This article exists in an "Observation State," meaning it exists solely within the narrative backdrop of its respective setting.

Messier 49 is a supermassive elliptical galaxy located in the Virgo B subcluster of the Virgo Cluster, 49.63 million light-years from the Milky Way galaxy. Around 49 million years ago, it was home to a powerful civilization of at least K3.1 scale referred to by observers as the Chi'zar Eternal Empire due to its continued visible presence across a great number of observational timescales. It is unknown whether the Eternal Empire exists today, or what replaced it if it does not.

Overview

The Chi'zar Eternal Empire, named for a powerful figure in the history of the Nok'Chu-Raa, would be among the most powerful empires in the Borealis Cluster were it to exist there in the present day. Assuming that the density of life in M49 is similar to that of more local galaxies, their territory likely includes the homeworlds of much more than one species. Pessimists conclude that these species are either subjugated or extinct, but it is impossible to know without much more powerful telescopic instrumentation, and the "Eternal Empire" could very well be some sort of galactic federation akin to the United Federation of Star Systems. The absence of signs of stellar engineering from the outer galaxy like increases in infrared emissions caused by dyson swarms implies that the Eternal Empire has not yet (from our perspective) reached this region of the galaxy. Observations of this unique civilization are ongoing.

 == Overview ==
+The Chi'zar Eternal Empire, named for a powerful figure in the history of the [[Nok'Chu-Raa]], would be among the most powerful empires in the [[Borealis Cluster]] were it to exist there in the present day. Assuming that the density of life in M49 is similar to that of more local galaxies, their territory likely includes the homeworlds of much more than one species. Pessimists conclude that these species are either subjugated or extinct, but it is impossible to know without much more powerful telescopic instrumentation, and the "Eternal Empire" could very well be some sort of galactic federation akin to the [[United Federation of Star Systems]]. The absence of signs of stellar engineering from the outer galaxy like increases in infrared emissions caused by dyson swarms implies that the Eternal Empire has not yet (from our perspective) reached this region of the galaxy. Observations of this unique civilization are ongoing.
-It is home to the [[Chi'zar Eternal Empire]], originating from the planet of [[Chi'karta]]. The Chi'zar have conquered hundreds if not, thousands of star systems, enslaving many races. They seem to target planets that are rich in resources. Their homeworld is located not far from the core so the outer reaches of the galaxy remain untouched by them...for now.
