	The one change that the Izweski made to curtail guild power was the centralisation of currency - since the origins of the guild system, individual banking guilds had minted and issued their own currencies, in a massively decentralised system. In 2212, the Izweski outlawed guilds producing their own currency, nationalising all resources for such under the Hegemonic Reserve Bank.

In 2212, the Izweski outlawed guilds producing their own currency, nationalising all resources for such under the Hegemonic Reserve Bank.

	This bank became the only institution that could mint coins, called Zikis. The bank also began issuing paper money, called Zakas. Both the steel coins and paper notes were backed by salted fish until 2251, when the currency was taken off the Fish Standard. ~~The Zaka~~ became ~~the reserve~~ currency of ~~Moghes by 2290~~, and ~~continued~~ to ~~be so until it was replaced by~~ the Biesel Standard Credit.

Both the steel coins and paper notes were backed by salted fish until 2251, when the currency was taken off the Fish Standard. After 2290, it became official currency of the Izweski Hegemony, until first contact, and the nation began to transition towards Solarian Credits as the national reserve. However, in 2463, the Hegemony adopted the Biesel Standard Credit as its reserve currency, as it was believed that it was the most stable option following the collapse of Sol. Bieselite currency remained concentrated in the hands of wealthy guildsmen and nobles, with peasants still using Ziki or operating off a barter system - though with the massive expansion of Hephaestus, the credit has rapidly become the most popular currency in the Hegemony.

	Naturally, the discovery caused shock among the Unathi population - priests and scholars secluded themselves in intense theological debate as to the spiritual nature of the aliens, nobles schemed to gain advantages from this historic event, and some called for war to prevent these mysterious visitors from invading Moghes. On the human side of things, meanwhile, the megacorporations of the Orion Spur saw an opportunity for an entirely untouched market, and rapidly began working to expand their business into Uueoa-Esa.

	The Hegemony worked carefully to keep alien contact controlled at first, only allowing visiting humans and Skrell in highly-restricted areas under heavy guard. Eventually, this was relaxed, as [[~~NanoTrasen~~]] was contracted to build the first spaceport on Moghes, in the city of Skalamar. Access to more advanced space travel allowed the fledgling colony on Ouerea to undergo a rapid boom, with humans, [[Skrell]] and Unathi mingling freely on the planet's surface.

	Trade with humanity proved a great boon for the Hegemony, granting access to advanced technology beyond the wildest dreams of even the greatest scientists of Moghes. But with this opportunity came upheaval, as many Unathi saw a chance to break free of the highly stratified society that existed prior to contact. The first [[Unathi Piracy\|Unathi space pirates]] emerged in 2417, leading to the earliest beginnings of the Izweski Navy - though it was a ramshackle force, largely dealing with decades-old Hephaestus designs purchased cheaply.

	As the colony on Ouerea grew, and alien trade further enriched the Hegemony, the Izweski sought to secure themselves as the first and only interstellar power among the Unathi. Under the reign of Hegemon S’kresti Izweski, the Hegemony’s best and brightest scientists worked with human and Skrell researchers to create the first Unathi-manufactured warp-capable ship. Named after the lead scientist on the project, the ~~IHRV~~ ''Uezwik’s Hope'' was launched in 2437, a bright beacon that would lead the Sinta’Unathi people to glory among the stars.

	However, when the time came to spool up the warp engines, a catastrophic malfunction led to the ship being ~~crushed under its own warp bubble.~~. The failure sent shockwaves through all of Moghes, with ~~massive~~ public outcry about how this experiment had led to the loss of dozens of Unathi lives - some of the brightest and most respected Moghes had, no less. ~~On the 3rd of February~~ 2438, a second attempt at ~~Warp~~ travel would prove to be successful~~, but the damages had been done, and tensions between~~ the ~~Hegemony and many increasingly hostile~~ nations of Moghes ~~rose drastically~~. The fact that the Hegemony had now access to not only Ouerea but also faster-than-light travel, while the rest of Moghes was attempting to catch up, only aggravated fears of an absolute supremacy of the Hegemony.		However, when the time came to spool up the warp engines, a catastrophic malfunction led to the ship being lost with all hands. The failure sent shockwaves through all of Moghes, with public outcry about how this experiment had led to the tragic loss of dozens of Unathi lives - some of the brightest and most respected Moghes had, no less. In January 2438, a second attempt at warp travel would prove to be successful - creating massive unrest among the independent nations of Moghes. The fact that the Hegemony had now access to not only Ouerea but also faster-than-light travel, while the rest of Moghes was attempting to catch up, only aggravated fears of an absolute supremacy of the Hegemony.

	Many of the independent nations of Moghes were horrified by this turn of events, seeing the entire Unathi way of life being turned upside down so quickly. Whether out of fear of an age of unstoppable Izweski imperialism, or out of suspicion that the humans and Skrell had deliberately sabotaged the development of the ''Uezwik’s Hope'', a grand meeting of the rulers of Moghes was called. This would become known as the Firebrand Summit, which would lead to the formation of the Traditionalist Coalition - a loose alliance of independent nations, united solely in their desire to destroy the Izweski before they came to dominate all of Moghes.

	The ancient Unathi were believed to be primarily organised into nomadic hunter-gatherer societies, largely consisting of small clans following large herds of threshbeasts across the savannahs of [[Moghes]]. The earliest signs of permanent settlement date back to around 12500 BCE, as larger clans began to migrate towards the shores of the Moghresian Sea - developing primitive forms of aquaculture and animal husbandry to sustain their settlements. This is around where the earliest signs of faith resembling modern [[~~Unathi_Religion#~~Th'akh\|Th’akh]] begin to emerge, with ancient shrines believed to be dedicated to various spirits having been unearthed by Izweski archaeologists.

	By the time the war ended, the First Hegemony was irreparably broken, fractured into dozens of smaller kingdoms. Several of these kings would call themselves Hegemons, but the title quickly fell out of use, as it spoke of ambitions of conquest. Moghes would remain divided, with no one daring to claim rulership of the world, for centuries. This period of divided kingdoms is when the modern [[~~Unathi_Religion#~~Sk'akh\|Sk’akh Church]] was formed, though the religion had existed in various forms for an uncertain amount of time prior. Fragments of ancient church records indicate that at one point, the Church ruled much of the Heartland directly, prior to an event only referred to as “The Apostate’s War”.

With a population of around twelve million and mass production of steel armor and weaponry, the Kres’ha’nor were the undisputed power of the ancient world.

	This dynasty would last for nearly five hundred years, until the reign of Hegemon Kresshi Kres’ha’nor. Hegemon Kresshi was known as a brilliant military commander, who waged highly successful wars against nations now lost to time. Mention is made in historical sources of “the conquest of the black-eyed Jazir” and “the raiders of the western shore”, but the specific nature of these peoples has been lost to time. He is recorded to have ruled from Kres’ha, a city that is frequently mentioned as the capital of the First Hegemony. The location of Kres’ha is unknown, with several claims to have found its ruins all having been disproven.

	Created in 2349, the Izweski Space Program was originally made mainly with the objective to set up and monitor a proper satellite network for GPS and communications purposes, as well as “defense assets” in the form of observation satellites. Priorities drastically in 2372 when the first unmanned, Unathi-made object landed safely on Ouerea. Beyond showing that reaching the planet was possible, the rovers’ equipment proved what many had already been assuming: Ouerea was inhabitable. From then on the ~~Izwesky~~ Space Program focused almost entirely on the possibility of colonizing this world, with massive subsidies being sent their way by the Hegemon at the time. In 2390, the first five Unathi set foot on the planet after a one-way trip, as the first inhabitants of a new world under the Hegemony’s rule.

	Life on Ouerea was hard, however, as the colonists only had Ouerea’s own resources and what little tools and materials their primitive spacecraft could carry. In order to keep the colony alive, constant flights were to be sent to Ouerea, both sending more Unathi and more resources to the burgeoning colony. This constant stream of spacecraft from Moghes to Ouerea led to a surprisingly fast development of spaceflight technology, yet the supply runs remained limited, and the Ouerean population never went over a few thousand souls prior to the First Contact.
