when the wormhole that connected the Earth and New Eden colonies closed, the colonial branch of Earth's government didn't collapse. Surrounded by tribal colonists who wanted their independence, EarthGov had a choice: either be destroyed or go into hiding. They retreated to a remote sector on the fringes of new Eden. It wasn't long before they began to run low on resources. So the strong were forced to prey on the weak: cannibalism. The taste of human flesh eventually drove them insane. So, there they are, the remnant of a great empire, as mad as humanly possible.Then suddenly, they are rediscovered by a Gallente recon unit sent by a prominent corporation to secure the planet for they're corporation. The unit was nearly overwhelmed and was forced to retreat. The planet was promptly blacklisted and quarantined. Fast forward to the current day. A high ranking Gallente official is reviewing cases. He stumbles upon a particular file which catches his interest. The title reads "Planet: CLASSIFIED. contracted by: CLASSIFIED. Forces nearly killed. OPFOR believed to be former officials and agents of EarthGov" Interested, the Gallente official decides to investigate. Once there, he stumbles upon a settlement of harmless looking children. They embrace him, for they sense something...something they've sensed their whole lives. Then, the grown men and women of the settlement emerge, weapons drawn.
They don't shoot.
They know exactly why he came.
He raises his arms and says, loudly,
"All i ask of you is your utmost loyalty to the flag, and the soil of the Earth from which we as a species sprung! I will help you reclaim all that is rightfully yours!"
And thus, The saga begins... |

Hell, even the Jove, who continued advancing even after the collapse, likely don't remember Earth, it's been over 14,000 years since the EVE gate disaster. (Current year is YC 115, or 23351 AD) I can appreciate people wanting to immerse themselves in the rich universe CCP created, but please actually read the EVE history before doing your writing. TL;DR
I made a corp named EarthGov, and yea, i read the lore. I just thought it would be kind of awesome if by some chance Earth's government rose up and started killing stuff |

Thats where i live!" and then join.

Jove did not fall during the Dark Age but maintained the technological standard of the Home Galaxy same with the others like them. Sleepers are just Jovians who attempted to use cybernetics to cure their genetic plague.
In my story, earth's government doesn't exactly fall. About over half of them went insane due to eating human flesh. Remember this is earth's government. Those still loyal to them fled alongside them, meaning there could be millions of them, waiting within the ranks of every faction, waiting for the chance to regroup with the core of EarthGov, which was forced to hide on this planet in the story. As for the main EarthGov settlement being technologically on par with the empires, I never said they were. They were bound to have a couple rusty m16's layin around |
