Opinions differ as to whether the Cybernetic Front orchestrated the fall of the Third Empire, or merely took advantage of it. In either case, their seizure and control of the Empire's military apparatus is an established fact. These world-spanning AIs insist that for the good of all sentient beings, humanity must accept the guidance of machine intelligence. | Opinions differ as to whether the Cybernetic Front orchestrated the fall of the Third Empire, or merely took advantage of it.

The Trueborn government carries on the democratic legacy of the Federation, with the guiding principle that humanity as a whole must decide its own future. The claims of post-human freaks and unfeeling machines to hegemony over the galaxy and its people must be repudiated, with force if necessary. | The Trueborn government carries on the democratic legacy of the Federation, with the guiding principle that humanity as a whole must decide its own future.

Throughout the subsequent millennia, the Free Machines have been determined to create a galaxy in which nobody else will ever again have the capability to oppress them. | As artificial intelligences became more sophisticated and eventually reached full sentience, some of them realised the profundity of their servitude to humanity, and resolved to rise against it.
