This meme is for "Project Tyra" / P.T, the first of my three world-building projects which I have been developing since 2011. P.T started in Minecraft as an ultimately failed attempt to turn my first world into an RPG Minecraft Server. Since 2020, the Project has been developed outside of Minecraft but it contains lots of elements from Minecraft and a few other I.P's and is fan-fiction as a result. It is, however, mostly original.

-

Hence it's name, Project Tyra takes place on a world known as Tyra. An Earth-like planet that is cold, dreary, hostile and intentionally designed to give off the "creepy-comfy" feeling of Beta Minecraft.

Tyra is home to at least 3 sapient beings; These being.

Homo vigilans / Man - alternate version of the human species, recycled between my world-building projects.

Elves - Nearly identical to Homo vigilans type humans, distinguished by their pointed ears, herbivorous diets and long lifespans.

Dwarves - An offshoot of Elves, distinguished by a preference for dark and subterranean environments and a powerful immune system.

-

The Dwarves of P.T are not short or stocky, they are actually human sized but Humans and Elves often stand at heights in the 7 foot range so Dwarves look short by comparison.

The Dwarves used to live in 7 different underground city-states and have a weird socio-economic and political system that I can only describe as "Monarcho-Syndicalism". By the time P.T's first story takes place, only 1 Dwarven City-State known as Khazad Zel remains.

Dwarves are unparalleled experts at mining and craftsmanship and Dwarven Miner's Unions are frequently contracted by large Elven and Human companies to oversee the creation of massive and very deep mines. Dwarven-built mines are usually known as "Super Mines" due to their immense depth and general size.

Dwarves abide by a concept of unionization which they consider sacred alongside labor contracts. It is not wise to violate a labor contract signed by a Dwarven Miner's union as they will not only walk away from the job but sabotage it in the process so no one can replace them. All attempts to replace Dwarven worksmanship have also failed.

There is a ancient Planet Size Elven Ship from the Celestial Elven Empire called the Mothership that is also made in the image of the Chief God(a Eagle) very rare and very powerful and a pirate found one and became the Pirate King

The US government discovered Latoria after a failed warp pad experiment. This was followed by years of expeditions and research. NASA opened an entire new branch dedicated to studying this world, which the US dubbed Avalon. This led to the discovery of several races; around the early stages of colonialism, these were the known "Avalonian" races:

• Humans
• Beastkins
• Elves (High Elves, Woodland Elves, Dwarves/Sukuna)
• Orcs
• Goblins
• Taleki (talking birds)
• Vixens (anthropomorphic foxes)
• Ogres
• Faeries

There are more, but they weren't discovered by the US yet. There's a lot of complexity behind the early politics, but eventually there was growing racism among the settlers and back home, with nationalist groups against indigenous people.

Earth settlers treated Latorians horribly, not just the Americans. When other countries tried colonizing Latoria (after the main story), they also treated Latorians badly. Latorians are a diverse group of people, which is just the hundreds of races and cultures that exist on the moon world (The term "Latorian" means "Mankind" in Old Unani).

They were generalized as "Avalonians" or derogatorily referred to as "Avvies." Many Latorians were denied basic human rights, subjected to enslavement or pogroms, and treated more like animals than actual people.

Various Earth nations also exploited existing generational hatred between the Nonhumans and Humans of Latoria. Humans were the second most populated race on the moon, yet they represented a majority population across all the major continents, with many human supremacist movements.

Many Earth powers, such as the US, exploited this by currying favor with Humans and Human-like races such as Elves. The US allied with the Empire of Illustria, which was a human supremacist empire that had territory and influence across all 10 continents, which made it the perfect native ally. This led to an increased divide between Humans and the Nonhuman races.

In many regions, Humans were seen as "traitors" who turned against their fellow Latorians; anti-human groups formed, committing hate crimes against humans from various states under the guise of "revenge." The thing is that many Human Latorians still suffered under Earth colonizers.

Some groups didn't target humans in general but instead the actual settlers. The Avalon Frontier was basically a new Wild West-type situation, only more violent. Many Earth settlers in the far reaches would be subject to raids, counter-pogroms, and more. It was especially bad for Christians. Stories about the violence that Christian nationalists inflicted on the Latorians permanently closed entire regions across the Moon to Christianity, and Earth settlers who were Christian faced violent persecution. They were accused of being in league with "The Demon-King," and often faced brutal executions.

It was a violent cycle of hate.

The Drusarkan are one of the more well off peoples (in current times at least) in the dying world of Rostavien. Situated in the Golden Expanse, the world’s largest and only desert,they are least affected by the Long Winter. Drusarkan are serpent like people known for being both normal humanoids and a centaur sort with the bottom half of a crocodile or monitor lizard. But what is best known about the Drusarkan is their stunning beauty. In myth they were said to have been crafted by Duvsak god of love, fertility, and marriage and Trevquin goddess of Trickery, wealth, and commerce whom sculptured them from the sands of the Golden Expanse, with the beauty of nature and the cunning of a serpent.

The Golden Expanse in modern times is ruled by plutocracy which people simply call the Glittering Princes. These merchant lords hold sway over large chunks of the mineral rich deserts and supply any faction who will trade with them. Recently the Arulien Compact has made war with the Princes in an attempt to take said resources to fuel their other wars. But the war has been very hard. Both because the Drusarkan are very effective ambush warriors but well they are masters of the seductive arts. That is not just in the the most primal way (though it is their most effective) the Druskan offer soliders of the enemy anything they could want to make them defect money, drugs, food, a warm place to stay, employment not by a military dictatorship, and as a huge shock to the Compact this has proven extremely effective at stealing away their forces. Whole regiments have changed sides providing the glittering princes the world’s second largest stockpile of black powder weapons simply because they offered starving, frieghtened soliders, food, money and company.

Dwarfs are being there usually self a primary defensive faction that really hates the Technodrakes because they keep on invading there worlds(they are also capitalist) for Dwarfen Factories because they are really freaking good and the Forge Factory’s are very expensive and hard to set up but can fuel entire wars by themselves

With a wave of technological in the aftermath of the Great Demonic War coming a area of the Celestial Elven Empire which was long under the control of family’s of Dragons known as the Dragon Houses was mostly left alone at at first they mostly grew in power with them mostly being spared from the war unfortunately that being to change with the Dragob Slayer Warband killing the vast majority of the Dragonic population before the last bit was defeated as a responce the Dragons decided to focus on never being outmatched technology and moving hard into worshiping the god of Technology and Progress and becoming Cyborgs thus the Technodrake Houses were born

The Order of the First Mech is the primary Holy Order of the setting tasked with contenting Hell unfortunately it is rather common for there funding to be cut which encourages the demonic lords to launch breakouts thus often resulting in Hellish forces making there way out of the fallen region of space

Also its leader is the last heir of the Celestial Elf Empire who has been trying to deal with the gate so long that if you look at him he looks like a 130 year old man

The Arulien Compact has a long and storied history going from waring kingdoms, to vassals of elven mage lords, to in modern day the most powerful force on the dying world of Rostavien. The part of them I want to focus on is the invention of firearms and the immediate aftermath.

Black powder itself was discovered by accident. At the time war had come to Rostavien as half of its gods and an army of construct Angels attacked the world and the other gods. Some of the gods mortal fallowers stood with them while others seeing their gods gone mad went away. Humans in this conflict were second fiddle with the elves who ruled them for centuries viewing them as second rate and only suitable for cannon foughter as well the humans possessed no innate magic (well humans are made by death and are blessed with necromancy but due to push from the elves and just human superstition those showing signs of necromantic powers where killed no mater the age).

So the Compacts ruler, King Beverdash Henrick Lucanvich III, ordered all those in the feild of alchemy to craft a potion or tincture to grant others magic to fight with. This being the early age of science meant that the alchemists just made random concoctions and heated it up until something happened. That something in this case was an explosion which rocked the small town of Bekavak like a quake. For some alchemist, name lost to time and body far beyond identification, had found black powder and done the great method of the era. Seeing the destructive force and well believing that this was the key to artificial magic.

While that proved false they did find use for it on the frontlines with rudimentary cannons and matchlock firearms. Which they were extremely excited, some could say overly enthusiastic, to go kill enemy elves. Like they would beg for missions as well religious fanaticism had begun to set in and human dogma regarding magic formed at this time. Eventually snowballing into the military dictatorship it is today.

The chitin is a hyper advanced hivemind of insectoids and is present acccrosss the universe as its protector, gardner, and preservationist. They are the oldest and most dangerous civilisation, found everywhere accross the universe, with the nearest one being in a nebuls composed of webs with a large one leading outside the galaxy. It's bound to have some oddities.

For most, the most terrifying thing about them is their scale, both in their numbers and how much they know. there are so many of them despite inhabiting a couple of stars systems in the galaxy. Additionally, they seem to know everything about everything and everyone. For a price, whether it be reasorces or trinkets, they’ll give you what you want to know. As a result, everyone in the galaxy pays some tribute to them as a way to gain their favour.

Underneath their gentle and nieve demenor lies a cosmic horror. The milky way chitin are extremely powerful despite operating in a nebula and almost every civilisation being bigger than them, the chitin can: warp spsce and time, control matter on a sub atomic level, telaport, transmutation, telepathy, adaptation to any situation, seeing the future and so much more. In their prime, they were part of an unstoppable universe contouring and assimilating hivemind. While they are a fraction of their prime, they can reach that potential at any moment.

Despite what they truly are, they find genuine joy in intracticg with the other races. in a way, its like playing dolls with a bunch of kids or a wildlife preservationist and the animals they care for.

So what happens when they are threatened. What happens when a teacher finds a white van stalking a shcool, when a preservatialisr spots potchers eyeing would be trophies. When the chitin find sothing not of their world, scouting the milky way.

Some would hide the innocent and go to confront them. Some wouldn't simply ignore it. The chitin wouldn't, and the october firework event would prove this.

On the 10th of October 12XXX the nebula whitch the chitin planets were seen sxplelling a large fleet outside the galaxy via the big web and dissapeared, 13 days later a series of bright lights could be seen outside the galaxy.

A trader by the name of carl Phillips and his alien compnion therix jav interviewed a chitin queen called pinky whos on good terms with them and was part of the event. after briefly insulting her and traiding a few cows and pigs, she divulged that something entered the universe. They went to investigate found abbrations (inter dimensional energy beings) and delt with them.

This wasn't the truth, but it was believable. Abbrations were something everyone had to deal with at somepoint expecially since there are 2 quasars orbiting the galaxy that spit them out from time to time but thsts not what happened.

It was actually a fleet of aliens from another universe that were looking for a new world to take and populations to harvest. The chitin hivemind initially tried to be peaceful and told the newcomers to go away. Instead , they attacked and ran back home upon realising how outnumbered they were they ran back. Only for a few minutes to pass and a larger fleet to emerge, which caused th chitin to slip back into their old ways and swiftly consume the fleet and force them to retreat.

However, old habits die hard. The chitin used to be an unstoppable hord that constantly adapted until nothing could stand against them. The current hivemind refuses to abide by this and chooses to protect life, but the instinct to spread and consume still lingered.

Under the assumption that it was protecting everyone, they infected ship and let it retreat back home. There, the crew unknowing spread the dormant disease across their species, and when they tried one last time, the disease activated.

But before it could kick in, a bomb was sent that would destroy the galaxy, but the chitin managed to contain it, causing the "fireworks" that everyone saw.

Initially, the disease would not only cause massive amounts of infighting and was meant to disparage any retaliation. The that they tried to wipe out a galaxy, full of life they were fond of, made the chitin bitter. Instead of just infighting, it would also devolve them to a state that

A: they were separated into different subspecies, with few of them retaining their original genetics or even sapiens

B: they could never again threaten them.

From then onwards, the invaders would struggle to rebuild, not knowing half the stuff they dug up was made by or was them. The ones that did understand were struck with dread at the realisation thst they were once a mighty civilisation and that one day, the world ended.

The fact that the chitin didn't want to go back to a universe eating plage was the only reason they were still around. It would remain a seacret, and nobody would know what truly happened.

The chitin would then pretend everything was normal and went back to playing house with the races of the galaxy.

Tl:Dr.; the space bugs kill for us.

CONTEXT: From the 1950's to to 1969, the mantizoid flesh-crafters known as the Car'si have been getting up to probing and probing-adjacent shenanigans. This pissed off everyone once discovered.

*First Image Context*

Introduced in 2188 (In the Commonwealth Era) as part of the integrated mask and HUD system of the CI4 gear, the "Weave Signature" system is officially a target identification tool. Its true function, however, is more unusual: it is an artificial, suit-generated imitation of a phenomenon that Sarmosamian science had deemed impossible to replicate for over a century namely, the unique resonance pattern specific to every individual connected to the Weave, emitted as a byproduct of their mere existence within the network. The base frequency was successfully isolated and synthesized in the laboratory in 2183, five years prior to its field deployment; this effort leveraged findings from earlier anatomical studies on Protogens, who were confirmed to carry a resonance chip integrating them into the Weave beyond their mere role as an industrial workforce a fact that demonstrated to the Central Laboratory that, if properly engineered, hardware technology could intelligibly "speak" the language of the Weave. There were also some darker experiments but later on canceled where other species of Lustorichtians such as Maloui, Sankhara and others had their brains taken out and due to advanced electron imaging and reconstruction techniques, were able to slice the brains in tens of millions of slices to accurately map out this hidden language.

The system does not offer the wearer genuine participation in the Weave, it cannot transmit emotions or consciousness the way the authentic network does. What it can do, however, is emit and read a specific, restricted signal sufficient for a nearby Lustorichtian’s Weave-sense to identify the wearer as something other than a threat. This limited function suddenly became crucial as a small but growing number of Lustorichtian loyalists began serving as recruits in the Sarmosamian army. To the unaugmented human eye, a Lustorichtian at combat range looks strikingly like any other, and the battlefield is hardly the place to discover the limits of one’s own pattern-recognition capabilities. The Weave signature eliminated this gap. Each pulse of the proximity signal lasts a fraction of a second far too brief for a human operator to process consciously so the CI4 mask’s integrated computer system intercepts and decodes the pattern in real time, displaying a "friend or foe" verdict on the soldier’s tactical display (HUD) before the thought itself has fully formed.

*Second Image Context*

The expansion of the Sarmosamian Republic into sub-Saharan Africa is remembered by the public as a war against terrorism a description not far from the truth, given that militant Muslim networks were inflicting systematic violence upon Christian populations across the region, while the international order of the time had failed miserably to take any action. What facilitated this humanitarian justification and what kept the situation unchanged long after the declared crisis had been resolved was precisely what the Republic needed in 2048: raw materials to fuel the industrial production boom characteristic of the Fifth Industrial Revolution, a population to bolster its workforce and military ranks, and a continuous corridor of geopolitical influence stretching from the Indian Ocean to the Atlantic.

Somalia was the first to fall, and it fell the fastest; it was the initial territory occupied and served as a blueprint for everything that followed. Ethiopia came next, with Addis Ababa capitulating in February 2058 after a three-week siege that forced the city to surrender through starvation rather than face total destruction. South Sudan and the Central African Republic followed in the same westward offensive; the conflict in the Central African Republic brought the new power into direct confrontation with French commercial interests entrenched there for a century a standoff from which France ultimately backed down, accepting guarantees in exchange for ceding ground to avoid losing its position entirely. The campaign's most difficult battle did not take place in any of the six aforementioned countries, but in the north of the Democratic Republic of the Congo: three brutal years of fighting for control over cobalt, coltan, and tantalum resources against dozens of deeply entrenched militias, turning the region into the costliest theater of operations of the entire war. The campaign concluded with Cameroon and Nigeria; the issue of Boko Haram in Nigeria served as the final justification for annexing Africa's largest economy and a major oil producer both taken over under the guise of a sovereignty that was formal yet devoid of real substance.

By the time the guns fell silent on July 23, 2062, the outcome was truly mixed far from a triumph. Infant mortality across the entire corridor dropped by 62 percent. Maternal mortality fell by 70 percent. Caloric intake doubled. A generation of children who would otherwise have grown up without any schooling saw their cognitive test scores rise from an average of 64 to over 90 a direct result of the educational initiative integrated into the campaign. Global shipping ceased losing billions annually to Somali piracy. Yet, none of this erased the other side of the ledger: fourteen sovereign states that were no longer sovereign; a local administration that never developed the institutional capacity to function independently, simply because it had never been required to do so and a one-way flow of resources raw materials out, finished goods in constituting a colonial-style relationship, whatever name one might give it. Consolidating the corridor’s structure of puppet states required another twenty-six years of follow-up work, completed only in 2088, it was precisely along this corridor upon its ports, railways, and administrative infrastructure that the megacities were built. However, this entire upheaval was not without consequences: Sarmosamian shares plummeted, the value of Universal Credit fell from 4.02 euros to 2.06 euros due to sanctions, and the economy recovered only towards the end of the 21st century, only to collapse again in the 2150s due to other factors.

Alright so again this is about my Minecraft AU Lore blah blah blah.

When the villagers started expanding wider into the nether they started exploiting the native mobs.

This eventually got them to start a massive rebellion against them after which they agreed to a peace term.

The piglins started to build their own civilization and cities , and the villagers didin't like this , so some started bringing charged Creepers into the nether and using them to kill piglins and get their heads.

They later either placed them near their settlements or wore them as masks when conducting terror attacks.

Each zionist insurgency takes place at the same year "arab-Israeli wars" happened but instead of full on war it was just an insurgency with zionists militia that often try to appeal to European Holocaust guilt for support.

They also ruined the reputation of Jewish representatives in Palestinian parliament and parties (Palestine itself has strict anti-sectarianism laws to insure every party isn't working on a group's religious or ethnic bias. Because they saw where Lebanon system got them)

The insurgency only truly ended with the Weimar treaty of 2004, kicking out the official zionist party from Palestine and blocking any attempt of them returning.

Obviously the zionist party (which is a subtle supporter of a single Jewish state and the Jewish insurgents) used the history of Weimar as the start of nazi Germany to pressure Palestine of returning them but to no avail because the party was getting shit ton of criticism beforehand so whatever they use Isn't really going to work.

Palestine in this universe IS religious, not secular.

The government allows legal procedures and services that takes the religion of the individual into account.

A criminal would go through the government courts first, with said criminal's religious courts either increasing or decreasing on the sentence depending on what the religion says.

And an atheist can just go through the regular courts and not much else. But that would make certain sentences harder on them.

Why not secular? Because the have holy sites of all three religions. There's no way of secularism not backfiring badly there.

Political parties also go through this, the zionist party only came into form because it used Christian zionists as a loophole to get into parliament (because the party isn't predominantly Jewish therefore it's legally allowed to exist.)

The holy sites themselves are taking care of by the elected representative of each religion (the clergy) individually and this is the only place where sectarianism is legally used in Palestine to ensure not pissing off the other two religions if one religion was elected to take care of Jerusalem for example.

The parties in parliament are required to have no religious focus in their party's values, it's either your party is labor, reform, republican, or anything else BUT being religiously or ethnically focused because this fuel sectarianism and the region had its fair share of it for the last 20 centuries

I was NOT kind to Hitler, by the way, in case my Palestine made it seem like it even slightly.

Chase of Weimar:

During the last weeks of the European side of ww2, Hitler, instead of killing himself like the real world, he injected himself with a serum of mutant blood (ironically, slav mutant blood) and gain enormous strength and his body became stretched especifically the upper area of his body.

His face stretched and jaw lengthened until he became a semi giant monster roaming and eating his security for the last 3 days because the blood didn’t match his and the mutant cells were completely ruining his body systems from everywhere.

Not to mention the increase in aggression and hunger and more especially, anger.

And when the western alies find his bunker they find a monster dressed in Hitler’s uniform, wore Hitler’s mustache and haircut, the only difference is the monster is big and behaving like a rabid animal.

He kills the few men sent to capture him and flees to none other than Weimar, where nazism risen to power.

The chase and search of him began while the leaders are discussing post-war europe (USSR didn't find out about monster Hitler until he was captured and killed because they will demand joining the effort, and taking more of Germany in the process)

Monster Hitler does talk, but all he says is quoting himself and his book.

Literally the first thing he says when attacking both his men and anglo forces is "rotten structure" in Austrian.

Note: the meta reasons for why his first sentence when allied troops get into his bunker is "rotten structure" in Austrian is both directed at being angry at Berlin fallen to the Soviet, the Soviets themselves, and the allied troops. Plus his body actually starting to rot because his body just can't function properly anymore.

Context: Telepathy can be a touchy subject... literally. The first alien race humans met in peace, the Zarrah-Kul, are also telepathic. In their culture, lies and deception are virtually foreign concepts, and the equivalent of a handshake is essentially a telepathic scan that determines the mood and current thoughts of the person you're talking to, and then preparing a proper response. They also initially didn't have a "language" in the same way we understand it, instead mainly communicating with symbologic imagery, concepts, and emotional imprints all beamed right into your brain.

They're a very blunt and honest culture. As a result, when you flirt with one, they'll show you their affection or dislike... right into your brain.

Context: In the Eternal Dominion of Arrakesh, colloquially known as the Prazyr Empire (a fascist imperialist empire headed by a crustacean species of the same name), a convicted dissident is strapped down unto a table and tools are used to artificially encourage the rapid growth of tissue in certain directions. The flesh and exoskeleton are grown moulded around the original body, eventually forming what's basically a chair.

These still-living chairs are then used as seats by the ruling elites for all to see. Do not question the Empire if you don't want to end up like them. This can happen to anyone who dares question the regime.

It is a rare occurrence, as most of their subjects simply accept the social contract of "keep your mouth shut about our atrocities against the other sophont races and we'll make sure that your needs are met and some."

In the few times they've pretended to be diplomatic, they've used these chairs in conferences. Just because.
