History

Early History

Markhot's two habitable worlds were once part of the Marcon Alliance, which did not posses space travel but could reach the worlds magically. They were among the planets decimated by Lelerough during her rampage, and spent the next 600 years recovering. Cut off from the empire, the two worlds did not even know the other existed. Marcon ideology, having been the genisis of their destructions, quickly lost it's hold, and many civilizations flourished.

During this period, the two worlds did not know the other existed, and developed very different. At least one planet had determined the other was habitable and thought there might be intelligent life there, but neither had developed space travel by the time they were conquered.

During the Second Chaotic Period, the old Gudersnipe Army took control of Markhot. The conquest is generally recalled as being very bloodless, with scattered, light opposition. At the time, Markhot was ruled by various nation-states which themselves had been fighting various wars for generations. Gudersnipe united the planets and provided considerable technological advancement.
