Milky Way

The Milky Way also known as The Galaxy was one of the billions of galaxies that existed in the universe. Composed of some four hundred billion stars in a disk 100,000 light-years in diameter, the galaxy was orbited by seven smaller satellite galaxies, of which five were directly accessible by the time of the First Ghost War. The Milky Way was home to between five and twenty million sentient species, and over one hundred quadrillion sentient beings  lived in one billion star systems, interacting with each other through travel, diplomacy, trade, politics, and war. In historical memory, this galaxy had been ruled by the Aala'rak, the Ethron Supremacy, the Ghost Empire and the Lux Republic.
The Milky Way's disc is surrounded by a massive energy field of negative energy called the galactic barrier, which makes travel into and out of the galaxy difficult. 
The galaxy was theorised to have been created from a great explosion known as the Big Bang theory, and it was further theorised that its centre might still be creating new matter. 
In the science of stellar cartography, the Milky Way was divided into five major areas called regions: Bearia, Soliar, Coros, Dunoid, and Aeros, each of which composed one-fifth of the galaxy. Each region was divided into 10 sectors.
