	Contrary to popular belief, AI is just as common in administration as in human governments; however, it serves as an official rather than an extension of one. Most Imperials are the underclass, separated by their work, strength, and prestige. Below them are those who do not share the imperial way and, according to the social materialism, are subject to whatever their superiors wish. These are often “simiservs” (sapient life created by species to serve as fodder in menial tasks), the unfortunate who are in indentured servitude, enslaved people, and animals.

			The military is intertwined with the government; citizens can choose to enlist, though many volunteer out of honor regardless. Soldiers undergo the painful process of losing their horns, though they can grow back, a mark of seniority. Strong, cunning, and brutal, it is shockingly the most familiar organization to humans.

Unification: The Triumvirate

	For centuries, people dismissed unification as improbable, yet many ancient warrior-kings tried. These near-successes stayed in the minds of long-ambitious rulers. By the 23rd century, the idea became necessary as the Mogheans began to lose standing with their colonies, even though their colonial officials descended from the very kingdoms they saw to defy. Many grew weary of the founding nations as their declining hegemony over the outer worlds slipped with every decade. Nations born outside moghes were unheard of, but the moghean nations would not let that happen. Moghes' decline would spark a war between the nations for dominance in 2208, a war that would end the disjointed kingdoms. For nearly 12 years, a series of conflicts would pit hierarchies against one another, with even old powers like Kiskas and Donai falling out of prominence. Hundreds of squabbling kingdoms would bow their heads to three powerful dynasties: the '''Zosko''', the '''Dartezi''', and the '''Ajuti'''. At first, they eyed each other, but quickly realised they were roughly equal. Seizing their chance at total unity, they would meet at the highest peak of Moghes, Koraothga, and in 2222 would “unify” their three nations under a single triumvirate.

	No notable challenge would meet their unity, as the unified banner of the '''Greater Moghean Empire''' would unfurl over the ancient regimes. The banner would not be the only new, overarching regulation; new reforms would trigger a plethora of cultural shifts. The hundreds of religions would be carefully stitched and unified under a new materialistic civil religion, one that ~~favours~~ control and makes morality ~~subjective~~ to whoever has the means to act. Not everyone would follow the Greater Empire, but it was foolish to say it didn’t hold the most influence in Moghean civil space. Its militancy would only grow as the Greater Empire got more comfortable, and superstates like the [[Confederation of Cotza \| Cotza Confederation]] would form to combat such imperialism. However, the same couldn’t be said for the non-reptilians who were unfortunate enough to share that space. As the mogheagans expanded, they encountered a handful of sapient lifeforms whose names weren't worth remembering. Given their social materialism, they were cast aside and exterminated to make way for colonisation. While some showed promise, even carrying technology equivalent to that of the 22nd century, the principle would not falter. By the 2400s, the Mogheans had colonised a long strip containing hundreds of worlds, and no other within their borders. Hollowed-out planets, grand space fortresses, and gigantic dreadnoughts became commonplace in the 2500s, and infighting remained constant throughout. Yet life would be relatively comfortable for the average peasant, if short.

	Expansion would pick up again in 2546, as bluespace became readily available for civilian use. Explorers would funnel out of the strip and into the desolate galactic south and north, using new bluespace communication to search farther than ever before. What would become known as the northern wilds began to take shape in 2550, mainly inhabited by a mix of robotic and mining companies seeking to expand research into habitation of dead worlds. The galactic south became hotly contested, as the nearest planets were thousands of light-years away. Rival superstates quickly seized habitable colonies like Jaska and Yous-nou. Greater Moghes spent much of its exploration efforts sabotaging or fighting others to assert control. Even today, this effort would be largely ineffective and would leave the border worlds hardly developed pre-contact with humanity. Success would reach the North, as Greater Moghes had secured a large planetary cluster in 2589, much more defensible than the snake planets of the south. The northern development would be a long, grueling process, as Imperial enemies would do everything they could to hamper its progress. It would finally pay off by the early 2600s, after a long series of conflicts that ended in 2633. The Northern “Mid-ring” would loom as a military threat to Greater Moghes' rivals, pushing them toward the galactic east and forcing them to take their chances near the spiral’s infinite snaking edge. This would free Greater Moghes to move south, and by the late 2600s, rather than expanding into known space, they would try to cross the spiral gap.

Moghean Domination

	As colonisation took root, the mogheans made a miraculous discovery: [[Green space]]. Kiskas scientists discovered it at the Kyessus research-and-development facility. After a major failure, the stationary drive slipped out of reality for half a millisecond, though it appeared stationary to outside observers. The device faded green, then vanished a minute later, ending up in high orbit above the planet. It proved that warp travel was possible, though replicating it would be a major undertaking. While Kiskas had hoped to keep it for themselves, it quickly became an international sensation when Paspkor ships found the slip-drive out in space. All corners of the Moghean realm would bring their smartest to crack the code, and after decades of testing, they would make the purposeful slip into greenspace in 2109. The slip-drive would send shockwaves through civilised Moghes, making extra-gadusi travel a real possibility. However, it would be far from safe, because it slips out and into incredible speeds instantly; its tidal forces and radial motion press a crew against the wall until they were paste upon reemergence. This would be discovered during the first unfortunate test flights, before a solution was found. An engineer was able to decelerate the vessel during slip travel, at the cost of their own life, and allow the rest of the crew to survive. Since the deceleration and light erratic winding happen around the drive, a manual shutdown is a death trap for anyone who does it. Alternatives were sought: robots and remote computers; however, the infinite relativistic light properties caused even small amounts of energy to spray violently, meaning that if computers weren't shut down during travel, they would detonate immediately. Deceleration had to be manual, a sacrificial offering to keep both the crew and the drive from being ripped apart by tidal forces.
