The Nexus

**The Nexus** is a megacorporation in the Thita Sector of the Estrotte Galaxy in Aesira. The Nexus consists of thousands of stations and megastructures. This megacorporation is considered a civilization because they have citizens and a government. The capital of The Nexus is **Nexus Primaris**, a shell world with an artificially created star in its center.

The Nexus is considered one of the most technologically advanced civilizations in the Estrotte Galaxy. The Nexus itself is devoted to intergalactic trade, catering to most commodities.

The Nexus formed the Protected Planets Treaty, allowing civilizations to develop without interference.

## History

### Prelude

The Nexus began as many smaller civilizations, pooling resources and manpower to progress as fast and efficiently as possible, joining into a coalition to forge a lasting empire. This endeavour was known as Project Guardian. Each civilization had its own technology, species, and culture. They originally were known as the **Guardians** among other civilizations at the time.

### Organization

The last civilization to join the coalition were the Aachens, they joined in 501 BGC. From then on, the Nexus was set on developing the necessary technology, collecting resources, and manufacturing ships and shipyards, to expand to the point that the ideal of the Nexus could be fulfilled. Soon enough, they were ready to construct a Nexus station that could be used for thousands of years to come. They began constructing the station in 78 BGC.

### Formation

The Nexus was formed in the year 0. The galactic calendar is organized based on the opening of the first Nexus station, Statio Primis in GD-12. Construction of the station took 73 years, and 5 years to get it operational. Once completed, all communications possible at the time were used to contact potential visitors, subspace data bursts including its location and Stargate address were sent first, with analog signals sent afterwards. The galactic calendar started after all signals were successfully sent.

Most of the civilizations that took part in the construction of the Nexus were absorbed into it, however a few maintained individualization while remaining allied.

### Nexus Stations

The first Nexus Station (Statio Primis) was opened in the year 0. Statio Secundi started construction in 9 GC.

### Galympics

The Nexus started the Galympics in 2050 GC.

### World Shaping

The Nexus performs major terraforming to various planets to ensure habitability and comfort.
