L'Kor History

History of the L'Kor is nuanced, though it follows a flow of moving from one form of government to another, with renaissance scattered in between the changing of guards. Towards the end of their history, they achieved space flight and are now on a path to conquer, though they are more likely to be conquered, instead. All that has happened is siphoned into the current L'Kor Culture.

The L'Kor began as single celled organisms, slowly crawling their way up the food chain into reptilians. The reptilian species had feathers along its body and eventually developed bony protrusions along its spine which, with some hundreds of thousand of IL (Which is half of one YE), elongated into wings that provided the ability to fly for the growing species. During the beginning of this evolution, they were animalistic and had no governance. Over the course of time, they grew bigger and bigger until they were at their current state, standing at just under seven feet tall. When just half that size, they showed signs of cognitive aptitude and neural abilities far beyond what they had developed beforehand. They were able to learn and develop in their world, Naiva and soon developed a system of government for themselves.

Feudalism developed in which some L'Kor would hold the rights to pieces of land that others would work, harvest, and scour resources from. Those that used the land would pledge allegiance to those that held the rights to the land and would give a good portion of their profits from the land to those that they pledged allegiance to.

There became a point at which the L'Kor that were pledging themselves to others revolted against this concept. The point at which this happened coincided with a shortage of food and the community at large repealed the idea of feudalism in favor for a monarchy, ruled by the L'Kor that fought the hardest against feudalism, a male named P'Dor Corvus. He created the currency system of K'Lor and set about restructuring the planet's economy and politics.

The monarchy lasted for several hundred IL, in which time the infrastructure of living and housing, buildings for industry, palaces, and schools were all built. During this time, the L'Kor themselves were not changing greatly outwardly, in appearance, but in intelligence. They were rapidly taking to the creating books and printing presses. They studied the stars, themselves, their food, their buildings; anything they could study, they did.

The monarchy crumbled when war was brought about during a bad leader's rule over the L'Kor. The different continents of Naiva broke out into strife and struggle towards one another and were no longer united. This went on for several hundred IL, in which time leadership changed hands thousands of times and conflict arose. The L'Kor were set back in their studies due to this internal conflict. They became less than capable of sustaining themselves beyond base needs being met.

Democracy was brought about in the ever-struggling political sphere of Naiva and the elections were held by ballot for the first ever publicly elected ruler of the planet. A male named D'Lor Peyo was elected and ruled for ten IL before a new leader was chosen. This continued on for several thousand IL, in which time great achievements in the sciences were brought about. The species became capable of atmospheric flight and began preparations for out of atmosphere sustained flight in the coming years.

Democracy fell apart when the leader of the continents could no longer contain the snowball effects of technological growth spurt the planet had succumb to.

Along the line, an oligarchy was secretly and underhandedly created by those that controlled the tech world of the L'Kor. These individuals hailed from the upper echelons of society and had more K'Lor than feasible for the average L'Kor.

Under the oligarchal direction, space flight was achieved and the first L'Kor to set out on probing missions came back with wild tales about species new to those that populated Naiva.

After space exploration was secured, the oligarchical heads were safe in their control of the world, but wanted to be in control of others, now, as well. They set about creating a grand military for their people to take over other planets and civilizations.
