TYSO

TYSO, a reincarnation of several alien factions that ruled a small portion of the Milky Way for a short time, is the faction that the entirety of the lore is named after.

## TYSO

### Taken down by

New Terpinetine

TYSO was the successor state to TYLO, a short-lived remnant of Vecnara. It originally was comprised of Vecnara loyalists who in conjunction with pirates and other groups against Terpinetine, attacked mining outposts and frigates around 2458 A.D. With colonies farther from the solar system wanting less harsh restrictions on industry from Terpinetine and better pay for shipments, many would leave Terpinetine for TYLO. This large separatist movement gained TYLO a lot of power through 2461 A.D.

Though in 2462 A.D., TYLO patrol ships would find the crashed remains of an old CB ship. Through further investigation, the frozen body of Tim Malor was recovered from the site. After some years of him being used a tactician by the TYLO council, he would stage a coup against the government in 2467 A.D., and put himself on top, promising a freer nation without the bureaucracy Terpinetine enforced. The name of this new nation under him being TYSO, Within years of Malor's reign, TYSO would sweep through Terpinetine's crippled army and take the majority of the outer colonies. A main reason for the victory they had gained was new Drone technology, allowing entire swarms of fighters, vastly cutting down pilot needs and allowing warships with much larger sizes to be operated.

By 2471 A.D., the last strongholds of Terpinetine within the solar system were being cleared out, with TYSO ruling the system and outer colonies. TYSO did make great strides in research though, with lightwarp drives advancing considerably, allowing for settling of farther and farther areas and the acceleration of travel within the solar system. And though TYSO had 'taken control' of the solar system, the majority of humanity was not compliant. Unrest was common the farther out from the solar system and entire areas of Terpinetine jurisdiction even existed.

### Wars of Resistance

Terpinetine fell in legality, but not in spirit, with cells of rebellion and freedom movements to bring back the government scattered everywhere. Though with TYSO's advanced weaponry and superior numbers, they would not ever stand a chance directly, with a majority of rebellions failing miserably. One of the main Rebel groups was the Coalition of Terpinetine (CT), who started as a few cells working together on the outer colonies, but soon grew to entire asteroid fields and planets, all united against a single cause. And along with rebels, TYSO was struggling to internal issues as well, with several revolts attempting to remove Tim Malor from power and another to reestablish the council. Some of the TYSO generals themselves would even lead revolts, attempting to secede from the Empire and make themself leader. The issues affecting TYSO would continue on for almost 200 years, with their power slowly dwindling until it shattered into several small factions during the Big Crunch, completing vanishing as a larger unified nation and only a group of nations with ties.

### City Ships

The Long journey to the New Universe brought many challenges as without means of travel between ships, as there was no way to keep the other ships under control of a leader, and many city ships became their own states, slowly forgetting any ties to TYSO as the centuries onboard the city ships grew on. Out of the hundreds of thousands of City Ships leaving from the TYSO empire, around only ten thousand survived the centuries-long journey with most of the ships either getting hit by an asteroid and being destroyed, exploding from a reactor failure, losing power and getting stranded, or falling from within as the conditions inside become chaos. However, it also provided benefits as Terpinetine sympathizers could finally restore the country, overthrowing TYSO rule and establishing New Terpinetine, the state that would one day take down TYSO once and for all.

## New Universe & Downfall

When the City Ship fleet finally reached the New Universe in 0 A.A., the ships all navigated to the closest nearby planet, all converging on different areas. Yet many generations had passed within and the purpose of the journey was largely forgotten by most of the inhabitants, save for some crews who had kept close record of the journey progress and had not stopped for all those centuries. Soon, many of the TYSO-aligned city states would unify in different areas, now named the New TYSO Alliance. This confederation of several states immediately began a war of conquest against the independent New Terpinetine, in the Seventeen Years War.

The war would continue on in the NTA's favor for the beginning of the war, until massive famines and a lack of improving infrastructure would send the Alliance in civil war in 9 A.A., with the more economic classes opting to join NT, and the militaristic cult that had formed in the City Ships wanting to continue their war until they had reclaimed their rightful lands they set out for and restored peace in their new home. The civil war would end in 12 A.A. with TYMO, the Economic Terpinetine sympathizers leaving the alliance and briefly getting into conflict with NT over a border disagreement before forming an alliance of their own to team up against the remains of the NTA. By 15 A.A., the NTA was on it's very last limbs with several other states seceding to join NT and TYMO dissolving to be fully incorporated into New Terpinetine.

In 17 A.A. NT intelligence would find the location of Tim Malors Headquarters within an old TYSO Bastion Ship. Jasson Cronn, the Admiral of the NT fleet would send in Hundreds of Terpinetine Cruisers to ambush the NTA headquarters which was strong but had been stripped of weaponry years ago for parts. The remaining NTA fleet would be lost in the Final Battle against Terpinetine, taking down a lot of their fleet yet still losing with a TYSO M-Class Attack Ship getting shot down and crashing into the Bastion Ship, knocking out its reactor and blowing it up, taking out all remaining NTA leadership including Tim Malor and scattering the last few NTA forces to the edges of the planet. From, there the last few NTA holdouts would be fought one by one until 20 A.A. where a treaty would finally be signed ending TYSO.
