Many thousands of years ago, a massive civilization entered the galaxy. This civilization was known as Kyremia. The Kyremians came to the galaxy en masse, bringing with them their technology and cultures. The Kyremians appeared to outsiders to be one unified force, but in fact, nearly the opposite was true. The Kyremians had long struggled with the administrative challenges inherent in so large a force, and soon, they would split apart. Their differences were just too great. One faction was convinced that expansionism was the only way to survive, so they devoted their time and energy into the construction of terrifying weaponry and shields. They split off from the main group first, and eventually met their downfall at the hands of the Republic of the Dragon, whose overwhelming size was their greatest weapon. After this crushing defeat, these Kyremians took to the warp stream in record numbers, in an event known as the Kyremian Diaspora. A second group of Kyremians focused on genetic purity, and wanted nothing to do with the Kyremian ideas of genetic adaptation for new environments. They left, and settled in the Teset system, where they were eventually discovered, befriended, and annexed by Miraculum. The third group to leave was known as the Nomocracy. The Nomocracy believed in form and order, and was disgusted by the fragmentation of Kyremian goals and ideals. The Nomocrats left Kyremia knowing that they would have to adapt to the galaxy they had come to, so they entered a warp stream to stretch time. During the time they spent in the warp stream, they evolved themselves into a race perfectly suited to space and time travel.


            Upon exiting the warpstream, the Nomocrats began looking for signs of where they were. They had exited the warpstream in a system with no near solar neighbors, and only two planets. One had a molten surface, but the gas giant had two moons, both covered in plant growth and organic life. The other planet, which they christened after the star it orbited, was nigh on uninhabitable. Beautiful and bountiful, Harvest was the first moon they settled. Before landing, the Kyremian people tested the atmosphere of Harvest to determine whether it was breathable. Discovering a rich oxygen and hydrogen atmosphere, they landed, and began building a new life for themselves. Armed with old Kyremian technology, in old Kyremian ships, the Nomocrats still felt too tied to Kyremia, so they began using their knowledge of warpstreams and advanced weaponry to construct a new fleet, and rechristened themselves after the star around which they now orbited. Rather than Kyremians, they dubbed themselves Virgones. With this new name and determination to remove themselves from Kyremia, they became the Nomocratic Federation.
