| It took just over a century of planning for the adherents of the former Imperial Dynasty to prepare the overthrow of the “new” regime. Aided immensely by many of the piecemeal policies coming out of Beijing, they were able to bring to fruition a counter stroke that limited the authority of the Politburo to the northeastern quadrant of the country. No sooner had they re-established the imperial rule but they then set about establishing dominion over the notional [[Asiatic Federation]]. Then the new Ti’en dynasty began to plan for colonization to relieve the pressure brought by a burgeoning population fed by the revocation of the “one home, one child” policy. | It took just over a century of planning for the adherents of the former Imperial Dynasty to prepare the overthrow of the “new” regime.

| - | The first colonies were on [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars|Mars]], followed by [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europa_%28moon%29|Europa]] and [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ganymede_%28moon%29|Ganymede]], but it was not long before even more space was needed. Ever ones to think long term, the mandarins of the reborn Middle Kingdom opened a star chart and simply blocked out a section of space far beyond the borders of human space. Colony ships were ordered constructed by the Asian Federation which departed immediately upon completion. | + | The first colonies were on [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars|Mars]], followed by [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europa_%28moon%29|Europa]] and [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ganymede_%28moon%29|Ganymede]], but it was not long before even more space was needed.

| The First Galactic War was a war of independence for the Middle Kingdom stellar nation. Their home nation had been absorbed into the Terran Empire and forcibly dismantled. Under the command of the First Daughter, Ti’en Bai, the Kingdom fought a brutal campaign against the Terran forces. Aided by a still burgeoning population that had long outgrown the “Mandarins’ Walls”, the fleets and armies wore down their opponents, including the nascent [[Thuldan Empire]]. After the war, border conflicts between the two expanding nations remained constant, and both sides laid plans for the war that was sure to come. | The First Galactic War was a war of independence for the Middle Kingdom stellar nation.

| The few remnants of this nation are either living on ravaged worlds in Hatire or [[galactic concord|Concord]] space or have found refuge in the city-stations of their one-time rival OGAM. The [[borealis_republic|Borealin]] prejudice against subjects of the Kingdom is ironic, given that the Republic probably survived only because of the losses the Empire sustained at the Twin Giant Reds battlefield. Not even the two colonies in the [[Far Reach]] survived the war. This only accentuates the mystery of the disappearance of Ti’en Hu, only granddaughter of the late Ti’en Bai… | The few remnants of this nation are either living on ravaged worlds in Hatire or [[galactic concord|Concord]] space or have found refuge in the city-stations of their one-time rival OGAM.
