== History ==
=== Beginnings ===
KuzFirm was founded in 1202 by jurist entrepreneur Kuzon VIII of the Kuz Clan. It began as large city banks on five highly-populated planets, proved successful, and began mass-expanding. By the time of his death in 1243, it was massively successful and worth billions, with shareholders on thousands of planets mostly within the Great Empire. His son, grandson, and great-grandson would be wealthy businessmen CEOs that carried the firm's legacy and continued to expand it to great heights.
The Great Civil War struck the company hard, pushing it to near-bankruptcy. Kuzon X first brought it into politics, as it declared support and funded the rebels. After his death, his grandson Karnai brought it out of the depression, making great strides in innovation and established KuzFirm as one of the most powerful in the universe. 
=== War of Unification ===
As of August 1503, CEO Marek Kuz announced KuzFirm's support for and funding of the Great Empire as part of the War of Unification, and doing so, influenced many empires/planets to do the same. The war was short-lasted and merely a cold war of threats and ideas; there was no violence.
