Colonial era

"There was great resentment during those trying times. However, there was also great advancement and innovation, and we all must be thankful."

- Anonymous

The colonial era is the generally accepted, colloquial term used to refer to a span of years during the latter half of the twenty-sixth century. The Third Martian Uprisings of 2565 are commonly agreed upon as the opening event to the era, while the ending has long been accepted as the United Nations Space Command's intervention of the Second Great War in 2592.
