Intergalactic Space Empire of Earth

The Flag of ISEOE

The Intergalactic Space Empire of Earth is an Intergalactic Superpower with most of its influence over the Milkyway Galaxy. One of only three known Intergalactic superpowers, the others being the Andromedan Galactic Commonwealth and the First Sporeian Empire. Formed from the earlier United Nations, Earth's countries united under one banner officially in 2112 with financial aid from the Cultaris Aliens. Eventually, in 2346, a rocket blew up which was assumed to be a staged event to attack the Cultaris, and with their military and economic prosperity, the humans won the war, annexing all lands of the Cultaris and setting their empire as one of the most powerful in the galaxy.

## Information

### Current Statistics

Now the empire has a population of 58,750,000,000,000 with around only 2% living on Earth, phenomenal numbers for such a large empire, empires usually suffer from overpopulation in their home system because of a lack of want to move to other areas of the empire. The government of the ISEOE is also one of the best in the galaxies, having a 93% confidence rating amongst all people of the empire, with only 2% voting no confidence and the rest being neutral. The empire's home planets with civilisations are kept clean of trash and rubbish via designated trash planets, which are planets close to the sun where trash is deposited and left to incinerate. Because of this, the cleanliness rate of the average citizen is 99% and the atmosphere of terra-formed worlds is 98.5%. The technological leap is also major in terms of empires, the Intergalactic Empire of Earth being the most advanced power in the known universe. The Empire ranks number one in military power, number one in the economy, and is the third-highest empire in population. It is also one of the biggest empires to have ever existed, only being beaten by possible undiscovered empires, which we do not count, and The Great Cosmos Empire was founded millions of years ago during humanity's primitive years.

### Holdings

The empire holds 92% of the Milkyway Galaxy and 23% of the Andromeda Galaxy. As well as this the empire owns many of the dwarf galaxies around the two giant galaxies and has a couple of outposts in the Trianglum Galaxy. This totals millions of star systems for the population, although most are used for nature reserves, weapon test sites, military outposts, factory hubs , or other designations used by the empire. The whole population has access to a watch that monitors their vital signs and can transport them to certain areas when programmed to do so. For areas where it will not teleport them, they can take the advanced transportation systems which can travel the whole of the Earth in under 2 seconds.

### Currency

Humanities currency is called the Qirsh (Ker-sh). This is the Cultaris word for victory. The currency used to be called the United Federation Currency, or UFC, during the rebuilding stage of humanity. This was changed to show gratitude to the Cultaris Empire when they found out how to understand them. However, after the war against the Cultaris, many debates were fueled on what to do with the name. However, humanity kept it and the reason was to show that anyone backstabbing the empire would be met with fire and blood, the Intergalactic Space Empire of Earth would forever be victorious and never be forgotten.

### Military

The ISEOE are the most dominant military power with enough troops to occupy every planet and moon in the Milkyway Galaxy. The Sol Brigade alone has a trillion soldiers, 10,000 warships, 45 million battle-mechs, 5 million ultrasonic jets and 25 million of the most modern tanks. Every 1st June a military parade is held, Military Pride Day where marches are held across the whole empire.

## History

### Destructive Beginnings

The history of humanity is a sad one, a story of bloodshed and casualties. Humanity had an event back in 2024 which spanned to 2030, an all-out war, their third major world conflict dubbed World War III in the end, humanity was devastated, advances in technology may have aided richer nations but when the nuclear fall-out happened, the poorer nations suffered the most. After the war, a new United Nations was formed to build upon the ashes left. Humanity was left to fend for itself, the world was practically uninhabitable. The death toll will never be forgotten, with around four billion dead of humanity's eight billion population. To celebrate the end of World War III, humanity has a national holiday on the 11th of September called Remembrance Day also acting as a holiday to remember all wars across the world from modern times back to thousands of years ago, with the main emphasis being on the world wars. Thanks to books we at least know the events of World War II and World War I, and the work of Uljas Laaksonen, a Finnish writer who went on a comprehensive look through archives and published his book "The Undisputed Rise of Humanity" in 3240 which detailed all events of the empire from 2024 - 3240. This is major as his book was the first to have a many-page focus on WWIII.

### A Hope on the Horizon

However, hope would be on the human side, a neighbouring race known as the Cultaris Aliens would arrive. The Cultaris were an advanced but small empire that wanted peace and order to be normal in the galaxy. Using their technological advances, humanity was revitalised. Eventually using Cultaris technology, humanity would be one of the most advanced nations already but were generous and only claimed the Sol System for now. They took over much after that but we can not delve into all their holdings. The countries were united under a new United Nations, and they would help each other. They were still run by their local governments. However, in 2331, the government went through, enforcing the Unity Act which would see all countries unite under a single unified government.

### The Cultaris-Human War (2346 - 2352)

Eventually, in 2346 the most defining act of humanity happened. The Cultaris Aliens destroyed a human rocket, whether staged or not remains a mystery, and humanity started its first major war since 2024. Humanity got the best of its old ally in a war that occurred until the year 2352. As the war was over, all Cultaris technology was forcefully taken by humanity, their star systems were annexed and humanity started its expansionist policy.

### The Grayalt-Human War (2456 - 2470)

By 2400 humanity had already claimed thousands more star systems for their use, still focusing mainly on population centres in the Sol System and discussing ways to handle the hardships of space such as Gas Giants. Halfway through the 2400s, humanity came into contact with the Grayalt Empire, a separate race of aliens who wanted to expand, and humanity was directly in their way. The Grayalt spilt first blood in 2456 when they attacked the ISEOE military stronghold of Phantoms Hold and committed genocide on surrendered soldiers there. The most notable event of the war was in 2468, 12 years into the war and the Grayalt Empire was getting desperate for victory. They decided an attack on the home planet Earth would be their best bet. The lone Grayalt star cruiser 'Byregan' which is Grayaltan for bloodshed would arrive through a portal. The Grayalt aliens had a technology humanity did not, an advanced cloaking mechanism allowing their ships to be invisible, the heat inside could also be changed as the only heated areas were small pockets in the hull, therefore heat trackers didn't catch the shape. The only ones that caught it were radar but they assumed it was a simple star cruiser returning to Mars. Moncester, the capital of Mars, was brutally attacked by missiles and guns, the Grayalt aliens mistaking the red rocky planet for Earth. 278,400 Martians were killed before the ISEOE Star Cruiser ISN Endeavour dealt the final blow to the Byregan.

Public opinion turned from the tiredness of war to wanting to enlist, and International opinion also changed. Humanity found itself being backed up by empires and small civilizations around the Milkyway. Eventually in 2470 the war ended, humanity annexing 278 star systems, likely a jab at the death toll, and turning their home star into an intergalactic trading zone. The Grayaltans were deported to other empires where they were likely treated far worse than they would be under the humans. Anyone who refused was shot, ISEOE answered massacre with another massacre but could hide their crimes way easier than the Grayalts ever could. The Grayalts were deemed extinct in 2753.

### Giaga-Human War (3026 - 3030)

When 3026 occurred, a passenger spaceship called the IPS Comet crashed unexpectedly in the home system of the Giaga Empire. These aliens were relatively reptilian with technology similar to that of the humans with a couple of major flaws the ISEOEs didn't have. Smaller companies wanted to find this missing spaceship for profit and publicity and so searched, disrupting local Giaga Alien life. This added to humanity suggesting the Giaga aliens had something to do with it, leading to a four-year guerilla war. The Giaga Aliens after the Battle of East Dauhy learnt not to face humanity head-on, as the moment the forces collided, they suffered heavy losses. Using their terrain to their advantage the Giaga aliens defended very well, most of their planets having rocky or forest-like terrain humanity struggled to work in. Eventually, in 3030 the leaders of both empires met and discussed a peace treaty. The Comet had also been found by this time and it was proven that the Giaga government had nothing to do with it. Humanity was not crash, only requesting four star systems they had successfully conquered and some war reparations from both sides. The first time Humanity had been beaten. However, what humanity wasn't ready for, was going to happen in just six months.

### The Heytan-Human War (3031 - 3033)

In 3031, humanity's third bloodiest war would occur. The Heytan Empire was an empire holding the Heyta Aliens, an alien group that had many of the same advances Humanity had. Their home system was located on the edges of the Milkyway, they had originally been a kingdom located in the Ciermsium Imperium that gained its independence upon the empire falling. However, the Heytan Race would have constant civil wars which hindered their progression into an empire. In 2135, they founded the empire and they claimed many star systems. Known as a very imperialistic empire, the Heytans were disliked by many, including the Grafeki Empire, The Garmillas Empire and many more.

First blood would be drawn when the Heytans attacked the ISEOE's military outpost Stone Pass Barrier, which acted as a sort of gateway between their colonies in Andromeda and the Milkyway, for people to go through. Because of this, it had a relatively large population of people waiting for the movement to the habitation centres in the Milkyway or just going for vacations. The Heytan Space Navy struck Stone Pass Barrier with all of its might and successfully took it over. However, as they were getting a grip on the outpost, just seven hours later, humanity had formed a response. Super Star Destroyers ISN Valiant and ISN Warspite with their strike forces arrived, and humanity took back the outpost in just an hour. War was declared and humanity was in for a new bloody war. Eventually, after they had caught the Heytan outpost of "Hyeardn" which had its name changed to High-Ridge Bastille they struck the main planet for Heyta in 3033, nicknamed 'Heyta' very creatively. All of Heyta's lands were annexed and in total the casualties came in at two billion humans and three billion Heytans in just a two-year war.

### The Milkyway Defence League

Humanity saw that constant wars were not going well and that they needed to try to stop chaos going on in the Milkyway. ISEOE, the Garmillas and around twelve other nations in the Milkyway formed the Milkyway Defence League, where empires and civilisations alike could choose ambassadors to represent them and their interests. The league promised defensive solidarity, everyone defending the other if attacked. However, what differed from other pacts going around or a straight-up military alliance was how nations could support one another. They didn't have to send forces to help the other nations if they didn't want to risk war exhaustion or rebellions. All they had to do was send resources to the nation in question. However, if a nation in the league attacked another league nation, the attacker must be kicked from the league and isolated politically.

### The Grafeki-Turgcak War (3100 - 3101)

Eventually, a minor war would happen between two non-league empires of only around twenty-four star systems, the Grafeki Empire and the Turagcak Empire. However, what bright humanity it was when the cargo spaceship ICV Salmon was destroyed by Turagcak alien missiles in a freak accident. The sleeping titan had now woken up, and the war was declared. Hardly a war, the moment troops and spaceships arrived it was over. Humanity of course had to get something out of it and annexed 50% of their star systems.

### The Great Sporeian War (3146 - 3225)

However, the bloodiest war humanity would face would happen in the year 3146 and lasted 79 long brutal years. The Grox Empire felt threatened by Humanity's presence in the Sporeian Galaxy and attacked. The Fourth Sporeian War is so expansive it would require its databank to explain. The relevant information, however, is that over 57,000,000,000 humans perished, and a new empire was formed in 3225, the First Sporeian Empire.
