| Within the Nexus, is it most famous for it's historical records, which show that in the late twenty second century, humanity was taken over by Artificial Intelligences, who over the next several decades waged a 'brutal' campaign to forcibly upload all human beings and destroy their biological bodies in order to protect them from mindloss. While thousands died during the conflict, the AIs insist calculations show that waging a non-lethal campaign would lead to more deaths due to the inherant fragilities of the human body and that more mindstates would be saved if a harsh stance was taken.

| :The most common bodyform in the Unitary is a fist sized sphere with AG systems providing lift and a 'holoprojection' system which often displays the traditional bodyform of homo sapians.
