One of the original colonies found by the Earth Federation, the Monarchy of Venedictum is situated in the Polaris System (430 Lightyears away from Earth). It was first colonized by the Earth Federation 'colony ship', Liberty during the year of 2221. From that point, the Monarchical Worlds (also known as the Polaris System) became a commercial and cultural capital outside Earth until 2307, when the Earth Federation fell into a civil war and was eliminated.
