TOAAC

TOAAC was a civilization that regained control over some empires during its time. It thrived as a civilization and had a massive amount of power. It was rich in resources and incredibly advanced in technology. They were able to communicate with civilizations all over the galaxy and trade resources with other civilizations on other planets. The civilization of TOAAC was so strong that it formed an alliance called “The Syndicate Alliance'' and went to war against the HSB, an accomplishment in an of itself even though they were defeated.

At the end of the war, the HSB chairmen took a vote on what to do with the rebels, and they decided to not destroy the rebels' planets. However, a group called Externum Redemptoris betrayed everyone and destroyed all human civilizations and proceed to sacrifice themselves to become 4-dimensional gods. TOAAC was a mighty civilization that lasted 3 weeks until it was brought to an end by the death lazer along with 16 other civilizations.

Although the civilization was really successful during its uprising, there were some major setbacks like the nuclear meltdown that took place on May 12th, 2022. Although there weren’t many casualties, the surrounding area was highly contaminated. Measures were taken to minimize the damage.

On May 29th, 2022, the people of TOAAC started to fight against their government, and the government was harsh with its punishment for the people who chose to rebel. The civilization of TOAAC was located in the solar system of Trappist. The solar system of Trappist is home to another habitable planet, and the people who decided that they were unhappy with their government were sent to this planet (Trappist 1-F) to create their own government and civilization the way they would like.

The nation of TOAAC had 3 nation-states, Cesarstan, New Australia, and TOBA.

## Cosmography & Geography

Cosmography is the study of locations in the universe, the universal equivalent of geography. In order to further understand the distances between their civilization and others, TOAAC created two maps at different scales. These maps were used for calculating the distances and technological requirements for travel and communications. The maps were drawn at varying scales including a map of the area they landed in on Trappist 1e, a map of the Trappist 1 solar system.

### Landing Zone

This map is drawn at a scale of 1in:100miles. Its goal was likely to help TOAAC visualize the immediate area around their colony for planning the utilization of natural resources and expansion. This map would have helped the leaders to advance technology and keep the population alive. This map includes TOAAC’s landing site/main city, the terrain around it, and the locations the native species inhabit.

### Solar system

This map of the solar system of Trappist 1 was likely used by TOAAC for planning interactions between them and civilizations on other planets near them. This map almost certainly played a role in the decision to establish New Australia on Trappist 1f. This map shows the planets and distances at different scales. A scale of 1inch:5au for distances, and a scale of 1inch:100radius of the earth scale for planets size. This was likely to allow for the viewing of planets' sizes as and distances on the same map without it being absurdly large. The orbits and objects are idealized into perfect 2D circles. This is likely due to the person making this map not fully understanding the orbital mechanics of the Trappist 1 system.

## Government

**TOAAC** was founded with the goal of making rational decisions at all times. In order to accomplish this TOAAC combined the best parts of several governmental structures. This branched government employed a combination of technocracy, sortition, and at times, autocracy. These branches operated separately with separate goals. For the technocrats, the goal was to make the most rational choices. However, always making the most logical decisions can lead to social unrest as the most logical thing to do is not always what the people want. As such the sortition branch was created, this branch took people at random from the population and trained them to know how to govern rationally. This allowed the people to have a voice while still maintaining a ration base. Governing in any way that involves voting is bound to at times end in gridlock, which is the worst thing possible in a time-pressing emergency. To account for this a final branch existed in TOAAC, the autocrat. In times of extreme duress, the technocrats could vote for an autocrat to make swift decisions to resolve time sensitive issues.

### Technocracy

The technocrat chamber was the original governing group of TOAAC, they were the six leaders who came to Trappist 1-E on the original refugee ship. These leaders were knowledgeable about many subjects and had unlimited access to the GWW, also known as the internet. Due to their knowledge, they were chosen to lead. When the constitution was written and ratified it was by these 6 leaders. The constitution initiated eight departments, each in charge of a different essential aspect of a successful civilization: commerce, military, economy, labor, growth, safety, media, and arguably most important, principals. Each of the six leaders was put in charge of at least two of these departments. When a decision had to be made it would be made by the technocrats in charge of the department to which the decision related to the most.

### Sortition

The technocrats likely faced the issue of the people's voice that many governments before them had also faced. If you don't give the people a say and you have an uprising, if you give them too much of a say and all your legislation will be illogical. In order to keep to the core principle of rational decisions and while including the voice of the people TOAAC created a second branch of government, the sortitionists. These sortitionists were people chosen at random from the general population, after they accepted the offer of joining the government they were trained for at least six months by experts on the state of civilization and the galaxy. They would then be put in power within the sortition branch of the government. Every two years this process would repeat.

### Autocracy

TOAACs leaders saw the obvious flaw in the voting system, it is slow and can get gridlocked. Gridlock and slow decisions are horrible in time-pressing emergencies. To combat this the technocrats added a third, sometimes active branch to the government, the autocratical branch. In times of extreme emergency, the technocrats could vote on whether to elect an autocrat and again on who that should be. This autocrat would have had almost all-encompassing power, the only thing they would not be able to change would be the governmental structure of TOAAC. In the history of TOAAC, the autocratic branch was only activated once, in response to a major wrench. This autocrat gave up their power and returned to being a technocrat immediately after the wrench was resolved.

## Artifacts

### Language

The people of TOAAC spoke English but had a different alphabet. Some letters in the alphabet of TOAAC are the same or look as if it is something close to some letters in the generic English alphabet but some have sounds that you could only get by combining letters for example the pronunciation of ch, sh, and ai, are just one letter. The alphabet of TOAAC has no lowercase letters to make the alphabet faster to write.

### Calendar

The Trappist 1-E calendar has 61 days in it. Trappist 1-E's orbital period is 6.1 Earth days, but the designers decided that six days was too short for a year, so they extended it to 61 days. This means that for Trappist 1-E, a single year is actually ten years. Another way to think about it is that one Earth year equals 60 Trappist 1-E years. It is important to know that the concept of a day does not exist in Trappist 1-E due to the fact that it is tidally locked, thus the planet cannot rotate to create what we call a day. This means that what we refer to as a day is an Earth day.

### Flag

The flag of TOAAC contains three main distinguishing elements. These elements are Cesars face, a star, and three triangles at the bottom. TOAAC stands for The One Above All Cesar, this is develops from the fact that the governing technocrats knew of Cesars suspected omnipotence. As a tribute they named their civilization after him and put his face on the flag. The star is said to represent the way that humanity was now among the stars. The triangles at the bottom of the flag are assumes to be there because the triangle is the strongest shape; just as their civilization aimed to be the strongest in the galaxy. The green likely symbolized growth and safety and the blue; intelligence.

## Alliances

### Syndicate Alliance

The Syndicate alliance is a joint coalition between the nation of Mabu and Vita Genuit in Statera for the purpose of initiating powerful trade partnerships and establishing intergalactic order.

In terms of what the Syndicate alliance accomplished, we accomplished a lot and went to the war with the HSB and had the resources necessary. It was also a risk for us to go to this war because we were risking the consequences of losing and something bad happening to us and we did well but sadly in the end we lost the war.

The purpose of the syndicate alliance was made to bring all of the strongest groups into an alliance so we could be the strongest and most powerful group in the galaxy. Then in the end when we went to the war with the HSB it was not originally the plan but we were feeling like we could win with all the strongest groups in one alliance. In terms of the timeline of the syndicate alliance it was founded May 11th 2022, and it will never end.

### Infernal alliance

The Infernal Alliance is a joint coalition between TOAAC and Externum Redemptoris for the purpose of initiating power against all who would oppose them, and to remain peaceful to themselves. The Alliance was a basic alliance with things like no betrayal, you can’t give information to groups outside of the infernal alliance, etc. Later this alliance was broken and the Externum Redemptoris unleashed a secret weapon and blew up 17 human inhabited planets including TOAAC and with three other civilizations sacrificed themselves to become immortal 4th dimensional gods.

### Nation-State Alliances

The nation-state alliances were a series of alliances created between TOAAC and various other civilisations. The nation-state alliances were created with the purpose of having puppet civilizations to use in any wars declared by TOAAC. These states included New Australia, Cesarstan, and Myceleites. These alliances were worded in a misleading way to encourage signatures despite the large amount of control the signers would be handing to TOAAC. These alliances were never utilized to their full potential as the HSB voided the treaties as soon as the HSB war started.

#### New Australia

New Australia was the first addition to the nation-state alliance. New Australia was not originally intended to be used for war assistance, its goal was to deal with overpopulation. TOAAC couldn't kill citizens when they faced overpopulation as it went against their principles. However, if the population grew constantly TOAAC would run out of resources much quicker. In order to remove excess people from the population without violating their principles, TOAAC created New Australia on Trappist 1F. In addition to sending their own people to New Australia TOAAC also sent any and all refugees they received.

Following the creation of New Australia TOAAC struck a deal with the HSB for extra resources in exchange for taking on extra refugees from a failed colony. Due to this influx of people from TOAAC excess and HSB refugees, at its highest, before people started dying from starvation, suffocation, and dehydration, New Australia had 52,000 citizens. A tremendous and unsustainable amount compared to TOAACs 1,000 at the time.

The governor of New Australia was Jack, he wanted to leave his civilization due to rumors of his impeding exile. As an apparent act of good faith, TOAAC offered him his own planet, with the requirement of his signature on a treaty. This treaty was worded to sound mutually beneficial, however, it only benefited TOAAC. This led to people reading TOAACs treaties much more closely, and TOAAC had to turn to threats of war to gain further nation-states.

#### Cesarstan

Cesarstan, formerly known as Whitneystan was the second nation-state TOAAC acquired. Prior to this treaty Cesarstan was in economic turmoil and was having issues with their leadership being unattended. Due to people's increased scrutiny of TOAAC treaties, TOAAC had to go to war with them to get them to sign. The war was never fought as simply the threat of war was enough to get them to agree to a treaty. In order to not be tricked as New Australia had been Cesarstan summoned an HSB rep to negotiate for them, leading to a less favorable agreement in terms of gained resources for TOAAC, but still adding Cesarstan to TOAACs nation-state collection.

#### Myceleites

Myceleites was TOAACs final nation state. TOAAC went to war with Myceleites due to rumors that they were running low on resources. TOAAC and Myceleites agreed on the same terms of New Australia, plus a one-time percentage of their resources. Initial treaty drafts appeared to require Myceleites to change their name to TOBA. This term was likely removed in negotiations as it is not seen on the final document. Myceleites tricked TOAAC, saying they didn't have access to their resources as their treasurer was not on the planet, and that they would pay later. However, Myeleites ended up trading all their resources prior to paying, and due to the percentage rather then set amount they did not end up paying anything.

## Technology

### Water Collection

The government of TOAACs plan for tier 4 water was some sort of purification lab under the water that's very big and the plan was that it takes water from the ocean / body of water and it cleans and it could be helpful as well because we would build the lab to also produce energy. Another way to make water is to gather hydrogen from stars then create oxygen and mix them together to create water which can all be done in this lab. They also made oxygen using carbon dioxide. The reaction in which two atoms of hydrogen combine together, or fuse, to form an atom of helium. This is helpful for the civilization because it is even bigger and more advanced than a solar still and a dam so it would be even more helpful for not only cleaning and making the water more safe to drink but to produce even more water at a time.

### Food Collection

The civilization of TOAAC was surprisingly good with food. They found a way to mass-produce something that tasted edible while being extremely healthy with protein and everything the human body needs. Not only did they have extremely healthy food but they also had crystal cows that could be harvested for meat.

### Oxygen Collection

When the government of TOAAC settled on Trappist-1E they started construction on greenhouses to grow plants that generate oxygen, creating basically an oxygen generator. How they grew plants was they brought seeds on their way to Trappist-1E, with earthworms and a special fungi called saprophytic fungi. These two creatures did the same thing that is turning dirt and compost into extremely rich soil. How we would get all of the compost was through the citizens of TOAAC. There will be compost bins across all of the cities so people can throw away their compost and trucks come and get the bins and bring them to the greenhouse for planting.

### Common Material Collection

TOAACs plan for asteroid mining is to have a drill for mining asteroids then once it mines enough asteroids a hired worker would bring the load of asteroids back down to Trappist 1-E or wherever it is needed. They had transportation ships to get resources from planet to planet and the big drill for the mining part. It was helpful for their civilization because they needed the materials and metals from the asteroids and it was also way more time efficient and it could also get the job done faster.

### Rare Material Collection

The government of TOAAC gathered silica from Trappists 1E’s crust. They also gathered it by using large combines that slice up the ground and crush the rocks. The sand(crushed rock) was then loaded into a conveyor belt system to be transported to the purification plant where the sand is purified into pure silicon dioxide.

At the purification plant, they would remove contaminants from the SiO2(silia sand).  And also remove the contaminants by aggressively washing the sand repeatedly. Next, they would dry the sand and use sulfuric acid(H2SO4) to turn molecules containing metals into a water-soluble state then wash again to remove them.

Next they would turn the SiO2 into pure silicon for computer production. They would do so by heating the silicon dioxide with carbon in an arc furnace to create silicon and carbon dioxide. When this process is finished they would cast the silicon into ingots and send them to a chip building clean room. This process will release a greenhouse gas(CO2) into the atmosphere, helping terraform the planet by heating it up.

This process now made them have ingots of pure silicon so they can begin the process of creating chips. To create chips they would first slice the ingot into thin wafers. Next they used a layer of material that blocks light on top of the silicon and shine UV light on it. This process is what makes the shapes of the transistors. Next they would wash away the photoresist, leaving them with a silicon circuit that only conducts. To finish the chip they would dope the transistors to complete the chip.

### Energy Collection

TOAACs plan for energy collection was to use a dyson swarm that is around the sun that can collect energy from it that they can use to power Trappist-1E and the different machinery they have. The dyson swarm ranges from around 0.74 - 2.77% of the Sun's 3.85\times10^{26} W output. This type of invention will cease to function without an energy input, and relies on electricity. The third type of invention is one which collects, rather than expends, energy. This is mostly limited to solar panels and batteries. They used this because it is very efficient for getting energy and the sun produces a lot of energy so it would work well and be a smart way to collect the resources that they would need. There were also some negative impacts of Dyson Swarms. For example, one would shade the Sun, which would make growing crops in bulk nearly impossible.

## Creatures

### Saxum primordius

The Saxum Primordius was a humanoid creature made of rocks. The creatures were strong and hard to defeat, ideal for fighting in wars.

In terms of artifacts for the Saxum Primordius carried around tools that are used for multiple things. While researching the creature it carries around a tool in its hand so we wanted to find that and use it as an artifact. Something else we found in terms of artifacts was a rocket launcher as a working artifact and showing their form of space travel between planets. Finally we found a replica / statue that is of the creatures leader King Dwaynian.

For the habitat of the Saxum Primordius they lived on an island surrounded by water and the theme of the planet is a forest / rock theme where there are trees for the rock monster to find resources and the rock cave where the rock monster actually lives.

This species is sadly extinct due to the explosion of Trappist-1E.

### Mechaniker

The Mechaniker were an alien species that preferred giving themselves artificial enhancements to their body. They loved technology and advancing in it. They understood that some organic parts were necessary so they kept things like the brain, the one thing they didn’t dislike as they are very intelligent. In the rubble of the Trappist-1E explosion, there were some remnants of weapons and war equipment. One of the two things we have found is something that looks similar to a gun they used for war. It shows their excellent craftsmanship in all things mechanical. Another thing we found was a helmet they gave to official forces of their strong military. The Mechaniker are one of the only creatures that were native to Trappist-1E that actually live in cities and buildings and their housing was surprisingly high tech. This species is sadly extinct due to the explosion of Trappist-1E.

### Purple Cap Mushroom

The Purple Cap Mushroom is a fungus-like creature that was native to Trappist-1E. They had the appearance of a purple mushroom with white spots resembling a purple version of the Fly Agaric (a mushroom found on Earth). Though the mushroom is edible, do not eat it, as eating this mushroom will result in your body being taken control of by the mushroom, and creating what appears to be a mushroom human. When the Purple Cap Mushroom becomes their humanoid form, most create villages with others and live amongst themselves but some live alone. They lived in standard wooden houses with no technology whatsoever. This species was sadly extinct due to the explosion of Trappist-1E.

### Crystal Cows

The Crystal Cows were a special creature on Trappist-1E that bears an incredible resemblance to the normal cows on earth, even creating their own product of milk. This name was given by the first human who saw it. There was a traveler in the northwest island of TOAAC that stumbled upon these creatures and upon seeing their appearance wondered if they were a cow and inspecting them further he saw the marking on its forehead which looks like the symbol commonly referred to as a diamond made him think of a crystal. The milk commonly referred to as crystal milk had healing properties because of  a chemical compound known as thymoquinone that was used in essential oils on earth. This species is sadly extinct due to the explosion of Trappist-1E
