Below follows a simplified history of known spacefaring species.

710: Alba is abandoned, the colony ships that escape form the two fleets that depart Alba in opposite directions.

710-1602: The Foremarch, a semi-legendary period of O-Kimmigani history. Several worlds are partially settled in the course of this long sublight journey, but all were ultimately deemed unfit for a majority of the species to permanently inhabit for various reasons. Some modern species of Kimmigan originate from the crude genetic manipulation performed to acclimatize the settlers during this period.

1026: The roving O-Kimmigan fleet encounters the [[Civago]] homeworld of Civa, marking the first incident of first contact between two sophont species in galactic history. They depart on friendly terms with several new ships and Civago to crew them.

1604: The O-Kimmigani encounter a paradisiacal garden-world requiring no genetic-level acclimatization and declare it New Alba. The fleet is dismantled and the new homeworld settled.

1507: Civa is unified under the Council of Nine.

1605-1643: Rapid technological advancements are made by the O-Kimmigani as the result of the abundance of resources allow them to commit experiments long dreamed of during the Foremarch. Underspace travel and QEC (quantum entanglement communications) are two key inventions of this era.

1644: The central government of New Alba declares itself the [[Alganna Eternity]] with the mission of becoming a star-spanning empire, for the survival of not simply the Kimmigan species but civilization itself.

1692: Civa is reached by the Eternity. There is a minutes-long skirmish in orbit, but the Civago world-government quickly sees the merits of joining those they had been friendly to in the past. The Council of Nine is integrated into the Eternity as a Great House.

1750: TODO marsupials go here

1805: Fen's Council of Clans is established, marking the formation of unified Ruzkahni government.

1825: The Eternity discovers the [[Zylaari]] homeworld of Dhaarakt. The Zylaari are slowly lifted out of their bronze age and join the Eternity, but not as a Great House due to their lack of a unified planetary leadership to represent them. Zylaari are distributed across the Great Houses gradually over the next several decades.

1901: Directorate expedition to Ora and Jesoba.

1947: A long-dead and outdated Eternity scout ship drifts into Earth's orbit and crashes near Roswell, New Mexico. Although the technology aboard is obsolete by Eternity standards, and heavily damaged during atmospheric entry and the subequent crash, this revolutionizes human technological development over the next century.

1985: Directorate expedition settles Ora and Jesoba. The Jesobans are unintentionally infected by the deadly Porthovirus, but quick action on the part of Jesoban and Directorate scientists prevent it from becoming a true pandemic. This event is today viewed as a triumph of interspecies cooperation and scientific advancement.

2054: Directorate Encounters human colony in Proxima Centauri.
