspired in part by desperate actions by a 39ther corvette. The 40th Republic was founded on the 28th of March 1628 ETR, in commemoration of the reunification of the Pentyche with greater humanity. The 42nd Republic was established in the wake of the Tarkan crisis in 1694 ETR. Defense Chairman Koizumi was given broad and undefined powers for the duration of the national emergency. The 43rd Republic was promulgated on May 22nd 1713, after months of negotiation. The constitution of the 40th Republic was largely restored, and there was a general amnesty for those arrested by the 42nd Republic. Question 76 [HIS] Why did the 38th Republic establishing relations with the Tarkan Network cause the colonies to secede? (3 Sentences) Question 77 [HIS] What happened during the Tarkan Crisis? (1 Sentence) Question 78 [HIS] Why did they restore the 40th Republic's constitution instead of the 41st's? (1 Sentence) Question 79 [HIS] Why did the 43rd Republic grant a general amnesty? (4 Sentences) ---- Partial Timeline All Years ETR 1479 - Human colonists arrive on Plato's Cave and Morton's Fork ?? - Pentyches arrive ?? - V'tt end HT's rampage 1541 - 39th Republic Established Circa 1600 - Seneclex AI went dormant -- V'tt attack Pentyche colony -- UP given control of weapons 1628 - 40th Republic Established ?? - 41st Republic Established 1694 - 42nd Republic Established 1713 - 43rd Republic established Last edited by TGLS; 11-12-2019 at 09:08 AM. |

Re: [GAME] Assemble a Space Station!
So the 1479 arrival in PC & MF is meant to be before the Heaven's Tribes Invasion?
And I presume the Battle of Pascal Prime is the one against the V'tt? ETA: Updated timeline with TGLS's entries ETA2: Here's a timeline entry template Code:
[b]?? ya[/b] - [b][I]?? ETR[/I][/b] - <event> -- <other events in same year>

Re: [GAME] Assemble a Space Station!
Yes to the second. To the first, it could be, I was taking the fuzzy 400+ as possibly much larger than rough vicinity. I suppose the upper limit is probably a century before their defeat by the V'tt, as that's when they planned to check up on UP, given that didn't happen. I would estimate their defeat as mid to late 1500s, given the timing of the V'tt attack on Pascal's Wager.

Answer 75 [44th/STN] - Embassies to the 44th Due to the station's facilities and security, and due to the republic's neutral, isolationist stance, New Hong Kong has become a popular meeting centre for high level diplomatic talks, thus most embassies, apart from those of the 44th's two closest allies, are located here. Question 80 [44th] Who are the 44th's two closest allied nations? (d6: 4 sentences) Question 81 [AI] How did the human colonists convince Youpie to accept commands from them (or at least work with them), despite them not being Heaven's Tribes? (d6: 6 sentences)

About 62 years after activation, Youpie had made a startling realization; it had become bored and lonely. It responded to this by seeking companionship, first passively scanning for communication, then by directly contacting vessels. The Rousseau's Gambit was the first ship to dock with New Hong Kong (then Heaven's Station 4117) in generations. While the crew had misgivings about visiting a Heaven's Tribe station, a safe harbour was to good to pass up. Permanent settlers arrived about ten years later. Youpie continues to be determined to avoid the fate of the Precursor AI, gloom and gradual insanity. |

Re: [GAME] Assemble a Space Station!
Answer 74 Vol II [HIS]
2000 ya - 1 ETR/2102 AD - Terran Republic formed The First Terran Republic was founded in 2102 when the continental unions of UNASUR, the Euro-Eurasian Union and the Asia-Oceania Congress signed the Treaty of Confederation. This ended almost a century of unrest and destruction, but the details are of little importance two millennia later.

Re: [GAME] Assemble a Space Station!
Answer 75 Vol III [HIS]
Colonization of the Fringe 328 ya - 1673 ETR/3774 AD - Augustinian Settled, Century of Expansion begins Almost two centuries after the first Hab modules were erected on Morton's Fork, the peoples of the Republic were now prepared to venture forth into unoccupied space. Augustinian was the first of many new systems that were settled during the Century of Expansion. Question 82 [NAMES] What's the name of this region of space? (I'll roll one on request, but do names need more than a sentence?) Question 83 [HIS] Why did the century of expansion end? (War? Out of Planets? Petered out?) (1 Sentence) Question 84 [HIS] If the Republic settled so many systems, why do they only control three today? (Did many leave with the 43rd in Exile? Separated on their own accord? Is there a 41st Republic floating around?) (5 Sentences) |
