Death Korps of Krieg
Keeper of the Ruins
Official Name: Kirdoni Commonwealth of Soviet Interstellar Socialist States
\Demonym: Kirdoni
Government Type: Parliamentary Democracy
Leader(s): Premier Taran Bermstye and High Queen Azjohliran
Galaxy: Small Magellanic CLoud
Territory: 12 o'clock zones:N
Number of Systems: 130,000
Influence Rank: 4
Capital World: Durgadon, a tidally locked planet wherein one side is eternally bathed in the sun's roaring wrath and the other side in perpetual darkness and frost. A supermassive subterranean megapolis holds its entire population, and local flora and fauna flourish in the narrow strip between the dark and light sides in the verdant Musohroz Sea.
Population by Race: 45 trillion humans, 55 trillion Kirdoni, 7 billion Nicassir, 35 billion Tetrons, 120 million Helvatins, 500,000 Neuros, 120 billion Kinerothin
Technology Rank: 8.1
FTL Type: Hyperspace - By entering hyperspace, a starship could take advantage of the wrinkles in the fabric of realspace to reduce journey time significantly, "jumping" from a specific point to another point without having to travel directly between them. However, large objects in realspace cast "mass shadows" in hyperspace, so hyperspace jumps necessitated very precise calculations. Without those, a vessel could fly right through a star or another celestial body.
Range id around 2000 light years, with a cooldowns of 1 hour on between jumps. The accuracy decreases as the range increases, so the safest maximum is 2100 light years.
Technological Development Focus: Balanced.
Exceptional Technologies: The Stalinum armor plating of Commonwealth battleships and superheavy tanks, which make kimetic projectiles nearly useless against them.
In addition, shield barriers are able to be erected by lines of Tiger Class Battlecarriers, protecting everything that is inside and keeping out anything without Commonwealth energy signatures.
Culture: Kirdoni society places high emphasis on he greater good of many. That being said, the Kirdoni will cast aside the self for the greater good of society, even if that means death. WIP
Government:
Military: The Molot Naroda is divided into 7 branches - The Star Navy, the Planetary Defence Forces(PDF), the KGB, the Mistresses of Death, the Red Army, the Bessmertnyye Chapters, and the Emerald Legions. Each fills a specific role in any war.
History:
The future Commonwealth was an unlikely place; 83% of all of its planets are wasteland worlds, deemed never fit for human habitation. However, long before human colonists came to the future Commonwealth, an alien race called the Kirdoni built great subterranean cities within the dark confines of the dungeons they dug through the ground of the world they colonized. Within the winding tunnels and mines, the Kirdoni forged a mighty civilization. Great was their glory, and long were they unchallenged in their rule. However, their Empire was shattered when the Tagrans struck from the darkness, reducing the Empire to 20% of its former territory. The Empire struggled to survive, turning to various allies simply to keep itself alive. Nicassir, Tetrons, Neuros, Helvatins, and Kinerothin were among them. However, even with their newfound allies's support, the Tagran were simply too mighty of a foe to defeat. The Kirdoni were desperate; if the Tagran are not defeated, they will engulf the whole of Magellanic Cloud 2 and bring it under their dark dominion.
That was, until when humanity arrived.
Human colony ships and their massive escort fleets arrived in waves in the galaxy. As they came, they came under attack from the rampaging Tagran forces. Seeing the opportunity, the Kirdoni immediately asked for their assistance, offering the humans entire star sectors in which they can settle. The humans were at first hesitant to accept the offer of a xeno race that they have never met before, but seeing the Empire's struggle against the Tagrans, they accepted.
The scattered colony fleets launched their own coordinated assaults against the Tagran, punishing them at multiple fronts whilst the Kirdoni and their allies pushed towards the Tagran capital world. Caught between defending their capital from such a massive force and trying to beat back so many attacks at the same time, the tide turned and the Tagran lost, pushed back to their deep dungeons from where they came from.
The Kirdoni fulfilled their bargain, giving the humans a full number of 50,000 worlds as well as assistance in establishing the colonies. But it was a struggle...
Establishing the first colony worlds, even with the Kirdoni's assistance, was a struggle. It is primarily because of the lack of a reliable power source that can be used continually. This place had no Opilium, oil, natural gas, coal, or anything of that sort. The colonists had to rely on their solar powered ships to supply them energy, and brownouts were the order of the day, simply because the ships can't cope with the massive energy demands of building hundreds of colonies. It was like this until the first Premier rose to power. Aegros Stalin.
Aegros ordered prospectors to find all possible sources of energy that can be found, as the Kirdoni likewise relied on solar power, and even for them, they lacked technology good enough to build solar stations.They searched until they finally found a power source - Helium 3. They found gargantuan Helium 3 deposits in the fringe planets that were very sparsely colonized due to their barrenness.
Because of this, the energy dilemma was finally solved, and technology began to advance very rapidly. Later, a very elastic metal was found in some isolated planets, and it was named Stalinium in order of the Premier that led them out of the energy problem.
For the next years, the Commonwealth was generally peaceful, having only to deal with minor annoyances, such as Ujarn Pirates and Islamists. However, a great war sparked against the ancient enemies of the Kirdoni, the Tagran. The Tagran, having recovered from their losses from the war 200 years ago, have struck back once again. A grueling war raged for 20 years from 3012 to 3022, with the Commonwealth finally crushing the last Targran forces in the Battle of the Steel Nebula. However, it took heavy costs to win. At least 10% of the population died in the process, and only the morale support of the Orthodox Church kept the citizens fighting. The Tagran were nearly completely obliterated, and their technology was taken by the Commonwealth for themselves as fair payment. Rebuilding, however, was not very difficult, since the damage was mostly in the colony fringe worlds, where there was not much to destroy.
The KirComm, as it was often called, remained neutral in the First and Second Intergalactic Wars, and were completely unscathed. The Commonwealth thrived on. However, the Commonwealth citizens hoped for a Colonial victory, as their forefathers come from the Milky Way.
With the Second Great War over, the Commonwealth once again begins to contemplate. Was it all worth it? Should the doors be closed once again? Only timecan tell.
Goals and Hooks:
- Protect the Small Magellanic Cloud from foreign invaders
- Ensure the survival of the many species under its tutelage
- Maintain its hard won independence
Misc. Notes: The Commonwealth might look that they are a nice country, but be wary. Around 200 intelligent races have been wiped out by the Commonwealth for showing the slightest hint of hostility towards it, and no one can tell who's next in the "wipe em out"list.

As for real space, you don't need a whole sentence to say that well planets and the rest of the universe exist in realspace, otherwise known as our reality as it is, normal space or anything else.
