The 30th Centuries

Humans are banned from galactic war because their unpredictable nature, relentless resourcefulness, and willingness to exploit any advantage-ethical or otherwise-make them a destabilizing force. In previous conflicts, human tactics often escalated wars far beyond expectations, leaving planets scarred and alliances fractured. Some galactic species also fear humanity's potential to thrive in extreme conditions and rapidly adapt, which could turn even a losing battle into a victory. To maintain balance and avoid chaos, the Galactic Council decided to exclude humans entirely from interstellar warfare.
