The Andromeda Galaxy, predominantly known by the Tarquin name of "Asameth," is the largest galaxy in both the Local Group, and the whole of the Borealis Cluster. Containing a massive one trillion stars to its name, and orbited by some sixteen smaller satellite galaxies; counted among them Borealis' largest member satellite galaxy of Triangulum, the galaxy acts as its own miniature galactic group of sorts in its sure immensity. Not even the combined galaxies of Borealis could reach its gargantuan size, with the galaxy accounting for near half of the Cluster's total star count.

Due to its sheer scale, the Andromeda Galaxy is host to a number of immensely powerful interstellar states, yet none have managed to lay claim to even a quarter of the whole galaxy. Regardless of this fact, Asameth's most powerful nation, the Dominion of Ever-Lasting Asameth, has been able to project near absolute-power over the intergalactic stage, with its only real rival state being that of the Lactean-native Confederacy of Borealis (CoB) based out of the nearby major galaxy of the Milky Way; the aforementioned galaxy itself serving as Borealis' second largest galactic member.

Due to its size, much of the internal galaxy's layout has remained a mystery to the intergalactic community, and even to its most powerful inhabitants. The exact number of sapient species within Andromeda is ill-understood when compared to smaller galaxies, and a full map and accounting of the stars and worlds of the galaxy has thus far been impossible by modern means.

In about 3 - 4 billion standard years into the future, the Andromeda Galaxy will meet the Milky Way in a great titanic collision. The collision between both galaxies will rip each others spiral arms apart. Eventually, the two galaxies form a single, massive elliptical galaxy often referred to by the combined name of "Milkdromeda." Although star formation is slowing down in both galaxies when compared to their galactic antiquity, the collision may trigger the formation of millions of new stars and solar systems. If any civilizations remain, they will be treated to an intergalactic light show that will last for millions of years.

Andromeda in Lactean History

Andromeda has been a focal point of many species in the Milky Way Galaxy. Being both the largest body of its native galactic group, and the nearest major spiral realm to its own, its easily observable position has made it the near unilateral goal of all Lactean intergalactic ambition by its respective native species.

Rather specifically, the Human race of planet Earth had long observed the galaxy, using it as a goal post and comparison point to map their place in the universe. Andromeda, to Human knowledge, was first thought to be a nebula (as the Great Andromeda Nebula), before Edwin Hubble discovered galaxies and their motions in 1,929 CE. When Edwin Hubble observed Andromeda and other distant objects, he realised that they weren't nebulae, they were cities of billions of stars. Since Humans began intergalactic exploration, they'd come to the realization Andromeda, and many other neighboring galaxies, were home to thousands of alien, starfaring civilizations.

Also notable in respect to Humans would be the immense similarity between themselves, and the Tarquin of Belef. Not only do the two species share many physical similarities, the two also share a similar history with one another, having evolved from worlds of similar make within a near mirrored star system layout and age. The two also rose to great prominence within their native galaxies in similar lengths of time, with both ultimately acting as the intragalactic upstart of their respective galaxies.
