EVE Online has a rich and expansive lore that spans thousands of years, blending science fiction, political intrigue, and deep world-building. Heres an overview of the key elements: The Origins of Humanity in EVE Earth (Old Earth): Humanity originates from Earth but faced overpopulation and resource scarcity. The EVE Gate: A natural wormhole discovered near Earth allowed colonization of New Eden, a distant cluster of star systems. The Collapse (8,000 years ago): The EVE Gate collapsed catastrophically, stranding colonies in New Eden. Most lost advanced technology and regressed into primitive societies. The Four Major Empires After millennia of rebuilding, four major empires emerged in New Eden: A. Amarr Empire Government: Theocratic monarchy ruled by the Amarr Emperor. Culture: Religious zealots who practice slavery ("The Holders" enslave "The Minmatar"). Technology: Focus on energy weapons (lasers) and heavy armor. B. Caldari State Government: Corporate oligarchy ruled by megacorporations. Culture: Ruthless capitalism, efficiency-driven. Technology: Missile-focused ships and shield tanking. C. Gallente Federation Government: Democratic republic with corporate influence. Culture: Liberal, multicultural, but prone to corruption. Technology: Hybrid weapons (blasters/railguns) and drone warfare. D. Minmatar Republic Government: Tribal council-based democracy. Culture: Former slaves of the Amarr, now fiercely independent. Technology: Fast, versatile ships with projectile weapons. Other Factions & Powers Jove Empire: A mysterious, hyper-advanced civilization that withdrew from known space. Sanshas Nation: A rogue faction led by Sansha Kuvakei, using mind-controlled slaves. The Triglavians: Extra-dimensional invaders from Abyssal Deadspace. The Drifters: Ancient AI remnants tied to the Sleepers (pre-Collapse humans). Pirate Factions: Blood Raiders (Amarr extremists), Guristas (Caldari outlaws), Angel Cartel, etc. Key Historical Events The Empyrean Age (YC 105): A Gallente-Amarr cold war nearly escalates into full conflict. The Elder War (YC 115): The Drifters and Triglavians become major threats. The Invasion of Pochven (YC 121): Triglavians conquer a region of space, reshaping politics. Player-Driven Lore Since EVE Online is a sandbox, major player actions shape history: The Great Wars (e.g., Burn Jita, the Fountain War): Massive player battles influence the games economy and politics. Alliances & Nullsec Empires: Groups like Goonswarm, Pandemic Legion, and TEST Alliance have created their own lore through conquests and betrayals. The Future of New Eden The lore evolves with expansions ("The Empyrean Age," "The Triglavian Invasion," etc.), and player actions continue to shape the universe.

Great raids, some bugs

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
