The FPA–Imperial War was the longest, bloodiest conflict in human history, lasting nearly 160 years, from 640 UC (331 IC / 3440 CE) to 799 UC (1 NIC / 490 IC / 3599 CE). By war's end, both the Galactic Empire and the Free Planets Alliance were destroyed, and all of humanity would be united for the third time in its history under the banner of Reinhard von Lohengramm's New Galactic Empire.

History
The war between the Free Planets Alliance and the Galactic Empire began in Imperial Year 331, when the Empire first learned of the existence of the Alliance. Emperor of the Galactic Empire, Kaiser Friedrich III, dispatched an invasion fleet through the Iserlohn Corridor, under the command of Grand Duke Herbert. The Free Planets Alliance countered with a fleet of its own, led by Lin Pao. Contrary to the Kaiser's expectation, Lin Pao's fleet won an overwhelming victory. The Alliance quickly established a defensive line within the Iserlohn Corridor, and the war with the Empire soon escalated, though neither side was initially able to gain a distinct advantage over the other.
At some point, a second navigable route between the Galactic Empire and the Free Planets Alliance was discovered: the Fezzan Corridor. Little is known of early Fezzani history, but Fezzan quickly established itself as an autonomous state, outside the jurisdiction of both the Empire and the Alliance — though technically it was still a dominion of the Empire. Fezzan became an independent zone, allowing for trade and diplomacy to exist between the two nations.
