Over the intervening centuries, the majority of the settlements died out. A few managed to survive and slowly began to regain their lost technology. The first of these are the people who would come to be known as the [[Jove]]. The Jove are notoriously secretive and have shared little of their history. They once inhabited the region known as [[Curse]] during their First Empire. Following the contraction of a malady known as the Jovian Disease, they abandoned the area in an attempt to escape the affliction. Roughly 3000 years ago, Miko Bour united them in a Second Empire.

At some other point, at least three other ancient civilizations rose to power. Today, they are known mainly by the artifacts and ruins they left behind, with little knowledge of what caused them to rise and eventually vanish from the cluster's landscape. They are known as the [[Sleepers]], Talocan, and Yan Jung, though the recent discovery of wormhole space has provided tantalizing clues about the fates of the Sleepers and Talocan. A fourth ancient civilization, the Takmahl, arose later as an offshoot of [[Amarr]] exiles.

Early on, the Amarr drove a sect of the Sani Sabik out from their space. These exiles traveled to the then-distant constellation of Arad and founded their own small empire. Unrestrained by Amarr religious restrictions, these people, who came to be known as the Takmahl, rose to great heights, only to apparently collapse under the weight of their religion.

The Amarr, meanwhile, slowly began exploring space, eventually coming into contact with several other surviving civilizations, beginning with the primitive Ealur in 21432 AD. They continued to expand over the centuries, encountering and conquering the Ni-Kunni a thousand years ago, then the [[Minmatar]] in 22480 AD.

In 23508, they finally discovered the [[warp|warp drive]], enabling them to expand at a much more rapid space. This enabled them to meet the [[Gallente]], [[Caldari]], and Jove within a short space of time in 23180 AD. Though the Amarr judged the Gallente too powerful to attempt to conquer, they believed the Jove to be vulnerable. They attacked the Jove in 23216 AD at the Battle of Vak'Atioth and were soundly defeated. Shortly after, the [[Minmatar]] rebelled and cast the Empire out.

The Empire spent the next several decades recovering and have adopted a more peaceful stance toward the rest of the cluster.
