Drudari-Ternary War, also known as the Grand War, was a galactic war that lasted from 6 BF to 1 IJ. Growing quickly from a border skirmish into a true war, for both sides a state of total war emerged. The two sides threw their entire economic, industrial, and scientific capabilities behind the war effort, blurring the distinction between civilian and military resources. Though disputed by Xyn historians, the Grand War is considered the deadliest conflict in galactic history, marked by x fatalities, many of whom were civilians. It included massacres, planetary bombing, unrestricted use of bio-warfare, and the use of strategies and weapons now outlawed by the Treaty of Ravnikor.
The Grand War changed the political structure of the galaxy. The Interstellar Assembly (IA) was established to foster intergalactic co-operation and prevent future conflicts; the former enemies, the Drudari Ecumene and the United Planets became the permanent members of its Elder Council, and were joined soon after by the Cosmic Hierophancy and the Seven Bright Ones
