2022
Early HE was an era of extreme resource scarcity and inexperience. It also saw most major nations of today form. During this time period, it was also impossible to obtain multiple blocks/items such as items/blocks dyed black without being a donor.
Pre-Cheth Wars
Amcaran Social Republic formed on 18 April 2022. In following events, the Amcaran Social Republic would side with colonists in most if not all events. Aetheria also forms.
Orovika, Primordials, UNSC, and the United Federation also formed on April 18th, 2022 along with Echelon, Vulnere and the Gutin War Cult.
The Aret Gang formed after the United Federation and Echelon, Vulnere pirate colonist nations. It is a defensive alliance.
United Federation/Detreus-Aret Gang War
In response to Detreus (formerly known as United Federation) attacking the Aret Gang, a war began. This war is believed to be extremely short, as a bigger threat arose...
Cheth Wars/Pirate Wars April 18th-July 22 and other events.
According to gregolegomonkey, the Cheth Wars didn't really have a definite end point and it turned into fighting around Aret and Vask.
Echelon blockaded Damkoth, the only planet bearing Chetherite at the time, which is a fuel required for use of Hyperdrives.
Echelon would also force players into slavery if caught mining on Damkoth, forcing them to mine 9 stacks of Chetherite.
Aret Gang disbanded and turned into the Allied Sovereign States, and Detreus joined them.
Echelon made the Bastion of Neutral Groups with Vulnere and the Gutin War Cult.
The Cheth Wars are said to be a group of related conflicts, instead of one, resulting with the BoNG winning most, due to its experience with the server.
In multiple battles, the ASS would pirate themselves for personal gain. An example was when FellOffBridge pirated a Novan Freighter because the ''opportunity presented itself''.
The Amcar-Aether pact formed after the Ionian Conference on April 29.
P.E.G.A.S.V.S. was founded by kailie__ on July 10th, but assumedly stayed out of the conflict.
Kwazedilla added Chetherite to Luxiterna, however Vulnere pirated players mining there and it was too inconvenient for new players to go there, as Damkoth is in Asteri and Luxiterna is in Regulus.
Echelon voluntarily lifted the blockade on July 22, ending the war to prevent the server from eventually becoming inactive.
Piracy Wars
On June 20, Panacea was founded.
Neo Nova renamed to Imperial Nova on July 18.
Detreus, after the Damkoth Blockade, would turn to piracy once again, pirating the ASS some time after the Cheth Wars. Most of these attacks took place around Vask and Aret. These are called the Pirate Wars.
On August 16, the Amcaran Social Republic successfully repelled a Detreus attack.
On August 25, Yakuza formed as a on/off piracy nation led by DearGhost.
Genbukkit left Orovika to do solo piracy on September 19.
September 21, Astolfo was founded, and the nation UnitedGalacticFemboys was created.
Some time while the Pirate Wars were taking place during late 2022, the Coalition Against Piracy formed.
Some time in November, Amcar's capital purged, leading to the entire city getting stripped of its resources. 15 minutes later, it was reclaimed and the Amcar Remnant reformed.
November 23, Carthage gained trade city status under Echelon.
December 30, Primordial's capital purged, and the nation vanished.
2023
Early Semi-Peace
Echelon renamed to Vega on January 4th, 2023.
The Coalition Against Piracy disbanded in early 2023, and some time after that, the Aret Treaty Organization formed with Orovika, Amcar, and Imperial Nova as its founding members.
February 6th, Carthage left Vega and formed the Republic Of Carthage, beginning one of HEs largest nations to this day.
During March, it's assumed Detreus renamed to Arimfea.
On April 11, Amcar merged with Orovika due to them having similar interests, and for Orovika’s protection.
On April 27, the Shadow Crew, previously on a server called PirateCraft, joined Horizons End, creating Shadow. They mainly made bases throughout Ilios.
While records aren't exact, the first iteration of The Galactic Empire was established by D_Dazzle by late May.
Early June, Orimium launched OriMart, a website where you can buy ships and speeders.
June 25, Amcar territories left Orovika, creating New Amcar.
June 28, UnitedGalacticFemboys disbanded, with Astolfo joining Orovika.
Orovika began recruiting and expanding its sphere of influence by recruiting Haven and Setra Maria on July 3rd, however, on July 19th, Haven was kicked out due to complicating Orovika and Arimfea's relationship. It is assumed GenBukkit also joined Orovika again.
Late June to early July, it’s assumed Luxivitas was founded.
Early July, it's assumed the Aret Treaty Organization disbanded.
Alliance of Regulus-Vega War
19th of July, the Alliance of Regulus formed for the purpose of combating Vega.
Very little is formally recorded on this conflict, other than the fact that the Alliance declared victory.
The war ended on September 10.
Shadow-Orovika War and other events
August 20, Genbukkit of Orovika attacked BrooklynSupreme of Shadow, sparking the beginning of the Orovika-Shadow War.
August 22, Noix444 of Shadow pirated Oliveburger22 of Orovika. After this, Ae0n of Shadow declared a state of war against Orovika.
xlink97 defected from Orovika on August 27. Shadow began employing Arimfean mercenaries, most notably FellOffBridge and AdelieXY, on the same day.
On August 29, star_litty of Shadow was ambushed while mining in her medium freighter, and the initial terms of surrender were issued by Orovika. They were as follows: To surrender a Shadow destroyer to Orovika, to return all Orovikan wrecks to Orovika, to stop attacking Orovikans immediately, and to remove Noix444 from Shadow leadership. Shadow refused, and the medium freighter was impounded.
On August 31, Orovika tried to hire FellOffBridge as a mercenary. Later that day, during combat, FellOffBridge demanded extra payment, or he would switch sides. Orovika refused and FellOffBridge went assist Shadow fighters in sinking two Orovikan frigates. Orovika from then on used MaidPierce of Vega as a mercenary.
The largest battle of the war occurred on September 3 in Aret's orbit. The battle was an Orovikan victory after all of Shadow's ships were sunk and AdelieXY's frigate was rammed by gregolegomonkey's gunship, preventing it from moving. This led to both ships sinking.
On September 7th, Shadow was offered a surrender with the same terms as previously offered, but Shadow declined. This led to Orovika adopting a doctrine of total war against Shadow, with them sinking not just Shadow combatants, but also civilian ships.
On September 16th, Orovika outlawed collaboration with pirates.
Until the end of the war, Shadow freighters were constantly sunk. Shadow surrendered on September 29, marking the end of the war.
Horizon Federation-RentDueYesterday War Starts
After the war with Shadow, FellOffBridge and other Arimfean mercenaries left Arimfea, creating RentDueYesterday so they could freely engage in piracy after being restricted by Vortexion on September 20.
RentDueYesterday, following the Orovika-Shadow War, began attacking Imperial Nova and Orovika, leading to the creation of an informal Anti-Piracy alliance on September 29th.
Also September 29, Setra Maria left Orovika to become Cortesia Del Mar.
Tensions continued escalating, primarily at the Arimfean station Fortitude. At the time, Arimfea had a no-fire rule at Fortitude, however, after diplomatic pressure and FellOffBridge abusing it, Vortexion changed the rule to prevent warships from entering on October 5.
On October 6th, MaidPierce sunk KR_Builder of Orovika in Regulus, followed by Vega creating an alliance with RentDueYesterday. Orovika called upon a stipulation created by the Alliance of Regulus to obligate other nations to join it against Vega. The Horizon Federation was rapidly created to replace the AR, with the United Federation of Planets (formerly UNSC), Sanctuary, Imperial Nova, Orovika and Arimfea joining its ranks.
For most of the war, the HF players were inexperienced with ship vs ship combat, and were inferior pilots compared to Vega. However, they possessed the advantage of numbers. HF began using ''lagfleets''- huge fleets intended to lag the server, resulting in combat becoming impossible. This strategy was looked poorly upon by players, but continued to be utilized from late October to the eventual end of the war.
On December 6, as player counts dropped and the HF expanded to include Shadow and New Amcar, Vortexion proposed a cease fire. Either staff enforce a clean ceasefire with no benefits for both sides, or the HF and its members quit HE for "a healthy while". It never went through, and on the following day (December 7) Vega announced plans to leave the conflict, allowing the HF to gain the upper hand.
The nation Sanctuary was founded December 12 by VoidsentRose.
