What's the story behind this nation?

Within this nation are the Firauni.

A species more closely related and tied to their Progenitor than most other spirited beings on the mortal plane, they found themselves connected to a central hub or "Egg" as they called it. The first generation of Firauni had wires from their skulls to the Egg so their Progenitor could share information with them. Basically, cheating through technology and ideas about the Universe so they start with all the tools. The reason? Their Progenitor, Drak'aern, made a finite number of Firauni souls to come into existence, and none will return to be a Firauni again. Immediately once they were disconnected, they set out to mine their planet and make a staggering population to feed into their Progenitor's will. Within 2000 years, they made it through space and met the Terrans also starting to colonize the area. After swift diplomatic action from the Terrans, the two species agreed to cooperate and brave the stark reality that neither were alone in this Universe, and thus proves there is plenty more out there that can threaten everything they had.

The Federation proved to be a formidable fashion in terms of research and defensive strategic advancement against space and biological threats against the Firauni and the Terran species. Once both species took the fruits of their labor and grew powerful, states within the species started to segregate and become self operating. The one to remember is Section 37. First based off of a joint policy for SF to operate on possible bio disasters and uprising space species, they quickly seceded into a renegade force that starved for resources.

Section 37 found a planet with a space-faring species on the outer Firauni territories and took specimens for harsh modification and hostile research. With supirior strength and blitz tactics, they bombarded their planet and found it rich with once rare elements, seemingly feeding the new species's way of communicating with the Astral plane. A quick war ensued and the new species managed to produce a force that pushed off the attack, but took extreme losses and had to remain within their condemned planet.

(How they recover from that and get in touch with the Firauni is up in the air right now, will adjust later, but the point is one of the kiddos that got experimented on got away and found a Firauni official and got to talk with him and thought that he was behind it all when in fact S37 wasnt part of the Federation and that the Federation didnt even scan that part of the Galaxy yet so they vowed to start taking down S37)

Section 37 had operatives deep within the military and the governments of both the Terrans and Firauni. The world leaders publicly announcing a new species being added to the Federation was met widely with praise at first, but S37 continued to use their insurgents to produce labels and false reports to divide the Federation into small groups fueled by hatred fear.

Nothing seemed to come forth, as there were no acting events for anyone to go off of besides the new species detesting most Terrans, but never outwordly fought. Until another experimented one took a shot at the Firauni leader at a security meeting a successful attack on Section 37's fleet. After nearly being executed by the Firauni leader, he was convinced by the new species's leader to spare his life and send him home, that he was a loyal soldier before being captured and tainted with by Section 37's experiments.

Firauni as a majority were outraged, as they had no part with a mainly Terran-based Section 37, and had zero participation with the attack on the planet. Radical groups that found their agenda as pure put forth their agents to intercept the operative on his home planet. Swift action from a Terran counter terrorist agent prevented the Firauni attack. Radical group rallies and outcries injustice, that the operatives should be killed, that no trial is necessary. The new species pressed on with a trial. Despite their high security, the operative still managed to be moved from the courtroom, but once a police response came, his blood was upon him.

Now all three species were up in arms, full of reasons to hate the other. Girgney felt that they could preserve their lost brother and give him justice. The Terrans had to protect themselves at all times as both species had the evil eye on them just because of Section 37, not to mention the underlying acts S37 agents piulled politically and economically. Firauni that were radicalized evicted everything that wasn't Firauni from their home planet and soon, their stations and ships. Those who were not radicalized kept their diversity, offering a peaceful rest stop when they could. Many others started to form fleets and speed off towards the Void, where they believed Drak'aern lived.

War broke out once the Firauni leader suffered an assassination, tilting the radical Firauni to eventually get cornered on their own planet, stuck with no colonies and no ship that could save them all. They accepted their fate and hit the button. One move and they used their planet as a bomb to destroy their adversaries. Killing off 99% of their species and a massive portion to the Terran, Section 37 and Girgney fleets.

The fleeing Firauni that had to bear the knowledge of this terrible fate chose to stop their journey and set up a colony to gather whomever is left before a final push to return to their Progenitor. The sheer hope their Dearest Mother will guide her lost children to them drives these Firauni to pray as often as possible, and is the reason behind the economy putting so much into spiritualists sending out messages with their powerful souls to draw in the lost.

This nation holds those who are left. More spill in from time to time as the Hypercom gains power and shoots its message to other stars.

Scientific advancement isnt important to a species that has it all, and only desires to go back to their Progenitor.

But even while they wait, they still face threats as they encounter the multiverse....
