The Earth Republic is the only human nation and it controls a vast proportion of the galaxy. For many years, the Republic has been plagued by corruptions, hyperinflation, and civil unrest. When a rogue military commander, General Joseph Krige, rebelled against the government and captured the capital planet, Earth, the Republic was dissolved and the human race enters an age of civil war.

As the humans destroy each other, the aliens begun to exploit the opportunity and start to occupy the border planets of the human civilization. Due to the distrust between the various warlords, they are unable to unite and face the common threats and focused on fighting amongst themselves, leaving the alien forces unopposed.
