Interstellar Age
It is the year 2500, and humanity has expanded its reach beyond the confines of Earth. In a distant sector of the galaxy, a young man named Erich "Silber" Jaeger is born into a dystopian empire that tightly controls the lives of its citizens. Growing up in a society rife with discrimination, Erich faces an uncertain future as he approaches military conscription. He will spend the next two decades of his life serving in the Armed Forces of the Germanic Star-Empire, fighting against the many enemies of the authoritarian state. As he navigates the treacherous landscape of interstellar warfare, Erich must grapple with his own ambitions and loyalties. Will he rise through the ranks to become the next dictator of the empire, or will he meet a gruesome end on the battlefield? Join Erich on his journey through the Interstellar Age, as he confronts the challenges of war, politics, and personal identity in a universe filled with danger and intrigue.
Maintaining Strength
While Erich and Tia capitalized off of the galactic economic crisis which they had both caused together. Lunaria was facing her own difficulties. The only interstellar civilizations who were immune to this sudden economic depression were those who ran self-sufficient economies with little to no ties to the galactic community as a whole.
But as a major Galactic power, how could Lunaria not be affected by this sudden disaster? She found herself in a crisis. For more years than she could remember, the balance of power in the galaxy had been maintained with strict treaties.
The major galactic powers all limited themselves on what weapons they could have, and how many of each they were able to field. This careful avoidance of a major arms race had prevented large scale galactic wars from occurring. But with this unprecedented economic crisis, she and her rivals were now forced to scale back their militaries.
