<Snipped quote by JFK>

Many of them would actually still be in fighting ages. Kiellar age isn't directly linear to human aging (this is to give them the steotypical affectations of a long-lived elf without making them exceptionally long-lived). 

The political upheaval is as a result of the death of a factionalized military government with instituionalized slavery that ruled over diverse space slowly breaking (and later quite violently shattering) under the strain following a very close existential war.

My version of the events only has the full blown warlord period going on for 30 to 40 years at IC start (if not less) unless, of course, DB would like to countermand me here.

I wouldn't say Kiellar themselves are especially fractious with each other, but the legacy of the All-Kiellar Republic and later the Command is certainly one of violence. The culture is usually of a militant bend, but not always expansionist in character.
