Needed a fresh start since I didn't really want to stare at my old style much longer.

We're back in action!

So random thought: would it be cool if I posted some world-building fluff about the JQ universe in here?

The United Terran Republic is the economic and military union of the three primary races of the planet Terra: Humans, Elves, and Dwarves. The Republic was first founded in 2030 by the political leaders of the three races: Secretary-General Fredrick Shaw, Master Elder Sage Frein Goldwood, and House Stoneward Chief Bernhard Edmund Stoneward. The world had gone through three major wars, and sought to finally end the conflicts of then and later through unification. The Republic brought together the entire world of Terra under one banner and began to expand the republic's new economic might and prosperity though its expansion into the stars.

By 2041, FTL travel had been discovered, and paved the way for expansion via the colonization of neighboring planets. Several habitable planets were identified, and were set to be colonized. In 2047 the colonies New Belegost, Neo Berlin, Taranath Qinzorwyn, New Washington, Bhaghdural, and Second Shanghai were established on separate planets. By 2053, New Belegost prospered due to its vast deposits of precious minerals and rare earth elements in addition to its proximity to the Gareth Asteroid Belt. Taranath Qinzorwyn and New Washington prospered by 2054 due to their enormous fertile lands ripe for farming. By the end of 2058, Bhaghdural became a factory world, churning out both consumer and industrial goods at a rate unlike anything seen before. Neo Berlin became an enormous commercial and manufacturing center by mid-2059. Unfortunately, Second Shanghai failed to achieve any significant economic, industrial, or cultural significance and simply dwindled to a third rate orbital shipyard system.

In 2066, social unrest, economic downturns, and a failure of leadership in enforcing colonial law led the colonies of Bhaghdural and Shanghai into declaring independence from the UTR. Realizing that being unable to enforce the Republic’s colonial union would put further colonies at risk, the Republic began to expand its naval forces. New shipyards and factories were built at the remaining colonies, greatly boosting their economic strength. Berlin and Washington colonies expanded their infrastructure worldwide and spread to the moons. Space stations were constructed at key Lagrange points. Armed with an expanded navy, the UTR began a campaign of retaking the rebellious colonies of Bhaghdural and Shanghai. Bhaghdural acquiesced to rejoining the UTR in 2068 after extended negations following the first conflict. Shanghai, however, stubbornly refused to rejoin. After several bloody bombardments and campaigns, Shanghai colony finally rejoined the UTR in 2071 but would forever remain a fractured world and a haven for organized crime, terrorism, piracy, and corruption.
Since then, the UTR has expanded its colonies, but New Belegost, Neo Berlin, Taranath Qinzorwyn, New Washington, and Bhaghdural are considered the Core Worlds of the Republic. Although they are no longer technically colonies and are fully populated worlds, they are often referred to as colonies affectionately.

And TWWLTP is done! Sorry about the rushed ending, but I really really wanted to put this quest to bed. It was supposed to be over a year ago.

s'fine. s'fine.

More June Quest, then?

Also, I have a question about the UTR alternate universe: did the three races acknowledge each others' existence before the wars, or was there some kind of cataclysm that suddenly revealed their existences to each other, causing the wars to erupt over panic and paranoia?
>>
No. 127180 ID: b5fb67

>>127168

An excellent question! Humans, dwarves, and elves grew up together on the same planet. Much like us, they became aware of each other through eventual trade routes and exploration. Think of it like if Lord of the Rings progressed into the modern age; there were past conflicts to be sure but with the advancement of technology, the globalization of Terra culturally united the entire world for the first time.

Question: would curated suggestions be preferable to the free-form suggestion system we currently have in June Quest? I'm curious to see as sometimes I tend to stop on updates where there's little suggesting.

Multiple choice like in Enemy Quest most of the time? Yeah, knowing our options would kinda help.

We can definitely give it a try for a few updates, and see how it goes.

Absolutely. The last option should always be something like "Other" or "Suggest."

So are those races present in a way that is also canon to their respective universes?

No. 133261 ID: b5fb67

>>133259

More or less. Nearly all of these races are now spacefaring, or have the capability of FTL travel.

SERGALS! IN! SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!

Heya Keel. I'm trying to recover from wrist tendonitis, so I'm out of the drawing game for a while.

I'll try to contact you on DA if I get a chance!
