The Empire expanded greatly with Eoba II and his grand expansion campaign. Things have sped up considerably since then. Cijan Anak also expanded the empire too; albeit indirectly, with the <span class="mu-i">Reconquistia</span>. With the borders of the map shrinking, it may be wise to gather what little bit of territory that is left. <span class="mu-i">Threes</span> explains.
“Currently, the only avenues for direct expansion of the Hegemony's resources are out of the bounds of our current star-cluster- into uncharted space. Most of the valuable life-yielding planets are already taken, but there could still be valuable resources out there still.”
<span class="mu-r">”What can be conquer?”</span>
“While both the Hegemony and its immediate neighbors only take up what is a fraction of the galaxy's total space; we are still hemmed in by scale and scope. Currently the only directions for expansion are out towards the Galactic Rim- though naturally these stars will have less mass and less valuable planets due to centrifugal force. We could also go into direct competition with the Consortium to gather a tiny piece of real estate- just a two-star cluster with a red giant and white dwarf. The HVS also has many planets and moons that have not yet been fully utilized, though it is not part of the empire proper, we could lend them some high-tech prospector ships and tithe a portion of anything valuable they find. Finally, we could also explore the Great Veil- a huge dark nebula that acts as our border, opposite the Esaal. We unfortunately only have the ability to secure and colonize one. Which do you choose, your Majesty?”
