EVE, I’m such a miner

"Elder War?"

"Wasn't that the war between the Amarr and the Minmatar? And it was a long time ago."

"Does this have anything to do with hibernators not using shields?"

Hearing these questions, Li Yi smiled and began to explain the process of war elders.

Everything starts with the conflict between Emma and Minmatar.

In fact, after the collapse of the second empire of the early Hibernators, three races began their respective rises.

That's Amarr, Gallente, Minmatar.

The Amarrs, through researching various ruins, accumulated enough resources and technology, and then began to build their own star gate and began their own colonial era, which was a large-scale colonization.

The Gallente and the Caldari were originally one family. They all originated from the same galaxy. They were one in the beginning. The Gallente and the Caldari discovered the technology of jumping star gates almost at the same time. But they were not as lucky as the Amarrians.

They could only extract some scattered fragments from it, and could not build a star gate at all, but this gave them the opportunity to refine many theories on jumping star gates.

With the help of these theories, they eventually independently developed their own stargate technology, and after Emma, ​​they also began the pace of interstellar colonization.

However, they are different from the Amarr. The Amarr only colonize one galaxy at a time and keep that galaxy firmly in the hands of the Empire. However, the colonization of the Gallente and Caldari began to colonize on a large scale because they lagged behind the Amarr. , therefore, has less control over those colonized systems than Amarr.

Later, a war broke out between Gallente and Caldari. Caldari became independent from the Gallente Federation and established the United Caldari State. It was this large-scale colonization that gave Caldari independence. Opportunity.

The Minmatar people are different. They were the first race to discover star gates. In orbit near Matar, they discovered an ancient star gate that could operate. This allowed them to enter the space age at the earliest and be able to Free passage among the three constellations near Matar.

However, as a result, they did not invest their energy in the development of star gates. Their star gate technology was the most backward. Instead, they conceived a stellar acceleration orbit device for interstellar transportation.

This research work was not really completed and came to an abrupt end with the invasion of the Amarr Empire.

Because the Minmatar do not have their own independent stargate technology, although they are the first race to enter the space age, the number of galaxies they control cannot be compared with the Amarr Empire, which colonizes with the help of stargates.

With the support of huge resource advantages, the Amarr Empire defeated the Minmatar. Although the Minmatar resisted, they failed in front of the Amarr Empire.

In the end, the Minmatar became slaves of the Amarr Empire and were forced to accept the servitude of the Amarr Empire. Because of their control of the huge Minmatar race, the Amarr Empire became the most powerful empire.

The Amarr Empire thought they were invincible until they invaded the Gallente Federation, and then the Amarr Empire suffered an unprecedented defeat.

At that time, the Gallente Federation had not yet split from the Caldari.

This incident made the Minmatar realize that the Amarr Empire was not invincible, and they began to show signs of resistance.

The Amarr Empire encountered the Third Empire of Jupiter, and a war broke out with Jupiter. The Amarr Empire once again ended in a disastrous defeat, which further strengthened the Minmatar's sense of resistance.

They seized the opportunity of the decline of the Amarr Empire, overthrew the rule of the Amarr Empire in one fell swoop, and re-established their homeland.

This is also the reason why the Amarr Empire previously supported Sasha's research. They believed that Sasha's research would help them better control these Minmatar slaves.

However, Sasha was eventually attacked by a fleet led by the Gallente Federation. In order to ensure its reputation, the Amarr Empire also participated in the attack, and was the hardest hit among them.

Although the Minmatars have become independent, one-third of the population is still enslaved by the Amarr Empire, and some are even in the Gallente Federation.

The Gallente Federation, in order to fight against the powerful Amarr Empire, provided a lot of support to the Minmatar and was the main sponsor of the Minmatar War of Independence. Therefore, the Gallente Federation is currently basically in conflict with the Minmatar. You become an alliance.

The Amarr Empire also began to respond to the Gallente Federation's actions. The Amarr Empire funded Caldari's war of independence, allowing Caldari to successfully split from the Gallente Federation.

The Amarr-Caldari form an alliance to fight against the Gallente-Minmatar alliance.

After independence, the Minmatar also obtained the technology to build star gates from the Gallente Federation and began to build their own star gates.

During the process of independence, the Minmatar received a large amount of funding from the Gallente Federation.

Originally, the Minmatars should have used these funds to build their own country. However, the Minmatars did not do so.

They want to free those of their kind who are still enslaved by the Amarr Empire.

So, they used the funds provided by the Gallente Federation to build three fleets.

Since Minmatar is a country with a tribal federal system, and the supreme rulers of those tribes are called elders, these three fleets are named "Elder Fleets".

After the independence of the Minmatar, the new ambassador, Kaitan Young, attended a meeting of the Concordat Jointly established by Jupiter's Third Reich. This was the first time the Minmatar had attended such a meeting.

At the meeting, the Minmatar strongly criticized the Amarr Empire, but was strongly rebutted by the Amarr Empire, and the ambassador was expelled from the meeting.

The Prime Minister of the Minmatars was very disappointed with the ambassador and believed that the Ambassador had brought shame on the Minmatars. After all, the Prime Minister wanted to repair the relationship between the Minmatars and the Amarr.

However, the ambassador's actions were appreciated by the elders, who were the leaders of Minmatar in the old era. They had higher prestige in their own territory than the Prime Minister.

They brought the ambassador to the Great Wilderness Starfield and showed the ambassador their preparations, three carefully built "Elder Fleets."

The value of one of these three fleets is more than the total production value of Minmatar in several years, let alone three.

These are the funds of the Gallente Federation, which were originally used to aid the construction of Minmatar, but were used to build these three fleets.

These elders told the ambassador that they planned to use these three fleets to attack the Amarr Empire and liberate the Minmatar slaves.

The new Minmatar territory is in great chaos. The Prime Minister has no authority because she always wants to get back on good terms with the Amarr, while the Speaker demands to be tough on the Amarr Empire.

The Speaker is from the Elders' faction. Under such circumstances, the pirate organization and the Angel Enterprise Consortium also intervened. They announced the autonomy of the Skalkern Galaxy and was managed by the Angel Group. The Angel Group and the Elders had colluded in advance to pass a plan. A series of measures have destroyed the Prime Minister's prestige.

At this time, the Amarr Empire also intervened. At that time, Amarr's regent and palace minister Karthos bribed a large number of Minmatar MPs and Prime Ministers to rebel, and on the other hand, bribed assassins to assassinate the Minmatar. ambassador.

But the assassin's attempt failed, and the ambassador sided with the elder.

In this way, a fleet of elders ignored the counter-induction device of the Consolidation Department and forcibly entered the Yula system, the headquarters of the Consolidation Department.

The leader was the Minmatar ambassador, Kaitan Yang.

So the Elder War broke out.
