Name of Faction: Lazuli Imperium
History:
"Primitve creatures, unworthy of their lives. The Gods instruct us to end their lives!"- Unknown Yuuzhan Vong
Prior to the Yuuzhan Vong invasion the Lazuli Imperium was merely a single planet faction devoted to ending the civil war on the planet Lapis... This changed when the Yuuzhan Vong invaded. Though the Vong hoped for a swift and quick victory against the primitve Lapis they were pushed offworld several times, the Lazuli technology although primitve was proving to be a match for the Yuuzhan Vong. Under normal circumstances the Vong would have merely wiped the planet of life, or obliterated the planet itself. However they knew this would attract the attention of the nearby Chiss- who they were atempting to launch a sneak attack on.
"The Vong gave us their technology, and then lost their war... I think we're the only ones that didn't lose anything."- Lazuli Soldier
Although the Yuuzhan Vong attack force at Lapis was weak comapred to what they could have brought, the Lazuli considered themselves supperior for a time. it wasn't until the Yuuzhan Vong revealed their numbers, whilst also proposing an alliance, that the Lazuli soon came to understand their position... Of course, the Vong lost their war with the Galaxy and the Lazuli remained oblivious to the existance of everything but themselves, the Chiss and the Vong.
"The Chiss are a threat to the existance of our species... Give me any options that don't involve war, otherwise this discussion is over."- Lazuli Queen in an argument with peace protestors.
The Chiss and the lazuli were soon re-united on Chiss territory. The Lazuli Queen, not trusting their Chiss neighbours, declared war. The entire military agreed with this action. The Yuuzhan Vong had warned the Lazuli of the Chiss, since that day the Lazuli had known what to do if they encountered them.
The war did not go well however, the Lazuli lost their military assests and the Chiss came close to locating their homeworld. Luckily they gave up their search and never did find Lapis or any of the Imperium's shipyards. This allowed them to begin anew...
