Nova Terran Empire

The Rise of the Nova Terran Empire
The Nova Terran Empire was created as a response to a massive loss in Terra’s population. Long ago Terra was ruled by many opposing governments, bickering or warring over land and resources. Realizing they were losing people appeal of exploration, and faster than light travel, the factions of Terra quickly reorganized into a one-world government hoping to reserve what was left of their population and strengthen their culture. After discussing and naming their new government, the Nova Terran Empire, they elected an emperor to help them focus their vision in a clear direction and steer away from the politics that once slowed them. The Nova Terran Empire focused on military and expansion projects, rapidly securing many star systems around their home planet.

Now with more space than they had people for, and resources abundant, the emperor enacted a new general order to halt expansion, and focus on research and terraforming. Believing other, more expansionist, governments to be acting selfishly, the Nova Terrans have fought various federations, republics, and empires to hold their own territory, this caused citizens of Terra to become xenophobic after generations of fighting outsiders. However, unlike the Azlanti Star Empire, the Nova Terran Empire does not as a whole believe any race to be lesser than themselves. Though it is true years of propaganda against alien ruled factions has pushed many citizens to be cautious of outsiders, namely non-humans.

The Nova Terran Empires is generally willing to trade resources for technology and allow aliens that apply to be citizens, the Nova Terran Empire despite all its faults and enemies is widely considered a functioning galactic power along with the Pact and Veskarium. While doing its best to remain out of the way of galactic politics, and secure its borders against those who would expand into Nova Terran territory, the empire focuses on pushing education and science to increase the quality of life of its citizens.
