The Themiclesian-Kolodorian Hyper War, also known as the Collective-Dominion War, was an armed conflict fought between the pre-historic powers of Kolodoria and Themiclesia, lasting from 23,119 to 22,899 BCE.
The root of the conflict lay in the competing ideological differences over definitions and concepts of humanity, and what constituted a human being. Themiclesian schools of thought predominantly favored the cognitive sapience view of humanity, in that any sapient being capable of recognizing, acknowledging, and adopting the social and legal customs of human civilization could be considered human. Kolodorian ideology instead favored a definition dependent on DNA; only those genetically human could be considered a human being and thus granted the rights and status of person hood. Although the two states had previously cooperated against the Neanderthal Empire in 50,000 BCE, Kolodorian efforts to drive the Neanderthal to extinction earned Themiclesian ire, resulting in a cold war between the two major powers of Septentrion.
As the Last Glacial Period came to an end beginning in 30,000 BCE, increased population growth and resource scarcity drove the two powers into direct competition, which eventually culminated in open warfare beginning in 23,119 BCE. Themiclesia invaded Casaterra, land traditionally considered the domain of Kolodoria, resulting in large scale fighting across the continent. Kolodoria responded by invaded Meridia and staging attacks in Hemithea, including strikes against Themiclesia itself. Despite occasional Kolodorian victories however the larger Themiclesian bastion of population, resources, and industry gradually wore down Kolodorian efforts. By the 229th Century BCE Kolodoria had been forced to cede much of proto-Letnia and parts of Vinya to Themiclesia, with a final campaign against the heart of Kolodoria starting in 22,951 BCE. A depleted Dominion finally surrendered in 22,899 BCE, bringing an end to the conflict.
Themiclesian victory proved to be a Pyrrhic one. Despite the efforts of the Collective, Themiclesia was unable to prevent the extinction of most other human species besides homo sapiens. Only the Nekomimi of Meridia and the Elves of Vinya survived, which gradually were assimilated into the local human population and lost much of their unique culture and physiology. Exhausted by the war and ultimately disappointed by the aftermath, the Themiclesian Grand Council elected to launch the Great De-synchronization; the elimination of all advanced civilization across Septentrion and the removal of any trace of their existence. Approximately 95% of the archaic human population of the world elected to join the Grand Council in fleeing Septentrion aboard colony ships destined for the stars, while a small number remained behind to ensure humanity's survival. Knowledge of the Hyper War, and the civilizations that fought it, was quickly lost alongside their technology and resources.
