=== Timeline ===
2074 - Longshot mission departs Earth. Drawing population and resources from NATO allied nations, a massive vessel exits Earth Space and transits to the failed star 'Nefer' via a Post Human Longshot FTL drive.
2075 - Project Heliopolis begins the construction of a massive RAMA I Type Colony Cylinder.
2082 - Project Heliopolis is completed. Fabricators become of increasingly little use and are disassembled to provide specialized nanofabrication.
2095 - Project Cheyenne begins the construction of sixteen tertiary O'neill colony cylinders, to augment increasing population.
2108 - Feral Drones encountered in inner nebula. Colonial Administration Authority begins a military drive to destroy the menace.
2113 - Precursor ruins discovered on proto-planet 'Carmine', Delta Dust supplements existing production.
2141 - Posthuman Relic discovered in orbit of Nefer I, failed star and supermassive gas giant. Lengthy observation and testing ascertains that its purpose is to ignite Nefer I into a stable star. Why this has not occurred is yet unknown.
2152 - The Breakdown brings the cessation of trade. The overburdened Colonial Administration Authority collapses under its own weight. Systemic collapses lead to the destruction of infrastructure, and a state of near-anarchy as regional and municipal governments attempt to maintain control of food supplies and infrastructure bases.
2153 - The military science apparatus of the former government incorporates itself into a neo-corporate political concern known as 'Pyramid'; begins working to reorganize the civilian populace and police staggering crime rates.
2170 - Pyramid firmly entrenched as official Nefer Government. Populace once again united under one banner.
2172 - Nefer I ignites, post human ignition source shuts down. Pyramid begins disassembly and analysis. Domestic production of theta dust achieved.
2184 - Regional conflict with Tensor Industries research expeditions. Pyramid engages in corporate war.
2186 - Pyramid opens proper relations with ARROWs, contributes several older model vessels. Double-Bonded Lunar Titanium cracked.
2190 - Corporate war with Tensor ceases, Testament Treaty signed. Forced Fusion technology enters into mass use.
2194 - Inert Posthuman Relic discovered in Kuiper Belt, disassembly and analysis begun.


2195 - Pyramid launches first new wave of rimward exploratory missions since before the breakdown.

History

The colony world of Helios saw its earliest beginnings as an outpost from which to launch exploration missions into the deep rim. Situated on the world of Helios 3, nicknamed Neferti, a low gravity world lush with a complex biosphere and extensive precursor dust deposits, the colony would harvest resources to build and maintain an expansive exploration fleet, and bring the wealth of discoveries back to the Core where they could be studied and profited from.

Nefer Today

The Nefer of the modern era is a nation dedicated to a capitalist-socialistic ideal, which melds the earning of resources on a personal level with a healthy safety net available to all residents of the state. This system, while not the height of engineered efficiency such as those used by the so named Magnates, has served Nefer well over the years, and encouraged a healthy trade industry. Given that it is hard to determine where Nefer's government ends and Pyramid Industries begins, Nefer is often stereotyped as a corporate pawn- little more than an industry with a vestigial civilian sector attached. However, this perception is hardly accurate- for while Pyramid is certainly a megacorporation worthy of the name, its operations for the past two decades have largely been fueled by a supreme patriotism and a dedication to its people. Between governmental safeguards, and a healthy optimism, Pyramid has yet to become in truth what it is stereotyped as by many.

To put it simply, Pyramid is the Business of the Government. They handle Nefer's civil service and contribute heavily to its military- although by necessity the military is not under the direct authority of the Board of Directors. If roads need to be laid down, it is Pyramid that handles the work. If new hulls need to be produced, it is the Pyramid Yards that handle the order. While Nefer has plenty of local corporations that vie for contracts and work, Pyramid operates in a market that is separate- to a degree, yet still indisputably linked. Their competitors are foreign governments and star spanning megacorporation, not that new fry franchise that's popped up in Sphere 12.

Uniforms: The uniforms employed by the Nefertan military are an adaption of those used by Pyramid's exclusive military training institute, which serves as a prerequisite to actual military service. The uniforms are a blend of military service finery, as well as the more business oriented garb of Pyramid's civilian employees.

In order to allow for quick identification of roles and specialties, Pyramid assigns each department a specific colour. Those departments utilize that colour on the ties of their uniforms, indicating their specialty.

The most recent up to date Department to Colour information is as follows:

Command - Red
Science - Green
Tactical - Yellow
Medical - Blue
Civilian Authority - White/Other colours (See appendix III for details)
Unassigned - Black
