The Galactic Empire of the Common Mind

This Empire will exist in our galaxy a million years hence, after our descendants have colonized the stars.

The chessboard base of the Imperial logo symbolizes Patternistics. The development of this field has permitted imperial scientists to dismantle and redesign space and time to their specifications, supporting a galactic infrastructure. The globe at the top signifies a mind containing the galaxy. The term Common Mind describes the oneness in identity that the founder envisioned for his Empire. According to his plan, the empire always would be headed by a mindsea, someone able to act on deep patternistic levels where world-lines and identities fuse. The mindsea would personify the empire and provide a unified time-line for historical events.

In practice, small-minded people often seized the throne to the empire's detriment, or supported rival mindseas, and history became shredded.
