The galaxy is relatively desolate compared to its parent galaxy, having only seven known intelligent species. Currently, the [[Somnar Hive]] controls over 95% of the galaxy, having taken over five of the other species in the galaxy. The last remaining intelligent species that have not been conquered are being supported by many major powers in the Florathel Galaxy and surrounds. |

Myrmidan is an irregular galaxy with a diameter of 9,100 ly. It contains 2.9 billion stars, making it about 0.03% as large as its parent galaxy. It is roughly 210,000 light-years from the Florathel Galaxy and has a population of roughly 851 trillion. |

Myrmidan is a large region found within the Matheras Arm of [[Florathel]]. This region is very desolate due to the effects of the [[Somnar Hive]], which has conquered half of the region and condemned its inhabitants to a living death. The two remaining great powers in Myrmidan are working together to drive back the Hive, never succeeding for long as the Hive keeps pushing back. The [[Corroloa Empire]] was recently consumed by the Hive, and if the other nations cannot hold it back, the galaxy is doomed. |
|||
The galaxy is littered with the remains of at least thirty once-great civilizations, some of which were devoured by the Somnar Hive and some of which fell for other reasons. The [[Providence Union]] is hypothesized to have colonized a portion of this galaxy. |

The core of the Myrmidan Galaxy is home to its as-yet-unnamed supermassive black hole, as well as many high-mass stars and star-forming regions. This is also probably where Somnar is located. Aside from these facts, this is the least well-known region in the galaxy. |

The "shell" is the region of the Myrmidan Galaxy surrounding the core, and contains such objects as the Sleeping Nebula, the largest nebula in the galaxy. Most importantly, it also contains the [[Ardaya System]], refuge of the last free species in the galaxy. |

Exurian is a relatively large globular cluster, that is unusually dense in its inner parts. Because of this, most everyone outside it who discovered it assumed that it was much smaller than it actually is, because of this extreme density gradient. However, the Exurian Union is currently constructing a relatively small Birch Planet out of the inner stars of the cluster, to concentrate its population. The outer stars are being left alone, to serve as a destination for [[Ardaya Conflicts#Project Alazar|Project Alazar]]. |

The Somnar Hive is a large hive-mind empire that has conquered most of the Myrmidan Galaxy and assimilated most of the other species in the galaxy. They have used the many ruins scattered through the galaxy to rise quite rapidly and subjugate other species. The way they assimilate species has lent them the label of one of the most hated species in the Telusian Group, and no expeditions into their territory has ever returned. What little we know about it comes from intercepted transmissions. |

Myrmidan is a large region found within the Matheras Arm of Florathel. This region is very desolate due to the effects of the Somnar Hive, which has conquered half of the region and condemned its inhabitants to a living death. The two remaining great powers in Myrmidan are working together to drive back the Hive, never succeeding for long as the Hive keeps pushing back. The Corroloa Empire was recently consumed by the Hive, and if the other nations cannot hold it back, the galaxy is doomed.
Galactic Geography
Central Myrmidan
The central portion of the Myrmidan region is home to Rayas, a supermassive black hole uniquely not found at the center of a galaxy, as well as many high-mass stars and star-forming regions. These valuable resources were controlled by the Union of Somnar before its fall to the hive and today mark the centerpiece of the Hive's power. Aside from these facts, Central Myrmidan is very mysterious and the most dangerous region in all of Florathel.
Outer Myrmidan
Outer Myrmidan primarily contains the other nations surrounding the Hive and holding it back, although half of the region is already controlled by the Somnar Hive. The largest of these nations was the Corroloa Empire before it was consumed by the hive, but its place has been taken by the Coalition of Free Systems just beyond it.
Exurian Cluster
The Exurian Cluster is a large globular cluster embedded within the galactic disk within the Myrmidan region. It is fully controlled by the Exurian Union, a nation closely allied with the United Nations of the Florathel, which has sent the vast majority of its military to help in the Ardaya Conflicts. The Exurian Union is currently constructing a relatively small Birch Planet out of the inner stars of the cluster, to concentrate its population in a well-protected location in case of a Somnar Hive incursion.
