[b]History[/b] Like the further advanced races of the Local Group (that being Draconians and Zoradeus), the Kaiyou of the Triangulum Galaxy started to reach to the outer reaches of their world at the time when humans were spending time on how to count with sticks, stones and bones. However, magical energies were their main factors in the expansive growth of the Domaenus Makudan, unlike electrical currents, so the Makudan could have outran Draconian and Zoradean technology, weren't it for the scraps of futuristic technology that were left on their worlds that brought them to rise to power, which the Kaiyou didn't have the advantage of. The Empire began hungering to dominate the entire Triangulum, following a massive alien invasion, when the Kaiyou successfully stood against an army of hundreds of thousands of ships, with only 90,000 forces in their arsenal. They took over the leftovers of the hostile ships, assimilated to use magic, and turned the odds of the battle. With this, the Kaiyouan civilization felt an increasing hunger for territories, transitioning from a lone race desiring isolation to a battle-hungry empire, expanding gradually with frequent wars against equally advanced races keeping the rate of territorial increase in check. The Makudan's sphere of influence spread across the galaxy, bringing awareness to the smaller spacefaring civilizations and uniting them to stand against the ever-increasing nation, which ended up as a useless effort that managed to get the Makudan to finish off the rest of the Triangulum. However, the people began to fear the possibility of a race with multiple allies technologically on par with the Makudan, after a theory proposed by one of the past members of the Aeternal Council regarding such empires. Thus then, they have proposed the contact protocol of ignoring suspected races until acknowledgement, which was later approved. The time came when a civilization under the name of the Zoradeus trespassed into the Makudan. The foolish invaders were careless of their technology; their dark matter weaponry was stolen and analyzed right away. Although the energy couldn't still be used for magical purposes, it still proved to be a helpful tool in the takeover of the aliens. The Zoradeus rapidly fell, and by the [time this app is accepted], the entirety of the Zoradeus has been taken over. The Emperor, which has been proven quite difficult to kill due to his biological semi-immortality, was subjected to perpetual torture. All other officials that once ruled with an iron fist over the regions they were assigned to by the Emperor were put in the lowest position of slaves. Resistances of Asceradii, however, still remain, posing a small problem for the Milky Way regions of Makudan territory. [b]Of note:[/b] [list] [*]The Makudan controls half a million worlds, with nearly two-fifths of the total controlled planets being uninhabitable yet colonized with habitation sites, and one fifths being terraformed. Two-fifths of the total count once belonged to the Zoradeus, which had at most 200,000, a staggering rate of expansion since the 1,000 mark made by the Zoradeus some time before the Draconian War, where they continued expansion until their downfall. [/*] [*]Technology, despite having only recently absorbing the creations of the Zoradeus, is still on par with the latter, with the exception of dark matter. This is because most ship classes and weapons of the Makudan function similarly to Asceradii-created ones, with the difference of magic being used in most Makudan weaponry. For information on the Zoradeus, see app within original thread.[/*] [*]Ticking off the Makudan can sometimes be a great mistake. If you don't want another Draconian to happen, you're better off making peace.[/*] [/list]
