Florgese

The Florgese are a race from the moon Glum Florghen.

## Biology

Due to the sheer amount of hair they have, it is unknown what exactly a shaved Florgese looks like. All that is known is that they have white skin. The Florgese appear to be canines, however, this could be an illusion.

## Society

The Florgese are sentient but not very technologically advanced, using spears to hunt food. The Florgese speak Florgnar, a language of their creation which to human ears resembles nothing more than barking. Several factions vie for control of the population, those being the Florg Empire (the most powerful), the Republic of Glum Florghen (middle in terms of power), the Glum Florghen Unification Army (second-to-least in power) and the Saviors of Glum Florghen (least powerful).

## History

The first Florgese did not band together at all, instead remaining by themselves and minding their own business. However, some began to unionize, eventually forming the Glum Florghen Unification Army. The GFUA wanted to unite all of the Florgese under a single government, hence the "Unification" part. They lived in caves underneath the snow, recruiting passersby to their cause. As the GFUA grew in number, separatists emerged. They had the same goal as the GFUA, but they wanted their government to be dominant, not the GFUA.

These separatists eventually unionized, forming the Florg Empire. They built large forts out of ice, attracting significantly more to their cause than the GFUA was. Some from the GFUA even joined the Florg Empire. The Florg Empire grew in numbers, and decided to begin training a great army. To do this, they created spears out of rock and sharpened them to make them more effective. They then decided to figure out how to best use these weapons in case a war occurred. After a few months of training to find out how to use their weapons effectively, they developed a sort of martial art, known as Florgmihn. Using their knowledge and their numbers, the Florg Empire sent an army of 100 individuals to attack a GFUA encampment. They swiftly captured it, converting half of its inhabitants (amounting to 123) to the Florg Empire. They then trained more soldiers to attack more camps.

The Florg Empire's soldiers began conquering more and more GFUA camps and enlisting more and more members. The remaining members of the GFUA retreated to an underground safehouse they had built in case of emergency. Meanwhile, the Florg Empire continued to grow and spread. However, on the other side of the planet, a group of Florgese had established the Republic of Glum Florghen. The Republic had also seen great success in recruiting its members. They did not have an army, however, due to not thinking they needed one. The Florg Empire's rapid expansion soon proved them wrong, however, as several Florgese prophets of doom came to warn anyone who would listen. The Republic rapidly began building an army for self-defense, arming them with primitive rock weapons.

When the Florg Empire finally did arrive, the Republic's soldiers were untrained and could not get within range to attack the Florg Empire's soldiers. This led to many deaths on the part of the Republic, and the same prophets of doom that had warned the Republic decided they needed to band together to stop the madness, forming the Saviors of Glum Florghen, but this faction never really caught on and gained very few members. As the Republic attempted to train its soldiers, the Florg Empire continued repeatedly attacking them. The war between the Republic and Florg Empire continues to go on.
