Foundation & Overview

The Eusan Nation was founded by the Great Revolutionary and her Daughter and fought for its independence from the Eusan Empire during the Revolution. It is now locked in a war with the Empire and seeks to conquer the planets still under the Empire's control.


War Against the Empire

With the death of the Eusan Empire's leader and founder, the Grand Empress, the Great Revolutionary and the other founders of the Nation rose up in a civil war against the Empire. Capturing Heimat from the Empire and establishing it as their capital, the Nation later colonized and began the Klimaforming of Rotfront and Leng. The Empire remained in control of Buyan, Kitezh, Vineta, and Svarog.


Battle for Vineta

There was a battle for Vineta, the homeworld of humanity. In visions of LSTR-512's Gestalt life, a bright object can be seen falling from the sky onto the blue sea. Similar events are described in the And a star fell note:

"and a great burning star fell from the sky,

and a mountain fell into the sea and the water turned to blood, and the

moon and stars and sun turned dark"

The mountains falling into the sea would explain why Vineta is an ocean world. In addition, a photo featuring Alina Seo also shows the Moon has been cracked, likely heavily changing tidal patterns.

It seems the Nation came out victorious. Indeed, in an alley in Rotfront Sektor C, a newspaper can be found that describes an imperial blockade against Vineta, implying the Empire has lost control of it. However, this victory for the Nation may have come at great costs, seemingly including the destruction of the planet's moon.


Current State of the War

The Nation, now in control of Vineta, is attempting to rebuild it. According to the above-mentioned newspaper article, diplomatic efforts with the Empire are under way but the Empire's fleet is destroying supply lines, causing the starvation of millions of Vinetans. It is not clear whether the newspaper can be trusted since the Nation practices extensive censorship and propaganda.
